  • i just called and they said i had something marked out for 9th nov aswell and they promised id get it by end of month heres hoping !!
  • It has certainly been the mother of all c**k-ups, but recently postings are a lot more encouraging with several forum members actually getting their vouchers. What I don 't understand is how some people seem to have received vouchers without filling in the application form. How did Barclaycard know which vouchers to send?

    Sorry, I didn't make myself clear on the last post.

    After doing the balance transfer I received a letter asking me which vouchers I wanted, which I filled in and sent off a couple of weeks ago. I got them yesterday.
    "carpe that diem"
  • The call centre staff also grumbled something about my vouchers being sent on the 9 November and they would take 28 days to arrive.

    Even by Royal Mail standards that is amazing. Perhaps they are being sent from India.

    after calling up one of the numbers on this thread this morning
    i was also told that my voucher form was sent out on the 9.Nov.2007

    and to give it 28 days

    if i sent my payment to them on the 9.Nov.2007
    could i tell them to wait 28 days before sending or issueing a new payment

    I expect that they mean that the forms and/or vouchers could take up to 28 days to arrive. I hope that they are not sending them via HMRC.

    My first spend was 3rd November, so I should be hearing soon.

    Are we now receiving vouchers that can be spent in a number of shops, or will it be the form to choose which vouchers I want.

    I thought these would make a nice chrissie pressie for one of my daughters.

    I have ordered her a contract mobile phone, which may cost more than I initially thought!! I bought this one through e2save, having had a run in with cnm. However the recent liquidation of mobile affiliates (cnm etc) doesnt give me too much confidence!!

    So I have to realistically assume that this pressie may cost £420!! (Quite a lot more than "approx £100!!") So freebies like the £50 voucher are most welcome!!!
    ACII and Chartered so now I can focus on learning to play my beautiful Sax. 🎷

    Don't worry about it. Coolnewmobile were a bunch of monkeys. E2Save are owned by CPW, so there's basically no chance of them going under.

    I rang Barclaycard on Friday to double check regarding the £50 high street vouchers promotion and he said the vouchers were sent as soon as there was activity on the card. I did a balance transfer that day and he said that would be counted as activity.Fingers crossed then!!!!
