Martin Lewis issues one-day warning to Tesco shoppers over major clubcard change

Martin Lewis has issued a one-day warning to Tesco shoppers over a big change to its Clubcard scheme.

From Wednesday, June 14, Clubcard points will only be worth twice their value when customers cash them in, rather than three times as they are now.

However, rewards ordered up to and including June 13 will continue to be valid for one year from the date of issue.

It means customers will be able to redeem their points at triple value - but only if they cash them in today (June 13).

Posting on Twitter on Tuesday the money-saving expert wrote: "TODAY IS THE LAST DAY..." and retweeted a post from last week offering shoppers advice over the change and urging them to act 'asap'.

It said: "This Tues, 13 June, is the LAST DAY you get TRIPLE value rewards for trading in Clubcard points (e.g. £5=£15 Pizza Express, Disney+, Legoland, etc).

"From Wed it's cut to DOUBLE. So trade in at treble value asap, especially as the Rewards are then valid a year."

The popular scheme enables shoppers to collect points for money spent at Tesco and exchange them for vouchers which can be used in-store or for excursions to locations such as Pizza Express, Legoland and Alton Towers.

Announcing the change earlier this year, Tesco’s chief customer officer Alessandra Bellini said: “While we are making a change to how members can use their vouchers with our reward partners, we want to remind millions of Clubcard holders to redeem their vouchers at three times the value until June 13 so they can use their reward partner codes to give themselves and their families a well-deserved treat.

“We have extended the validity of redeemed codes at the 3x rate, so if swapped before the deadline, they will be valid for a year, instead of six months, to give customers even more time to enjoy them.”
