Did anyone else get an email from Wilkinson Sword last week offering £1 off a razor. I didn't post it cos it didn't work.
Now I've just had this crazy email:
Dear Mrs K
"You recently received an email offering you a £1 off coupon towards your next purchase of Wilkinson Sword Quattro Titanium blades. This was unfortunately due to an administrative error at our email dispatch company.
We cannot apologise enough for this mistake.
As someone who has shown interest in Wilkinson Sword products in the past we can imagine this must be particularly frustrating for you. Once again we apologise and hope you will continue to show support for Wilkinson Sword innovation and promotions.
Yours sincerely
The team at Wilkinson Sword Quattro Titanium"
I emailed back to thanks them for such a fine piece of PR
GOOD GRIEF!!! Time they fell on their sword I think!
