i ordered both games on the day of the first post also had a security check, but then yesterday i recieved a call from my card issuer saying had i authed a $1 transaction from canada the transaction was at the same time as i was buying the games.
i told my card issuer i knew nothing about this transaction so my card as now been stopped and a new one is being issued.
they did not manage to take any money from my card but i thought i should let you know so you can all check your accounts/cc's.
and im not even going to get the games now.

The £2 offer couldn't/shouldn't have been a mistake as the home page actually had a big advert on it (last night) saying Games from £2 and these were the only ones at that price.

I think they're hoping that they can cancel many orders on the basis of no response or mistakes.

Ad is still there at the moment

You're right in so far as the ad does say games from £2.... however it doesn't say PS2 games from £2, it actually says games from £1.
If you look at the PC games, there are some there from £1 upwards.

This was evidently a case of a pricing error - as all other sale items are the exact same price in store as they are online.

As for the poster who said they could get the store to order it for them at that price - I was offered that too, but the system wouldn't physically let them do it, so I'd be surprised if you get any success.

Received my Finding Nemo for £2 this morning

The Incredibles is still back on security check

Security checks here too....obviously not so random then!

miniemma

rang the 0870 number - didn't have to be on hold long at all

was assured that every 30 to 50 orders they pick a random one for security check !! LOL

she will ring me back when status changes, says these items are despatched from UK so will arrive next day as long as despatched before 5pm

still not got my fingers crossed

I rang them as well and was told it wasn't a dodgy email and that they do request extra info at times.

flufff

odd mines being security checked too.........load of codswallop

scoobydo_2

I ordered mine early on the first day offfer was posted I've had 2 emails from them and the security email . responded to that and order ir now saying cleared security check awaiting dispatch .

Possible theory for the multiple security checks? They had loads of orders from the same link? I know, probably rubbish but I'm trying to look on the positive side as I know from previous experience that Woolies online are total pish....:rotfl:


Edit: Forget the link theory, my account now states:

Finding Nemo Playstation 2

£2.00 Thu, Aug 3, 2006 Not Currently Available £2.00

The Incredibles Playstation 2

£2.00 Thu, Aug 3, 2006 Back Order or Pre-Release £2.00

Like I have said already, Woolies are useless! Instead of just saying 'sorry, it was a mistake' they stupidly go through the 'security' route. An embarrassment of an online presence.
