I was really gutted about this voucher yesterday.

We have just had Waitrose introduced into my local Boots and they didn't sell it

Well my local Waitrose has been there decades..... and it didn't stock it at all.
SA said they had had LOADS of people coming in asking ..... bit of a strange "freebie" then.
I mean I know they are usually "while stocks last".... but to give a freebie in a specific store who don't even stock the product ????

What on earth is the point?

No problem in my Waitrose which is a normal store. OK as a freebie but I certainly wouldn't pay £1.19 for a small bottle which is just flavoured water!

Unfortunately can't find it on saynoto0870.com

Will be ringing from work tomorrow!

Anyone else having a problem getting through? Tried every hour yesterday till 5pm and twice already today but every call receives the answer message that there is no-one available to answer because of unprecidated demand etc. Am I the only one getting this?????

I'm getting the same message now. I did get through OK yesterday pm but I have another one to register.
Hope they haven't reached their limit & aren't taking any more calls!
Just have to keep trying.

Just tried again to register for the garden voucher & got through only to be told that they have reached their quota and cannot accept any more applications.
Not a happy bunny.

So cross, I sent an email to [EMAIL="offers@dailyexpressonline.co.uk"]offers@dailyexpressonline.co.uk[/EMAIL]. and had a moan. Success, they are going to send me a voucher & will enter my details manually on receipt of the voucher

At least you weren't being charged for calls then as I was!

After several more calls I eventually got through yesterday. Registered my daughter's at same time, asked if I could send both in same envelope, op went off to get instruction and came back on line to say a definite NO! But at least I finally got to register in time. Sorry you didn't, I would have been pretty aggrieved too, but pleased you got a result.
