    Just had vouchers refused at Durham extra.
    "We don't take these any more, we uset to but don't anymore" and "well this one is out of date anyway" -receipt is one month old even though voucher is from today.

    doubly annoyed because it meant I had to put back the bottles of banrock I was going to purchase and even if I get the voucher situation sorted I have lost out on this offer.:(

    To be honest I think they would have relented, once I explained the situation they were considering giving me the money off- but only as a favour sort of thing .
    However as I was only getting more products to avail of this offer I was a bit wary of this. don't think I could afford thrre full price bottles of banrock at the minute.

    I don't think anyone there really understood the offer, and I was feeling a little sorry for them until I noticed the massive pricechecker signs on the way out. That made me a little angry,

    Just a heads up: Checked on Tesco about 5 minutes ago and it looks like the Banrock wine is going down to £5.49 from tomorrow.

    Hope this saves some people buying it up banking on getting lots back!

    I got the last 6 bottles in my T local store tonight at 10.49 / each, after discount 59.79, hoping to get back 65.96 DTD back :rotfl:
    If it works I will be one happy bunny.

    Hope it works out for you! I only got one bottle delivered tonight - I didn't think my nerves could take the gamble of £60+! A "free" bottle of wine is good a victory enough for me.

    Well that's interesting. How did that happen ?

    Tesco DIDN'T START this scheme until 28th February - just 16 days ago :)

    I'm not surprised they would refuse - I'd think it's a fraudulent claim if it was dated before 28/2

    Just thinking...the easter eggs that have gone from £1 to £2.50 now...if they're only £1 at Asda still, if we bought 2 (to avoid the 3 for 1) then we'd get £6 back meaning 2 eggs free with £1 to boot. Is that right?

    That interesting, reading the T&C and I can't see where it says you can't pricecheck items from before the 28th- it only mentions 28 days after the purchase.

    This particular voucher was only for £1.50 anyways- so not too important but can't see how the claim was fraudulent?
