Free ebay £5 voucher with smartphone?

I got sent this as an email, so I don't know if it will work for everyone or if the code was specific to me! Hopefully someone can test and report back :-)

The deal was - download the ebay app for either iphone or android (which is free), purchase something via the app, enter the code - COUPONAPP2 and Bob is your mother's brother.

It doesn't cover p&p, and you can't buy more than one item with it, but there's no minimum spend. I just searched for free p&p, buy it now, less than £5, and there was plenty of stuff I could buy.

  • Didn't work for me. Not sure if its because i have used app before.
  • Could be? I got the email a few hours after I downloaded the app, so I'd not used it before.

  • Looks like it's exclusive to you.

    This redemption code can't be used because it is already linked to another eBay account.
  • Aww. All my freebie finds are rubbish! Powers that be, feel free to vanish this thread :D

  • The voucher/coupon code COUPONAPP2 looks generic to me. I just tried to make my first purchase on my Android phone but there is no step, before what I assume is the final confirmation screen, to enter the code.

    What am I doing wrong?
