    Hi, am I right in thinking you need codes from 10 different days? Eg. you can't just buy 10 copies on one day?

    Correct.

    Just done mine, had 9 codes from papers, and one bonus code they sent me. I'm confused though, as it states "As long as you’re with us in a month and have paid £7.99 for your second months membership you’ll receive tickets within 28 days."
    The form I got with the bonus code didn't state this, neither did the paper, it this correct?
    Next year we'll be millionaires!
  • have just managed to do mine. also confussed over the £7.99??? looks like i have just paid £1.50 postage for nothing

    Just come off live chat, and they said they "believe" I don't have to pay for a months membership and I should get the tickets. Believe doesn't give me 100% confidence, but hopefully should be OK.

    Kienon: Hello, you're chatting with Kienon. I'm here to help you with any questions you may have about Sun+.
    paul : hi i applied for my alton towers tickets earlier and was surprissed to get a message at the end to say i had to pay £7.99 next month to receive them????? i buy the paper every day i have for years and dont wish to have a subscription to sun+ i only joined up to get the tickets this way so that i could choose my day.
    Kienon: One moment please, I'll just look into that for you.
    Kienon: That is incorrect, that is a generic message so that will not apply to yourself.
    paul : so i will receive my tickets even if i dont ever add any more sun perks codes or pay the money?
    Kienon: That is correct Paul.
  • Ordered my tickets today using 10 Sun Perks codes - I'm not a Sun Plus paid member - and there was no mention of me having to become a member, though i did pay the £1.50 postage - Still waiting for email confirmation!
