Just purchased a laptop from PC World but the £50 voucher promised which swayed the deal with PCW, has not yet appeared. Anyone else received the voucher yet?

    Did you buy in-store or online?

    If in-store - it should print out straight after the receipt.

    What a crap offer. It can't be used if you negotiate a price with the store, it can only be used within a specific fortnight and you have to spend more then two hundred pounds.

    If you can't haggle fifty quid off a PC, you shouldn't be allowed to go shopping in the first place. :D
    The greater danger, for most of us, lies not in setting our aim too high and falling short; but in setting our aim too low and achieving our mark

    Sory for the delay in replying, the laptop was bought online.

    The voucher applies in store as well.

    And i'd like to see you haggle £50 off a sub-£500 PC, I really would...

    Hmm....let me see, perhaps the one I am typing on now, would that be enough?

    These recent laptop "offers" at Currys and PC World were definitely not great - as for the £50 voucher - I'm sure most people eligible for these will NOT be spending another £200 in the aftermath of Xmas to get £50 off PC Worlds heavily overpriced stock.......I often wonder why PC World still exists given its absolutely dreadful disregard for customers......

    Hi

    Did anyone who ordered online actually get a £50 voucher as promised? I bought a laptop and despite chasing nothing was ever received.

    Regards.

    My laptop has just given up and I need to get a new one. It honestly cannot be mended. Where do I get this voucher from. There are not many computer shops on the high street.
