I love my blue light card

I love my blue light card, just had £60 off my Jet 2 holiday. Use it for our ferries from the Isle of Wight where we live. Parking at Bournemouth Airport and so on. After working in the NHS for over 25 years I really feel grateful that I can get these offers. Every one helps. Thanks for everything.

The ‘bargains’ aren’t that much of a bargain and some code don’t work - like the one I tried yesterday for a mere £5 off a £200 purchase with Cloud Nine! Not worth the bother!

Hello, 

Thank you for taking the time to leave us a review.

It's always worth checking the map feature on our app while you're out and about to see which shops are nearby that accept Blue Light Card, otherwise check in every now and then to browse our online offers - we're always adding more, and you never know when you might spot a 'boosted' offer on your favourite shops.

IID declined at renewal .no change in circumstances. Front line staff.

I have had a card for many years and despite it being increasingly difficult to use as so many companies are moving over to 'top up' cards i have enjoyed some fantastic savings.
Throughout my membership I have been employed as a front line staff member for social care, employed by the local social services department. My role and job description is around 95% the same as a social worker. In March 2026 I paid to renew my card but my identity was declined. My hr department wrote a letter confiirming my employment status and role, which I attached to my job description. The site wouldn't allow me to upload the documents so I raised an issue and was able to attach the documentation. It was declined again. Today I received an email asking how 'they had done,' Bluelight. You did rubbish and I am very disappointed.

I had an issue with my cinema vouchers not working on the app. Polly from Blue Light Card advised me to try to access the vouchers through my account on the browser which worked. Polly was courteous, helpful and professional. Thanks again Polly for your help.

Tried to top up a shopping card but it failed again

Tried to top up a shopping card but it failed after waiting ages to access the site. It stated that I’d get my money back in 5-10 days. That’s helpful, £100 out of pocket for that long. Luckily the money didn’t come out of my bank so I bought a new shopping card and…..yep, I can’t claim it ‘there’s a problem’, again!
Maybe that’s what happens when the platform is open to all those teachers who respond to emergencies with a blue light.
