in Student MoneySaving
Hey,

I did a quick search to see if this has already been covered, and couldn't find anything - sorry if it has!

I just had a live chat with dell support - Cheekily asking if there's any student discounts I can claim and I was directed to

http://www.dell-sci.co.uk/sci/catalogue.html


You order just what you normally would, but it knocks off 3% off up to £599, 6% off up to £1199 and 10% over £1200.

I just saved £64 on my new laptop!

    Northwick is in Cheshire... That's not Norfolk... Norwich is the main city in Norfolk.

    why the witch hunt? Seems to be a genuine discount website. Dell probably sub contracted this area of the business.

    if you guys are suspicious, why not call Dell and ask if they do student discount, then if it is true they should give you the site name
