    Yeah, Amazon are just so nice that they refund when they were right! Really annoyed some of the bitter "it's all the stupid customer's fault" brigade:rotfl:Copycat govt websites. Passport, EHIC, driving licences etc. Some people here reckoned these sites were perfectly legitimate and OK because they had a disclaimer somewhere. Several court cases proved them wrong :p
    Why are you trying to derail the OP's thread with something that has no relevance whatsoever?

    It is relevant - the OP was getting exasperated at people implying it's all her fault and she won't get her money back - I was pointing out that people that say that sort of thing have been proved wrong time and time again, eg Amazon, shyster sites, gaming consoles etc. So encouraging her not to give up, and pursue with her bank.

    Back to the original OP problem, you say your husband checked his emails at 8.56am less than 20mins before purchase, could it be possible he clicked through a link on one of his emails and signed up for his 'free' watch without checking the T&Cs

    As the OP has stated her intention to disregard us why are we even bothering with her problem?

    She had me up to "85.25.156.50" is an address in Cosham. Firstly that's close enough to her home to be dispostive. Also that address is actually from Germany, so someone isn't telling the whole truth.

    100-1 someone signed up from her PC.
