I treated myself and the Mr to a hugely reduced Tassimo machine and was hunting like a wild thing for cheap discs for it and discovered that Sainsbury have £1 off all packs.they start at £3 for 16 pack!!... and then a quick search on HUKD revealed a £15 off at check out code which is NHMMATFAF off a £60 shop and I got £1 delivery :D cracking result for me and I'm looking forward to being caffeine crazy for a few weeks :P Found another code = £18 off £60 spend - CATNNSLEEM

I have had my Tassimo for over 2 years, use it every day and not sure I have ever had a faulty pod. Had maybe a couple (of literally hundreds) that went a bit haywire but blamed that on user error and not getting pod in right place when closing lid whilst half asleep. I like mine anyway and it has lasted much better than the Senseo machine I had before it. At the price of the appliance (think I paid about £30-£40) would doubt whether a 3 year breakdown contract would be worth it.
Thanks for the heads up on the pods at Sainsburys. Not been a aupermarket offer as good as this on these for a while. Good deal.

Did you use code NHMMATFAF with £60 in the basket? if you did and it didnt work then I dont know why it doesnt work for you :disappointed: If you search for sainsburys codes on HUKD there were others as well for different values - I'd try some of those x

Good luck with your machine, nothing but trouble. Faulty pods are regular and they ain't cheap. Apparently it's a design flaw that tassimo don't want to fix, search online about it. Good price though so hot from me.

Oohhh doesnt sound good :disappointed: I bought ours because a friend swears by hers (one of the 1st ones) and we were in a wee boutique hotel recently which had one in the room instead of the usual kettle and sachets. I hope mine doesnt break, Im seriously loving the cuppas from it! I had the option of 3 yr breakdown....perhaps I should have took it?

I had a few duff drinks then I learned a trick.
When you insert the pod just turn it anti-clockwise as far as it'll go.
Yes I know they don't turn much - but that ended the problem 100% for me.
I think if you just insert the pod it might naturally not sit quite right - this ensures alignment.

Bull poop.
We have had our Tassimo for three years and bought all the discs from many vendors and have had very little issues with them.
Stick with Nescafe gold blend if you want to be cheap.

This has only happened to me twice in 3+ years and both times I phoned the careline and got vouchers to replace whole pack. Very annoying when it does happen though - coffee gounds everywhere!

i've had mine for years and it only ever plays up if the there's water or condensation on the bar code reader, which is quickly cleared with a wipe from a dry cloth. Sorry but it's rubbish to say there's manufatures fault with the m/c.
