HUDL2 £10 Blinkbox Books voucher

I bought a HUDL2 from Tesco (practically free thanks to having lots of soon-to-expire vouchers!), and included with it was a little book of vouchers for various things, £10 Blinkbox movies/tv voucher (redeemed and used, thank you), 30 days premium music (don't care), and £10 ebook credit with Blinkbox Books.

Unfortunately, Blinkbox Books is no more, and apparently was transferred to Kobo Books back in February. Does that mean my £10 voucher is rendered unusable? I haven't been able to find any information.

Can anyone else help? I feel like I've been gipped out of £10 now :(
Lightbulb moment March 2004 (Debt £55,000) & debt-free as of May 2007 (thanks to CCCS, and a remortgage to clear last £20,000).
Looking to the future!

    I have just discovered that I have also suffered from the loss of £10 towards BlinkBox eBooks. I found the following on Tesco Facebook site from yesterday:

    • I bought a Hudl2 earlier this year, and was just about to use the 'Get £10 off your favourite ebooks' that came as one of the offers with the Hudl2 but you have closed Blinkbox Books and moved people to Kobi. How do I receive the credit as the T&C's state the offer is valid until 31st August 2015 so assume you've made provision for this. Thanks.

      Tesco Hi Dave,

      Kobo offers a free book when customers sign up. The £10 voucher originally offered by Tesco was subject to availability. As this is no longer available, we cannot honour the voucher. I'm sorry for any disappointment caused.
    • Dave Page Bit of a cop out being 'subject to availability'>

    Not unlike the introduction of £4 surcharge for grocery deliveries under £40 for people with Delivery Saver passes for up to 12 months because Tesco says the Ts&Cs allow it to change the rules however it wishes.
