First of all, many many thanks CPG for the new thread and all the work that you do to make everything as clear as possible.

When CS kindly awarded me a lot of points last month, because of my Pampers-Gate fiasco, I specifically asked what items I could redeem them for, other than the usual things, and phone top-ups were included, and I've also used points in the past for this, without any problems.

Following a response from another Bootser yesterday, (sorry can't find it) that these are not allowed, I was frantic with worry that my points would suddenly be removed.

I've telephoned CS to check, and was told again that it was OK to use them for phones. I said "a friend" had said that they weren't, but CS said it used to be their policy not to accept points for phones, but they do now.

Could this be one of these situations where it depends which CS you are talking to? I'm still frantic!

Has anyone else used points to top up their phone please? And are they still a free citizen or have the Points Police arrested them!

We have used points on numerous occasions to buy top ups so you have no need to worry. It was announced in one of the Boots magazines that there were now able to do that.

Hi everyone

I have got my first new voucher, its blue and white again so should it be called a bluey2?:D .

Its a £5 spend to get one and is in two parts £2 off professional haircare and £2 off Maybelline and Bourjois.

The haircare brands included are:
Toni&Guy
Charles Worthington
TommyGuns
Lee Stafford
Mark Hill
James Brown
Umberto Giannini
John Frieda
Trevor Sorbie
it excludes minis, sachets and gift sets

I got a 150 points ACM voucher for Umberto Giannini so I'm guessing this will work together with the bluey2 so the shampoo at £4.40ish will be 90p in Boots logic.

I can't believe how many new GWP's there are!, the bourjois mirror ball lipgloss is my favourite, you have to spend £10 to get it but with the new voucher it brings it down to £8, definately treating myself.

Thanks anybunny the bluey2 seems alot better than the last blueys. I cant wait to see the new GWP the mirror ball sounds lovely. Hopefully i can get to boots tomorrow.:rolleyes:

Thanks

I think they are classed as gift sets so probably not. Worth a try though

Got the new BLUEYS, not too keen on them!

I will probably be handing out the BOURJOIS/MAYBELLINE part to anyone, so feel free to pm me with your details. Will currently send 1 per person. People that have not had any vouchers off me will be given priority as I want everyone to benefit from my freebies.

The haircare part looks good, but couldn't find anything for less than £2 and as I won't be using any of these haircare products, it would be pointless for me to use them. If anyone finds anything, don't let me be the last to know.

Also, got 2 x lunches from the lovely SA, and finally got a customer survey till spit. Gonna give her a glowing report as she is the best!

Have a good day all.

Thanks CPG for the new thread. Yes Sandra, you can use your points on top up. I did this many times and the SA are fine about it
