    As my previous post the voucher code is your phone number.

    Just used one voucher. Their stuff is 2 - 4 times the price of the exact same products on Amazon :eek:

    I had a look and there was nothing I really wanted to buy anyway. Might get a spare cable just to use the voucher.

    Which probably costs them less than £1. Just goes to show the £20 voucher is a pathetic gesture and sales gimmick to get you to buy their over priced crap.

    Can you only use it on accessories?

    I was hoping to use it on 'Phones', and buy a £50 phone or something for £20 less.

    SC.

    and put into context - you got a £20 voucher for the equivalent of 35p.
    So does it really matter that things are overpriced. Whatever it is that you're getting, when paid for by said voucher is virtually free anyway.

    That is worthless if it can only be used to buy 5 items, 2 of which cost more than the value of the voucher.

    Don't use it then! FGS you're potentially 35p out of pocket, which I'm sure that if you asked, EE will either give you another power bar or refund your 35p.

    I don't have one of the affected power bars, just pointing out that it's not as good a compensation as they'd like you to believe.

    I see loads of earphones for £19.99 - seems good to me.
    Or £20 off a phone, if you can use it on a phone.
    Thats £19 for a Rook!
