Updated Printable Money off Coupons & Policies Thread 3

heskpesk

I have just logged into Pigsback to get MOC but got the following message:

" To print a coupon you must mobile validated your account. Please enter you mobile number below to mobile validate your account. Please note that the mobile number you submit is only ever used for mobile validation purposes (it is not used as a contact number). "

I have never given my mobile number to them so how can I validate??? I put my home number in and it then asked for a validation code??? Any ideas please? Thanks

I had never given my mobile, you have to give it and they text you a code you then put in where it ask for validation code

Heskpesk : when you give them your mobile number, they send you a text with a code number in it, which you then have to input onto the Pigsback screen before you can print. I don't think it will work if you give them a landline number.

Further to that if you don't want to use your personal mobile no. then use some free sims just to get the validation code......I did it that way....and it worked for me that way....

Thank you everyone: So have I missed the boat as gave land line number?? Or can I start again and give mobile number?

Thanks again

The barcode on the left hand side of the coupon also contains your personalised security ID number, traceable to you. It might not be wise to use more than one of these coupons.

I know we're all desperate for new coupons as the supplies are drying up a bit, but could I be really boring and advocate some caution here, pls thnks.

I have just been to Waitrose & as usual given up coupons. SA, an older male, is always really good at taking them & did so today but initially said he could take only 6 although usually it is up to half the cost. But in chatting, he mentioned that the industry is talking about stopping vouchers & accepting them because too many people are spoiling it by using multiple vouchers.

Perhaps we should all heed what CJ has said and act more cautiously. Is it worth, gaining a few pounds now only to find that in a short while, no-one will take any vouchers - that is if we can find them.

I purchased some washing up liquid today and there was a £2 MOC with Tesco on but 99 code for dishwasher tabs. I do not want to risk current flexible policy but am I right in thinking should not use unless buying product as the MOC has Tesco on. Alternatively is this within policy because it is 99 code??? Would appreciate some advice as want to use the MOC but only if safe and sensible to do so. Thank you

Tesco policy says you are supposed to buy the product for coupons issued by Tesco. As you probably know, usually you are 'saved by the till' which is set to beep angrily if you don't use Tesco coupons properly.

But...in this case, the tills have not been set to block this coupon if you don't buy the dishwasher stuff. This has happened sometimes in the past (e.g. with the Spanish Chocolate one from the Good Food Show leaflet and the Actimel moc given out instore a few months ago).

So it's a matter of your attitude to risk I suppose. It's not within Tesco policy so you could get noticed using one (and I certainly wouldn't put one in the self-scan due to the need for authorisation). But in a batch of NSS coupons it will work and Tesco will get the money back as it's a valid promo - and they must be selling shedloads of this stuff at the mo if the empty shelves in my local stores are anything to go by!

FWIW I have used a few, one per day, as I am sure Tesco will get the money back so for me this is within my personal line of what I feel is acceptable. We are in dire straits financially at the moment so I felt this one is OK while it lasts. And yes I have bought quite a lot of the washing up liquid to get the mocs - but I have not bought the dishwasher stuff.

I am comfortable using one per day whilst I have some of these, but strictly speaking it's not within policy...
