    How did you manage to put yours through again? I tried to put my brothers through again after it was cancelled but it wouldnt let me use the code again.

    a new account: well if the wrong details have been entered the first time - i may aswell try and pass the "security" "check" by re-entering everything again ;)

    I understood from the above posts that this code was supposed to be for hampers only and orders were being cancelled - the above orders would appear to indicate that the code has not been formally blocked on the system. Does this mean that orders will be honoured or that they will be picked up tomorrow when the orders are processed?

    It looks like the majority of them will be cancelled.

    But this site does say "consumer revenge" so i've placed 2 new orders for each 1 they cancelled :D - that'll teach them for not being a little more honest about the cancellation.

    What have they actually done against you? It's dishonest to get £7 through abusing thier goodwill!

    My order (polar bear £0.95) is showing as despatched. It also shows next to the code "£7 off first order".

    Looks like it could be on its way.......

    it's also "dishonest" to say that "the details you provided have failed our checks" when that's complete nonsense (and it's presumably because they're objecting to the use of the voucher). As far as i'm aware it's perfectly acceptable to use the code since they've not actually told me not to use it or that it's not valid.

    I'm absolutely sure that they would happily make £7 profit on each sale - so i don't see why i should abide by any different sort of moral code.

    Morning.

    I ordered some Xmas wrapping paper with the £7 off and it came this morning! Albeit in a box suitable for a 56" TV!!!

    My mum also ordered some paper so we'll see if hers comes too?!?

    I imagine it's no skin of JL's nose if it loses money on seasonal stock? ie. Xmas paper, Hampers etc?
    Reassuringly expensive
