    The Try Me Free promotion was printed on different Birds Eye products to
    enable our consumers, such as yourself, to choose the one product they
    wanted to try the most.

    Although we try to sell our complete range to retailers, we have no control
    over the products that they choose to stock. The head offices of the major
    retailers decide which products with the promotion sticker on they wish to
    sell through each of their stores, we are not in control over what
    supermarket stores decide to stock at any specific time. And, Im sorry if
    that seemed to have mislead you.

    However, the fourth term on the Terms and Conditions of the Try Me Free
    promotion states "Only one claim per household." The try me free promotion
    refund is for the cost of one product and one product only.

    I hope that this information will be helpful to you. And thank you for
    taking the time to contact us.

    Kind Regards,

    Gabriella Ponti

    agniecham i agree that's totally misleading and ambiguous! what's more, i can confirm that i've had a Lightly dusted fish and 2 stir your senses refunds to the same address. they refunded the stir your senses twice by accident it seems. the point is they aren't even treating everyone by the same rules.

    Just spotted the TMF Buenos in boots at Victoria station in London. Perhaps some other boots stores have them also.

    I wish BirdsEye would grow up and clearly state in the terms and conditions and in capital letters that WE HAVE NUMEROUS DIFFERENT PRODUCTS ON TMF, BUT WE WILL ONLY LET YOU HAVE YOUR MONEY BACK ON ONE PRODUCT ONLY PER HOUSEHOLD.

    Would save a lot of hassle.

    Actually, it's not typical of a big company. If you think of someone like Proctor and Gamble, they have numerous brands but have never denied TMF/MBG claims because they are all related to P&G.

    Shame on Birds Eye.
    Even if you are a minority of one, the truth is the truth.

    You've obviously forgotten the Eukanuba debacle. Oh, and Gillette. And I had trouble with Daz too.

    Folks, check your Ecover refunds carefully as mine did not include 54p postage which it should have done:

    5. The offer is limited to one single claim for a single refund per household and the promotion is open to individuals only. The refund will be made to the value shown for one Ecover washing up liquid purchase only, as detailed on the original itemised till receipt, to a maximum of £2.40 for a 1L bottle and £1.60 for 500ml bottle plus 2nd class postage to a maximum of 54p. The refund will be made by cheque to the name shown on your application.
