    That's great JC, can you tell me what they gave you as your delivery date please? I ordered about half 8 and my delivery date is due the 14th

    My delivery date is the 8th, I don't know how they come up with the dates- another order I made shortly after for books was given estimate of the 11th. Perhaps it depends what other stuff you have in your order.

    If they were, it would only to be to ask if they had internet access so they could list it all on eBay no doubt. :mad:

    Nah the 700 fizz order was a reference to a wind up post over on HotDeals UK, there was no such order.....also ebay don't allow sales of alcohol.
    Festive fizz back in stock, looks promising for those who are waiting on these.

    Thanks for the heads-up, just placed an order as even without the extra 25% a couple of the codes still work.

  • they have taken off the bottle of whisky, leaving the cocktail book set. They have also upped the price from £3.50 to £6.97 - which I don't want to pay for the book. The cancel option has gone, so I have sent them an email asking to cancel.

    I don't really see that cancelling some parts of orders and then charging more for the remaining bits is particularly fair (or legal).

    Mine's still saying Not yet dispatched, AND the estimated date has changed to 15th December (previously 11th)....Not looking good! :o

    Edit: just noticed they removed the Festive fizz from my order as well. :(

    Still working. Ordered 2 Fizz sets, 2 port sets and 2 whiskey sets for £10.32 inc delivery (down from £56.50 inc delivery). Someone nabbed the last wine rack set from my basket though!
    Got an email today to say that my order has been dispatched. :T

    I ordered after the school run so guess around 9.30.

    I ordered quite a lot and price was £3.50.

    My festive fizz and port and mints are not yet moving (11 dec)

    Dipatching soon are whisky collection and after dinner selection (11 dec)

    So there is hope for people who ordered late and used codes for £3.50 total.

    no-one can sell these on ebay as alcohol is forbiden, so the person that ordered 700 is going to either have to flog it on the streets or give it away!!
    Envy is the most stupid of vices, for there is no single advantage to be gained from it.:A
  • I had an order confirmation through - I ordered a fair few bottles of fizz (but not in 2 figures let alone 3) as presents and some port - it came to £3.50. I ordered just after 9am - it was down for a 8th Dec delivery from the start (I wonder whether the date variation is postcode related ie they might have more than one dispatch centre).

    I am very pleased to say the least. :j
