    Utterly ridiculous. Sent in my 4 Knork vouchers after loyally buying (and eating!) 4 packs of Chicago Town.

    So, fast forward to today and got a letter from them saying "no Knork for !!!!!!_face, you've not sent receipts".

    Had no idea they wanted receipts!!! :mad:

    They didn't even refund the cost of my stamp!

    Where on Earth do they think I would have gotten my packs from? There are many legitimate reasons not to keep receipts for a poxy pizza. Do they think I would've hacked into boxes in the supermarket do get the darn Knork illicitly??

    What is wrong with Chicago Town?!

    It's beyond reprehensible. I'll admit I BOUGHT the darn pizzas because I thought the Knork sounded like a useful tool and a bit of fun. Otherwise I'd avoid them as they're not the most healthy... but a useful post-pub snack. :D

    Ridiculous waste of time. I'm never buying Chicago Town pizzas again.

    Martin Lewis - can you please start a campaign to help get us our honestly-deserved Knorks?! :T
    Long live the faces of t'wunty.

    I got mine too. It's a newer type of knork which doesn't have a sharp edge but instead has a bevelled edge which cuts through food if you use a rocking motion.

    I got mine no problem and I sent in asda receipts that just said frozen pizza! Can you not get their details if you google chicago town?

    I had that reiept to. I thought they may have been funny so i put a little dash next to it so they knew.
    I remember collecting the tokens it was painstaking as sainsburys didnt give me the reciept for some of them, luckily managed to get some and sent of for 2 as id wasted the time effort and money. mine came quiet quick. i hope you all get it sorted and manage to recieve the knorks you sent off for :)
    it might not be much, but its better than a kick in the teeth:rotfl:

    Been waiting months for mine, in fact forgot all about it till I read this thread!

    I did receive a letter about a month ago saying that they were out of stock and apologised for the delay but they would be with me shortly....

  • Can you believe it?

    Out of the blue I got an email promising a Knork some months after my complaint to them.

    No apology. But anyway, it finally arrived.

    It's... alright; nothing special. Solid and heavy. No sharp edge though.

    More a fork than a knork.

    What a palava and an anticlimax. Still, thought I had to report the latest in the saga. :)
