    I forgot they were being released again at half three. Just tried again and managed to register. Are there definitely still vouchers then?
  • Sorry if I'm being dense - I've succeeded in registering, and I realise that you don't get the credit immediately. But do I have to book the ticket now, in the hope that I do get the credit - given that I may not want to book it at all if I don't? Does registering automatically make me eligible for the £5 voucher?

    no... you just use the points to book a ticket once they are put
    on to your account

    Just registering will get you the voucher if you are in the first 10000..
  • yes it just worked at 15.58 in freshly opened Internet Explorer

    previously I tried in Chrome and internet explorer pasting the link in again and again, but always "booking down" message

    Qn.. do people living in the South near the server centre have a better chance of getting in first in these giveaways

    PS ..lets see if they send me lots of Spam
  • Thanks, im-lost (you're obviously less lost than I am!) :D

    It took me over an hour to sign up for an account earlier - then it wouldn't let me log in - now its finally decided to let me log in and I get the following message when clicking the Account/Loyalty button -

    "Sorry we were unable to verify your account details, your account registration will take 24 hours to complete in our loyalty system. Please try again later."

    Complete joke - email address farming operation just like the Crowdity/Ocado saga!

    Registered with them last time, and was definitely one of the first X to register (people who registered hours after me confirmed they got their £10, but I didn't.

    So I don't trust em, and would advise others to be cautious.

    Just registered - went through straight away. Not sure if I'll be one of those who gets £5. Just have to wait and see....
