Well the non-readers are getting their codes from here, UKHD and other places.
Some readers have managed to work out that they need to circumvent the system too to stand a chance.
My point is if you a non-reader you shouldn't take the offer at the expense of who it is aimed at.
And the Sun should put things in place to stop that happening.0 -
Shows the contempt News International has for it's customers. The odds are however, the deal was never exclusive to the sun, they just manipulated a sales opportunity
I don't think its contempt. More like a naivety on how some will circumvent the system.
And it was a Sun offer. Either the Sun paid RSH or RSH paid the Sun.
I was glad to see, for example, when some people circumvented a recent MOS offer to see Hitchcock that cinemas only let the MOS readers in first.0 -

OK, so the codes are getting out there somehow to enable 'non-readers' to get them.
What did The Super Soaraway Sun say when you asked them why they are releasing codes in places where non-readers can access them while their readers are waiting patiently for them to be published in the paper?
Surely they aren't leaking them so that they get even more bookings than they have readers? The The SSA wouldn't do that to their loyal followers, would they?Accept your past without regret, handle your present with confidence and face your future without fear0 -
Why would the sun worry? the extra publicity helped them sell more copies which is the only thing they're worried about.0

OMG, Really? The Sun only runs these promotions for publicity? They're not a reward to their loyal folllowers? I'm shocked

They are not releasing or leaking them - people are guessing them.
Check out on here for example the effort that goes into guessing the last code word for sun holidays..........0 -

I'm not privvy to their objectives in running this promotion but I would suspect the primary objective would be to directly sell more papers.0 -
Locked up under the Mental Health Act, for their own safety, would be preferable.You've missed the fact that many sun readers are special!
Have you considered that your bizarre overuse of hyperbole and your broad brush-strokes dislike of anyone who reads the Sun, makes you almost identical to that which you hate?0
