A lot of LBS will take the halfords voucher. They just won't like it. Halfords charge the shop a hefty fee (when I was in shops it was 15%).

My employer offers C2W thru Halfords scheme, have used it several times always with independents and never had any bother, has a 4% discount on the voucher with max voucher value of 3.5K. The only interaction I had with Halfords was that they emailed me the voucher, and then after I had placed the order with the independent retailer they followed up with me to confirm I had received the goods from the retailer. Always been hassle free. The retailer I have used (Ribble the last couple of times) had no concerns about accepting Halfords voucher, it is just an option to select during checkout. Managed to combine it with a 20% discount code at Ribble earlier this year and used the savings to also put a garmin 1040 solar in the basket to replace my 10 year old garmin (which was nice)

@Arvy.
So 3 years later, my employer has woken up and delivered a cycle scheme.
A 3k limit. Let me be clear I lobbied for more, but this is a win.
It is the Halfords scheme. This allows purchases through Halfords (not going to happen) or Tredz (possible) and some independent stores ([[(https://www.halfords.com/cycling/expert-advice/cycle2work.html)]]
If all this is just an Halfords skin on the C2W application form, I can live with it. My question for the collective has anyone else had a similar restriction and managed to purchase via Tredz or another preferred retailer (in my case that is likely to be Balfes) successfully?
