    My OH and I want to see a movie tomorrow. She received a code that didn't work, then had to go out. I then received an 'amended' code in an email saying I 'may have received a code last night' (I hadn't) that was in error.

    The code I got worked _until_ the very last, when the Cineworld web site failed the booking for 'technical problems'.

    When I checked with my credit card company, they have been trying to reach me since Sunday to cancel my new card, as someone (not me) has been trying to use it 4 days after I signed up for the kgbdeals cinema deal.

    It gets worse: the only time this card has been used since November is for -- ta da! -- kgbdeals!!!!!

    Has anyone else but me had the card they used for kgbdeals attacked?

    No, all true. I'm glad to see card attack part is not a trend so far. I was probably just unlucky. The bank says someone was trying to buy from an Apple site, but if not because kgbdeals was hacked, it was probably from a number generator -- the bank can't even say if they had my name, and they didn't have my security code.

    The other part is just annoying. We've each had two codes that didn't work, so we'll try to get the pound back. We're just paying -- it's not worth the trouble.

    I have received my email (it was the one saying sorry we sent you the wrong code - here is the right one) it went into my hotmail junk folder though, so watch out for it! I have been to the Cineworld website and the code seems to work correctly - I didnt confirm I just closed the page as I am waiting for the other half to check his emails so we can book to see something together.
    All appears to be as it should so very happy with this offer - Thanks MSE!!
