Elite 11+ shopping and chat thread part 2½

when I click through to confused or JDW I get:

Oops, we're not able to show you this page right now.
Either the retailer isn't partnering with us at the moment or you've specified in your settings that you would rather not see gambling or adult content.

Even though my settings don't have any such exclusions and I played the game last time it was on

I wonder if it was set up wrong and too many of you winning £5 has led them to temporarily pull the plug...

edit: working now, £1 up so far

Subscribe & Save (S&S) is very useful and I've ordered hundreds of bargains over the years.

The first S&S item you order is guaranteed at the price you order it at. Go for 6 months if you can. Golden rule is to cancel once despatched/delivered because if you don't, your next order will be charged at whatever the price is on day of despatch.

You get a 5% discount on order 1 to 4, your 5th order will give a 15% discount across all orders. However, for this to happen you have to have all orders delivered on the same day.

There's a good member on the dark side called amazoncrazy who posts some very good deals especially with S&S items. I try and select a date 2 weeks in advance and then I usually have 5 orders by end to get 15% off.

A lot of the times the items are mispriced based on a single unit when in fact you'll get a case of 3/4/6/8/12 etc. Sometimes you'll only get a single item despite what the listing says but contact Amazon and they'll refund and you keep the item.

I complain if they deliver a few days early (which they usually do) and they'll extend your Prime membership by 1 month - haven't paid for Amazon Prime in years. May seem inappropriate but if I select delivery date of x then I expect it on that date and not a few days before when I'm not in! I'm not one to shy away from complaining. :rotfl:

Good afternoon everyone.

Wow! How did u manage the 11.xx all in. I obviously need to learn your tactics. Any help would be appreciated for the next time I renew my contracts. TIA.

Phone them up, cancel with 30 days notice.

Wait for them to phone you back.

Answer the phone and let them sweat.

Let them sweat a bit more.

Then go for the jugular and ask for £50/£100/£200 credit aswell.

Can't go too mad as not in my name, but we are currently paying £19 per month for VM 100 meg, play bundle and talk weekends. Last time we spoke to VM, they offered us about a fivers reduction on £43 a month, we said we would think about it, waited a month and took out a plusnet contract that required them to contact VM to port our number, next day VM called us and offered us our current £19 deal.

Did you get a good deal on Full House? We have been offered (after csncelling) £45 per month plus £50 credit, but said we would think about it ... we need to think quickly as we only have a week left and they haven't phoned back since :eek:.

Thanks
