Mobile.co.uk not honouring Curry's voucher offer

Following the advice in the weekly email of June 24, I bought a Pixel 9a from Mobile.co.uk.
The deal included a £50 Currys voucher, to be sent 'between 18/7/2025 and 17/8/2025', as my order was completed on 10 July.
Over the past week I've had online chats with Mobile.co.uk to find out why the voucher hasn't been sent, and when it will.
The best they can tell me is
"...we
have been informed that there has been some delay with the
gift cards and an escalation has been sent on the 23rd of August the
last time you spoke with us. There is no update as yet as it takes 3-5
working days for an update to be provided."
and
"...as
mentioned above the gifting team have only advised that there has been
a delay with the gift cards and we have sent an escalation. As of now
we need to wait for an update, the gift cards are not sent by the
customer service team it's sent by the department we have escalated to
and we are currently waiting for an update from them."
and when I asked that they put me in contact with "the gifting team";
"The gifting team does not have direct contact with customers, we will have discussion regarding that once the query has been
resolved."
What are my rights here?
It's very irritating, because I don't often want or need to buy from Currys, but there is a price dro on an item I'd like to buy - but only if I can use this voucher to reduce the cost; and if the voucher had arrived on time, I'd have completed the purchase by now.
Thanks for replies,

Letter before action then a claim via the small claims court.Will take quite a lenghty period of time.Personally? Just wait. They said there has been a delay so just hold tight.1

In reality all you can is wait it out for now. If there is a known delay, then nothing you can do to force the issue.Life in the slow lane1
