Did anyone try to use this yet? Saks at David Lloyd ( the only one in NI) closed suddenly on Monday, probably to avoid offering appointments to NOTW voucher holders.

I'm going to follow this up if it's a decision taken locally not to honour the voucher. I'd be interested to hear if others have information.

    Its a tradition for hairdressers to close on a Monday. Most of the big ones in the city centre don't. But smaller ones still close.

    The DL people said they'd closed suddenly. They weren't open yesterday when someone called in to see what they were at.

    Hi -I rang on Tuesday 1st July -the phone rang for about 15 mins but eventually a girl answered. I asked to make an appointment for the NOTW promotion - she said "all of those wee promotional appointments have gone".
