  • By the way be careful with these codes: SkinPep Revitalising Cleansing Foam code gives £7.49 off - you have to pay £0.50 to get it and this came straight off my gift card balance without me noticing. Same with SkinPep Brightening Enzyme & Acid Peel 3.5ml which didn't accept the code but didn't tell me it hadn't and instead deducted the £1.99 from my gift card balance. Check each transaction carefully before checking out & ordering.
  • thanks for the coupons

    Just got a cancellation request for all 3 of my orders

    Dear Mrs S

    We recently joined the AMZ TRACKER service and signed up to offer UK customers the chance to try out our products for free in return for an honest unbiased review via AMZREVIEWS. CO. UK. We were advised, via the service, to create discount coupons for each one of our products and then to offer all our products up for review and then send the discount code to customers who agreed to offer a review.

    TECHNICAL ERROR!!!
    However when we logged in today 11th of Jan2016 to check the performance of our SkinPep Amazon Store Front for a normal weekend of trade we noticed an unusual high number of sales that was 100 times higher than normal, then when we checked all the orders we realised that 99% of the orders had a zero order cost and that the promotional discount code had already been activated and applied. It seems that a technical error has occurred by amazon UK and they have accidently activated the discount coupon on the order pages of all our products, despite the fact that the code was never ever supposed to be displayed. We have been instructed to send this message to everyone:

    ORDER CANCELATION INFO!!!.
    We do not intended to charge your amazon payment card without your consent so please make a request to cancel the order/s you have placed on the 10th of January. SkinPep products are not fulfilled by amazon, we pay royal mail top ship the products with tracked 1-2 days shipping therefore the order/s that you placed on the 10th of January cannot be shipped until they have been paid for. IF YOU DO NOT WANT TO PAY FOR THIS/THESE ORDER/S AND WOULD LIKE TO CANCEL IT/THEM PLEASE FOLLOW THE STEPS BELOW:

    1) You can request for a cancellation by clicking the 'request cancellation' button.
    2) We will cancel your order & this will not affect your buyer rating or have any negative impact on your amazon purchasing history.

    I will ignore these ems if I have got them. I think this is a bluff as I don't believe they will charge you anything when you have a order confirmation em that shows postage as being £0.

    It is their fault that they have s****** up their Amazon ordering process.

    Please remember the free pink tablet, which Tagatose advised of several months ago. The tablet company sent an em to everyone requesting that people cancel the order. Those that didn't still received the tablet free of charge. I suggest this is another bluff.
  • they are saying will charge card otherwise ?? i ve cancelled to be on the safe side

    Correct the discount code was on each listing and was thier mistake nothing todo with us, they would have been better just admitting it was a genuine mistake not claiming they will charge the full amount, if you don't cancel.
