    I've just utilised this to get a free £5 Amazon voucher:

    With thanks to Claire21.

    I was particularly pleased as I used the account which I'd used to get the £7 free voucher when we bought the gift card and I had been struggling to spend £7 on stuff sold by Amazon, but this purchase was a book for work, so it is like turning the £7 to cash. I hope I can be more flexible on the £5 voucher when it comes.

    Hi, just been to try. Bought the correct Carex (7750) plus 2 x Sanex's but the 3 for £3 discount didn't come off unfortunately. Found one random Carex in my store and it went through as £1 so couldn't even confirm it was in the 3 for £3



    The same thing happened to me a couple of weeks back. Multibuy didn't come off although the SEL stated 3 for £3. CS stated 2 separate offers - yeah right. So just returned and claimed APG.

    A strange thing has just happened with my apg and I was wondering if this had happened to anyone else?

    I was getting a bit close to my £100 level for the month, but really wanted some dishwasher tablets, so I opened an account for my sister, with all her details, did an order and paid for it with a different bank card than the one I normally use.

    I have just been into her account to claim the apg and when I did, it said the full amount would take her over her monthly limit, so it only gave her x amount! The amount it gave her was the exact amount to take me to £100 for my own account. (I hope that makes sense!)

    I am wondering if A. now look at IP addresses and that I should have claimed her apg on a different device?

    I have two accounts, one mine and one Mum's both using our own addresses and 2 different bank cards, which are both mine. Up to now has been OK. Did live at her address many moons ago, don't know if this would make a difference. I use the same device for both and do use hers for her shopping.

    I posted this on the 13th and 14th Nov. when the same thing happened to me.

    Bumping my post from yesterday (sorry) but can anyone answer.

    Can someone point me in the direction of the explanation on claiming apg's the following month, please?

    I did a shop on my dad's account last night and paid with my card. Cheeky a's have said that I have now reached my £100 limit. I have 2 largish apg's to collect from online shops. I think that the explanation said whether the month was started on the first or when it is. It was the first time that I'd used his account, different address and different email address but same payment card and laptop. How do others manage to have multiple accounts? TIA

    tbw kindly answered the part about rolling month etc but no one advised how they get multiple accounts. It's not really something that we can phone up and ask about. :eek:
    Any help would be gratefully received.

  • There was no added security on any of the tubes or trains when I passed through London on my way to Bristol this morning ...

    Hope it all goes well for you today Nannylala.

    I've seen a fair few bobbies on the street recently. I did notice everyone seems extra tense on the tube, but that's about it.

    Afternoon all :wave:
