  • Sorry don't have access to a Windows Phone.

    Once loaded I think they're active for the rest of the promotional period, although in fairness I've only really ever left it a couple of days between loading it and spending.

    Thank you,

    So I could do it at home from OH mobile then go shopping a few hours later or use starbucks free wifi while we are out and about?

    I'm just worried it won't work and will have to end up returning stuff :o
  • Oh you'd be absolutely fine loading them at home in advance :) (and don't worry if you don't get a 4sq notification in the app, as long as you checked-in and loaded it to the card (& I'd take a screenshot to confirm this just in case) then it should work fine)
  • Just booked a one-way flight just so I can take advantage of the Dixons Travel/Xbox offer :D
    Haha - sorely tempted to do that too!

    Well I've got 5 cards so I can get £250 vouchers for £125 and the flight was only £16. Unfortunately though they don't sell gift vouchers apparently so I'll just have to buy something for >£250 and return it for credit at a Currys.

    Combined with the Currys deal for completing a mission on Halo 4, I'll get £500 of vouchers for £250 to put towards a new TV :D.

    Got to love complex and convoluted bargains...

  • Ahh which branch was that? T5 certainly sold them although they seemed to be in a bit of a dusty old drawer!! Good thinking re. Currys credit.

    Make sure you let the airline know you're going home and not getting the flight otherwise they'll hold the plane waiting for you to board!

    Bristol. Called them and the guy I spoke to said they didn't but will still ask once I'm there.

  • prob a stupid question, but do you have to have an xbox to take advantage of the xbox related deals?
    anyway around this?
  • Yes you need an Xbox. The only way to get around it would be to use someone else's console to login and sync.

  • I'm still trying to somehow sign up to receive the offer emails but not having much luck. Instead I came across this: www.foursquareoffers.com but when I try to do a search, it never displays anything. Is it just me, or does this work for anyone else?
    I don't think I can hang on til Friday...
