    50p here too.... cdwows promotions are looking to be a bit of a con.
    The word is BOUGHT, not BROUGHT.
    It's LOSE, NOT LOOSE.
    You ask for ADVICE not ADVISE.

    3 x 50p vouchers to different email addresses!
    They need to get their act together since now lots of other cd sites are cheaper and offer free p&p as well.

    I got a 50p voucher (spent it already :p )

    I don't think it's really an scam in terms of law, perhaps slightly immoral (but then again, they are giving away free stuff) , all they need to do is give out two £8.75 vouchers or so and they will have done what they stated.

    Before when they have done the same there hasn't been an image verification thing, and I set something up to send 25,000 vouchers. Not a joke. And not a single one was for £5 or £8.75.


    Is it possible that they've spotted that the 25,000 entries all came from the same IP address? (assuming that you haven't actually got the use of 25,000 computers?)

    Interesting test though!
  • I got 2 x 50p's too!
    It's better to beg forgiveness than ask permission.
  • Maybe they are giving out 50p vouchers in the hope that people who normally use other sites will use them and that will offset the cost of the Time-Out and Mirror promotions which they must lose money on?

    Tried 35 times with different emails (1 - 35@mydomain etc) - all 50p - no 25p or £8.75 but all different codes - suggest 50p is all that they do.

    CD-WOW's virgin.net promotion seems better than this one - at least it does give you £1 codes and even (rarely) £2 codes - http://www4.cd-wow.com/promotion.php?promo_refcode=15855_0
