Hi mari, I've got one, well worth it if you are going to book a thomas cook holiday as you don't get charged a fee for using a credit card, which can be a hefty portion .
Also, yes, you do earn points every time you use it, which can be redeemed against another holiday with them or can be used to pay for some of you currency ( I did this yesterday, got £30 knocked off )
I think when you first get it you have something like 3 months interest free too, so another bonus !

We have had one for a number of years and buy everything on it. However its not as good as it used to be the value of the rewards has been reduced we used to accumalate about £250 a year but its capped now at 1% of £10,000 There are other benefits such as not paying a surcharge to book a T.C. holiday. Full details and application form on line.

I too have had one for a few years and used to accumulate £200+ per year.....

and I have heard that due to customer feedback the £10k cap and the reduction from 1% to 0.5% on non TC purchases are to be changed back and we will have 1% on everything with no cap (spend at Thomascook will stay at 1% rather than the old 2%)

I've had a letter today re my TC card.
No longer free of charges when booking a holiday - 2.5% charge now.
Can't use your travelpoints to get foreign money -you can only use them off cost of holiday

The £10,000 cap has gone it's unlimited now.
You can buy foreign currency free of charge now.

These all take place on April 27th

Hardly worth having!!!
