A gift card can’t be used to purchase another Tesco gift card or third-party gift card sold in Tesco Ireland stores.
Coupons cannot be exchanged for cash or used to purchase gift-vouchers.
I don't think that that makes any difference - almost certainly you will not be able to buy a Dunnes gift card using the Tesco gift card.A work company scheme was used to purchase the Tesco gift voucher.
I appreciate you don't normally shop there, I'm the same but from a principle point of viewI received a Tesco gift voucher at Christmas but don't normally shop there.
You could try the old buy and return a clothing item and request a cash refund or refund to debit card as you have managed to misplace the gift voucher.Thanks for the reply ClubMan. A work company scheme was used to purchase the Tesco gift voucher.
This from experience? They are under no obligation to do so and I'd imagine widespread abuse of their generous returns policy might lead to restrictions that might affect many more with genuine returns.You could try the old buy and return a clothing item and request a cash refund or refund to debit card as you have managed to misplace the gift voucher.
Once goods are returned with tags and undamaged they should do it without quibble.
There is no guarantee that such a wheeze wouldn't fall foul of small-print terms and conditions, in which case theYou could try the old buy and return a clothing item and request a cash refund or refund to debit card as you have managed to misplace the gift voucher.

I read this as meaning that a gift card purchase will only be refunded in the form of a gift card top-up or a replacement gift card and not cash or equivalent. But maybe cheque is an option. It's just not clear if they mean that gift card purchases are only refunded in the form of gift cards/gift card top-ups, while money card (whatever that is) purchases are refunded in the form of a cheque. The wording seems ambiguous.Getting your refund
If you are entitled to a refund, we will refund you as follows:
- If you paid by payment card, we’ll refund you on the payment card.
- If you paid by gift card/money card, we’ll refund you on your payment card or send you a cheque.
- If you paid by Clubcard voucher, we’ll either refund you on your payment card, send you a cheque or give you the equivalent in Clubcard points.
Or petrol/diesel.But would there not be something in the drapery, electronics or toy departments of Tesco where the voucher could be used
Tesco fuel stations are now run by Certa.Or petrol/diesel.
You can be sure that the work scheme only paid about 80% of the value of the voucher; big stores like Tesco offer discounts on giftcards and that is why a giftcard cannot be used to purchase another giftcard. There is also an admin cost for stores to run a giftcard programme.Thanks for the reply ClubMan. A work company scheme was used to purchase the Tesco gift voucher.
Fair enough. I don't know if this still correct then. You can still collect clubcard points at the pump though.Tesco fuel stations are now run by Certa.
What do you mean? If @Logo's gift card has a face value of €100 then they can only spend €80? That's not my experience with such vouchers and I find it difficult to believe that this approach would be commonplace.You can be sure that the work scheme only paid about 80% of the value of the voucher
It might even have been a tax free bonus of the full amount.This is the definition of a first world problem. We don’t shop in Tesco either but could quite easily do so if we had a voucher burning a hole in our pocket. If the voucher is worth €1,000, it’s probably only cost you €500ish becsuse of the tax break. So if your weekly shop is €250, you can now get four shops for the price of two. It’s a win for you.
To be fair, @Loco acknowledged that in the original post.This is the definition of a first world problem.
Apologies in advance for 1st world problem but ...
That’s what I’m suggesting. If it’s tax free, it saves €500 versus getting €1,000 in ‘cash’.It might even have been a tax free bonus of the full amount.
They mean that the employer may have a deal so that the €100 voucher only cost the employer €80What do you mean? If @Logo's gift card has a face value of €100 then they can only spend €80?
