Shell V-Power card vouchers
Discussion
Always use these - just had an £8.50 off one which was nice.
The other one was one of the "fill up x times this month and get 300 points". It used to be 4 times which was pretty reasonable, but the most recent one is 6 times!! It's bloody hard work! Have had 5 fill ups so far and am going to have to drive Mrs.NCoT's Puma round a lot over the next couple of days to squeeze in 30L!
Is it just me or do the garages not have a clue how they work though? It used to be that they'd scan it the first time and then keep it, insisting that it would "automatically" credit my points when used for the 4th times. Then they gave it back, saying get it scanned every fill up. This most recent one, they don't seem to bother scanning it but just write the number of the fill up on it! I reckon it's a scam - how the hell will I ever know if my points get added!?
Anybody else used them?

I also use the vouchers, my last voucher was for £10.
I've also noticed that it's now fill up 6 times in a month with a minimum 30 litres to get an extra 300 points, instead of filling up 4 times.
I think I've managed atleast 5 fill ups so far this month, but I'm doing 1000 miles a week. It is possible to fill up 6 times in a month with a minimum of 30 litres if you're doing big mileage.

mine went up from 4 to 6, the wifeys went from 4 to 2.
Which is win win for me, because she doesn't put V-Power in her car (she does however fill mine up when I've been a good boy and not spent all my money on sweets and fizzy drinks and things that rot my teeth), so I get her vouchers anyway.

I use these aswell- may aswell get what you can from them seeing as the car is mapped for v power.
The number of fill ups increases as you meet the target number set. Not meeting them resets it to two or three fill ups to get the bonus points.
I too have the same issue with the voucher in that some scan and give it back, some scan and keep it and some just look at in a confused state. I think its meant to be scanned at each fill up and kept on the final one. Would be better if it was scanned once and from then on it auto registered the bonus points.
Does any one know for sure how this actually works?
