Marks and Spencer (M&S) has brought in an upfront £120 charge for some of its customers - for certain perks. Certain Sparks Card holders will be invited to pay the £120 charge.
M&S has added a new premium level to the Sparks scheme called "Sparks Plus". Because it is currently a trial, not everyone is able to sign up and you'll only be able to if you receive an invitation email to “become a Sparks Plus VIP!”.
To be a Sparks Plus member, you will need to pay £120 - paid upfront - each year. However, M&S says the rewards you'll be able to claim come to more than £200 a year.
