Hi, I am in a childcare voucher scheme at work and get "e-vouchers". While I was on maternity leave I saved up the voucher amount and I'm not sure if they expire or not. The scheme is through Sodexo and on their website they talk about a 12-15 month expiry date. But surely that only applies to paper vouchers? I assume that the paper vouchers have an expiry date printed on them.


If the money is already in my Sodexo "account" then surely it is not going to expire if I don;t spend it? I'm thinking that the only problem would be if I change employer but I'm not planning on this any time soon. Eventually I will need it for nursery, after-school club etc but that might be in a year's time or so.


Does anyone know?

I am also with Sodexho and also looked at this issue. My understanding from looking at the website and the Q&A was that they do expire after 15 - 18 months (the electronic ones too) but you can get them extended if need be?


Probably best to call their helpline - here is the link to the Q&A from my website (run my sodexho) re the expiry:

Sodexo faq


'Do vouchers have an expiry date?

SayCare Pass vouchers last for 15 -18?months, so you can save them up for times when you may need extra childcare throughout the year.



What do I do if my vouchers have expired?

Sodexo Motivation Solutions has in the past undertaken to replace vouchers for a further 15 - 18?months. Contact us to find out more.'

Hi I spoke to Sodexo and they confirmed over the phone that both their paper and e-vouchers (the online ones) do expire. However, they will get in touch before the expiry date and as long as your reply to their email they will renew the vouchers. The man I spoke to made it sound quite straightforward and the expiry date was just an administrative thing to satisfy HMRC.

    • I thought the most they sell in terms of hot food at londis is like pastries and sausage rolls and for hot drinks its like costa coffee but its always a convenience store. Doesn’t look too bad in my opinion considering that shop has been closed down ever since i moved here
    • Hi Busterb, Yesterday I turned up with a scanner & towels, hoping to take a deceased tabby down to TNV. The body was moved moments before arrival & had not been turned in to any vets, rescues or animal hospitals. I am wondering if this could have been the same cat & if someone just tried to move the tabby further away from the road. Please be warned, viewers discretion is advised. but this is what the deceased tabby looked like: https://www.facebook.com/groups/900015513463302/permalink/3729980853800073/  In any case, if you haven't been able to get someone to scan or take down to a vet, I can scan tomorrow morning.
