Just logged into my nectar account and see that between October 6th and 12th on your fist conversion of nectar points (in this time period, not first ever) to virgin east coast vouchers you get 50% nectar points bonus paid within 28 days.
I looked at T&C's and couldn't see a limit in how much you can redeem. I got £50 (for 10,000 points) voucher which is valid till end of Jan 2018, and expect to get 5,000 points within the 28 days :-)

T&Cs say eVoucher is valid for 12 months. How did you get your voucher to expire end of Jan 2018?
Thanks

My voucher expires on 31st Jan 2018 as well, it's always approximately 12 months with these deals.

I got a voucher a couple of weeks ago and it expires on 21/7/2017. Just got another one and it's 31/1/2018
A shame the vouchers can only be used to buy Virgin East Coast advance tickets, they'd be much more useful to me if I they were available for Virgin West Coast.

I'm 99% sure they'll work for any company's tickets, as you can buy any company's tickets on any company's website and these are just e-vouchers/credit for the website?

Ah ok I stand corrected! Quite surprising.

You're right, the option to use the voucher is greyed out if you book a ticket for another train company.

Would be a real stonker of a deal if it works...£7.50 each way from London to Edinburgh :man:
They're due within 28 days of the offer ending, which I think will be the middle of next week.
