I'm not gloating. I'm just looking for reassurance that I'm right and it hasn't been devalued!
I am (since 1999!) and yes, it's double the normal - 2 points per £1 at Tesco and 1 point per £1 at filling stations. It all adds up when you've got two bathrooms to refurbish and Topps Tiles are 3x face value (so that's a 6% return on my shopping, which can't be sniffed at).
...however, at the minute, it appears Clubcard Plus accounts are suffering from the recent security breaches. Three times now I've had a call on the morning of a home delivery because my card has been declined (though it works fine in person in the shops, where I do enjoy a retro experience signing to authorize purchases).
I called Tesco Bank and they said this was a known issue though they couldn't give me any detail nor an ETA, and they did credit me pro-actively with some bonus CC points to make up for what I'd missed out on.
