You should of bought a calculator as well :confused:

Wow they charge delivery on a £100 spend?

Both codes didn't work for me.

6TFTK worked for me :sunglasses:

Sounds like the "deal" is the alleged discount code, not the product.

New very accounts only for the discount?

Point being code may be one-time-use, but great if not, and will trigger a deluge of helpful posts for every other qualifying item that Very peddle.

Did not work for me :disappointed:

No idea why it's hit & miss, sorry. Worked for me & some on the other thread already so idk. Maybe try a new account or add something else to basket maybe

6TFTK worked for me :sunglasses:

Why is this expired it still works fine

You need to mention the delivery charges too. Shame they charge for it.

Good point yeah forgot. Added it.

worked for me thanks

Free delivery with c&c

Ooh yeah.. forgot that too :laughing:

Would not let do c&c on this .

Many thanks OP.
6TFTK Worked for me.

does this work with ps4

Only problem with that code is that it is a credit to your account, not an instant discount.

This means that if they did not specifically send you 6TFTK then they will just claim it back off you, or not bother applying it at all.

Pay by paypal. I "got away with" using a credit only code on a non-credit account multiple times. They can't take more from PayPal after the initial transaction and the discount is applied prior to that.

No, read what I said again, this will not work with the 6TFTK code as it is a credit to your account - so if you pay with PayPal then you will be charged £103.98 and then later on the supposed £20 credit with be applied to your account - although it won't if you haven't specifically been sent the code.

I agree this will work with the LAMJA code as this is a discount voucher - but then I have tried that on our 3 accounts we have to no avail. The 6TFTK works, but I'm not going to risk it - esp when you can get a scratched box one (probably brand new) from Amazon Warehouse for £92 odd.

No use if you already have an account (or 3 and I'm not setting up a 4th).

Both codes didn't work for me.

Not bad. Better and cheaper than buying a refurbished unit even if its Very. Pay over 3 payments too with Take 3

They have so many codes out at one time it's hard to keep up. But I assure you, if you pay by PayPal they only take the discounted amount, there is no 'pay full amount and get refunded' that is only when you pay by card. I have done it many times and only ever get charged discounted amount to paypal. Some codes are credit accounts only though yeah that's true but there's usually half a dozen different ones out in the wild at any one time

6TFTK worked fine 2 minutes ago

OK, I stand corrected - I just went through the pay in full checkout and it does take it off.

However, I'd be concerned they will chase me up for using a code that wasn't issued to me (it's in their T&C as clear as day).

You're right, they can't take anything extra off the PayPal, but I'd rather keep my account open - they are pretty bad overall (and I had a big issue with them over the PS4 debacle last year - although I won that battle), but I did get a rather nice 12" iPad Pro with 20% off recently. You don't see those deals elsewhere that's for sure.

I've had several unbeatable deals from them just in the last few months alone. I have multiple accounts with them and never had any problems with codes, credit or otherwise. You can always downgrade your credit account to a regular one again if you're concerned about a charge at a later date. I can only speak from personal experience and I've saved hundreds with them and had no problems, although ofc I understand everyone else's experiences may differ.

Worked for me on mobile site. Existing customer. Thanks!

Tried both codes on mobile & desktop site, neither worked as a existing customer :disappointed:

new customer, neither codes work...?

registered a new account and no codes work either lol!

can you take the hard drive out and use it in a laptop?

Thanks!

Code doesn't work??

For me 6TFTK worked at times and at other times it didn't work unless I added bnpl to the order.

Doubt it. It seems the Amazon product page shows the 2TB or less version but from the descriptions and reviews of this (you have to filter the reviews for this size and model as Amazon just lump everything together) it seems the drive is at least 15mm (and certainly not 7mm) as it is listed as 20.8mm.

Good deal. Sods law, I just bought a 2tb version of this from Currys yesterday for nearly the same price.:disappointed:

Cold I got 3tb drives from asda for £28! 6 of them! So that's 9tb for 84 pound.

Ordered, with Paypal, using code 6TFTK. Thanks OP!

The build quality is awful on this model, cheap plastic casing which bends and flexes.

none of the codes work, must be email only

Your not going to stand on it are you?
If not for its intended purpose its fine.
6TFTK code works other doesn't for me.
heat added

Surely you mean 3 of them...Well done anyway.

You should of bought a calculator as well :confused:

Neither code is working for me on my existing account (which I haven't used in years and struggled to get back in to). Has anyone who the codes weren't working for had any luck with the codes on a new account? Just wondering if it is worth me making a second account or not.

Try adding bnpl first then add the code. If there is no bnpl option at checkout then your not eligible.

Neither code worked for me. New account. Bah.

epic fail with your maths jibe.... lol

The product is designed to be portable, therefore it may get thrown into a bag and carried from one place to another. If one wants to use this model daily, the poor flimsy casing will not stand up to everyday activities. I sent mine back as the case started to come apart after just one week, once you get yours, you will know exactly what I mean.

how about a cheap case to keep it in.

I have no BNPL option, but do have the option to upgrade my account and Take 3, that would open a credit account so I assume that would work as well. I thought I had a credit account with them but looking on Noddle they closed my credit account a few years ago, obviously because I hadn't bought from them in many years then.

Same here.. baahh

I was very tempted to buy one of these when the deal was first posted but two things put me off. The first is the 3.5" version of this drive has been delivered faulty (failing SeaTools tests) more times than it has been delivered working, just this march I ordered one (lightening deal - similar price) and after two replacements which were also faulty, I was refunded. In short, run SeaTools on this drive!

The second reason is because I'm not sure how Very handles returns, even with Amazon being friendly it was annoying having to return drives. I wouldn't want to be chasing up replacements/refunds ect.

It seems there aren't many deals on hard drives :disappointed:. I've been waiting since late February for a deal, at the time I wanted two 5TB + drives (would settle for 4TB+) and now I need four of them. I even signed up to the Western Digital store news letter hoping I would be sent a discount :laughing:.

Please do share your mathematical equation!

The correct hukd response was in fact, my car does not do 88 mph so I cannot get these.

Worked for me

The point I think people are trying to make is that you said you bought 6x 3TB drives for £28 each. You then said that was 9TB for £84. However that would be only 3 drives, if you bought 6 drives, you have 18TB for £168.

Opened a new account, but neither code works. £30 off offer from them if I upgrade existing account to a credit account, but that's likely to create more problems than it's worth.

I now believe that he did both but only mentioned the 9TB as a direct comparison in price to the £83.98 of this deal.
I see that now. Sorry.

Now having read through that again I see the point you are making.
Shame the point wasn't made clear from outset.
So maybe You should have bought this Book instead

True but bad wording nonetheless. Either no need to mention buying 6 and just say that that deal was the equivalent of 9TB for £84, or saying they got 6 but saying that is 9TB for £84, twice. Indicating that the comparison is being made on price but that he doubled up on the larger TB to pound purchase.

Either way, not knowing about that deal, other questions come to mind, was it external and 2.5"?

Great find. Ordered :wink:

Personally I wouldn't buy from VERY no matter what the price. Only ever had terrible experiences shopping with them. They're okay whilst everything is going right but the minute anything goes wrong their customer service is (based abroad and) appalling.

Do you need to open anew account with very ??
If so is there any credit check ??

why?

Am I right in thinking if you set up a new credit account and enter LCFQN and you use the take 3 option you get credited with £30 and it's 0% interest? Or did I miss something

I think that's probably correct yeah. There are definitely some codes for new credit accounts which will likely beat the ones here. They will be listed under the 'New customer offer' section of the Very homepage

EDIT: Actually just checked they only have a 10% off first order code listed there
LCFQN should work fine though yeah
http://www.very.co.uk/voucher-30.page

Fair warning - i've just had one of these fail last night after less than six months use - the dreaded click of death.

I got mine for a similar price from Sainsbury's so i'd just say buyer beware.

I think the deal is over. None of the codes work.

Try as many times as you think is worth £20 of your time!!! Just got 20% off with 6TFTK Their system is flaky.

I tried 6TFTK, LAMJA alternately about 20 times and it gave in to my persistence :smiley: FYI - Paid in Full using Paypal. New account.

Thanks @derp1664 for the deal.

Worked for me too for a nacon revolution pro controller

Well it is a deal site, and if someone spots an item which is competitively priced after applying this code, I will be happy to read it. I can filter out deals that don't interest me, with a simple flip of the mouse or a nudge of the scroll bar.

Thanks - LCFQN worked on a new credit account for the wife. Looks like I can pay off the £69.99 balance after the £30 credit's been applied to the account with a card. And that will be the very last of my dealings with Very. :laughing:

Thanks for posting that code. I wasn't going to bother as the first code did not work.

The 4TB HDD appears to be the one referenced here https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=ypQTC6Rt0jk

Please share the grammatical or punctuation error?

Not expired. Just worked for me using LAMJA code. Paid via Paypal. Cheers OP!

Code doesn't work. Expired.

Thanks, guys - £69.99 + delivery (and TCB on top) with the new credit account code. I've had these drives for a while, and they're extremely good. :laughing:

Works for some - unexpired.

cold for seagate

Is the cable included?

Yes.

I think if you register and don´t create that credit account, you can´t apply vouchers. Am I right?

Well after trying last night with entering all codes i gave up. Today i registered for a credit account then entered the code and it worked.

So i think it only will work if you upgrade your very account, then pay it off in 3 months with no interest.

6TFTK worked for me. Only valid on credit orders.

Thanks OP. 6TFTK definitely still working. Cheers. BS

Didn't work for me either. New account. Time wasted and ow i have to wait on a call back from very to close my £600 credit account - bloody useless, I wanted to one-time pay, but to sign up I had to accept their credit scheme?

Cheers, used code 6TFTK before on a tumble dryer a few weeks ago and just used it again. Finally ordered something off Very that's actually for myself! :laughing:

£99.99 now :confused:

Very returns are great, use collect+ soon as it is scanned in your account is credited. I did this with a £1750 D750 which they then sent me a replacement for after they had scanned my returned one back at my local Spar shop.

Samsung Momentum drives inside these..very reliable drives.

Code KXVL6 works for £20 off first order on a very account

Same with me here, used it last time to order an S7 Edge and not used it since :neutral_face:

Damn. Missed out. Code expired

Since I had the 'Take 3' Option, I clicked that to sign up for a credit account again, then used the code LCFQN to get £30 off and it applied fine. Then I clicked to pay now and paid by PayPal, £73.98 delivered. Can't use the code more than once, but tempted to try one of the other codes and order a second one.

Are you sure it is expired or just not working on your account? Have you got a credit account with them? None of the codes were working for me, then I signed up for a credit account and used code LCFQN for £30 off fine, can still choose to pay now rather than taking on credit but unfortunately you have to sign up for the credit account first for this code to work.

Still have my first seagate 500Gb portable 5 years on and no probs and i have 2 more portables so their very reliable but having to spend £50 to get this price isn't really a great deal.
No doubt other retailers with have a decent price without the caveat! Cool IMHO

Cold - code doesnt work.

Very's website is a pain in the ass to use. Tried literally every code for this month to get some (if any) discount but to no aval. Really wanted this one though. Too bad, another sale lost Very :disappointed:

Have you tried getting the credit account before?

:man:http://www.very.co.uk/terms.page

arithmetic was correct

didnt work for me

used code LCFQN opened a credit account got £30 added to the credit account hapy days.....

New Account code?

Excellent deal, £99 then £30 off, so £69 plus delivery paid for over 3 months interest free credit. I had to sign up to their credit account or the codes wouldn't work, then using LCFQN for £30 to be credited back to the account. I've had a 5Tb version of this drive for the past 18 months and it works great as a backup drive, bought this one as I wanted another for a disconnected offline backup to protect my files from these ransomware viruses.

So should this be classified as a lottery rather than a deal?

6TFTK does work but the checkout is not working on my phone. Seems like a sign not to buy.

Not really - but you may need to open a new credit account, and use code LCFQN. That will get you £30 off (several posts above to confirm this) the £99.99 price and you can then repay the credit account quite easily from a card to clear it. £69.99 + postage, with some cashback on top. Good deal while it lasts.

tried all the codes and none of them worked.
tried again because some one on here said that if you keep trying it works eventually.
tried 6TFTK for the 4th time and it went through.
happy days :-)

anyone know how fast these are for data transfer ie playing games from them ?

very interesting thank you, really didn't expect it to fare as well as it did to an SSD !

Yeah, seems good value per terabyte and no negatives vs the internal.

I've got the 2TB model already which I've been using for over a year on the Xbox One. I'll be moving this 2TB over to the PS4 Pro, considering just making it an internal drive.

The new 4TB I intend to pair with the upcoming Xbox Scorpio - standard Xbox One S in the mean time. I'm assuming like the Xbox Elite this will have a 1TB non-removable SSHD, so I'll use the 4TB external for everything by default, but move the most frequently played games to the internal SSHD for any small loading gains.

I'm still not sure about ordering this drive but it's good to know Very handle returns effectively, especially for future deals. Thanks for the response. :smiley:

All the code's people shared here don't work for me. New VERY account and tried all codes when attempted to pay via debit card and via PayPal

Looks like VERY is on to us...

That is exactly what I had originally, but you see that big box in the middle that says "Apply to upgrade your account"? Well, if you click that and apply for a VERY credit account, then at least some of the codes start working. I used the £30 off one myself, but tested and at least another of the codes is working after that as well.

Have you actually applied for a credit account (not card payment or PayPal) as above?

Well do you need to or don't you? If you do, that should be stated in the deal details; if not then it's a lottery.

How could I state in the deal details every possibility of who it works for and who it doesn't? I am but one man :smirk:

At the end of the day, if it doesn't work for you then sorry but move on.

This really works with promotion code LCFQN but you have to create a credit account. I chose to pay in one go so no need to pay in three months (I hate that). Tried to upload a screenshot but I can´t.

BTW, when I wrote the code, I was told I was going to be charged for the full order and, then, get a 30 GBP refund but I can´t see that in my ´Balance from last statement´, line user Newbold, just above. I only have two rows with a date, not the promotional discount one. Have I done something wrong?

Given that you've posted just 8 deals in more than 5 years as a member, do you really feel that you're in a good position to keep criticising someone else who's taken the time and trouble to post a great deal that's got many of us a bargain drive? :neutral_face:

Very won't let me join maybe i am to common for them

Tell them you are a friend of Littlewoods Myleene Klass. They should sort you out. I pull that out the bag whenever I use the Livechat.

I went for some xbox 1 games using the codes. Seemed a better deal and saving in the long run.

If the deal isn't availble for many members - and for seemingly inexplicable reasons - then yes.

"Very" painfull......

Take it up with Very then instead of complaining here. 862 heat shows it's been helpful for plenty of people.

Because I've nothing better to do than try to work out for the OP why his deal doesn't work for lots of members. Thanks for the offer, but I'll pass.

You were the one who seemingly cared so much about labelling it as a lottery? Now you don't care? Make your mind up.
And if it didn't work for most people it would have never even got hot, let alone 862 heat.
/thread

That's the point - I do care because IT IS A LOTTERY. I - and it would seem plenty of other members - don't want to waste our time trying to get a so-called deal which isn't actually guaranteed to be available. It's really not a difficult concept to grasp.

This deal is plainly still working for a lot of us. Mods: please reinstate.

And how hard is it to grasp that 862 heat means it helped a lot more people than it hindered?! Wow.


Clearly you have nothing better to do because you are still replying on an expired deal which you didn't even order.

Ah, I see! It doesn't matter how many people's time it wasted as long as it randomly worked for you and some others.


I am trying to help other people avoid wasting their tme as mine has been. Again, another simple concept you seem incapable of grasping.

You are so concerned with others wasting their time, be it the seconds it takes to enter a discount code, that you are willing to spend countless hours commenting on an expired thread :laughing: Well aren't you the modern day Robin Hood, a real everyman's hero.

As I said already, try taking your complaint somewhere that could actually do something about it; like Very or report it to HUKD mods, see where that gets you.

"Some others" lol you really are so salty

Oh, and while you're at it.. since you care so much about saving others time.. why not put some of this energy you're wasting crying here and find some deals to post yourself so you can actually help people instead of making snide comments on deals others have taken the time to post.

Thanks OP for posting this deal. While the code you mentioned did not work for me, fortunately one of the others posted in the comments did the job.

I have a very code spend £100 get £50 credit added yo account

Thanks derp1664, bagged one for £73.98 using the LCFQN code :smiley:

oos

Good news as it indicates they had stock in the first place, took payment anyway when I bought this on Friday night.
Not much progress shown on Very's Recent Orders and Tracking info. (its been the weekend) but shows Delivery by Tuesday. Looks like they'll be busy over the next few days.
Thanks OP.

Ordered 3 of these separately and received phonecall from Very asking why I needed so many and if I was going to order more, felt like saying none of your business but explained that I had 2 grandchildren with xboxes and I wanted 1 for system backup, they seem to have accepted explanation.

wow... if only you had explained 'properly' at the start and just missed out the irrelevant fact and said it was a direct comparison of cost per tb (noone needs to know how many you bought)

cos it is a direct comparison isnt it?

imagine the stupidity of a person comparing a single usb powered portable drive of 4tb with multiple desktop drives and power supply! (as we are doing equivalents thats one and a third of them... we will call that two for practicality)

you wouldnt have been stupid enough to compare this portable drive with desktop drives in this thread would you?
http://www.hotukdeals.com/deals/toshiba-canvio-desk-drive-3tb-28-asda-telford-2693504

not having gone to university and learned about such things....

by all means just ignore this and concentrate on my grammar/punctuation
id rather think and make a relevant point than the nonsense you have posted in this thread with 'good grammerz'

btw...
should be punctuation at the end of 'cold' - perhaps a full stop or exclamation mark depending on your level of excitement
you should state how many drives you got for £28 unless you specify it was 'each'
it should be TB not tb
asda should be capitalised
usage of 'pound' rather than pounds is rather loose and its a bit sloppy to mix usage of the pound sign with the actual word but i will let it pass
you also failed to explain it was an actual comparison
you also failed to explain it was not a relevant comparison

This deal is expired drives have sold out!

Back in stock but now £110 + del. Still cheaper than Amazon if one of the codes still works.

Do I seriously have to apply for a credit card just to get a £20 discount when others reportedly didn't have to? Sounds rather shady

To get the £30 discount (code above) you need to apply for a credit account (not a credit card). One of the other codes may get you a £20 discount without the need for a credit account.

Winds in the reel! Caught a whopper.

Now today.
"Good News!
We've despatched your order - if we've not already delivered it your order will be with you in the next few days."
I'm Very happy to hear that !.

Likewise: Despatched by Our Supplier per tracking. Anybody know who the supplier is, and which carrier they use?

It may be yodel but I could be wrong.

Royal Mail Tracked, I've just this minute signed for mine.

Thanks for that. :smiley: Just checked my tracking and it's out for delivery. I wish more companies would use Royal Mail - more reliable than the rest, and if we're out we can rely 100% on the postman to leave it somewhere sensible (and to sign for it if he has to!).

Just got all these on XB1 for 60 quid.
