    You can get more just claim under the highest cashback policy :)

    rpoints.com/hcp/

    Your claim has been accepted. Note that this other reward site deducts £5 from its members' earnings each year, and we reflect that in awarding Highest Cashback claims. Your latest claim takes your total claimed points to 400, so you would need to submit further claims in excess of 100 before we can award you any extra points

    Thanks for using Rpoints for this transaction, you made a wise choice. Other sites may claim to pay higher rewards, but nobody matches Rpoints for reliable payouts, choice of payment methods and a guaranteed response to claims and queries if things go wrong. So by using our Highest Cashback Promise (which we hope you'll agree is quick and simple to use), you get the best of all worlds!

  • I ordered three items including the Tom Tom. Collected by box from City Link tonight and Tom Tom is missing. Delievery note shows it as inside box. Customer services shut by the time I phoned. Let you know tomorrow the outcome but its all come off my card.

    No doubt stolen by someone working for City Link unfortunately. Always check items when you are given them there and then. Don't be rushed by a courier sticking a parcel on your doorstep, asking you to sign. Check, then sign. If items are missing, perhaps the best thing to do is write this next to where you sign or refuse delivery.

    They start from £100 nowadays and, tbh, are a bit like washing machines IMHO in the sense that no matter how high spec one you get, you really only end up using a few of the features, anyway.

    Dear ,



    Thank you for placing an order with Robert Dyas Home shopping.



    You are receiving this email because the order you have placed with us contains a TomTom One V2 Satellite navigation system. This product is part of our new store to door catalogue that was launched on the Robert Dyas website on Friday 22nd September. The TomTom One V2 was priced incorrectly at £199.99 instead of the intended price of £249.99. This incorrect price coupled with our 20% new customer discount means that we have experienced exceptionally high demand for this item.



    We will be honouring all orders placed for the item but we will not able to meet our normal delivery promise of 5 working days. We will begin to dispatch orders for the TomTom during the week beginning Monday 4th October. You will receive an email from us when your order has been dispatched containing a tracking number for your parcel.



    Please accept our apologies for the delay. If you would prefer to cancel your order rather than wait please call our customer services team on 08454503004 (Option 2).



    Yours Sincerely,



    Robert Dyas Home Shopping Team

    Interestingly enough, my order says inventory fulfilled - I emailed Robert Dyas this morning to ask when it would be dispatched and I got an email to tell me it was out of stock due to high demand. What exactly does "inventory fulfilled" mean if it doesn't mean the item is in stock and its been allocated to my order?.

    I guess this is to weed out the people who are desperate for one and to save them some money.

    At least they are honouring the price.

    I should hope they are seeing as £199.99 seems to be the standard price for this item everywhere else as far as I can see. Disgraceful. I can't see any errors or misprices here, they've simply offered 20% off anything and are kicking up a stink when people actually take advantage of it. Upping the price above the going rate to balance the perfectly legit offer they're running is very poor form i.m.h.o

    I agree, but they could have cancelled the order which would have been worse.
