Try say no to 0870 as there should be some 'normal cost' 01 numbers on there.
Dippy the Littlewoods group (incl Very) are notorious for doing this. It might be that someone, somewhere has decided you have too many accounts & have used vouchers too much. When you give them your postcode they can tell exactly how many accounts you have at that address, no matter whose name is on them.

I know I've misused their codes too - I've just been lucky!:o:D

i signed up to a cash account first and only one definately the last too

Be very carefull of buying anything from very and using a voucher against your price....YOU WILL BE CHARGED THE FULL PRICE when you call very different staff will give you different versions I ordered 2 items which came to £62.99 used a £40 very voucher i had.. you would think when i click pay £22.99 would be taken from my bank WRONG !!!!!! the whole £62.99 was taken and so far i have phoned very about this 3 times... first time i got told the £40 would be returned to my bank in 48 hours .....nope 2nd phone call got told 72 hours ... nope just now i got told 10 days.........

Very have awful CS and are/were part of the Littlewoods group. There was a glitch several years ago where a £25 code was published online and it soon did the rounds on the money saving sites. Orders were fulfilled but a few months later Littlewoods sent letters out saying they wanted the £25 as per their T&Cs. I've avoided them since.

Did you open a credit account by any chance? And was it one of those Groupon vouchers?

I'd email them rather than phone - that way you have something in black and white and can escalate appropriately if they don't keep to their words.

Thanks karlie:D



:rotfl: whoops

Whooops indeed. :rotfl: Did you use the £10 off code wys £60 and buy a bottle of champagne?

They've had a few online glitches recently that haven't been instore. In my experience, they'll honour any online orders.

Could I come round to yours for a crisp party? :eek:

Perhaps henlans or myself have lived at dip's address in the past? :eek::rotfl:

Savvybuyer

Might be useful (even if we've seen price increases in the last three years) for getting up to 10 items - or even potentially four (tablets and caplets version of both) - own brand Paracetamol and Ibuprofen (16 per pack) are Tvs A. (Also potential Mvs A, but why would you be spending £15 and all for the sake of a 'few pence' difference?) Actually, :think:you're only allowed 2 packets per shop aren't you? And of course I don't wish to encourage any overdose - obviously for use sensibly - sorts of items that occasionally come in useful at some time.

And this, fwiw, is M (50p each) vs T in 3s:rotfl::

Cadbury Dairy Milk Oat Crunch (30g)


50p any 3 for £1.20
£1.67 / £1.33 / 100g Valid until 03/10/2015

The David Beckham gift sets rooted nomad mentioned the other day are back in stock, if you order two of these you will get 1000 points which is £10 then if you also choose another item from the 3 4 2 range at a similar price you will pay £13.98 and have two gift sets plus I bought Yankee candles tea lights and get a tenner back in points:)

I purchased 3 of these last week (paid with a 3V) they are good for the money, even though I was expecting the fragrance, boxes are marked as £7, 3 for 2.
