    i'm not a fan of henlans , however obviously has nerves and balls of steel

    No its not balls of steel, if your going to use a £20 why not use a £30? if your going to do 3 x £10 why not just do 3 x £30? if there gonna moan they will as the 3 x £10 you have to make it worth it.

    don't get why this is happening to peeps
    i use completely random letters and only once been told i was over the limit -and went back in to change the random letters and it worked fine

    am definitely over the monthly limit several times over so it can't be tracked through ip address?

    I wonder if it is to do with your IP address. Some IP addresses are static and some are roaming.

    Is Neosi around?:) He's the expert on these matters:D

    I got the message tonight and my £15.00 APG was capped at £10.40. I have been using a variety of email addresses and addresses. So I cleared my cookies but that did not work. So I signed into IE instead of Google Chrome cleared cookies there and tried another receipt and it worked.

    Hi just come in after doing the first coke and poo buy cost me £25.46 ~ seems a lot !
    Got a £16.93 voucher back so was still a £8.53 spend. I know ive saved a lot but would not have spent 8 quid on these things , normally being more frugal in hard times. I think ive done something wrong as everyone else seems to have done better.
    Heres the shop if any one can look and tell me what to do next time ( tomorrow when I go in ) i would be very grateful.

    it could have been a better return.

    2 shops. Shampoo etc compares to T's, so they go through in one transaction.

    Coke compares to S's, so they need to go through in a different transaction, to maximise your return.

    I know you're all in Sada's enjoying your glitches, but thought I'd mention, a quick womble through Tosco is still profitable!! I picked up 3 yesterday, 88p, £1.64 and... drum roll... £5.44! Would've been £1.70 more if they thought about their shopping!! :rotfl: Anyway, I'm still wombling in Tosco whilst you're all stashing in Sada's. And I'm not in the least bit jealous. Nope. Not at all. Who am I kidding?!! :rotfl::rotfl::(

    You've mixed a poo shop (v T) and a coke shop (v S) and your Rice Pudding didn't compare for your coke shop anyway. Sorry
