£10 Amazon Vouchers

The new rules are a little harder for the newbies this time

Introductory offer for new members: Earn a £10 Amazon voucher!

We would like to thank and reward new community members who register in August and write high quality reviews. Your reviews are the heart and soul of BView and help to make it a more useful place for businesses and customers alike.
To earn your £10 voucher, write 20 reviews that meet these criteria:

• Tell a story about your experience - how did this business thrill or disappoint you?
• Add a meaningful amount of text describing both the "pros" and "cons" of the establishment -- the longer the better but it must be at least 100 words to qualify!
• Must be the first review for a business. (Subsequent reviews and reviews for public places are great but won’t qualify!) Our goal is to have at least one review for every UK company!
• Only public (not anonymous) reviews count toward the voucher (otherwise we can't review their quality).
• Add a description and photo of yourself on your profile (if you are shy, add an avatar or something representative of your personality). This helps our members put your review in context.

At least 100 words and it must be the first review for the business.

Yeah sure copy & paste it onto your post, or add on the same link as mine that ive posted on your referals page in my post. As the rules on referals is that you have to post a non referal link too.

Can someone just clarify how we can use these Amazon vouchers?

Can you only use them on items that say "despatched from and sold by Amazon", or can you also use them on items that say "despatched from and sold by someone else"?

I know you can't use them in the Amazon marketplace, but I always thought that was where it was all listed on the right as More Buying Choices and 'New and Used from'.

Any help/advice appreciated.

I believe you can only use them on items sold by Amazon themselves. I have just used one of my vouchers on Amazon items that were sent by Indigo Starfish (I think that's the right name) - that's Amazon's connection in Jersey, but still classed as Amazon.

If you read the email you got which sent you the voucher code, it says in there what it can and can't be used for. I can't remember the exact wording, but I do remember reading it and it basically said not marketplace, just Amazon.

I took at as amything asl long as iw sold on Amazon.co.uk, the onlt thing i would say is, if the seller is not amazon itself, keep an eye on the post and packing as there are seperate from Amozons postal offers.

I personally brought from Amazon did a seach for what I wanted, then picked Amazon only as the business, that way I was 100% sure.

You can use them to buy from shop sellers within ebay but not the marketplace.

I would be interested to know if anyone has used them for marketplace sellers.

When I commented earlier, it was based on the small print in an email I received, which specifically stated '...cannot be redeemed at...zshops stores or Amazon.co.uk's Trusted Partner Sites'. I think z shops is the old name for marketplace.

However, I notice that the most recent voucher email I received does not have this wording.

Just wanted to make it clear I didn't just pluck the info out of thin air - I was quoting the t&cs on the email I received. Can anyone confirm this has now changed, because there are items I would like to buy from marketplace sellers, but assumed the voucher codes wouldn't work.

Its a long shot, but what about emailing BView as they sent the vouchers out, so they may know, if not has Amazon got a "help" section if yes there may be an email or telephone no. I brought my stuff direct from Amazon, one item I wanted was a non amazon item, the p+p was £12. so hence back to Amazon.
Sorry I dont know if the above is any help - long shot

I had £15 worth of vouchers and tried to order from the marketplace and it wouldn't let me use them if this helps.
