    Why is everyone moaning when they get charged? Did anyone here actually RECEIVE the code through the post, order THEN get charged?......I doubt it. If you are going to use a code that was not meant to be for you then you get charged then so be it, its a gamble of sorts. Don't get me wrong I'm not trying to put a downer on it but its the way it is. Mine worked ok as I got the code the right way.

  • i never even gave em my real namee :mad:
  • Used the code 4 times on myself and wifes account.
    All items arrived with no charge.
    Also placed another order with £10 off £20.The main item was out of stock,but they did send the other free with another free 1980's b/w portable TV and welcome pack!(on an account that has been active 2 years)
    These codes are a gamble with empire,it's a bit like playing a fruit machine.

    I agree. I was sent it and have used it with no problems. Clearly they are charging people who are not entitled to use it.

    I received it through the post, addressed to me as I have an existing account with empire. My order arrived today & YES I have been charged. Usually I would return it with "discount not applied" on the return slip, that way it costs them in delivery & pick up for thier mistake, however in this case I like the item in question & think (for once) that the quality is worth the price so I will keep it & phone my next order through & ask for my discount then.

    For those who did not receive the code and have been charged, just return the item - it doesn't cost anything! You've lost nothing. Some you win, some you lose, it's always a gamble using discount codes that haven't been sent to you personally.

    You'll receive a statement from them with payment details.

    I'm not understanding people returning there 'no longer freebies' - when this code was first posted everyone was saying things like 'wow so cheap' - 'wanted one for ages' and now they have to pay £4.99 its no longer needed???:confused:
    I too got charged - yes i was a bit put out - but I still got a bargain so no intentions of returning. And to be honest i wouldn't send for something just cos it was free if i didn't want it.
