  Argos & Primark have disappeared from my Airtime. Just wondering if it is just me or have they gone for good? I can understand if it is just me because I have spent a lot at these 2 retailers recently.

    Gone in mine too. Maybe they no longer are available retailers on the scheme.

    I’ve had a few £5 off £30 at Argos in Sazbo’s recently.

    If you are a Union member, you might have access to an Ode card. 5% rebate every time at Argos. I’ve also got a 10% rebate on BoS and MBNA at the moment at Sazbo’s so good for Argos gift card purchases.

    Airtime put something up on Instagram saying primark was going away for a while.

  How about the Lygon Arms Hotel in Broadway?

    Drove past this hotel yesterday. Looked lovely. Very, very top-end brand-new Ferrari out the front that then drove away at about 6mph, as the old bloke driving it was clearly petrified behind the wheel 🙂

  Is google pay a “mobile wallet” or “payment aggregator” in terms of BA Amex “spent 1000 to get 1500 bonus avios” ? The former is allowed, the latter isn’t.

  • Anuj says:

    It’s a mobile wallet, secondly payment aggregators are excluded in t&cs but in reality are counted (e.g. PayPal)

      great thanks

      Is it even possible to add an Amex to Google pay? I thought the only way to use it via mobile was with their own NFC feature enabled via the app?

      • Jonathan says:

        Amex has been on Google Pay for quite a while.

        They’ve been on Google pay for a while

        But unfortunately not for a German issued one

  Does anyone know if the 100 Bonus Nectar Points for spend at Argos as part of the Count up to Christmas campaign will be backdated? It says I need to spend at Argos by 14 November which I have done but it usually takes 28 days for the points to appear in my Nectar account.

  • Super Secret Stuff says:

    My train tickets went through backdated on the day it triggered including the bonus

    • AJA says:

      My reply went into moderation. Thanks SSS. I also double dipped and got bonus Avios going to Argos via BA. 😀

  Sainsburys SmartShop – found a way to make it work on iOS (posted on AppStore reviews). Click on the cog wheel and then click on find a SmartShop store. The app then asks you for access to location data – you can allow it once and when the app starts working, you can remove the access.

  I’m in the Flagship First lounge at MIA right now…holy smokes this is a good lounge. My trip has stretched into months rather than weeks now so I’ve been cutting back on my food budget and filling up at the lounges LOL 😆.
