Someone on the Rpoints forum applied for and got 1500 vouchers, he wrote a script to do this.
I'm not on Rpoints, so out of interest, do you know - why on earth did he do that? To be a Robin Hood and dole them out to others/for charity, or something? It seems a bizarre thing to do, or to admit to doing - I don't mind, I got my voucher and didn't buy a single copy of the newspaper, so I'm in no position to judge anyone else - I'm just genuinely curious!0 -
how the hell is the guy gonna spend 1500 vouchers by 30th of this month?
That guy must have one BIG dvd wishlist!0 -

Not entirely sure, but fair play to him he has been dishing a load out to people, he said he did it for Rpoints users but some people on the thread are giving him some stick.
I worked out that if he sold them for £2.50 each on eBay he could get well over £3,000 for them!!! But he hasn't been doing just seems to be giving them to posters and friends as well as using some himself. Don't think he got 1500 £5 ones think some were £1 ones.2p off is still 2p off!0 -
He wants to look good and build up a reputation as a "nice guy" on rpoints - or he anjoys begging letters. One or the other/both! The link is being sent to Play tomorrow to show how the system is being abused...
No multiple applications my...Being bored is so boring Im bored of it... :rotfl:0 -
Just read the t's&c's of the receipt from the application again:
"Vouchers will be sent via email to successful applicants within 7 working days. All applicants will be notified by email whether successful or not. "
So theoretically those who applied but didnt get it (i.e. me) still have a chance as we havent had this notification!

I'm going to write a letter complaining about the fact that even though I didn't buy the Daily Mirror and even though I wasn't garunteed a voucher I didn't get one and that someone else did or something. And I applied for one for hubby. Makes my blood boil. What a farce.0

Got my voucher £5. Ordered the Sharon Ossy book. Excellent. Thanks OP.
Applied for one and got one.

That guy on Rpoints was also selling links on ebay for £25 for that 32" £99 TV information from Dixons that never materialed. Then once it was clear we were not gonna get one he revised his item to say NO REFUNDS.0

Well apologies if that was not you but the ebay id was the same as your Rpoints ID, but if that’s just a coincidence then sorry however I still dont agree with what you did regarding them vouchers.
But its done now0
