  • Thanks marcowil again for your help :)

    Did you receive email confirmation about the vouchers or a phone call ?

    I've had neither :(

    I received a phone call from Currys the day after I sent another email outlining all the problems, and I attached my screenshots.

    I sent the following addresses the same e-mail

    CURRYSWEBSALES@CURRYS.CO.UK
    SCCCSProcessed@dsgiplc.com
    Karin.Barkworth@dsgiplc.com
    customer.services@dsgiplc.com
    corporate.affairs@dsgiplc.com

    It was someone from Head Office (xx@dsgiplc.com) who then got back to me.

    Everything was then sorted out via email

    CS have rung, i'm getting vouchers for all the games and also for the controller (gave me a choice which I'm happy about!). All in 5-7 days.

    And if arushofblood got £190 in vouchers + the controller + King kong, I should be getting a tidy sum of vouchers (Makes the hours on the phone seem worthwhile)

    Thank you for your email which came to my attention today, please accept my
    apologies
    for the delay with my response.

    Having looked in to your order details the games have been processed and
    will be despatched
    shortly, unfortunately our Head Office are unable to issue vouchers as a
    replacement for the games.
    If you require any further assistance please do not hesitate to contact us
    again either via email
    or by calling our Aftersales Team on 0870 3331222.

    Kind regards

    ms01ma, if they were the games they offered in the first place: Condemned, Tiger Woods 06, Need for Speed, king kong, Fifa 06, then you wouldn't have much of a case.

    But also if you didn't get a controller you should argue that aswell.

    Anyway I think we're all lucky to at least have them honoring the deal eventually. They could've refused completely and had tons of returned xboxs!

    Ive just received my vouchers......£250!!!!!!!

    Anyone who wants my order as ref let me know
  • I was contacted and told they had to send king kong and controller, but I'm not complaining. Also said it should be around £190 of vouchers. Not bad at all!

    Can use the controller on PC aswell btw.
