    Why order so many? Its hardly suprising that companies dont honour things like this when people blatantly take the p!ss!!!

    Sorry, was that aimed at me? I reread my post and edited it to make it clearer. I didn't think an order for £0.01 would be accepted by my bank, probably £1.00 would be the minimum, so I decided to pass on this one. Some savings just aren't worth the aggro.

    Apparently my bank don't believe it's possible to buy things for £0.01 online! Should introduce them to MSE. :p

    No lol. Not at you at all. My card did the same,apparently 1p isnt an acceptable amount of money to spend but £1 is lol .
    I just find it a tad sad that some people need to start ordering 5+ just to 'grab the deal' so to speak,obviously debenhams arnt going to give someone 5 estee lauder sets for 5p and as soon as they see p!ss taking orders like that,they look into everyone else and start sending out cancelation emails :(

    on this occasion I must agree with you ...WHY?... when we know item is oos for others as they have stated.

    ALSO if youre bank does not accept £0.01 transaction then add other items to basket , im sure you would find something under £2.

    Recieved email from them too, £1.72 was total

    This email is not an order confirmation or order acceptance by us. Unless we have notified you that we do not accept your order or you have cancelled it, order acceptance and the creation of the contract between you and us will take place at the point the goods you have ordered are despatched from our warehouse to be delivered to the address you have given us.
