Additions Direct

I am looking to place an order through Additions Direct and was going to go through Quidco (6%)- was also hoping to use a discount code too.

When I enter a code into the promotional code box (have tried several now from HotUKdeals) a box comes up to say the code cant be used.

Does anyone know if this is because I am going through Quidco?

If so, I might try just the promotional code as there are some for 10 & 15%.

Thanks in advance!

    It doesn't usually make any difference if you go through Quidco - I have ordered via Quidco and used promotional codes before.

    Hope you get it sorted! :D

    It might be because you're attempting to use a code which wasn't issued to you personally. Be careful with these, I've read several strories on here where other people have been grilled about/ had discounts reversed on transactions where they used codes not sent to them specifically. Not sure if any of them were Additions but LX Direct was definitely one I remember...
