Have you been collecting Morrisons More Card points? If so, you will have to travel to Weymouth to use them – after it emerged that customers cannot redeem their points in Jersey branches.
After Morrisons acquired 36 Sandpiper stores across the Channel Islands at the end of last year, the brand took over all former Checkers Express and Iceland shops in Jersey.
The supermarket has since been advertising its Morrisons More Card loyalty scheme across the island – but Express has now learned that the points cannot yet be redeemed in local stores.
We will very soon be providing customers the ability to redeem their Morrisons Fivers in our stores on the island
Morrisons spokesperson
The loyalty scheme offers shoppers discounted More Card Prices – which are available in Jersey – and a More Card, which allows shoppers to earn points towards vouchers called Morrisons Fivers.
Customers earn five More Card points for every product purchased at Morrisons.
But following queries from Express, the national supermarket chain confirmed that Jersey customers are currently unable to redeem their Morrisons Fivers vouchers anywhere in the island.
Islanders would have to travel to Weymouth to visit the nearest store that can accept the discount vouchers.
But a supermarket spokesperson said Morrisons will “soon” be providing customers the ability to redeem their Morrisons Fivers in Jersey branches.
The full statement said: “Over the last few weeks we have introduced our Morrisons More Card loyalty scheme to our Morrisons Daily stores in Jersey.
“This means that customers can now earn five More Points for every product they buy and we have also launched More Card Prices.
“We will very soon be providing customers the ability to redeem their Morrisons Fivers in our stores on the island.”
