    Can't remember that far back when £20 would fill up my car!

    You can afford a "new car" (new to you, or brand new?), but not the petrol?

    I think he may have been jesting ;)

    Amazon / eBay / etc offer goods for sale that aren't theirs. If the seller does not provide them by the given date they refund you immediately, simple as that, even though they're 'not to blame', simply to protect their own business and reputation. Why aren't MD offering this too I wonder ???

    Probably because, unlike eBay and Amazon, MD don't have the cash available to do it.

    Their loss, though, in the longer term - because the poor reputation they already had is now even poorer, and as word spreads they'll be finding it more and more difficult to sell their deals because people won't trust them to deliver. I doubt I'm the only one never going to deal with them again.

    There is an advert currently running on the radio, regarding helping companies to rebuild their reputation

    Can I say, that we (my wife) ordered something through MD and it never arrived. However after some e-mail correspondence with them it finally came.
    Thank you for reading this message.

    Nothing for me. Very annoying as my car is empty and I will have to fill up now.

    You would have presumably filled it up anyway, with or without the voucher. :D

    There isn't a 'with the voucher' option at the moment though, is there. And 'without the voucher' should mean having £10 more to fill up with of course. It may not be a significant sum to you, but please don't so visibly enjoy the misery of those to whom it might be.

  • I am not 'enjoying your misery'. However, if you had not heard of the voucher and you went to fill up your car, you would have had to pay £20 for £20 worth of petrol.

    For anyone where £10 is a significant amount of money...... they shouldn't be running a car in a million years.

    What is £10 these days?
