    Hi

    Im guessing i've now been classed as a really annoying customer :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl:

    My friend just sent me a message saying she received hers this morning so she's off on a shopping spree today!

    She did ask whether she could take the vouchers out of the book instead of causing queues at checkouts whilst ripping the vouchers out there, I'm not sure about it though, anyone know if they become invalid if taken out of the book before getting to the checkout? :confused:

    My other friend received hers this morning, good job really as she's not the most patient person on the planet and was tearing her hair out waiting for them!!

    My friend who got hers first has already spent them, she took them out of the book and had no trouble but as I said to her, they could've been given to her as a gift, we both felt a bit silly then after all the panicking over them becoming invalid, having said that it was early in the morning when we had that discussion!!!:o

    Anyway I digress, they are on their way to you, slowly but surely!

    Anyone still waiting for their vouchers? Getting worried now - my sister's an agent and still hasn't had them! As someone said earlier we usually have them in October. If they do come soon I don't know whether to go out and spend the lot as soon as possible, usually I have quite a bit left over and in January I usually treat myself to something when the sales are on, but is it safe to wait?

    I remember in January this year I had about £100 left of choice vouchers (highstreet vouchers) and all of a sudden no one would take them! Luckily we had replacement vouchers instead.

    I received my vouchers this morning at long long last. :j :j Not for the 17th as promised. Am still awaiting my gifts and as soon as they arrive i'll be contacting Home Farm Hampers and telling them they can keep their 2007 catalogue.
    They have given out incorrect information on various occasions so don't trust them with my money anymore.

  • Haven't received vouchers yet. Agent was told 3 weeks from paying in final payment. She paid in payment on 30th October so 3 weeks up tomorrow. Keeping fingers crossed.
  • Got a letter at the weekend saying they 'hope' to have completed the voucher despatching by the end of November.

    Seeing as I paid the final balance back in early October it's a bit annoying to say the least - my Park ones arrived within a matter of days of the final payment, and Family delivered last week (ordered small amounts with all three as was using up commission/special offers).

    earthmother, I know how you feel. My sister who is the agent had the same letter which stated that she would get the vouchers end of November! This is annoying as every year she always has sent the final payments early and received the vouchers in October.

    Well I received a phonecall from her this morning saying that the vouchers arrived today! :T Hopefully yours will arrive very soon. We have been very worried about the delay and also wonder how safe they will be - whether I should go out and spend the lot as soon as I can or if I hold on to the ones I have left over to treat myself in January sale!!
    Good luck.
  • vouchers received today. Will now go and spend spend spend.
