No worries - I understand now.

I was trying to get to the bottom of the 'over the limit' e-mails people were getting the other day using some data that people had given towards the end of thread 3 at an unearthly hour last weekend when pretty much only me and Stebiz were online and one of the possibilities I thought of was that there were some tracking cookies as an outside guess but defo not their current tactic (and I think they would have to declare this under DPA rules on the T&C's if they did) but I was just clarifying the research I'd done had drawn a blank.

In short, I reckon we're currently safe on that front and I still strongly believe the 'over the limit' e-mail kicks in when the first voucher to kick off any new set of spends combined with the total value of other spends is based on a £50 uncapped ASDA value.

Sounds overly complicated but don't think the 'over the limit' issue has been as prevalent as it was earlier in the DTD days so probably a non-issue now.

Simons theory seems to tie in with most of whats been happening - personally, I reckon he's right and, even if he's not and Tesco have something else up their tatty sleeves, then its simple enough to do what Simons has suggested. I've been clearing cookies each time (tiny bit of a nuisance as I have to sign in here each time but hardly a problem) and I am also adding in the first receipt total used on new addys. Can't do any harm and might do a lot of good.

So far, everything is working well - I hope I've not just jinxed myself by saying that! Thanks for the useful suggestions Simon.

Still no vouchers for me from yesterday, been back to T's and checked plenty of times and cleared my cookies any ideas ayone?

I was having that problem with one particular receipt but someone posted yesterday that if you keep hitting your back button and submiting again you'll eventually get success. It worked for me this morning.

i need to do a proper big shop today not done one for about 3 weeks as we've been living on dtd + stuff from the cupboard, but my brain is stuck in dtd mode. everything i think we need, i automatically try and think of some thing on the ss list that 'would do' instead, or if its something we need thats on the ss i can't bare to buy it because i'll loose the dtd when buying other stuff:o
i think i'll just go to asda!!!:rotfl:

lost 1 just yesterday for £12. I had 4 receipts on my bed, and i was about to enter the details when i accidentally knocked them down the back of the bed. To put it mildly, its a mess down there, and after 30 minutes of searching, with a torch, i still couldn't find the last one.

yuk !!! :d

I'm having the same problem. Did 3 shops on Thursday at different stores. Used 3 made up emails for receipts. Still no vouchers.
Getting worried now as with my last shop the CSM recalled my receipt as when she checked it she noticed I had previously used a voucher to pay. I was kept waiting while she went to make a phone call! When she returned she put it through the till again but gave me her best 'trout pout!'

How bizarre! Just checked on my 'real' email accounts and BINGO sitting there were 2 out of the 3 vouchers but with (12) and (15) next to the titles.........obviously the number of attempts.........but I entered them on my 'made up' accounts!

I'm thinking of popping in to Mr M - it's my local store & I honestly can't remember when I was last there - I've had a £5 voucher in my purse for weeks
