Hello There,
Recieved my Pin code yesterday (Wednesday 18th Jan). My mum has a tesco credit card and said it arrived next day after my pin. No sign of it in the post today.. Will it get here by Monday evening?
Hi @kayjanallinson, sorry for the delay in getting back to you.
Your card can take seven to ten working days to arrive from when your account was opened. If you received your PIN on Wednesday, your card should be with you this week. If nothing arrives by the end of the week, please get back in touch and we'll look into it for you.
Hi Isabella63 and Georgina1, we wouldn't be able to confirm the status of your application via social media, so we can help please give u a call on 0345 300 4278, 24/7.
