      I just contacted Tesco but no luck – they said that there is no price protection guarantee.

        On Tesco Direct website, it specifically says NO REFUND, so if you do get one, it is from Tesco’s charm offensive!
        ——-
        What happens if I purchase something and it is then reduced?

        If an item is reduced once you have purchased it then unfortunately we can not honour the new price. Items can be returned for a full refund then reordered for the reduced price. We apologise for any disappointment this may cause.

  I think they are probably inundated with refund requests at the moment.
  I paid for mine with Boost and got 2 lots of £15 of points refunded.
  Couldn’t figure out if this was good but then worked out I paid £25 worth of points for £35 worth of points and a free printer.

  Seems like the 3500 Clubcard points is now over so is there any point buying it now?

  • harry says:

    you can buy one on ebay for £40

    guess where they came from?

• Andrew says:

  With the printer is there any danger they’d refund the difference but reclaim the points?

  • Mrtibbs1999 says:

    No the points were bonus, not linked to the price.

      Although could argue they formed part of the deal being sold and do not form part of the current offer. Not like for like, etc.

  Amazon have the same 28 Day Policy for those who buy from Amazon.

    Thanks for this tip, just invoked it on a phone I bought last week and was kicking myself yesterday when I saw it had decreased in price. To confirm it was entirely painless to do!

  Surely buying it on Amex offers a one month payment protection too. I bought two in store. Should I go to Tesco or amex

  I bought a printer on Direct for store delivery but had second thoughts about picking it up after reading “Your collection will be available until Monday, 16 November 2015. If you have not collected by this date we will refund you.” in the delivery confirmation email. The bonus points have already been credited to my account, so I wondered whether they would be taken away with the automatic refund if I didn’t collect it. Does anyone know?

  But I might collect it now it turns out to be a better deal. (and face the music with OH asking why I’ve bought a printer!)

  • harry says:

    if you don’t collect it you’ll lose the points

    • Saf says:

      From experience, if you buy from Tesco Direct and return the item, you’ll keep the bonus points. They’ll only take away the standard points. However, if you buy instore, they tend to take away the standard points and any bonus points you were given (unless off course the points no longer appear on your clubcard or have been used/transferred)

      • harry says:

        15 Nov15 November 11:44

        That’s true enough but the OP here needs to actually collect the item or the points get zeroed off. If he subsequently returns it, he stands a decent chance of keeping the points.

  £60 back on my card for the printers. Not a bad way to start Saturday! Thank you.

    +1 right now 🙂

    Thanks Raffles

    now for the wife’s a/c

    • Kevin says:

      14 Nov14 November 10:20

      1 refund here as well, thanks Raffles.

      • Paul says:

        One refund here too. I called them at 8am sharp and they more than happy credit £30 (price differential) back to my amex.

        Happy Days.
