Tesco shoppers left 'gutted' after announcement made over Clubcard points change

An announcement has been made by supermarket giant Tesco that will affect millions of Clubcard users.

Shoppers at the popular supermarket have been urged to use their delivery codes, obtained through the delivery saver scheme, by November to avoid missing out, reports Birmingham Live. An email was sent around on Tuesday, detailing changes to the delivery saver code scheme.

Currently, Delivery Saver codes are worth three times the amount of Clubcard vouchers, for those who utilise the delivery saver scheme. However, this is set to change from November 2022 onwards.

Tesco has announced to customers that there will be changes surrounding this scheme, beginning on Monday, November 14 2022. These changes could affect all 20 million users of Tesco's iconic Clubcard.

Customers are able to redeem Tesco Clubcard points that can be used to save on their deliveries. With every 50 pence in Clubcard vouchers, £1.50 can be redeemed in reward partner codes to use against the cost of any delivery plan.

There is also a choice for shoppers to pay monthly towards the delivery saver scheme. It costs either £2.49, £4.99 or £7.99, and can help customers save money on their supermarket spending, amid the cost of living crisis.

The news was spread far and wide on a popular Facebook community page, dedicated to saving money on their shopping. Some customers were less than impressed with the announcement.

One Facebook user wrote: "I got the email too.. glad I stopped using Tesco.. I always used clubcard for saver."

Another added: "Not the news I wanted!"

And a third said: "Gutted! One of the main reasons I use Tesco."

A Tesco spokesperson said: “Clubcard is how our customers get the best value from shopping with Tesco; from Clubcard Prices on thousands of products to Clubcard points on food, fuel, clothing and more in store and online.

"Our Delivery Saver plans provide great value for our customers, starting from as little as £2.49 per month for our Click & Collect plan and £3.99 per month for our cheapest home delivery plan.

"Clubcard customers will still be able to get three times the value of their vouchers on Tesco Delivery Saver plans until the 14 November."
