    Just ordered one with the £20 pound code. Fingers crossed now.
    Haven't paid anything though. SO if it's not what I want I'll be sending it back.

    Well...I sent mine back! It looked ok and was the same one advertised on the website. It had plenty of good features and seemed great value for money. However... (1) the picture quality was very poor. Unsharp with bad purple fringing on anything and everything! (2) The camera automatically reverted back to default settings when turned off, so you had to change ISO, flash etc again every time you turned the camera on. (3) Flash pictures had a very unnatural blue tint (4) If the camera automatically chose a higher film speed (iso200 or 400) the images produced had horrid black specks all over.

    All in all not even worth the measly £21 paid.

    PS...I was charged £35.99 even though I used the £15 off coupon. I even had an email to confirm the order at £20.99 ! I rang the automated service and was eventually put through to a human being. I explained I was charged too much and he tapped in some details and told me to ring the following day to request a refund to my switch card. I did this( went through automated service again) spoke to a human being again and eventually the £15 refund went through. I'm wondering now I've sent the camera back, if I'll get a credit to my empire account (that was opened for me even though I didn't request it) rather than a straight cash refund to my bank account? In which case I'll have to go through that bloody automated system again to close the empire account and get my money refunded.....aaaghhhhh!!!!

    Well.... camera is here.... order code discount was not applied

    rang them... apparently I should have filled in the order code twice....even though it's on my order confirmation.... silly old sausage fingers dunder head me.... all my fault apparently.

    But.. they going to apply the discount now and will show on my statement when arrives... The advisor was very nice though, i was king, if dunderhead king.

    The camera sent is a concord 3346z

    I can't comment on quality of pics as when i plugged it in my computer burst into flames. Only jokin.

    Well I searched using the product code and it couldn't find it, so I just looked at the digital cameras and now this model appears to be £79.99. I guess the offer has finished?
