    Those of you that have won tights - I won tights too and have been given a code number in the email to quote on the website. However, after putting the code in it still asks for my debit card details before I can receive the tights. If I've won them why do they need this? I'm a bit hesitant about filling it in.

    I didn't have to put my card details in - I wouldn't have accepted if they had wanted them. The order has gone through, as I got an email confirming my order. Sorry can't help any other way.
    They will have made a big mistake if this wasn't genuine .....

    I didn't get asked for card details either. I have received an order confirmation with an invoice total of £0.00. hth

    The large numbers of winnings is ringing alarm bells. I seem to remember a scam once before with a a company giving away free tights and then people finding they were receiving tights every month together with an invoice. I hope that is not the case for this competition.

    I think they were 'Silkies'.

    If I remember rightly I put the tights into the 'basket' and then went to checkout and put in the promo code - maybe then I updated basket or it did it itself and it showed that the tights cost £3 and the code took £3 off to make the balance nil. I then had to put the details in but all the card details were in greyed out boxes

    I won a pair too!!!

    I was beginning to feel a bit left out!! :rotfl:

    Am just going to order a pair for darling dd (to cheer her up - she has the Chicken pox atm :cry: )

    I used to use silkies - they tights were great - so good in fact that I didn't need them as often as they wanted to send them!!! lol

    ;)

    Edit: Just ordered! fairy tights - how cute!!
    I put the code in and hit update - when I went to checkout I created a new account and the card details were there but not able for me to select them. hth.
