Abbey has marked the launch of its new credit card with an eye-catching supermarket offer.
All customers will get five per cent cashback on the first £1,000 they spend in the stores while using the card.
Furthermore, every major supermarket has been signed up by the credit card provider as a participant in the scheme.
Abbey claims that, based on average spending figures, the offer will cover around five months of family shopping at supermarkets, assuming that the new credit card is used each time.
Roger Lovering, a managing director at Santander – the company which owns Abbey – said: “Our philosophy is all about offering real value for our customers. Supermarket cashback is the first example of that commitment.
“Once somebody becomes an Abbey credit card customer they can expect to see many more initiatives which offer similarly valuable benefits.”
The offer commences on September 3rd, and will apply until the end of January, 2008.
