    Is the voucher applied to the order made today... or is it for use with your next order?

    Decent looking sleeping bag for €16, will have to order soon for picnic.

    If you were ordering 120 quid do you have to split order into two 60 quid orders to get the 24?

    No code, it's an official offer on the website. I'd say cancel and reorder, shouldn't be a problem unless they've shipped it already?

    Don't think you can cancel or change an order once it's placed. Think you have to put in a whole new order.
    Also not sure if you can reject the order once it arrives and get it returned to sender. Think you might have to fill in the form and pay for return shipping.

    I'd say split. But you'd have to pay 2 x shipping costs.

    Says, "for every €60 spent"


    Wouldn't be sure you'd need to split.

    It's not a discount, it's a voucher. Said voucher becomes valid from 1st September after the promotion ends.

    Spend €60 now, get €12 off your next order from September 1st

    Can more than 1 voucher be added at the same time?

    The delivery charge + time limit on the voucher take the good outta this offer....unless you can bundle the vouchers after.

    I cancelled my original order and managed to order again, over 300 quid worth of stuff.

    I'm sure 5 €12 vouchers. I'm presuming they come in one go and I can use the 60 quid for the one order.

    The vouchers are a credit note, say you get 48 euro worth of vouchers, and in three months time you place an order for 25 euro plus 8 euro delivery. Then use your voucher and the balance of 15 euro will still be on the code.

    You don't have to split orders into 60 euro bundles, as that would be stupid and negate the benefit of getting the vouchers in the first place.

    End of Quarter sales must be lower than expected and this will drive sales up again before end of September. Keeps the investors happy anyway!

    I'm raging. Myself and my other half were looking at ordering over the last month or so but were waiting for a deal.

    Ended up ordering last week over €200's worth which arrived this week and now they have a deal!!!

    Don't suppose they'd honour it as a good will gesture!!?

    I'm dumbfounded at the response from SportsDirect customer care. Order 4 items, 2 are broken and need to be returned. You can only return to a UK address via registered post. The postage costs outway the return value. Surely they are resposible for the return cost of faulted goods?

    I doubt it as a lot of people would be chancing their arm.
    Luck of the draw unfortunately I would imagine.. but nothing ventured , nothing gained.. fire them an email

    I am the same, bought some stuff on Tuesday evening.
    I am going to email them later and ask them to honour it.
    They may or may not, won't really change my attitude to them if they say no i.e. I understand the terms of the offer and according to the terms, I missed it by buying too early, but if they do honour it, i'll be very impressed.
    Let's see

    You could return the items (at your own cost) and rebuy them, if it is a significant price difference. If they refuse to offer you an alternative.

    If anything is broken on arrival they legally bear cost of return carriage. You definitely have to fight your corner on that one.

    In the EU Consumer Rights Directive which governs such things

    Traders must refund consumers for the product within 14 days of the withdrawal. This includes the costs of delivery. In general, the trader will bear the risk for any damage to goods during transportation, until the consumer takes possession of the goods

    Also look into the cost of returning via parcel motel if you have things that need to be returned that are not broken. It can make return postage to the UK dramatically cheaper in some cases.

    I was tracking it on DHL. It has just updated now actually, to picked up on Fri 28/08 and now 'processed' in Leeds today.

    Hoping that means flight tonight and out for delivery tomorrow, eejits.
