    My confirmation emails arrived pretty much instantly, and the electronic invoices followed a couple of days later. No sign of the points yet but by the sounds of things they take a few weeks.

    I placed my order back in mid-march and still waiting for one more cable to be delivered from Dell.
    It took 6 weeks for the points to be credited to my account so you'll have to be patient to see if they'll honour the points for the sudden wave of cable purchases being made this week :)

    Just a thought - when I did this I spent a little extra and bought stuff that I actually need (memory cards for digital camera, a new mouse, etc) - at least if the points don't work I still end up with stuff I can make use of rather than some cables which are no good to me. Might be worth doing.

    Ditto - went for a laptop case, although it was £5 more than other shops. That's the gamble I guess?

    We did this too, got a cable for OH to connect his xbox to the PC so he can have it in his "man" room rather than hogging the Tele! and some of the more expensive cables about £44 all together i think but if it gets me nearly £90 worth of shopping vouchers im chuffed :D
