Wow! Never had that many Clubcard points before. Looks like Tesco processes all the transfers on the same date. Of course now it's tempting to buy a few more

I have had two lots posted today.

The earliest of my transfers was 28th December which is probably before anybody else as it was before this thread started. The latest transfer date posted here is 9th January.

This would suggest probably a once a month batch transfer.

Healthy influx of CC points here too. A big thanks to 5EF for the reminder about all this.

Forgot to thank 5EF!

My Tesco CC account was updated today and I only bought my Marriott points on 12th Jan!!!! ^ ^ ^ That's a 6 day turnaround from initial purchase of Marriott points to Tesco CC, not bad at all!

A massive thanks to 5EF and as ever to Raffles for the detail on this in post #2. ^ :-:

Not a problem! I have updated Post 2 of this thread with the experiences of those of you who have done this transaction so far, together with relevant links. Newbies should start there.

I got 35000 points added to my TCC account this morning.

Transferred the MR points on 1 Jan.

(I think I'll go back and transfer some more now.)

Hurrah for us all etc. Mine there too. Can't remember when I transferred but it would have been about the same time as Smirnoff.

With a conversion process started today (and some reporting a 6 day turanround) what are the chances of hitting the Quarter End Tesco Points tally up and voucher print ??

Do we have an exact TEsco end of Q date ?
