    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.

    But that situation, if it existed, wouldn't have cost me £10 already - that's the fundamental point here.

    You keep getting excited over this £10.

    Alternatively you may have spent £10 on a packet of fags, or a few pints, or dare I say food ! But you decided to spend it on a voucher to get some free petrol instead.

    Basically, how much worse off are you because you haven't received your voucher yet?

    How much better off would you be with your free petrol ... drive a few more miles/?

    That isn't the point.

    This deal has resulted in someone having in excess of £430, 000 sitting either making them money or saving them overdraft interest when those who stumped up the cash are left waiting and hoping.

    Still not a soul has got their coupons, but that £430, 000 will be working wonders for someone.

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

    What a Muppet.

    So what body do I go to officially complain when the 13th passes and I haven't got my voucher? £10 may not be a lot but I won't let it go if this turns out a con.

    And it's MY £10, not yours. But thanks for your interest in my affairs.
