    I got the vouchers! I got the vouchers! :j Now to get them to cancel my account so that I'm not stung for yet another month. Will be giving such offers a wide berth in future. Thanks for all the advice and hope everyone gets sorted too.
  • Thanks macaroni, queensway-boy & codger :)

    I also forgot to mention that I emailed Lovefilm to ask where my voucher was ... they emailed me back saying I did not qualify cause I had cancelled BLAH BLAH. I got home that night and the vouchers has already been delivered .... so they clearly just dont have a SCOOBY what they are doing!

    Chemical warfare is illegal. Carpet bombing has been outlawed. Weapons of Mass destruction are expressly prohiobited unless contained in a secret dossier dropped from a great height by a Mr Scarlet. Or Ms Scarlet. Or Colonel Plum (whichever is head of MI5 nowadays).

    Best thing is to await the attack of the hobnail boots from MSE, which is actually far more intimidating than any of the above.

    Also: see kittykat's great post -- Lovefilm don't have a clue wot they're saying or doing.

    Especially when they're saying and doing it to customers.

    Your voucher could well turn up tomorrow. So could mine. So could boc's.





    Darn it. I've looked everywhere on the MSE smilies and not one of 'em represents a flying pig.

    Big welcome to clucky!

    Also (small print) remember on whom you have to spend your £15 voucher, sorry, but it's in the new Lovefilm T&Cs. . . ;)

    . . . when you get it, I meant. :j

    like many i got charged 9.95 for getting the dvd back a day late! (when you use the service you seem to get a 2 day turn around on dvds, but when you send back to cancel it suddenly takes 4 days!!)
    i complained to lovefilm and got a discourteous reply saying i wouldnt get vouchers, there fore complained to boots via email, who forwarded my complaint to lovefilm, got an email of a senior customer relations guy who said i would be entitled to vouchers and was on the list, however as i hadnt received any he would arrange another set to be sent out, hey presto 15 boots vouchers yesterday.....and another 15 pound today!!!! checked my advantage account and got 239 points as well!!

    So in the end i received approx £32.39 worth of boots stuff for 9.95!!

    who says lovefilm are bad!!!!

    wouldnt touch em with a barge pole again though!!!
