Re: £5 Off all orders over £50 @ Play (Expires:06-12-09)

Actually, I've just cancelled my original order and just reordered Inglourious Basterds, The Taking Of Pelham and Terminator Salvation steelbook. Works out at about £15 each if I include Quidco. Not a bad deal considering 2 of these are £17.99 each.

T4 is listed at £12.99 in my outstanding orders. So of course, I could cancel the other 2 after it's been dispatched and get it at a bargain price. I'm not gonna though...that's just naughty

Yes we do.
As others have said it's the existence of the Quidco support that keeps me visiting one or two suppliers that are a shadow of the former selves.

I didn't realise you could only use it once. Good job there's another code to use

I need to find a couple of other titles along with Road to Perdition and The Horseman for a 2nd order

Thanks to davidjohnson too

Judging by the post just above yours I am not at all surprised - obvious mis-use of the voucher system, and will probably only harm other, more responsible users of vouchers in the future.

Agreed.

I've only used each of the codes once, which I believe is void after you use it once anyway. I'm gonna be a bit ****** off if I get any kind of cancellation email from Play. I haven't cancelled any part of my orders so I should be ok.

Yes. I think we need some clarification here.

I don't recall ever seeing terms and conditions either.

It's good that play have acted on this, I just hope it doesn't affect those that wish to use the code properly, and that they will still offer this offer and similar ones in the future.
