I have online banking but this transaction is not yet showing, and the delivery is due tomorrow. I am considering refusing the delivery rather than me having to pat £4.50 to send it back IF I get charged the £29.60.

Ah bit of a tough situation :undecided

Is it worth cancelling this order immediately?

In my tracking area it says my delivery date should be 2nd Jan, anyone elses the same/different?

My is the same.

I've just emailed them to see if they will honour it and they should reply and let me know though I'm probably just drawing attention to myself.

Hi there, Ive just checked my bank account and littlewoods have debited my account by £29.60 on 27th Dec and then have credited by account with £25.00 today, Im not sure if they will then re-debit me that £25 or not.......will wait and see what happens..........still swithering about whether or not to accept delivery.........will have to examine my options xx

Is this legal? Can companies credit and debit credit cards without any notification? The code used may not have been valid, but this access to our bank accounts with no notice to the customer seems less than fair.

There are a number of problems with this fiddle now:

a) too many people have ordered the phone - this will ring alarm bells
b) some ***** have phoned up about their orders - this will ring alarm bells louder
c) LX Direct orders are processed manually after the initial acknowledgement - this will ring alarm bells even louder
d) No doubt some people have made multiple orders using same codes to same address - this will ring alarm bells
e) People seem to think that it is illegal for LX Direct to make debits from their bank accounts if unauthorised discount codes have been used. It isn't - you have accepted their terms and conditions when you placed your order:

"Where you have redeemed a promotional code or any other offer against your order, acceptance of this order is subject to our verifying that the code has been issued to you personally, that you comply with all the terms of the offer and qualify for the code. In the event that the code has not been issued to you for your personal use or you do not comply with or qualify for the offer, we shall have the right to reclaim the value of any discount from you and the price of the order will be adjusted..."
