    Go through Virgin Radio and they give you the code for signing up and it says this can be used on any order, new customers only. Anyway, even if you don't want to sign up you can't complain at £1.99 a bottle down from £5.49
    and that was the reason for my thread, it reads VIRGIN WINE SALE.

    Virgin wine have reduced wines on offer. I have ordered cases of red and white wine reduced from £5.49 to £1.99, it's good wine I have tried them before. If you go via https://www.virginradio.co.uk there is a code for £25.00 off It does state new customers, so I signed up with a new email address, free at yahoo.co.uk. Don't forget to go through https://www.greasypalm.co.uk for an extra 2.5%.
    36 bottles ordered for £52.63 = £1.46p per bottle.
    Hope this evens the score for all who had their orders canceled last week ENJOY!!!!

    Special message to All cynical Doubting Thomas I have just received delivery of 48 bottles of wine, the other 24 will arrive Saturday. That was done using the method above.
    To all of those who tried the thread I hope you enjoy your wine and the fact that you got your own back on Virgin for their last fiasco CHEEEERS!!!!!

    all the sale cases state that they cannot be used with any vouchers?


    "Warning: Introductory vouchers can only be used against non-promotional cases of wine (minimum 12 bottles).
    If you purchase a promotional case you will lose any introductory vouchers claimed.
    If you are mixing your own case please ensure you have a minimum of 12 bottles in your basket. "
    Received 4 of the 6 cases today 12.05pm. other 2 due Saturday

    Sorry didn't notice, to busy jumping up and down, but it was a big red van but def not Amtrak. Hope you have some on order
  • Well we just heard back from virgin wines saying that our case was delivered about a week ago ... the courier left it "hidden" as we weren't in ...

    Now the strange thing is that if I look back on our CCTV footage there was indeed a courier (about 2 hrs after they said he arrived) who rang, had a good look round the house and fences and departed. No card and no delivery.

    Virgin promises to replace any cases should they be left then pinched, seems like your courier didn't leave but pinched, I would contact Virgin (on the rediculous) and tell them about your CCTV. Good Luck
