  • My order came today. It was absolutely superb. I think it might have been one of the best offers I have ever bagged from here so a huge thanks to op.

    Has the offer finished now cos I was thinking about getting some more

    Bit stressy here! Been out all day and I have come back to a card through the door from the company who are delivering Thorntons and Debenhams. It has on it 'by door', well there is naff all outside my door :eek: Not sure I have the energy mentally to deal with it today, so may call monday instead, but as if you would leave either a thorntons or debenhams parcel in a communal hallway for 12 flats :confused:. Hope not debenhams as it was the last in some sizes :(

    Just read last night as well that the company had thrown bits over people fences(debs thread), I had stuff taken delivered by next directory once, took them months to investigate and it was a nightmare :mad:
    I might be confusing with anothe of the many diff orders I've place with various places recently but wasn't there a delivery instructions box? I used to have to put "do not leave with neighbours" at my old address because they were all thieving scum :rolleyes:

    The code and offer are still in my basket so maybe it is still active :)

    Sammi- bee yes thorntons does give the option to leave 'somewhere safe' ... strange though some of the places where they have left the parcels dont seem very 'safe' !!

    Did anyone else have a problem placing their order Wednesday?

    I tried twice and both times was told - sorry problem with the site, try again later. Anyway didn't get to try again until Thursday but then received an e-mail to say my first order had been dispatched. I never received any confirmation that this order had been accepted.

    I don't want two lots (well obviously it is chocolate so I do want two lots really) so called Thorntons to cancel the second order. I was told that was fine and that my CC would have the charge for this order refunded and it would be cancelled. However have now received an e-mail to say this order has been dispatched too! I am never at home when my parcels arrive so I can't refuse delivery - I just hope Thorntons don't want me to pay to return it. :confused:

    I ordered about 10pm on Tuesday night. Delivery came sometime on Friday morning. I had 6 of the iced santas and reindeer so was very impressed with the speed of delivery.

    My choccy has arrived!! in a rush so can't open yet :o
    I'm sure it's all good :) and luckily the guy that delivers brings me all my next/mandmdirect orders plus some others so 'knows' me (I am so a shopaholic!) so the box looks pristine :D
