This is really a poor show :mad:. I was ready for the first batch at 10am. Kept refreshing page 9.59am, 10am, refreshing refreshing, 10.01am, 10.02am refreshing. No form for the code. Opened new page searched for promotion page, still no form. Kept refreshing, and finally at 10.03am form appeared. Pasted and copied postcode and email within two seconds - all codes gone. How can that be ? This will be even worse in three hours time. You really need to look at having a different system in place. The site just can't deal with the traffic.

it could be worse i got a code entered it and there was a technical fault.
tried it again and was told the code had expired?:mad:0 -
You weren't in quick enough op.
Try to get over it.0 -
When I click the button, either nothing happens, or a blank white box pops up below that never contains any text. I guess either the code or the 'sorry' bit should be there, but nothing shows even minutes later.
Anybody actually got a code at 1pm?0 -
Something wrong with the code page.
Text says you'll either get a code or a message telling you they've all gone. I got neither using Chrome. Tried again in IE. Same.0 -
Yeah same in Firefox and IE. So the 1pm codes may not actually have been claimed yet.
EDIT: nope, now saying all gone. Wouldn't mind if it worked right.0 -

tried 3 different browsers and my phone and all i got was white boxes!, how can they all be gone when everyone got white boxes?
A big thanks to all the comp posters for their effort0 -
Tried from 9.58am, kept refreshing the page and as soon as the boxes came up I entered my details only to be told all gone. it was 10.02!
Did the same just before 1pm and got a code around 1.02pm which has been accepted so happy days.
Didn't have the advantage of cut & paste for my details like someone mentioned, I typed them in full each time which I guess slowed me down. Must remember to do that in future when there isn't a lot of time!0 -
Me too.
I tried at 10am and wasn't quick enough, despite having the email address and postcode filled in within 15 seconds of the boxes appearing.
I tried again at 1pm, and had the details filled in quicker by pasting them in. When I pressed the "get code" button, nothing except the blank white box.
Never mind, will try again at 4pm.0 -
I also tried at 1pm, tried about 20 times and each time it didn't say they were all gone, same as other people I just got a blank white box, didnt give a code or a message to say they were all gone!!! Each time I refreshed the page the box was there to enter my details and it didn't say they were all gone till about the 20th time of trying!!
Very annoyed!!!!0
