Tesco Clubcard warning as customers have less than two weeks before major change
PA
Tesco Clubcard points are currently worth three times their amount when you shop with a Tesco Rewards partner
Tesco has urged its 20 million Clubcard customers to use their rewards over the next two weeks.
The supermarket chain has issued an urgent warning to all of its Clubcard customers ahead of a big change on June 14.
Back in March, the supermarket announced that its loyalty scheme points will soon be worth twice their value, rather than three times as they are now.
Currently shoppers can collect points while shopping at Tesco which can then be traded in for vouchers to locations such as Legoland and Alton Towers.

Up until and including June 13, rewards ordered will continue to be valid for one year from the date of issue, rather than the usual six months.
Martin Lewis has shared his tips on how to extend your usual points for even longer and recommends making a small purchase on the Tesco Clubcard Rewards website.
The Money Saving Expert said: “Say you've got a £10 voucher, go online, login, spend say 50p of your £10, so you've now got £1.50 in restaurant vouchers, because 50p becomes £1.50.
“For the rest of the £9.50, they re-issue it and it lasts another two years.
“So if you spend just a little bit of the voucher, the rest of it is re-issued and it lasts another two years.”
Tesco’s chief customer officer Alessandra Bellini said: “While we are making a change to how members can use their vouchers with our reward partners.
“We want to remind millions of Clubcard holders to redeem their vouchers at three times the value until June 13 so they can use their reward partner codes to give themselves and their families a well-deserved treat.
“We have extended the validity of redeemed codes at the 3x rate, so if swapped before the deadline, they will be valid for a year, instead of six months, to give customers even more time to enjoy them.”
The change will also impact drivers who fill up at one of Tesco's forecourts

This isn't the only change Tesco Clubcard members will see on June 14.
Currently, motorists are awarded one point for every £2 they spend on fuel.
However, the new change will mean that you get one point for every two litres of fuel you buy instead of one point for every £2 you spend.
