Nectar Card?

Settleddown · 25 May 2010 at 19:07

Hi just being told by a friend to get one of these and use it every time I fill the company van up, I tend to put around £120 a week so he seems to think I can accumulate a lot of points, I assume its ok to use if I pay using a company BP credit card? Also what decent stuff can you get one you receive a lot of points?

depends on your company, I work in the civil service and someone got sacked for using their points card whilst filling up government vehicles!

Just use Tesco club card 1 point for every pound spent.

Not on the Esso forecourts FWIW - shame, because I live right across the road from a Tesco Esso station

Shouldn't matter about BP as BP Petrol stations accept nectar card.

Ahhh I see!!! Hmmm maybe I should ask the folk who pay for the fuel then, seems rather silly to be getting sacked over a points card? Are you sure that was the reason?

Everybody at my company does this when using their fuel cards. I had a fuel card for 4 years and built up enough points on a tesco clubcard that i managed to re-tile 2 bathrooms in italian marble with the clubcard points by converting them into topps tiles tokens

Best deal ever, use a clubcard rather than nectar imo.

You basically get a point for every pound, and 100 points per £1 reward token, so its 1%. But when converting to other forms of vouchers on the clubcard deals website you get 4* the value, so you get 4% back.

On £120pw in fuel you would get nearly a fiver per week in rewards tokens. Thats £250 in a year. New tiles for you too coming soon :cool:

Nectar is a joke, don't bother. 500 points = £2.50 lol.

Go with Tesco points as Jez said.
