£20 Voucher to spend at Figleaves (no minimum spend required!!!!) (merged) (CLOSED)

PhilUK_3

Well,

I think that people that ordered 18/20 pounds worth of goods and just pay 2 pouunds will not get NOTHIN.

People that ordered 30+ and used it will get the goods Its common sence that if people just use to abuse you will get nothing. However lxdirect does honour the goods

But you can not be mad at a company that will not honour it. YOU WIN SOME AND YOU LOSE SOME!

Now.. good luck if you get your order.

im not sure any company can withstand such a loss, are you happy with the possibility of people loosing their jobs and livleyhoods, i hope NOT!!!

Get real - no online company has to accept orders where goods are incorrectly priced. Tested case law since the days of the Argos 49p TV.

Thats exactly my point. people should stop complaining because they are within their rights to cancel oders, my point of loosing jobs was if they honoured all orders!!

this topic has had over 7000 views, assuming on average every one used two codes, thats a £280,000 loss to this company

I'm more interested in the implications that phone call could have on this site.
Figleaves may have suspected it had been posted on the net but now they know which particular site.
They may now do a 'Sainsburys' and ban MSE from posting discount vouchers in the future.
That's why I am annoyed. Thank you.

well if they do they are fully within their rights in my humble opnion

I think MSE needs to have a long hard think regarding why it was set up and the direction which it is heading to at the moment, the phrase " bleed each company till dry" comes to mind. I do realise that not every member has this attitude, but a vast number do! Something must be done, because this is getting out of hand and this particular case is only a one example, another one being the time when people started selling codes of LX direct of here on EBAY!!

Please people use common sense, dont abuse the system, it will only result in less and less real money saving oppurtunites in the future!!

So what if they don't honour the code - you win some you lose some! If it means figleaves staff still have jobs on Monday - then I don't mind not getting an over priced thong for free! Lets get things in perspective! Money Saving is good - but not at the expense of some poor persons (peoples?) jobs!

I Couldn’t Have Put It Better Myself :T

I don't see why anyone should be upset about Figleaves - they're an Internet trader and if they haven't realised by now that people TALK to each other via the web, or that they SHARE information then this has at least been a good wake-up call for them.
If companies intend to use the web for promotion they need to THINK through the implications of what they are doing i.e. if this offer was targeted only at customers they emailed then why not ensure their system can ONLY accept orders from the customers they sent the email to? Not rocket science is it?
