    Guys,

    Just to let you know, I just called Boots to ask if it will be deliverd tomorrow as it still says B4 22nd (Monday) on the website, I was told it had been cancelled as they were out of stock.

    I was one of the first to order too! The people who paid extra for quick delivery jumped the que and got theirs, I'm not moaning about them, I don't blame them if they can afford it, its Boots ordering system I have a problem with.

    They said they would put me on email notification when it came in! The only good thing (if its true!) I asked what would happen with the bonus points as I could only use the code once and would not be able to re use it when I re order, she said she would add 2000 point to my account and I should go to a machine to collect them (whatever that means).

    Hi kudos
    Did she say she has put the 2000 points on your card?
    If she has, when you put your card into the Advantage Card machine you should get a slip telling you that 2000 points have been added and it will show your new total points. I know when you order online it takes 5 days from receipt of your order for the points to show up on the machine.

    Thanks Sparky

    Yes she did say that, so although I'm angry at not getting my PS2 at least i got the 2000 point or £20 for nothing ;D

    lauraw78: I'm not sure why you quoted me, I was actually defending you.

    You didn't do anything wrong in my book and I was merely pointing out that others do a lot worse, by taking advantage of other members for example, or by purchasing a large quantity of something.

    Neither of which you did.

    Right this proves they haven't got a fair system. I did opt for the earliest delivery option but still my order has been cancelled, people who are getting them are very lucky. I wasn't even offered the points :-/
    H8 Boots right now ::)

    Will let you know if they are there when I go to the machine but I would advise everyone to say "How about the bonus points, I can't use this code again when I re-order" its worth a shot.

    ;D

    Not a fair system at all - but looking back the threads might be they first ones who ordered and got the extra 10% off might have been the ones cancelled. Still gonna fight this. Anybody received their PS2 and got both 10% discounts?

    I know you were, I was using your point to show that!
    I dont know, this website is great, but it is inevitably going to bring up debate and arguments now and again....I will keep my mouth shut next time lol
