the discounts only get any good if you spend over a grand a month
and you only get the cheque once you gain £50 worth of discount
much better off to go to a decent merchants imo _________________ Decking |

wrong, you only get 5% more back if you spend over 1K pm.
All the discounts apply no matter how little you spend on the products listed.
As for a decent merchant, I need a wide and varied list of materials per month, so I cant get most things (outwith the usual online retailers, and obviously things like locks, nails, screws etc) from my local merchants is as cheap as BnQ. They also price match any prices i get offered from the other trade merchants i have cards with.
The materials are all the same trade names and specifications (cos they wouldnt price match otherwise) _________________ Go on, adopt a greyhound http://www.dgrescue.org.uk/ ..........................................................................  |

never said i got a cheque every month
..........although its only been going for 3 months now, and i have had 2 cashback cheques so far................missed out on this months by a good bit.
The system before was 5% cashback per quarter on your trade card (which is their 60 days to pay credit trade card). This has now stopped, and the trade card is only a intrest free credit trade card, with the only extra being free delivery on anything over £50. _________________ Go on, adopt a greyhound http://www.dgrescue.org.uk/ ..........................................................................  |
