Simply saying ‘yes’ and giving them your card details wins you the £15.

Surely if anyone asks for any kind of sensitive information for something other than what you are initially paying for, in this particular case flights were the initial product/service, do you not think that it would be sensible to check the small print before disclosing your details?:confused:

Although, that said, it does seem rather wrong of Flybe to try pursuading their customers to give their card details out to other companies, as I am sure they are probably only doing this so that they can recieve a commission from them?

Why am I not surprised Ryanair is involved in this (Guardian article mentions Ryanair)!

It is a wonder they didn't initiate the scheme, MOL is slipping! :D

They probably did initiate the scheme, BE have probably just followed suit, simply because they have seen the £'s rolling in from the comissions that they no doubt recieve from those people who have unwittingly fallen victim to it.
