    I'm not sure if it's a good sign or not but I'm now not able to change the gift options on two of my items. Delivery is due on the 10th and also a £3.50 order. Fingers crossed

    Same here! Delivery was pushed up to the 15th though, and saying "not yet dispatched" still.

    Same here, my order went in at around 7.30 am and I didn't use all the codes and the order is quite modest. My details still show as Items to be despatched soon:

    It looks like the modest orders are the ones being shipped late whilst the £3.50 orders are being shipped quickly.


    Mine was a £3.50 order and thats not been despatched! :(
    Delivery is estimated for the 14th, I ordered around 9.15am on the 3rd.
    I really think its down to what was in the order and stock depending!

    Order Date: 3 Dec 2009
    Recipient: Miss Wonderful :D;)
    Delivery service: Standard Delivery
    Items not yet despatched:

    If you used to 10% code and the 12.5% code, then the more of the alcohol gift sets which were 75% off were added, the more came off the total bill.

    It was strange, and I didnt even use the 15% off code. I did use the free delivery code though.

    woohoo - just got a despatch email through!

    Top marks to M&S for honouring these... though having read through the HDUK forum last night I wonder if they'll be honouring the people who put through £1000+ orders. I certainly hope not, if it weren't for a few being incredably greedy more people could have benefited this Christmas.

    My discounts were these,
    Vat - (automatic reduction)
    Spend & Dec- (Code I used)
    Food Gifts - (Automatic reduction)
    10% off - (Code I used)
    Gift Promo - (automatic reduction)

    My order total came to £3.50 but I wasnt expecting it too, I thought I would have been paying more than just delivery!
    After, I worked it as this, as the codes were 10% off and 15% off and the gifts were 75% off then its basically 100% off, total to pay, just delivery! This was of course before they fixed the glitch!!
  • Getting my order too!!! I love this site :)
