and got trouted !!!!:eek:
Did the first shop (small poo and trying something out) and only self scanners open.
Bloke comes over, total about £15, hand over £9.93 voucher - he puts it through after struggling at first.
Had a friendly chat so thought s*d it.... back in for Coke shop.
This time around £12 and voucher for £8 and he referred it to a manager who to be fair was nice and polite but said he couldn't accept it as he wasnt the checkout manager and they had some fraudulent ones floating around (not that mine was of course....)
Not sure if he has been clued up but he could see I had used a voucher to generate a voucher (schoolboy error???).
Never mind, another voucher coming up with any luck....
Brings me to the point though.... are people recycling their vouchers (i havent had an issue until now) or creating new ones each time, closing them down and doing another one?
Its what i,ve been doing but I'll use a coke apg for cheese or a poo for coke I won't use the same items for the recycled apg if you know what I mean.
HTHMake it idiot proof and someone will make a better idiot.

I've been trying to recycle where possible, and mostly not had a problem. Just a couple of Trouty SA's who think I'm taking the coupon value right out of their purse!
I don't read anywhere in the T&C that you can't use an APG shop and do it again. Anyone saying that I would argue is not reading the T&C properly, and making an assumption of what the T&C Should be, and that is quite subjective, and also incorrect.wackojackouk wrote: »Had to pop out in the endand got trouted !!!!:eek:

OHH DEAR!
Nice email to CEO team will fix that and a rap on the knuckles for her trouble and usually a nice gift card for you...0 -
Wish I had some more ideas for you sorry.
I have now started list what I claim on what device ect to try and avoid this problem. If you've been to different houses them thats obviously different ip addresses. Maybe the app does lock it to that device.........
Hope someone else can help sorry
I did it on the app at my house then tried to print the voucher from my laptop but it says it's capped. No details were entered either on laptop or the android app. Sent the details across to my dad who entered them at his house but still the same £100 limit message.
Arghhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh bleeding android app. Actually, I'm away to remove it and re-add it just in case.No one can make you feel inferior without your consent ~ Eleanor Roosevelt0 -
Uninstalled, reinstalled, same problem. Double arghhhhhhhhhhhhhNo one can make you feel inferior without your consent ~ Eleanor Roosevelt0

I'm guessing from what your saying once entered into the app it's locked to that device could be the imei number or even the serial number. Maybe its one to chalk down to experience.:( Sorry to say.:( Hopefully someone will come along with a soloution
Sorry I couldn't help youMake it idiot proof and someone will make a better idiot.
