    I've looked at the T&C's and the only help I can offer is that it says this applies to standard cards the dimensions of 254x175 folded.

    Thanks but didn't work for me. Registered, chose 3 standard cards and went to checkout cost was about £9, instead of £3. Tried loads of times then gave up.

    I had same problem I didnt follow through with order just left them in my basket. Be interested to see how you get on when I registered said I was entitled to them and would come off at checkout but didnt! Took me ages as well very flustrating:mad:
  • The website is v strange. I kept trying to put a card in the basket yet this error message appeared and seems to make no sense.
    "Please specify the product required option(s)."
    There's only one product listed - a bloomin' card!

    I tried this and couldn't get it to work, kept wanting to charge me full price. Well after giving up and then checking my emails late yesterday I noticed an email from Clintons asking to verify my account, I registered with them to create the cards. I clicked the email and logged my account, the cards i had previously created were still there and I went through to the checkout to see if the price had changed. The price was now sitting at £4.35 - so it was giving me the cards for 99p but still charging me the postage.

    So if you just registered check your emails to see if verifying the account maybe helps sort the price out.
