    Can I please clarify this? I'm still a R&R "virgin"...

    My understanding is that you bought 3 phones and were charged £49.99 = £149.97. It should have been £45.99 each so you got £149.97 back plus the phones???


    Your understanding is correct.

    Had another good day today, compliments of Mr. T.

    T-Mobile Nokia 3120 Mobile Phone PAYG - Sel £45.99 - charged £49.99 - Bought THREE.

    was the phone on an expired Yellow promotional sign? When did the offer expire? What store do you use?

    I'm sure I'm not the only one to be pretty amazed about that particular haul from one store. Did the CS staff not ban you from the store?

    Perhaps it's the cynic in me, but I don't understand how seeing the games discounted elsewhere would let you know they would scan at the high price?

    edit: oh AND the same CS person forgot that it was you who asked for the price check? How INCREDIBLY fortunate..

    How about a scan of your receipt to convince all us doubters?


    (slightly off topic) When did Jackanory get taken off the air? I used to like listening to the stories on there...:rolleyes:
    I spelt my username wrongly on purpose, by the way!

    Yes, it was on an expired yellow SEL which ran out today in Lowestoft.

    Image on its way of receipt, hopefully, for doubters.

  • I don't doubt you mcdonag, I'm more in awe. I like your posts and have benefitted from a few of them myself, so thanks for sharing. Now back to Tesco (just been to use more of those toiletry/healthcare leaflets (they're good sh*t)) to try and look for this 3210......
  • Oh, and for anyone who wants images in their posts, you need a hosting website. Then you insert the image using the URL that they supply.

  • Oh, McDonag, brilliant, brilliant, BRILLIANT. I can hardly type for laughing and wiping the tears from my eyes.

    There are so many hats which are going to be eaten round here! Come on you lot, apologise to McDonag.

    Convincing enough for me. Am just amazed there wasn't a huge scene. Not only did you get EVERYTHING refunded, but its a massive total for one transation. When people have been banned for so much less it's pretty amazing.

    Can you predict 6 lottery numbers for us as well please?
