Does this work with the visa debit you get or is it the credit card? Thanks
mchu6am4 to nefertiti6969

It'll be credit card I would imagine

You imagined wrongly. :stuck_out_tongue:
I only have a FD Visa debit card and that's what I registered.

I've just signed up and will use the Esso £5 off £40.A few Tesco Express shops are connected with an Esso station, so an option to buy giftcards.
£10 off a £40 spend at Lidl too. Stock up on booze. ;-)

Surely the billing then is tesco not esso?
Anyone else think the op would be more useful if they mentioned the retailler for each offer?!

No, it will be Esso. I've done this in the past when Amex had a similar offer - £10 off a £50 spend. Once it was £5 back, but unlimited and I bought a few B&Q giftcards. Used via a trade card at B&Q. If you buy a Tesco giftcard, you can also use that for petrol purchases, but only at Tesco and not Esso, although sometimes the staff unknowingly allow it.

That would not be possible. As offers r time limited and retailers changes. This is general goody for FD customers...

Is this definitely a legit site? I've not had any email from First Direct about these offers?
premierfella to mchu6am4
31 Aug 17#8
It is legit - the lack of an email from First Direct probably just reflects the fact that these Visa Offers through them have only just started.

In an age where we are told "Banks will never ask for your details in an email" to suddenly say click this this link and enter your card number seems a little reckless.

Especially when there is no mention of it whatsoever on the First Direct website.

I can assure you it is legit. O did not get an email till this moment neither. But someone did. I knew ir is legit as same VISA offers available through Nationwide for years.

It's genuine as I spoke to FD today and they have sent some emails out to customers but not all.
mchu6am4
31 Aug 17#15
So I have a Visa Debit card and also Visa credit card from FD... Can I register both and will I get offers on both?
Edit: Just spoke to FD about some other matter but also confirmed this offer and you can register upto 5 cards including debit and credit....
Rulandas
31 Aug 17#16
You will probably be able to use the offer only once if registered on same account. I'd recommend registering cards under separate accounts.

Nationwide customers?!! Please share as I'm with them :smile:
That's very spooky - I received the email and was going to sign up a few minutes ago but backed out because I was worried it might not be legit. Thanks very much, will go ahead now! :o)

Please note that it looks like the Esso offer only refers to Esso branded stations so excludes e.g. Esso stations with Tesco Express. Look at the map of nearest stations under the offer subpage.

If you register 3-4 cards on one acc would you get cash back for all of them. Because they are all registered?
Rulandas to super75
1 Sep 17#35
You will probably be able to use the offer only once. unless stated otherwise. That is why you need separate accounts for each card.
Proj to Rulandas
27 Sep 17#53
I can see visa offers page clearly says offer available on all registered cards instead of just once per account. If later was the case then they would not let you register multiple cards with one account.

Also there is no mention of not being able to buy gift cards . So do you guys think it's ok to purchase gift cards?

Will this work with Apple Pay instead of using the physical card?
Edited to say: I couldn't find it on the terms and conditions so emailed the offer provider. I asked FD in case they had a more in depth faq list, and they said the offers wouldn't work with a 3rd party wallet. This suggests it won't work but double checking with the visa offers help, which should get back to me within 5 working days.

How long from the transaction until the credit is applied?

They usually send you an email after a couple of days to confirm the cashback and then they credit your account a couple of days later.

My Tesco Express / Esso purchase didn't work......it's worked with AMEX in the past but this Visa offer hasn't turned up. :cry:

Really? How long did you wait? They typically take 2-3 days to notify that you've successfully redeemed the cashback.

Filled up last Thursday evening, account charged Friday. I used the same card in Boots on Saturday £5 was in the account on Monday.

How odd. The Esso (Tesco) Expresses are definitely Esso branded still but perhaps some or all are not participating. I've posed the question to VISA anyway and will report back once they've replied.

Got a (useless) response from VISA:
Thank you for your query and for using first direct Visa Offers.
first direct Visa Offers are matched to your own shopping preferences and past first direct Visa card spending so that you get offers that are personalised to you. The location of your offers will be based upon the address that was provided upon registration.
If you would like to receive offers for a different address please update your first direct Visa Offers ‘My Account’ page.
Kind regards,

Complete BS as these offers are most certainly not matched!

Seems like someone did not understand your question. And im pretty sure offers r nit matched to your spending. At least to start with. Also how can they match if there was no spending. And all cards we have come with the same offers. Would be interesting thou to change registered post code and see what happens.

Has anyone else tried this at an Esso station with a Tesco Express attached to it?
I'm not sure I trust the store locations list as it is merely made up of a Google Maps search for "Esso"

Did anyone try to pay by android pay? And get the deal. Thanks

I avoid doing that as it delays the cashback

Finally got an official response from VISA:
Thank you for your query and for using HSBC Visa Offers.
We can confirm that the offer can be redeemed at all Esso branded petrol station, including the ones with Tesco Express attached to it.
Quite annoying really as I filled up an Esso which was 10p/litre dearer than the Esso with Tesco Express nearby

Just a heads up for the "stacker" massive.... u know who you are :raised_hand:
Boots today - Combine the following for some serious savings at Boots: 1) TCB for cashback 2) 20x Boots points of a £50 spend (ends today) £50 = 1000 points, i.e. £10 in reward points to spend 3) Use your HSBC/First Direct Card for £5 cashback off a £40 spend
I'm on my 8th order right now lol

27 Sep 17#54
@Proj Visa's intention is probably so you can use any of your registered cards to get the offer once. If you want multiple dips, it seems you have to register each card separately under a separate email address.
Opening post
£5 back on your next purchase of £30 or more,
£3 back on your next purchase of £8 or more,
£5 back on your next purchase of £40 or more,
£10 back on your next purchase of £40 or more,
Fragrance Direct 5% back on your next purchase,ETC
