    Hi. Has anyone claimed a C&C voucher today from last month where they were up to their limits & was it okay? Do not know whether to wait until calendar month or try it. Thanks.

    Weight doesn't look good Jacobs creek sparkling 499g for 10 little bottles. :(

    Checked weight of another advertised individual bottle of blossom hill 399g. Does a cork weigh 100g. :eek:

    Booger should have thought to check yesterday. :o

    This is the link I posted yesterday

    http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B007OU6KNU?keywords=jacobs%20creek%20sparkling%20r ose&qid=1446289178&ref_=sr_1_2&sr=8-2

    Sorry for anyone who has ordered and only 1 bottle arrives. :(

    I ordered it when someone posted on 10 ways, I've had a dispatch email and It is coming via Royal Mail, if 10 turn up then great and if one turns up amazon will refund so nothing lost :) don't worry :) x

    I have no wise words snap , only you can decide what to do but make sure you don't make any choices while you are feeling emotional x

    I'm not worried as I don't mind chasing for refund but just know it can be a pain for others.

    Looks like they have done this before I should have looked further back on reviews yesterday.

    1/5:
    "DONT BUY FROM THIS COMPANY!! Decided they they didnt want to send me my whisky as amazon made an error listing it, be very careful with this company. As a result my amazon account is now closed after 8 yrs using them!!"
    Amazon Customer, 3 September 2015
    Seller Response: We are very sorry that the listing was incorrect on Amazon and as a small business we could not afford to send the 6 bottles of Whiskey for the price of 1 which would have cost us a loss of £400, we did try to resolve the matter and offered the customer a free bottle of Whiskey of his choice and we refunded the order in full but he refused to accept the whisky or our apology. Whilst this is a rare occurrence we are all human and mistakes can happen and we will always do are up most to resolve them.

    It is a tricky one isn't it? The T&Cs clearly say calendar month yet some people experienced different and lost out. One way to check would be if anyone knows they are up to the limit and could do a test instore shop today that is known will produce a small APG (that they are willing to sacrifice if it imposes the limit/or even a larger APG if could return items if it doesn't work).

    It may be difficult for any of us to appeal to A/make them aware if it is working on a rolling month even though their T&Cs say calendar month - we do know what the rules are even if we don't always adhere to them ... but they should :p (on the ones favouring us anyway!).

    It is not fair for muggles who are sticking to the rules - but would most muggles get near £100 in a month or 10 shops? I think with planning your targeted shops (and not including glitches) that some months it would be quite feasible.
