Forums Payment cards Other payment cards Using Tesco Pay+ for HMRC (and other things)

  • 39 posts

    This may be just me being daft, but after getting and using the Tesco Clubcard Pay+ to pay for taxes in january, I hadn’t gotten any clubcard points out of the process, so I got in touch with Tesco to figure out what was up. It seems that when selecting how to pay, the only way to get the points is to use the Pay+ as a debit/credit card, rather than making a direct payment from the Tesco Bank account. Maybe this was obvious to others, but it definitely wasn’t to me. Will see if selecting to pay with a card is as easy as it was made to sound when the next tax bill comes due, and hope this could help others before the next time people pay HMRC.

    Thats how it works – you dont get points for using faster payments on Tesco – never have done

    Ok, but it’s good to see I understood what I was doing wrong, and that I should get some clubcard points from the next tax bill by using Tesco Pay+ as a debit/credit card.

    Didn’t Tesco recently block Pay+ for HMRC?

    Great thanks.
    Do you put the whole lot in one go or do little amounts to make sure it goes through
    Thanks

    Also curious on this as I’ve currently got about 100k going out to HMRC a year straight from bank account earning nada. I’d be interested in this avenue if I could easily put 10k a pop say through without Tesco flagging. Can’t be bothered (given the small amount of points at stake) if it would require many smaller amounts and fighting with Tesco
