    How long from when you took out the policy or how long from 1st payment did it arrive?

    The first (and only!) payment was on the 6th May - I don't remember when the policy started, I think it was about 4 weeks before that. Anyway, they said that the gift would be sent about 28 days after the first payment, and it was (well the voucher was anyway). Just in time to cancel the DD via internet banking!

    So 28days from 1st payment.

    The only thing that confused me was that it says on mine that the first payment is free?? Therefore is it 28 days after I was supposed to make that payment or 28 days after I actually make a payment??

    It's after your first actual payment!

    When I signed up I asked for a TV but they inadvertendly signed me up for 2 policies. They have just taken the first £6.00 on both. Do you think I could call and change my second gift to a Sat Nav or is it too late??

    I got my voucher this morning, for a Binatone sat nav from Argos. Not bad for £6.
  • I phoned argos today to see if I could upgrade when my voucher arrives and they said if I get a blue voucher then yes i can.
    Can anyone tell me what colour voucher they got for their satnav please.

    Its meant to be this TV :

    http://www.argos.co.uk/static/Product/partNumber/5290925/Trail/searchtext>MIKOMI.htm

    Does not even have freeview. Is it possible to upgrade to a better set by adding a bit of money. I have 2 television vouchers but don't fancy getting this television. I guess I could get it and then take it back for a proper argos voucher refund and buy a proper set with the vouchers.

    edit. They gave me a accoustics solution television. It has PC input so a bit better that the Mikomi one.

    Yes as bajangal has written the vouchers are blue.

    The binatone satnav is not as bad as I thought it would be. I got igo8 running on it (very slow to load though).
