    Do you need to start a credit account to use the voucher or can you use a credit card to pay and still get the discount?

    Thanks

    I'm confused. I ordered the tent, everthing went through OK but I was never asked for my Visa card number or anything! I got confirmation by e.mail to say my order had been accepted and would be with me on Monday but I definatley haven't paid! :eek: will they bill me I wonder?

    You can bet your bottom dollar they will....almost certainly this is why they tolerate a loss leader such as this.

    You're gonna get spammed by email (& by post) with all sorts of stuff now!!!

    i paid by my debit card and got it ok. I did already have an account with them i bought a dalek at christmas.

    You have to tick the box when it says payment method.

    diamonds you have probably opened about a credit account with them and they will bill you for it. If you are worried give them a ring they are super friendly (well the one i got was anyway!!)

    This is a good deal if you are alredy a member but if you are yet to sign up don't you have to pay £8 for the catologue? Ok you get the money back when u spend that but theres still a downside. Even with this though it is a good deal. Obviously this stuff is only going to be suitable for high summer use in britain.

    You don't pay anything for the catalogue...Diamonds regarding payment..apparently they will do a credit check on you first order as I had the fiasco in december trying to get a pooh bear bike..I placed my order etc.Thought I was getting a cheap bike for my son for xmas,they asked for no money and I didn't get the bike as by the time they agreed my account it had sold out..I haven't even got a credit account with them as my first order i placed with them last week was by debit card.Sorry for straying but that's what happened with the last bargain..we all got confirmation emails but no product...
