    CrepeSuzette, did your parenting voucher only take off £5 in total then? They must have resolved the glitch.

    I spoke to the cust serv about the lip moisturiser and they said it is a grey area but they call it cosmetics even though it is called a moisturiser.

    Hi saveumcowboy

    Yes just £5 but I was happy with that!! :j

    So that means the voucher no longer works on the mirror...? :confused:

    No it doesn't seem so as it just took £5 off the £19.99.

    Spoke to No 7 assistant today and they are definitely getting in Protect & Perfect on Friday but they will be limited to 1 per person.

    By the way if you shop at Tesco.com look at their easter egg clearance on left hand side.
    Cadbury 100g eggs + mini eggs / buttons now 10p!!

    After catching up with the thread I have examined my ebay vouchers with a real one I got on Saturday and they are deffinately different - these are shorter in height and are slightly different coloursand different paper. I don't think they are so obviously different that a sa would notice but am a bit worried about using them just in case! Did anyone else pay through paypal as don't they have some sort of protection about fakes? If we all reported him and said we thought the vouchers were fake would we get our money back?
    To be honest no- ebay have very strict rules and process for claiming fake goods.One being that you have to prove the item is fake by either taking it to the police or get the fact it is fake verified by a correct source ( ie boots in this case ).It is also a lengthy process by which time the seller will simply have closed his account and moved on.
    I agree with you that the vouchers are probably fake- at first i never bothered but when i look at them they are too squint. The seller also has far to many of them to have acquired just one book of vouchers.
    The only thing i can suggest is you email the seller and ask for your money back, they will probable agree as done want hassle.Till someone leaves him a negative he will continue to get away with it. To be honest i feel pretty bad & uncomfortable about having counterfiet goods- getting boots loopholes is one thing- knowingily committing a crime is another.:confused:

    I think I will email him. I was nervous enough when trying to use my parenting voucher, never mind trying to use vouchers that I think may be fake!
