    i ordered on saturday but still haven't got it delivered nor they have taken money from my bank account.i don't even have my customer refernce no .i received an email after i ordered the items but after that haven't received anything yet.why is that?

    sometimes empire can be very slow delivering these days, about a week or more most times.

    fiery you can only use one code at a time.

    i've used the £20 code twice and each time it has worked, but i already have an account with them and if they charge full price at any time (unlikely at this stage) i'll just pay full price - i ordered things i wanted anyhow.

    as for ordering as a new customer, they credit check it all and it goes on your experian etc. reports, so be wary of using fake names, or changing your name slightly etc. because it will make you look really dodgy when you get credit checked.

    I've used the £20 code 7 times so far.... 3 in OH's name, 3 in DD's name and once in mine.... so some reason I cant use it more than once!!

    They only credit check when you try to open an account - I use my credit card to pay when ordering (also covers me for them charging when they're not meant to).

    keep an eye on your statement

    have you had all the stuff you have ordered yet?

    i did the same for my dad they charged me full price for all the stuff something to do with no account number.

    i am a customer and have used it 3 times, the 3rd item i ordered has been cancelled due to the code being used max number of times.

    still saved £40 :D

    why not open an account. that way you get commission back when you buy and free gift offers and still use the codes

    Relax, they often take longer to deliver than the 'expected' delivery date they email you. This is because they deliver by local couriers who are often people who just do it as a hobby or extra job and wait till they have a couple of deliveries in your area.
    I've had tons of stuff free and very cheap using codes from them in the past without any probs.
    Hope this sets your mind at ease ;)
