EXPIRED - 2100 Microsoft Points for £7! @ Littlewoods

sorry but a lot of people on here think that Littlewoods and codes do not mix well.

I have brought an item from them before and used their codes only to be phoned later on the same day saying that i wasn't entitled to the code i used.

err really? Whats up with them?

ah no! This doesnt sound good, maybe i should just return it if i havent got refunded by time it arrives?

dont trust littlewoods as you never get your money back and end up with a full priced item

Speaking personally I have had some excellent deals using codes with various catalogue sites and never had any comeback but I understand people's reluctance to vote these deals hot for the usual reasons.

Checked my bank, they appear to have taken £22 instead of £7, will be emailing em to cancel i think lol

They refund you after its sent out btw

you may have been charged the full amount and then receive a credit seperately for the £15 voucher code.

After reading about these codes previously I haven't used them however I did the other day as on their site when you add something to your basket they list the code for first time orders to get £15 off, so I thought this should be safe to use as they have listed it for everyone to see and it's not a code specdiffically emailed to someone and just to be used by them.

well i just searched their site, iv cancelled the order with the code i used, but i did find that they have a £15 off first order listed on the site, so it must be completely safe to use! Only problem being you need to spend £25 or more!

"£15 off when you spend £25 or more on your first order

Quote code ZG134 at the checkout when you place your order.

I have had some good dealings as well, I managed to get a 8Gb Ipod touch through additions direct for about £120 with a voucher and quidco.

I have had my fingers burnt twice with littlewoods and one of them was for a code that was sent directly to me !!! never again

I also purchased Xbox points from Littlewoods and I emailed them when they took £22 out my account to check that they would indeed honour the code.

Thanks for your email.
If you use a cash discount promotion, such as £15 off, and you pay for your order with a credit or debit card, then we will process your payment in two stages. First we will charge your card with the full price of the order then we will refund your card with the value of the discount.

Please note that the payment and refund may not occur simultaneously but the refund will be made no later than when your order is despatched. Please be assured that if you were selected to receive the offer and your order meets the applicable terms and conditions, the refund will be applied to ensure that you receive the correct discounted price overall.

Read the bottom that I've put in bold, by refunding the £15 they are confirming the code is valid.

I would like to see them try and take the £15 with me having this email...

I had exactly the same deal with Additions, absolute steal for £120, as I recall at the time £160 was the norm for the 8gb itouch. Never used codes with Littlewoods only with the Marshall Ward or Additions Direct divisions and never had any difficulties.

Well i got my points and my £15 refund

WOOO! Downloading GTA add on :D
