FAQs & Policies

Coupon FAQs
(also see here for another source of info.)

Q: How many coupons can I print?
A: Most couponnet-type coupons are only available to be printed once (or twice if you click ‘no’ when asked if it printed successfully or the back button). Any PDF or JPG coupons can usually be printed as many times as you like (remember to save them to your computer, just in case the online version disappears!).

in response to this
Q: when i clicked on print, it came up with my printer settings so i thought i'd see if changing the amount of copies i wanted would work, and it did!this is not allowed so please don't.
a good response by CW as to why not
A:You must not print more than one coupon with the same pin number, if you do the store will not get their money back and you will damage the coupon acceptance policy in your store and possibly all supermarkets.Supermarkets only get paid once per pin number. printing multiple copies with the same pin number is the same as photocopying. just apply again using different details so that the coupon has a different pin number.
Contributed by: Couponwoman

Q: How can coupons be traced back to you
A: Many coupons are linked to registry of your computer. It has nothing to do with IP address.
If they realise that the coupon printing has been abused from a particular PC, there are chances of banning you from any further coupons in the future. And it is very very difficult to remove that ban.:mad:
And this has happened to few, on here in the past. so be careful...!!!!!
Contributed by: IDLESAVER

Q:why can't i install coupon printer?
A : here's some fixes that should work . here or here or here or here (for those using MAC)

Contributed by: isolice and copperheadjack and chattmum & happychappy

Q: Is there any way to get more couponnet-type coupons?
A: Yes, but only if you have access to another computer(s). The coupon software knows how many times each individual computer has printed the coupon. Also, see here.

Q: I'm having problems printing couponnet coupons...any advice?
A: See here or here for info.

Contributed by: Veggiecar

Q: The PDF prints are too big or small and fuzzy....any advice?
A: See here or here for info.
______________________________
Contributed by: Veggiecar and Coupon-mad

Q: Does it matter if the coupon is printed in colour or black & white?
A: Technically it should not matter, however some staff automatically equate black & white prints with photocopies - which are NOT permitted.
______________________________
Contributed by: Honey9036

Q: Do I need to use my real identity (email, etc) when registering for printable coupons?
A: Where possible, the 1st post will indicate whether a genuine email address is required or not (eg when verification is required by clicking a link in a received email). However, in most cases it it ok to use a false email address, since most of the coupons print instantly.
______________________________
Contributed by: Honey9036

Q: Can I use coupons on the self-scan checkouts?
A: No reason why not - but it's advisable to check with the self-scan supervisor to be sure.
______________________________
Contributed by: Honey9036

Q: What or who is a "Trout"?
A: TROUT is the expression used by people on here for cashiers of a certain age, usually female, that are miserable for the sake of being miserable, unhappy in their work, jealous of people with mocs and do their level best to prevent anyone using coupons...try your very best to avoid them at the checkouts......(See here also.)
______________________________
Contributed by: Bullshot & Coupon Tilly

Q: Where else can I get coupons from, apart from printables?
A: Check the daily newspaper thread & magazine thread. Also try the 'products with coupons' thread, here. Also, join the Tesco clubs - see here. You can always look at freebie forum link here sometime the promoter send the sample with coupon attached to it. example : Nivea, Clipper tea, any many more.

Q)I heard you can get coupons from breakfast cereal
A)PIKAPAK INFORMATION
Nestle Pikapaks are 8 small boxes of cereal wrapped in cellophane..similar to Kelloggs Variety.
For quite a while now there has been a 25p moc on the back of each individual packet.Price varies but they are £1.36 at the moment in Tesco and the mocs total £2.Please check the barcodes of each moc as only 1 of each may be used per shop, unless buying the product, then usual conditions apply.
Most with sell-by dates of 11/09 12/09 01/10 02/10 have 6 of the 8 mocs that can be used per transaction( ie 3 are for the same product, so you may only use 1 of those 3 with the other 5 different ones)
Recently purchased Pikapaks sell-by date 03/10 now appear to have only 4 different barcodes...please be check before using them.
The mocs have expiry date of 01/11...so you can safely stock up if you can still get them in your store....
HOW TO CHECK FOR MOCS
The mocs are on the backs of each small packet...if you slide 2 packs together inside the cellophane, you should be able to see a black dotted line (and maybe a pair of scissors icon) very close to the back edge of the packs.Once you have bought a pack, it will be very obvious what you are looking for.It takes a few moments and you may have to scrunch the box edge a little, but this will ensure you have £2 worth of excellent mocs.Hope this helps....

Policies

TESCO

Only accepts coupons when you buy the product.

Official NEW coupon policy communicated to all Tesco staff:

From Monday, 31 October 2011

Tesco will no longer accept coupons from other retailers (conditional spends etc).

This includes all types of coupons issued by Sainsbury’s, ASDA, Morrisons, Waitrose, Marks and Spencer, Co-op , Aldi etc, including their Spend and Save, Brand Match and Price Guarantee vouchers.

The new Tesco coupon policy is simple - Tesco will accept all Tesco and supplier /product coupons (PDFs & Safe coupons) as long as the customer has purchased the product. But that is all.

Tesco will continue to issue, and therefore accept, Tesco Price Check coupons

THANKS TO VEGGIECAR

It is ALL to do with the info couponnet sends to the printer...they have safeguards in place to ensure that the coupon cannot be stored electronically and re-printed as often as the user wants!

In my experience on several machines:

Couponnet works fine...... if you are using Mozilla firefox and Windows XP

Couponnet works fine if you use Mozilla firefox and windows vista as long as you only have one printer, and no software printers/faxes installed.

Couponnet works fine...... if you are using Mozilla firefox and Windows98

Couponnet will not work on linux, with ANY browser.

So the problem is not at the couponnet end(apart from when they managed to block us all, after the Warburton glitch!)...it is with the ever changing browser compatabilities, and how we operate our systems.....
If the couponnet system does not recognise something, it will not allow the print to go through...and quite rightly so, IMHO.

If you have a browser that works....keep it for couponnet....load another one for other browsing if you like....or if the new one doesn't work.....go back to your old one.....use the windows refresh option, to go back to an earlier time. (programs/accessories/system tools/system restore).

I posted last night about Vista printer issues...if it applies to you....try it.

also from the couponnnet site

Is my printer supported?

Please note that ONLY paper based printers are supported. Flash, Adobe/PDF, Queue stackers, File printers etc are not supported due to fraud protection measures.

Please check your printer settings to make sure your default printer is a regular printer. The coupon must be printed to paper. Some printer drivers (this will be displayed in the error message) have an option to print to a file that cannot be circumvented. For security reasons, these printers are not supported. If you have a multifunction printer (fax, copy, print), please make sure the printer function is the default printer on your computer.

Make sure you have the latest drivers installed for your printer!!! and that they are for the correct operating system...if you are unsure...download the latest drivers from your manufacturer's website, uninstall and re-install using the new drivers.

I have had a number of issues, on a number of computers, and all have been able to print fresh couponnet coupons.
It is all detailed on this thread or the previous ones, but the main things are as stated above......use firefox, use ccleaner to uninstall, clean out all rubbish and clean the registry (several times), re-boot,install couponprinter and start printing again.

If you get stuck, couponnet have most of the answers on their site......but they don't know what you have on your system....and they have to safeguard theirs!
:beer:
Also from couponnet site for info:

Why couldn't I install the Coupon Printer?

If you are experiencing problems installing the Coupon Printer there may be a few reasons:

1. You may not have permission to download programs on your computer or you are using software that blocks the installation
If you are trying to print coupons at work or from a computer at a library, Internet cafe or university, you may not have permission to download and install programs onto the computer you are using. This may be true even if you've downloaded and installed other files. Contact your network administrator for more information. If you have a home computer, you may find it easier to access our coupons there.

You might also be running software that prevents installation on your computer. Please make sure to turn off any anti-virus software or any anti-spyware or adware software. While we have attempted to work with most of the major publishers of such software to ensure that our Coupon Printer is not blocked, there may be programs that block the installation, or put up a warning that you are about to install a program. You should choose to allow the installation.

2. The security settings in your browser are set too high
If you receive warnings or errors that an attempt to install and ActiveX control (Internet Explorer) or a plugin was blocked, or are asked for permission to install a program, you may need to change your browser's security settings to allow installation of these types of controls. Also, make sure to click the appropriate buttons in any dialog boxes that appear to allow the installation. Modern browers make you jump through a few hoops to install plugins, but it's worth it!

3. Your operating system or browser is incompatible
Coupon printing is currently supported on Windows 98, NT4, 2000, ME, XP and Vista when used with Internet Explorer 5+, Netscape 7+, FireFox 1.0.7+ and most MSN and AOL browsers. Coupon printing is also supported on Macintosh when using Safari under OS X 10.3 and higher. Coupon printing is not supported by the Compuserve 2000 7.0 browser. While connected to Compuserve, use Internet Explorer or another browser to print your coupons. Coupon printing is not supported on Linux or WebTV.

I still haven't solved it yet. Maybe I'll uninstall and reinstall Coupon Printer

hi kev,
i had this problem once, exactley the same as you, i was on IE7 xp then, only thing that stopped it, was to uninstall my printer, and re-install. worked a treat.

BROWNTOA

normal stuff , no Freebies or competitions in this thread (unless they involve coupons) there are specific areas of the forum for those.

there have been some arrests etc for coupon misuse recently so any posts suggesting such actions would not be alllowed

read:-

http://www.mirror.co.uk/news/top-sto...5875-23450396/

as its a fresh start and due to recent problems the following is not to occur in this thread

1) encouraging misuse of coupons , i.e not buying the item , printing off multiple coupons and buying multiple items when the terms say you should not

2) editing of coupons , scanning of coupons , making multiple sheets of copons to print off

3) offering to send by post any coupons you have , requires swapping of names and addresses which is not allowed if you check the Forum FAQ's

4) posting of your personal email addresses

5) offers to PM codes , if you have a code it has to be posted ( again covered in the FAQ's and "stickies" here)

and finally

6) personal abuse between forum users , outside my remit as a Board Guide so ALL posts get referred to the forum team

7)posts about hosting copies of PDF's on Google Docs, are not allowed

if you quoted any of the above , even if the rest of the information is useful on your post , it will be removed
