    When I placed the order using the method described it goes through as normal but for some reason it does not show up in order tracking. I contacted Customer Services but there doesn't seem to be a problem so fingers crossed.

    Hi Neil

    Thanks for your e-mail message.

    The reason why your order does not appear under “My orders” in the membership area is because you were not logged in at the time of placing the order.

    However, I can confirm that your order was successful and your order number is XXXXXXXXX.

    If you have any further queries please do not hesitate to contact us – we are here to help!

    Kind Regards

    Kim

    They are wrong in their explanation of why but I don't care if they send it me!

    Again, they cancelled with the same reason of using a discount link and e-voucher together. This time I have just used the 20% discount method only. Surely they cannot say anything about that.

    is it me or am i doing something wrong?

    when i have the page open of the item i want,i right click add to cart and there is no copy shortcut or copy link highlighted,there is a "copy" highlighted but when i copy it and go to paste it in there is no paste feature highlighted

    however if paste "&affid=14319&pp_nr=1"into the address bar at the end of what already there(bring on the page of the item i want) and then click go,it reloads the page showing the 20% discount but as soon as i add it to my cart,it goes in at the full price

    what am i doing wrong?

    What's happened is cd-wow have realised that the link was being abused and it has been broken so we can't use it...

    I think they're cancelling orders which cause them a loss, but allowing all orders giving them a profit. I put in two orders with max. discount, one was cancelled, the other hasn't been (yet). The one that has been cancelled was of low value (after much reduction ;)) - it's possible they were going to make a loss on that one. The other one, it's possible they're going to make a profit...who knows o_O.
