Wow...Very surprised to see my original unanswered thread on this card from 2004 has come come back to life!!

Copy of a posting I made on the Credit Card Freebies Forum this evening.
********************

I also applied for the Sony Card, only got 2000 "Beat" points on my first statement, so I telephoned and was told that the extra 6200 would be on the next statement.
I have just received my 2nd statement and found that I have been have finally got my full Beat points of 8200.
I then went onto the Sony Card Catalogue only to find that the MP3 player for 8200 points is no longer in the catalogue. :mad:
Can somebody please let me know the catalogue number/code so that I can phone up and try and order it??

According to SalaamSaraah, in a previous post, the order code was E-C04-1153, but in the online catalogue this code is now a CD Radio Cassette, which is 8300 points.

Update.
I have telephoned the 08700362444 number this morning (saturday) and the recorded message said the office was closed weekend's. I was invited to leave my telephone No and they will (hopefully) call me back on Monday. This was therefore a cheap phone call.

Thanks
Tony

Having trouble finding the MP3 player as well - there's a few that are 9500 so maybe sony are bumping up the points/cost to put people off taking advantage of the offer?

hopefully not as i wouldn't mind a mp3 player

I believe the code for the MP3 was E-C04-1190 which as tonyp2020 says has been removed from the catalogue.

I ordered the MP3 player in mid-December and received a letter this week dated 16th January which says the following:

I'm really annoyed about the fact that the mp3 player is no longer in the sonycard catalogue. I applied for the card so i could get the mp3 player. I waited until the points were on my statement and now the player isn't listed! It's a con! Can anyone confirm what the product code is please, because Sony are going to have one irate caller to deal with tomorrow!!:mad:

Sony CC CS phoned me this morning.
The Nice Lady (NL) said that the fact that the MP3 player was missing from the on-line Catalogue was a mistake, yes they had some in stock, and she took my order for one and said I should received it inside 28 Days.

Anyone taking bets on the outcome?? :rolleyes:
Tony

Happyhaggis,
The NL at Sony CC CS seemed to know all about the MP3 player at 8200 points, she did'nt even ask me for the order code, and I forgot to check the number. It might be E-C04-1190. Good luck.

Just wondering what info do they ask for when you ring to place an order? just your card number?

Cheers,
