  • Hi there, I have just found this thread and remember when my friends and I wrote to McVities complaining about the rubbish jokes on Penguins (for a laugh) and we sent in some of our own (rude) suggestions. They sent us a voucher for £2 I think! This was years ago, had totally forgotten about it!:D

    Was not expecting them as I received some a couple of months back and I thought that was all you got.

    I am thinking of starting this, and I have a few questions:

    Do you write letters or send emails to these companies?
    If you send e-mails, how do the companies send you vouchers?
    Do you compliment them or complain?
    Do they always send coupons?
    How do you get them to send coupons to you (do you just state that you want coupons or do you hint that you would like some)?

    Thanks

    Go to the contact us section and many websites may have a name and address field. If not just include it in the end of your message or e-mail. If complimenting just ask if they provide samples or coupons (look through the thread for ideas of those who do).
  • Fom sending emails almost a month ago hears back from a few company's
    Genuine complaint to burger king I got £5 postal order and £10 worth of vouchers to spend In outlets in train stations
    Received a £5 Starbucks voucher

    Response from Greenpeople - Thank you for your email and your interest in our products, I will send
    you on a couple of samples from our range.

    Those of you who still have the Nestle cereal coupons may like to know that Shredded Wheat 16's are half price at 84p until 23rd January at Tesco. None of the bitesize ones are on offer :(
  • ^ I messaged nestle, but they just said thanks for feedback... no vouchers :(

    Ooh, Green People are very generous - they offered to send me 'a couple of samples' a few weeks ago and this is the bundle that arrived :j:
