    Got my Halo kit today thought like lots of others they are being a bit tight, also these & the natural cleaning stuff seem to be products exclusive to Tesco i'm not a fan of tesco so that's a little black mark before i even get started on the product itself, with the cleaning stuff i got the anti-bac spray but can't find any info on it being pet safe

    I believe that Tesco now owns Bzz x

  • Are they morphing into a discounted sales site then if they are not giving free samples?

    Got my Halo kit - just a pity I'll have to wait a month to test most of it!

    BzzAgent UK now has a freephone telephone number 0800-622-6045, I'd phone it on this occasion as it isn't fair if they didn't tell you that there would be something to pay to try the product, usually they are pretty up front if there is anything to pay to try the product such as the steam iron, so that you could refuse if you knew!

    You can still bzz about it even if you don't buy any. Just by having a conversation here about the campaign means you can submit a report. So do your 2 reports and satisfy the campaign requirements. Same for the Halo too.

    My Halo kit came just in time haha! Sucks there isn't really that much in the kit though, but at least I didn't have to go out and get them myself as my local Tesco doesn't stock it.

    My Voltarol kit arrived thid mornbrning. A small bag to keep it in and 10 £2 off vouchers.................and thats it! I checked the price of the spray online, it's nearly £7!!!!! They want me to pay £5 to test this for them???? Jog on! More dissapointing than the Halo trial!


    I was expecting a free sample at least! If all you get are a few £2 off vouchers I don't think I'll be bzzing anyone apart from my bzz agent :mad:

    Received my Halo pack, it really is meagre. The liners are far smaller than the ones I use, I never use "wings" so just the other two for me to try (and they've arrived 4 days too late for that ;)) Even with the 50p off, they're not much cheaper, if at all, than the products I usually use, only the 15p charity thing going for them really in my opinion...

    I've just left 2 reports on Halo - saying how disappointed I am they couldn't even be bothered to send a free pack worth only about £1 and also how poor quality they are. I defo won't be buying them. I also have the votarol campaign. I think it's really cheeky to ask us to spread the word for them without even giving a sample. I certainly won't be spending £5 of my own money buying the product. If they want me to change brands, then a sample is needed! I don't think I'll be going for any other campaigns.

    I totally agree with you, I'm certainly not going to spend time writing reports for Votarol if they're not even going to give us a sample to try. The Halo samples are pathetic, if I had known how few samples we would get to try I wouldn't have signed up to the campaign. I might know the minute Tesco buy Buzz the whole thing would become a waste of time. :( I'm not doing all their market research for nothing, seriously considering finishing with them completely.
