    That doesn't sound like a bargain! Or is that just me? I have no idea when it comes to litres!

    Iam guessing it would just about cover the extra cost of buying the V-Power over their normal stuff. According to their literature, 30l of V-Power costs about £2 more than their normal stuff.

    I received my kit today also and only received the £2.00 off minimum spent of 20 litres vouchers not the £10 ones as stated in the accompanying letter. I only tend to fill my car up with about £10 at a time, due to financial reasons, so it doesn't look like I will be able to take part in this campaign. Shame really, I wish they had explained the campaign better before I signed up.

    I feel bad that they have gone to the expense of sending me the pack out but if they had made the campaign clearer I wouldn't have signed up. Plus I tend to hibernate over the Christmas & New Year period and as I break up from uni next week, I won't be using my car as much.

  • I totally agree with all of you. If I'd have known they were minimum spend I wouldn't have signed up as I am happy enough using unleaded! I hope I get the £20 vouchers but judging by your comments I don't think I will!

    The £2 off vouchers wouldn't justify me travelling the extra distance to go to a Shell garage to use them.

    The letter with the pack specifically states that we should have 2 £10 vouchers, as did the initial sign up text.

    I can honestly say that I won't be using or recommending Shell to anyone from this campaign. I'll stick to Tesco for now.

    I thought it was just me who didn't get the £10 vouchers so I emailed them and will post their reply when or if I get one.:confused:
  • Received my pack today and no £10 vouchers as stated. I have sent this email to Jono:

    I received my bzz pack for the above campaign but I am missing an item listed "two £10 vouchers to try v-power yourself".
    When I signed upto the campaign it stated that I would receive £20 in vouchers for v-power fuel.

    Can you confirm whether these are to be sent out at a later date? If not, then I am not sure that I will be able to fulfill this campaign effectively as I would not feel comfotable bzzing about a product that I have been unable to try myself.

    To give £2 off a minimum fill of 20L is a bit rich really, especially as one voucher expires in two days time. As an owner of a renault Clio the minimum fill requirement would have my car just about overflowing with petrol!!!!

    I enjoy participating in bzz campaigns and sharing products and info with friends and family. I try not to sign up for campaigns which I Would find difficulty to fulfill or that cost me money which inevitably this campaign would.

    I look forward to your reply.
