    Are you sure it isn't just your PC? I've been on their site a couple of times today and it's working fine.

    Was going to order 24 bottles for £48, then realised that if I ordered 36 for £72 I could use the Virgin VIP voucher, so it only cost £47 for £36 bottles (plus postage) icon10.gif

    My only regret is that I'd ignored this thread for a while as was trying to be good and not order any more wine! And by the time I looked and realised that my all-time fave wine (Volcanic Hills Irsai Oliver) was on the warehouse clearance, there were only 2 bottles left in stock. Tried ordering them and someone else got in before me and I ended up with none!

    Does anyone know if, seeing as it has been in this warehouse clearance, that means that Virgin won't be getting this wine in again? I do hope not, as it's the best I've had in ages by far and was getting quite attached to it.

    I would expect them to have it in again, once they move to their new warehouse ;)
    Thanks to all who post constructively.

    Hi Roger,

    I didn't realise they were moving to a new warehouse, thought they were just having a clear out of old stock! That's good then, I'll keep my eyes out.

    Thanks icon7.gif

    Both my husband and I ordered last night as follows:

    12 bottle(s) of Oakland Ridge Rose NV
    12 bottle(s) of Cavatina Cori 03/04
    12 bottle(s) of Cavatina Cori 03/04

    Subtotal = £71.64
    Delivery = £5.99
    Account Balance = £25.00
    AMOUNT CHARGED = £52.63



    YOUR ORDER
    4 bottle(s) of Naked Western Cape Chardonnay 2005
    9 bottle(s) of Cavatina Cori 03/04
    13 bottle(s) of Cavatina Cori 03/04

    Subtotal = £63.74
    Delivery = £5.99
    Account Balance = £25.00

    Some of these wines were only £1.99.
    You have to buy 12 or 13 and spend £60, hope this helps.

    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!!!!

    YIPPPEEE!!! just taken delivery of 4 cases, other 2 cases arriving Saturday, due to tomorrow being Good Friday, and boy will it be a Good Friday, revenge is sweet, or sometimes medium dry!!

    How long does virgin wine usually take to deliver? I put in an order on Thursday at lunchtime and it is still being assembled. I assume the Easter weekend has slowed things down.

    It usually takes a week - although can be sooner. I'd assume it may be a little longer when you take Easter into account.
