    Hmmm....the funny thing is that they have changed the email message that I have received - I guess they can do that with the html picture - as the email initially said that I could print the email out and take it into a store to claim my freebie. Now it reads if I "like" their facebook page (however if I still hover over it - the linked message still says that I can print it out!). Sneaky....very sneaky. I will email them also and ask why the email has been changed. Please could people update if they receive anything. Thank you!

    Still waiting as well. Just sent a chaser em via http://uk.loccitane.com/FO/Services/ContactForm.aspx.

    Not holding out much hope.

    This facebook entry is probably just spam to get everyone to subscribe to their newsletter. I will give it another 24hrs before I unsubscribe/unlike my entry in facebook and also the newlsetter.

    Not impressed.

    Crabtree and Evelyn recently did a similar promotion where I had to "like" their new perfume and I actually received a £12 bottle through the post - so not all of things like that are spam! Keep your fingers crossed! :)

    Just emailed them:

    "I recently received an email stating that I could print it out for a 75ml bottle of your olive body lotion. However, I now notice you have changed it to if I like your fb page. I have also posted on Moneysavingexpert which has got you quite alot of publicity and a few disappointed people - I hope you will honour your promise. So my question really is - will people receive their email in order to claim the "free" product?"

    I will let you know if I receive a response!
  • Hallo

    I was sent the email to claim the free lotion yesterday. It said it was for liking them on Facebook - I did that some time ago so could this perhaps be only for those who "liked" some time ago and they already had email details?

    Hmmm - I hadn't liked them on fb up until yesterday but received the email. Have you read the email again - they've now changed their message (in fact I have just opened my again and they've removed the whole message!!!!). Plus its open to all on fb now? Don't know whats going on....maybe they are scared we will all be queuing up for our freebies! :rotfl:

    I've liked the page, but the only tabs i can see across the top are : Wall, Info, Recruitment, Testimonial, Foundation, Photos, Video, Poll and Verdon Contest... where do i need to go?
  • Just spoken to customer services. They are having technical problems and said that the coupon should be sent out by email later today hopefully.
