Just to clear up - does anybody have confirmation email from the post office?
All I got was the email with my reference number on it

Some people have, others haven't. If you want to know if you got in in time, just ring them up.

I almost applied just then, phew!

If it works... Which we may not know for awhile...
Thanks anyway, of course!

Do you know how to take a screenshot?!

Press the
'Print Screen' button above your arrow keys (next to the 'scroll lock' and 'pause' buttons). Laptops are usually on the right somewhere

Open up microsoft works/word/microsoft paint andclick edit > paste.

If you follow the link and fill in your reference number you should get to a 'congratulations, you're covered' screen.

It doesn't necessarily mean you are covered though. I didn't get the email, but could do what you suggest above and got a congratulations you're covered screen. However as their system went down around half eleven for the change in T&Cs, my application didn't actually go through properly so if I hadn't rung them, my policy wouldn't have existed.

I really hope this debacle won't adversely affect Mr Crozier's bonus next year..... :rolleyes:

Oh, ok, I thought you had a blank screen... I don't like phone calls much, I wonder if I can email them? I applied last night though (with a start date of the 10th) so my not having a confirmation email shouldn't have anything to do with the system down time.

I have just telephoned the post office on the freephone no 08000965489 I gave them my code from the email and some security details the lady told me they would honour the cashback as long as I applied prior to 11.30 this morning, with my £5.00 a month. Thanks to OP and my quidco has validated for £43.00. :beer:

No, I got the congrats screen with all other details, only the plan number was blank.

Seriously, I'm not a big phone fan either, but honestly they couldn't have been nicer and more helpful. Ring them, you'll only be sitting around waiting for an email for ages.... go on......
