    I just tried a second order [this follows one for about £3 yesterday] and I got the message "usage exceeded" !

    Are they DELIBERATELY trying to lose customers??:mad:
    No I think it is in terms and conditions - one use only. Solution would be to sign up to HMV again and use a partner's details. Hope this helps
  • I went online today and ordered this although it says that it is not available till 5 Nov. The code worked and it has cost me £10.39 for the set and my bank will be debited when it is sent out.
    Thank you.
  • If it's 20% off though how can you exceed usage? How is 2 £30 orders different from one £60?

    Thats exactly what I thought too, Mick. But trust me, I tried about 4 times. And my first order really was only £3! I've now gone elsewhere for the stuff I wanted.
  • I'm not disputing what happened. It amazes me that it did
  • Has anybody got their order yet? No sign of mine...still shows "Open Order"

    My orders are just being sent out I've received 6 of 11 items I ordered but some are on order from the supplier (Christmas films)

  • I ordered from HMV on Thursday (it took ages to go through), and I received my order Monday morning.

    Weird, I ordered three CDs, and they came in separate packages.

    Well pleased.

    Order the CD Wow, and have heard nothing. I even rang their customers services, could not make myself understood. When finally he found my order, he said he could not took anything, but pass it to another department. If nothing happens, I will contact Worldpay and esculate the problem.
    Emailing them was no good.

    Hope I'm wrong but the last few times I bought from HMV it took an age for delivery. If, even their web site is slow (with volume), it doesn't look good if you want stuff quickly!

    I found this too - no comparison to cd-wow or Play.com as far as delivery goes. However, this time I'm ordering christmas presents so it's not such a problem. Wouldnt use them for anything I wanted in a hurry though.
