Got an email this morning to confirm my €10 cashback is on the way from a €36 spend in Lidl on the 4th.

@TheDriver I have a second card on my account, and spent another €36 in Lidl yesterday using that one, I'll let you know if I get the second cashback, but I doubt it

/edit/ Just noticed that some of the offers listed today have specific card numbers against them, my debit card, so it would seem you can only use that type of card for the offer - the Boots €5 back on a €30 spend for example

When you log into your account does the lidl offer still appear? Or does it show as redeemed. Wondering if you can use it more than once

Gone from my List, and yesterday was the last day IIRC. The did say "one purchase only", but I tried twice, with two different cards, on the one account. Once redemption of €10 is on the way, I'll post of i get the second one

Not following, is it one off, or limit one per day/week/month?

Spocker · 06-05-2017 11:56am

That's all it said "valid for one purchase only", no more detail than that - if someone else still can see a valid LIDL offer they might post the detailed T&C's

Used my credit card to purchase 50 euro diesel in topaz on Thursday evening, got my email this morning to say my 5 euro refund is on its way. Happy days.

Same topaz offer is running on permanent tsb rewards so I shall be using my tsb debit card in topaz during the week to get another 5 euro back.

10 euro saved on my fuel bill hassle free, can't complain .
Might invest my savings in booze or a lotto ticket later ðŸ€£

Tried in Firefox and Opera too, to no avail.

Activation code is live for 24 hours, so will try again tomorrow. I'm assuming it's a problem at server end.

Tried today, worked first time. Better head to Lidl soon

whiteshorts · 07-05-2017 2:23pm

Worked fine for me, best offers Lidl & Topaz so far.
All family members have an AIB card so looking forward to a nice payout as use both outlets anyway.

TheDriver · 07-05-2017 4:21pm

Boots aren't too bad either

you have to wait for the transaction to go through, and its probably still pending because of the weekend. once it posts to your account youll probably get the email, provided you met the conditions

noble00 · 07-05-2017 7:12pm

Your prob right hopefully it will go through during the week thanks

Does a visa debit card work or just a visa card?

Both debit and credit work

Pete123456 · 07-05-2017 11:33pm

provided that they are issued by VISA.

This is a Visa program in partnership with AIB

Its great that we are finally seeing some basic rewards programs in Ireland... in the UK and definitely in the US there are some great reward programs for spending on the card, such as 2% cash back with up to 5% in certain places, and airline miles etc. I would have no problem putting all my spend through one card if it meant i got a percentage back!

Any find out if this is per card or one per customer ?

errlloyd · 08-05-2017 2:53pm

I don't have any sort of notification or anything that I am getting my topaz cashback.

Just found this in the FAQ:

Q: How many times can I redeem an offer?
A: Typically the offers can only be redeemed once. Please check the terms of each offer to find out how many times it can be redeemed.

I presume the majority of offers will only be redeemable once.
Here's the fine print on one of the Lidl offers:

Terms and Conditions
To redeem this offer, you will need to spend a minimum of €35 at Lidl. Offer valid in-store for one purchase.

Otherwise, you could split €70 shopping in Lidl into two transactions of €35 and redeem 2 X €10 cash back.

sooty1 · 08-05-2017 3:51pm

But if you split the shopping into 2 lots of E35.00 you will only get 1 x E10 back unless you are using 2 seperate Visa Debit cards that are both registered for the scheme.

Even then I have a feeling that once you have used the offer with one card it will disappear for the other (if you have two AIB cards I mean).

I've just used the Lidl offer with my CC so will see if it is still available on the DC when it goes through now.

I imagine you would be ok if you have a PTSB card and an AIB card to use say the Topaz offer twice (same offer exists on both systems). It's possible that Visa will be tracking the cards by person across banks but I doubt it. I'll check that out in the next few days and report back.

TheDriver · 08-05-2017 4:26pm

I have my 2 cards registered under separate email addresses

doozerie · 08-05-2017 5:19pm

For those people getting the "Please enter a valid AIB Visa Card" response when trying to register, try changing the password you are trying to create. I initially tried with a password that had letters, numbers, and other characters/symbols in it. It failed each time across two different browsers.

I removed the characters/symbols, to use just letters and numbers, and it finally worked. Stupid of them to seemingly disallow a commonly used password format but I'm sure they "take your security very seriously" ...or similarly meaningless words to that effect

You sure, I thought they specifically mentioned that PW should have Letters/Numbers and characters.

Denisoftus · 08-05-2017 6:59pm

Being such a loyal BOI customer I'm starting to think of switching:
- no reward cards
- no Apple Pay
- no mobile app with charge notification (3-4 days lag before it appears online)
- no security tokens
- etc....

OMG, when will they upgrade?

Sorry of off topic, just can't stand it anymore.

NikoTopps · 08-05-2017 8:29pm

I registered my AIB debit with no issue&have already redemmed Lidl offer so so far so good there but with my credit[visa platinum]it wont accept the number.Keeps saying that it invalid.But i suppose not matter so much once there is at least one working card there for offers :pac::pac:

tracey1098 · 08-05-2017 9:18pm

Anyone having an issue registering a visa debit card? It would only accept my credit card number.

Try again tomorrow. That's what I did, and it worked the second day, using same password etc. The activation code is live for 48 hours.

From what I recall it mentions letters and numbers only. It certainly let me create a password with just those.

Kenno90 · 09-05-2017 8:54am

Still haven't gotten an email saying im my €10 is on its way (spend over 100 quid in H&M on Sunday) Does it take longer for Credit Cards to apply the promotion. Or do i actually have to pay it off for it to apply ?
