    Even if one already has an Amazon account, it appears to me that one's credit card details has to be given again to this new company. Is there another way?
    Why would you think that? You're just buying from Amazon in the normal way.

    Thanks Claire21 Pick up locations all seem to be in England only or am I missing something?

    There were quite a few near me in Lanarkshire.

    Each time you use your amazon account to deliver to a new address you have to add your credit card number again, it is a security measure in case your amazon account has been misused.

    Be careful. When you're looking for a pick-up address, make sure you select "pass my parcel" from the dropdown list before you put in your postcode. I searched for "all" & the results didn't include "pass my parcel" ones. The nearest address shown was a Doddle one (in a town about 3 miles away) so I have a card going there which won't give me the £5. I realised this too late so tried again, this time searching for "pass my parcel" only, & found that the nearest one was our local newsagent - 200 m from the house! Luckily, I wanted some cards for Christmas presents so nothing lost but it is annoying!

    I've searched for and selected a pass my parcel location, entered my credit card details, added a £10 gift voucher sold and dispatched by Amazon (amazon item B00TE2EHIQ).

    When I go to check out, I only get Amazon options (including prime since I'm a member) - no option to select pass my parcel. What am I doing wrong? Is there a specific gift voucher that I have to choose? Perhaps it's because I'm an Amazon prime member that I don't get the option?

    Update: Ah - I didn't select as per the advice above. There are no pickup locations near me.

    apwood,

    The offer only works on the greetings card option (not the normal gift voucher/gift card.) If you've already selected a pass my parcel address it may show up when you get to the "deliver to this address" page. (Mine does now & I'm on Prime, too.)

    Worth another try?

    Large town in East of England, 0 collection points. Not impressed.
  • Can anyone confirm that there is no minimum spend to get the voucher?
    I can't see anything, but wanted to check.
  • i get the message
