    I've not seen many offers that require a web address, (I'd leave it blank) but I've had lots of freebies with a made up 'phone number. I think that a request for my name, address and e-mail is (more than) enough personal information for a company to request, so I have no qualms about making up a 'phone number! I usually put n/a (not applicable) and if that doesn't work, then a made up number usually does! ;)

    Looking at the image through the link, the web address that you enter may be what is printed on the sample pen that they may be sending out to you all.
    "Part P" is not, and has never been, an accredited electrical qualification. It is a Building Regulation. No one can be "Part P qualified."

    I used to work for a business who were sent free pens from various promotional companies each Christmas and they would just either write "your logo" or put the company name on them (which they'd got from the 'phone book).

    In this case, I assumed they would just send the pen as illustrated with "your logo" written on. I suppose we'll just have to wait and see!


    Edit - I meant we'll have to wait and see if we get one, if we don't fill in a web address! ;)

    Don't think so, as it would not be cost efficent! Imagine all them pens, printing, posting etc.

    I agree with redmandarin, I own a company and they come with "your logo" or just plain sometimes for me.

    Don't need to imagine - we get plenty sent to us unsolicited within the training industry that have our details printed as a sample! :p;)

    That happened at the company where I worked. Some of the pens were quite expensive ones too - my boss was the owner of the business and he'd let me keep them! I miss that - but not much else about the job, though! :D

    I'm just getting:
    The resource cannot be found.

    Wonder if they've taken the offer off now or if it's just my computer throwing a strop :confused:

    I'm getting the same "resource not found" error message. Bet they've pulled the offer!

    First they came for the crack users; but I said nothing. I was not a crack user. Then they came for the heroin users. But I said nothing - I was not a heroin user. Then they came for me. There was no one left to speak for me. (after Pastor Niemoller)
