I don't get it... you post it 5 hours before the 2nd thread, and the 2nd thread still gets all the credit?

Thanks OP

1st thread was posted (if I recall correctly) in Discount Codes and Vouchers, 2nd here on Grabbit. They were then merged some time afterwards.

Grabbit gets the volume of traffic that's probably why the 2nd thread is getting the credit.

Daughter tried and it took her 7 goes to get a voucher as it kept saying offer expired but it worked in the end.
I did it earlier this morning with no hassle and got the voucher within seconds. Site obviously flooding at the moment with people trying for the offer, but worth persisting (remembered I get emails from them on two addresses so :think: thought I'd give the other email a go and managed to get another code - took three attempts as the page said expired initially, used IE).

Who are you all banking with? To know if you've been debited already?
I tried this offer in safari around 30 times. All unsuccessful. Eventually one went through and I was emailed a voucher instantly. I'm happy but do not have funds to cover 30 attempts!

Tried about 10-12 times, eventually it looked like it was going through but now I'm left with a completely blank page with this in the address box?

Hope I've not been charged- will need to keep an idea on my card

Well done to those who got it to work!

I used a credit card. After the first three failures I checked my "available to spend" balance because things show in that sum way before they get processed as a transaction.
Also checked emails for any order confirmation and having registered before attempting to buy I checked the account on bespoke.

I don't believe that anyone can actually say they've been charged properly by just looking at their bank account. Transactions take at least a day to show up.

I reckon bespoke offers will have "held" or "pre-authorised" the amount but will let it go in a few days. This is what people are seeing. Banks could tell you if you phoned up also.

If you have limited funds in your account though, this could affect it and stop you from using the card til the funds are available again.

once I've inputted my details it keeps telling me the page has expired?

Both myself and my husband managed to get it to work this morning!

Nope both were on grabbit,

KxMx is correct, the original thread by scotty smith was posted on the vouchers board. The BG on that board then moved it over to here and it was subsequently merged with the second thread started by luvvlyjubbly. Hope that clears up the confusion.

Sure there's no actual discount code, so there's no reason it would be posted in Discount Codes and Vouchers.

I'm guessing the timing was the issue, seeing as the original was posted after 1am, and the 2nd early this morning.

I checked on grabbit before I posted and it definitely wasn't there, i didn't expect it to be on another part of site, hence why I posted the offer.....sorry if I've upset someone
