  what if you bought two of these cards for say £50 each and my bill was £86 for example. What would happen at checkout online ? would it credit my card ?
  next question, can I use the 3v cards to pay at tescos online for shopping ?

    Does Tesco online allow you to use multiple credit cards for the same transaction? That is the snag you usually find with 3V, unless you pay them the fee to merge balances together.

  Anyone still finding any of these in West Yorkshire?

  It seems the 3v fairies have been out in Oxford! I managed to pick up 20 at lunchtime at the Oxford Magdalen Street Metro (leaving about 10), and another 10 just now at the Cowley Road Metro (leaving 6ish). Hopefully the other Oxford based HFP readers can enjoy the ones I left 🙂

  Both times the person on the checkout asked a bit about why I was buying so many. I explained that they showed up as visa debit, so avoided any credit card surcharges for paying online, and they seemed interested + happy. No problems paying with a credit card either, but the till objected when going above 300 quid’s worth so the order had to be split (as others reported). 250 in one go was fine though.

  Tescos online shopping do not accept 3v vouchers. Just found out.

  I left around 10-15 3V cards on the shelf at Tesco Burnage Lane, Manchester on Thursday afternoon.

  can anybody assist as to what you put in the checkout section online where it asks for “name on card” when paying with 3v cards ?

    I just used my own name, as you have you have to register first anyway. No problems for me.

    Just popped back to Buckingham……empty. All other cards except 3V.

  the tesco helping hand deal is back on this week, buy two 3v cards and get £5 of next weeks shopping, buy 2 more 3v cards and some other bits and bobs.

  423769, 423769 423769, sorry just cant seem to stop typing those digits

  I feel to blame for the hiding technique which i posted on HFP. now someone else in my local tesco is doing it!
  I only did this when it looked like tesco were ending the deal with 3v, but now tesco are officially stocking them, its time to stop hiding them, otherwise they wont get refilled!!

  £50 on amazon vouchers via HFP today.
