Aren't PC World / Currys 20 % more expensive than elsewhere anyway, making this a faux discount.

Ok to answer some questions.... My work use a company where by I can purchase discount vouchers for companies - like this offer for Currys.
Yes you can use these vouchers Instore and online. With using these vouchers online you can only use 5 e-vouchers in one single transaction.... You can use as many physical gift vouchers as you like (vouchers bought in a shop where by you get a physical card).
Should you buy more than 5 e-vouchers you can phone Lanka (that's the woman you want to speak to) on 01727 202594 and she can merge as many e-vouchers onto one card.
Hope that helps someone :smiley:

As this is an electronic code redemption voucher, would you be able to put more than one code in at checkout.........seems unlikely and so is probably one code for each transaction.

At my work we can get evouchers for currys. I have taken in multiples of £100 to pay for big price items. Hopefully this should be the same where it is not limited to one paper voucher copy.
Excellent offer. I 'only' got 10% off from work.

Am I right in understanding that, provided you spend at least £20, you can purchase any amount of gift cards for 20% off their face value? Or is it such that I can only buy a £100 voucher if I spend £100 etc.

Ok cool. My maths is not that bad (honest!).. it's just not clear if you can use two gift cards in the same transaction.
skyebluebirch
18 Dec 15#62
so if I buy a £100 - 20% = 80
then buy a £30 - 20% = 24
total = £104
can I buy two separate vouchers and use in a single transaction?
CHEAPASCHIPS
18 Dec 15#64
effectively 20% off everything instead of paying for a full price item with a card buy gift card save 20% on the face value then use to pay for full price item or even better wait until the sale and technically get a further 20% off the sale price!!!! :wink:
seert to CHEAPASCHIPS

What's the expiry date on these eVouchers? For example, could they be used in the January sales?

yes - standard Currys evouchers have a 2 year expiry date

I was in Currys today and they said you can use multiple vouchers. I mentioned about the terms saying you can use only one, he said this was probably for online orders only, he said that they can scan multiple vouchers

The Reward Gateway site says that you can use up to five on an online order. I ordered £175's worth earlier in the week and it came as 4 separate vouchers, no issues redeeming.

The remaining balance will remain on the e-gift card which can be used for future purchases. You can actually specify a specific e-voucher amount.

20 Dec 151#82
This is deal of the month for me, given that Currys has some decent offers anyway, will price match some of the big competitors and have the free next day delivery, so excellent for some last minute gifts. This is better than the deal last year as Currys have only recently introduced the ability to redeem egift cards online
You add 3 vouchers to a basket. You use one code. On that one order. And you're only one user. It doesn't say one code per VOUCHER. How can it possibly stop you? If it did I would be calling them and saying they worded it badly and it should be allowed.

matwalaboy
20 Dec 15#90
Does it matter what name you make the account through - presume if they are the same name - have a higher chance of being rejected - as it would show up as same user purchases? Also seems apart from debit card - the other cards attract a small surcharge and there is no paypal payment either?

Maybe I got lucky with it then - but no other transaction since then has worked, as I said I have a few where the bank has authorized the charge, but the giftCloud website still shows unsuccessful - so I am hoping the charges would drop after sometime, else it's gonna be a painful back and forth to get that money back.
Also don't feel brave enough to make new account at different addresses (I know ! ) and give it another try. Just wanted a few more as I am keen on buying the iPhone 6s - but guess that won't happen through this route :disappointed:

The gift card starts with the correct numbers to be used online but it wont let me, it was also confirmed by the 'online chat' however the instructions explain about handing it to a cashier and what the cashier should do to process it. The product I'd like is only available for home delivery or pay and collect. :disappointed:
chris_61 to Kelly928
21 Dec 15#175
Same problem as me although i have found a workaround, I'm going to take it to the currys store and get them to exchange it / buy a £200 giftcard with the store vouchers.

So then 2 was the max people got - apart from the hassle of chasing their banks to unblock the cards, and wait for the transactions posted to drop or chase them otherwise?

21 Dec 15#187
lol. Just had the fraud department call me from Santander about an unusual transaction!
matwalaboy to Speculator
21 Dec 15#189
Brilliant - 4 charges on a CC and another 2 on a DC - none of them successful on WebCloud side ofcourse - and now suddenly I am left having to call the banks to unblock both cards and wait for the transactions to drop. Oh well should have just not bothered to be silly with multiple accounts and the likes ! Only myself to blame I suppose, but lesson learnt.
Kelly928
21 Dec 15#188
Does anyone know why though? The fact it's been classed as suspicious and automatically making the banks check the transaction? Glad it wasn't just me mind.

I used one of my cards for a second time and it worked, different email and name but the same address when creating a giftcloud account and the same bank details. That's now 3x£100, a nice £60 saving on an already discounted apple watch.

You mention sent to same account - what did you mean by that? Also did you try checking the balance online, for me it says invalid even though I have the GC?
rojih66
21 Dec 15#224
in the giftcloud website, you can purchase the giftcard for your ownself, or sent it to the others. what I'm doing is that, the 2nd and 3rd purchased, I sent them to my main account.
I also check the balance of GC and it does have £100 each :smiley:
but now, the xmas20 code is failed.. i could not made another purchased right now. Still short another £100 for the dyson v6 absolute :o

vassy201187
21 Dec 15#240
Wow. What reason you gave for them to get it converted? Or did u buy any gift cards using the vouchers?
matwalaboy
21 Dec 15#241
What is interesting is pretty much all the banks are picking up transactions from giftCloud as fraud - wonder why though. I have now had to reset 3 of my cards with 3 different banks - as all of them picked it up as a possible fraud - hearing the same from a number of people here also. Not so sure anymore on the genuine-ness of the voucher company ! :disappointed:
chris_61
21 Dec 15#242
I told the guy I wanted to buy an apple watch and asked if they stocked any instore (knowing they don't) and he said they are hard to find, i told him they are £50 off online and that I'd like to purchase one but my codes were for instore use only and didn't work online because it has different formatting and that i had already called Currys to confirm that earlier. He seemed to think otherwise but went and got a giftcard from the shelf and put £300 on it and threw away my 3x£100 vouchers from giftcloud.
matwalaboy
21 Dec 15#243
That's cool - I am tempted to do the same - as online deals are always better than store - especially with the cashback websites saving on top. So they dont stock apple watches in store, I am wondering if I should use the same trick :d Do they need the print out of the vouchers - or the e copies are good too?
carltonbp
21 Dec 15#244
19 hours later HSBC text me about it. They unfrauded my card straight away. Makes you wonder what's the point of verfied by VISA if it doesn't count for anything.
carltonbp
21 Dec 15#245
And you can't use this code online. Well that's a pile of pants. I guess you can order to collect in store if they stock it.
chris_61
21 Dec 15#246
You might have an easier time if you just print them off, I clicked the "Download EGIFT" option on giftcloud site and it prints it out on a nice format, he did scan the barcode when i gave him mine.
If i got lucky, you could try go before they close and say something along the lines of you need something for Christmas and need to order it online within the next hour to get it next day.
vassy4u
21 Dec 15#247
I would do 2*£150 gift cards. Also would use £10 off via o2 priority.
chris_61
21 Dec 15#248
I have o2 priority but how would that work if you order something online? I thought the o2 priority code was for instore use only?
vassy4u
21 Dec 151#249
Yes its in store only. U could have used it while getting your £300 gift card in Curry's.
carltonbp
21 Dec 15#250
Please stop quoting the humongous image.
matwalaboy
21 Dec 15#251
I asked them the same question - that why can't you flag them there and then with the additional layer of security that the Verified By Visa is meant to be and they were like "eh, why do you even ask us tricky questions" ! - Crazy, now I have payments "supposedly" authorized - but then unsuccessful on the giftCloud website - surely in this age of technology these things can be made better and more full proof. If GiftCloud is detecting the address/name/blah combination and is anyways going to reject my payment - why does it bother to let me go through all of this - on the first instance just say "bug off" and I would have obliged :smile:
matwalaboy
21 Dec 15#252
Don't have O2 - how does that work, apologies if this has been answered before somewhere?
vassy4u
21 Dec 15#253
Well get a free o2 Sim. Put it in. Download the o2 priority app. Use the sim number for registration. Then once u r in u can use o2 perks. So they provide u with a code which gives u £10 off when spending min £150 instore.
matwalaboy
21 Dec 15#254
Ah ok - thanks for the pointers :smiley: However in this case, I already have the eVoucher and am just converting them into another one - so does that count as a spend anymore then?
vassy4u
21 Dec 15#255
Well instead of converting them try to buy a gift card which Tally's your e voucher amount. On paying use the priority code.
Taylornina
21 Dec 15#256
Just tried the code and it is saying it is not valid, said inky started today, any ideas??.
matwalaboy
21 Dec 15#257
So you mean pick up the gift cards from the shelves - take it to the till and then ask them to use the eVoucher to pay for them - when doing so also apply the priority code?
Lastly the free SIMO that O2 would send won't work for this, would it - I need some minimum balance to get this going?
Thanks for patiently answering all my queries - much appreciated :smiley:
matwalaboy
21 Dec 15#258
Sorry, you are almost 18 hours late in here :disappointed: Most of the codes expired last night, there was a short stint where it worked this morning - but I am afraid it's all gone now, which is why the deal is marked expired.
vassy4u
21 Dec 15#259
Yes. Your steps are correct. Well I just ordered a free sim from o2 and it worked fine. Or u can buy a sim from Asda which costs £1. I did this earlier. Worked fine. Never topped up :smiley:
matwalaboy
21 Dec 151#260
Ordered a free sim from O2, will give that a shot and then visit currys lets see if it works out, might turn my 300 into 320 with a bit of luck -:smiley:
vassy4u
21 Dec 15#261
The £10 off offer ends in three days. Try buying one from a local store n go to Currys the earliest you could. :smiley:

21 Dec 15#262
Ah ok, didn't know that- thanks. I could just ask for a free codes in the forum maybe someone isn't planning on using them -:smiley:
vassy4u
21 Dec 15#263
You got to show it to them I guess
matwalaboy
21 Dec 15#264
You mean on the mobile on the app itself?
vassy4u
21 Dec 15#265
Yes. Last time when I purchased the Microsoft band from o2 I was asked to show the priority code on phone.
matwalaboy
21 Dec 15#266
Thanks, that's the message most people responding to my request for a code in the ask forum suggested too.
In the meantime, managed to sort out the code on one of my phones by requesting a pal to forward the verification code sent to their o2 - he doesn't use priority so worked out perfect for me for this one voucher. Now need to sort out another to be able to split it into 2 orders and hopefully use the codes in store.
vassy4u
21 Dec 15#267
Good luck. I'm visiting curry's tomorrow morning. So will update you. Cheers
matwalaboy
22 Dec 15#268
Thanks, I am planning a visit in the second half, so would be good to hear how it went for you, if you could use the eVouchers and O2 priority both to buy the gift cards that are redeemable online :smiley:
gpb
22 Dec 15#269
Why are people struggling to use the vouchers from gift cloud online? Just go to Currys website add voucher or evoucher at the checkout.... The first 6 digits of the vouchers is shown and you just need to enter the rest and the pin code.... Job done....
vassy4u
22 Dec 152#270
Went to Curry's. Bought the gift card using the e voucher. o2 priority can't be used for buying the gift cards :/
matwalaboy
22 Dec 15#271
What if we buy something and then return it later, you get back the value + o2 priority i.e 150+10 no?
vassy4u
22 Dec 15#272
No. Its just a voucher. So it can't be got back :disappointed:
Sharpharp
22 Dec 15#273
Only thing in the Terms and Conditions exclusions is Apple iphones, so should have been accepted.

Well I did try :laughing: but their system wouldn't allow the o2 code to work on gift vouchers. To give them their dues, the guy at Currys tried all sorts of workarounds to try and get it to work, but no joy. Decided to convert the e-vouchers to a single giftcard instead.

Remember from the thread people creating multiple accounts to get over the £100 limit, worked for some but I think some got cancelled/delayed as they have a fraud filter
Heat added
Although, how do you actually go about getting Currys to price match?
*edit* nevermind - looks like they have already dropped the price to £89.99! :innocent:
£130 - £26 =£104
then buy a £30 - 20% = 24
total = £104
can I buy two separate vouchers and use in a single transaction?
so I see this £700 television in Currys, I buy 7 x £100 vouchers, actual cost £560 and I can then use these to get the television, is that correct?
· Only one promo code can be used per order and per user.
Although other comments seem to suggest they have had some luck in the past with multiple purchases!

Info on price promise
http://www.currys.co.uk/gbuk/price-promise-1023-theme.html
The two picks for me with the 20% e-voucher:
- New Chromecast with £20 Google Credit - with e-voucher will be £20
http://www.currys.co.uk/gbuk/tv-and-home-entertainment/digital-and-smart-tv/smart-tv/google-chromecast-10137566-pdt.html
- Price match JL and Tesco Direct with the Amazon Fire TV which is £64 at those retailers (£79 Currys) - so will be £51.20 after the egift card, lowest price I have seen
http://www.currys.co.uk/gbuk/tv-and-home-entertainment/digital-and-smart-tv/smart-tv/amazon-fire-tv-4k-smart-box-10139066-pdt.html
The Ts and Cs say "One code per order per user."
You add 3 vouchers to a basket. You use one code. On that one order. And you're only one user. It doesn't say one code per VOUCHER. How can it possibly stop you? If it did I would be calling them and saying they worded it badly and it should be allowed.
inevitably some people will setup multiple accounts to try to bypass this
Just be aware if you are creating multiple accounts they may go into a pend status, see thread from last year
http://www.hotukdeals.com/vouchers/20-off-debenhams-ticketmaster-currys-pc-world-cineworld-italian-bella-italia-cafe-2091342
Last year this deal was active in the evening. Not sure if its same this year or starting soon.
Also any idea what the charges are for credit cards?
Hope that helps.
For whoever it helps, there's also £10 off £150 spend on O2 priority.
Also don't feel brave enough to make new account at different addresses (I know ! ) and give it another try. Just wanted a few more as I am keen on buying the iPhone 6s - but guess that won't happen through this route :disappointed:
I got one my broadband without problems.
Made a new account, tried with a different card and was rejected. Tethered my mobile phone internet and it was accepted.
Was hoping to get 4 x 100 but don't think I will risk it, if i only get 1 x or even 2 x, it won't be enough!
And code no longer valid...........

I also check the balance of GC and it does have £100 each :smiley:
