    And there was all of us thinking it was first come first served. Bit of false advertising maybe if they've changed the rules....

    I very much doubt they will have changed the rules. It quite clearly stated that the first 2000 applicants would receive one. I'm guessing that the success screen is just misworded. It would be pretty dumb of them to knowingly mislead and anger thousands of potential customers.

    Looks very much like an email collecting scam - shame on you, Martin Lewis!

    Turns out to be a details harvesting scam - not for the first 2000 at all.

    And they got everyone's phone number on top of everything else.

    • Hi all,
    I have just called and spoke with the company

    NO ONE HAS MANAGED TO GET THROUGH!!

    The server has gone down obviously due to the amount of traffic -

    Advice given - keep refreshing the link from this website, do not go to the site itself and enter ' join the club '
    Although, probably for many of us the screen has NOT CHANGED and there is currently nowhere to enter your detail, just keep refreshing the page.
    They have technicians working on the server NOW.

    It will be up and running within 5 - 10 mins apparently

    If you got a success page, DO IT AGAIN - they reckon NOONE has managed to get through!!

    Hope this helps and good luck all

    Jo x

    oh great (!) Thanks Jo!

    By any chance did you ask them if it's a competition draw or first come first served?

    Also, if we enter ourselves again after 10-15mins...it's just going to say we've been entered into the draw already :mad: this sucks!

  • Stupid website. They knew they were going to be swamped with requests, so buy extra bandwith for the day or even hour.
    Hire in a backup server.

    MSE have prob caused the server to crash in the first place, when you get those £1hotel offers that site seems to have coped.

    Got it at last...entered my details and the next screen says that my details are entered into a draw!! Keeping my fingers crossed!!

    All folks....keep 'Refreshing' the website till you can get it... I have been doing the same since 2pm and got through them after 20 mins.

    If it's a draw, can we enter as many times as we want?

    To celebrate tastelondon's third birthday, we are giving away
    tastelondon launched 3 years ago and is now the capital's largest diners club with over 800 restaurants offering 50,000 members 50% off the total food bill. Unlike other dining schemes, tastelondon members can order from the full a la carte menu, meaning they do not have to compromise on their dining experience, but still save a fortune each time they dine out.
    the offer is open...


    You've been entered into the draw.

    If you're successful take a look at what you'll receive as a Taste member www.tastelondon.co.uk
