News in brief:

Earn 1,200 Avios via Tesco with PayQwiq

If you live in a participating part of the country – and it has now rolled out in quite a few places – you can earn 1,200 Avios points or 1,250 Virgin Flying Club miles (ie 500 Clubcard points) by signing up to the PayQwiq app.  All you need to do is use it to make five purchases of £1 or more at Tesco before 15th January.

Full details are in this Shopper Points article today.   If you haven’t taken advantage of a PayQwiq promotion in the past, now’s your chance.

PayQwiq

25% off Heathrow Express tickets

Heathrow Express has launched a new 25% discount promotion.

It is only valid on FULL PRICE Express Class (ie standard class) single or return tickets bought via the Heathrow Express website or mobile app.  This saves you up to £9 per ticket.  Tickets must be bought, and travel completed, by 23rd December.

The Heathrow Express discount code you need is HEX25.

The offer should ‘double dip’ with the ‘£10 cashback on £50 HEX spend’ currently showing on many American Express accounts.

The offer does not work on the heathrowexpress.com/avios site which award Avios points with your booking.

    OT. I’ve been trying to transfer those free 900 Hertz points from a while ago, to Accor, but it has never gone through. Now the Accor option seems to have disappeared! Do we know if this is a permanent thing? Hope not as it’s the only reason I went through the faff!

    • Rich says:

      I’ve had exactly the same. I emailed Hertz, who say they have manually transferred them and should appear within 10 working days in my Accor account. The 900 have certainly gone from the Hertz account but no sign of them in Accor yet (but only been five days).

    I just received an email today from Tesco with an offer to receive 200 clubcard points for answering a short survey about payqwiq. Took maybe 3 minutes to complete. Not a lot but still more avios than I earn for an average short haul HBO flight!

    OT. There’s a Tesco deal on certain gift cards, no points but 20% off their value. Including Pizza Express and Monsoon.

    O/T I see IHG have sent out a ‘clarification’ email after the kerfuffle and confusion from the member update….

    We recently sent an email about changes to your member benefits that come into effect at the beginning of next year. We’ve realised that some of the details may not have been very clear, and we’re sorry if we caused any confusion. etc etc…

    Hi Rob – how does it work with a household clubcard account? Does it matter which cards are linked or is it 5 transactions on that clubcard account?

    I could in theory also set up a separate clubcard but assume it couldn’t then link to the same Avios/FC? That question might be linked to the way Clubcard linkage works itself?

  • Will says:

    Cheers Rob – will let you know how that pans out!

    Payquik seem so to sign you out if not used for a while. How daft. They pay you to try it then make it a pain to use again!
