At Discounts for Carers, we hear your questions—on Trustpilot, in emails, and in DMs—so we’ve put together a guide to answer the top 10 questions our members ask.
Think of this as your friendly companion to saving more, stress less, and grabbing those wins you deserve.
1. Why isn’t my discount code working?
It happens. Codes expire. Retailer sites hiccup. Or maybe you clicked “Get Code” too late, or copied an extra space.
Quick tip: copy the code exactly and check the T&Cs. Still failing? Reach out to our support team—we can usually fix it in a flash.
“I absolutely love Discounts for Carers! Always worth checking before any purchase—lots of different retailers/offers included!” – Trustpilot reviewer
2. How do I reset my password / log in if I’ve forgotten credentials?
We get it. Forgetting a password isn’t the issue—getting the reset email is. First, check your junk/spam folder. Nothing? Email us at [email protected], and we’ll send a manual reset link.
3. Why is my ODE Cashback Card not working in-store?
Sometimes tech misbehaves. Should you hit a snag with your ODE Cashback Card, don’t panic. Our team can fix it fast.

“I was worried about hidden fees on the cashback card, but the team explained clearly. Membership is free, and the optional card can save you an extra £200 a year if you choose it.” – Trustpilot reviewer
4. Who is actually eligible for discounts?
Carers aren’t the only ones!
Full-time carers, part-time carers, volunteers, and even retired carers qualify. If you dedicate time to caring, there’s a good chance you can access our discounts—even if it feels like you’re quietly missing out.
5. Can I combine DfC discounts with cashback or other offers?
Absolutely. Stacking discounts is often possible—and yes, it’s even better than it sounds.
Here’s how:
- Grab a brand’s discount code from our website or app.
- Buy a pre-discounted gift card for the same store via our platform.
- At checkout, apply your discount code and pay with the pre-discounted gift card.
Two sets of savings. One quick win.
“Small savings add up quickly over months, especially when you stack discounts and cashback on everyday items like groceries, fuel, or home essentials.” – Trustpilot reviewer
6. Are there discounts for everyday essentials, not just holidays or big-ticket items?
Absolutely. From groceries to fuel, household goods to technology, we help you save on the stuff that hits your wallet every week. Don’t ignore the small wins—they mount up faster than you’d think.
7. How quickly are gift cards delivered or activated?
All of our Gift Cards are digital. They appear under My Gift Cards in your Member Account—no waiting for the postman, no losing envelopes.
8. Do retired carers or former employees still qualify?
Yes! Retired carers can keep using our discounts. No current work email? No problem—just sign in with the email linked to your account.
9. Why do some discounts seem less valuable than before?
Retailers update offers all the time. That thing you loved yesterday? It might not be included today.
Good news: new discounts land constantly. A quick check on our site before you buy often uncovers an even juicier deal. A couple of minutes now = pounds saved later.
“From time to time, some sites don’t seem cheaper—but checking T&Cs and comparing prices usually fixes that.” – Trustpilot reviewer
