    I contacted Odeon who said:
    This offer is run by The Sun newspaper, and so any information regarding the tickets would have to be dealt with by them, as they are the one who process posting these out and processing any codes that have been collected. I have some contact deals for The Sun from their website, which I shall post below;


    The Sun
    1 London Bridge Street,
    London,
    SE1 9GF
    Or you can telephone them on 020 7782 4000

    I emailed them and no reply so perhaps give them a shout and see what they say (I assume the Facebook response never materialised)

    No chance, unfortunately.
    Postage might be a bit expensive considering how many people applied.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,820 ✭✭✭podge018


    nothing in my email


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 716 ✭✭✭Red King


    Nothing here either

    Still nothing for any of my 3 emails (different names used for each so that isn't the issue)

    They must be waiting for a new batch of codes?

    So I'm guessing it's safe to assume if we haven't got emailed by now, ain't no tickets a-coming?


  • Posts: 0 [Deleted User]


    Did it mention anywhere that there was a set amount of free tickets?


  • Registered Users Posts: 63 ✭✭Milliehollie


    I just rang that number and said myself & husband hadn't received our codes despite having screenshots.
    He immediately said it was only one per household and as we had used the same home address we had voided the terms & conditions. We had used 2 different email addresses. I said I didn't realise this, thought it was one per person which I did, he said no chance of getting them now. Told him we both applied as we had 2 kids.
    Oh well, looks like the family trip to the cinema over Xmas isn't happening now:(


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,820 ✭✭✭podge018


    Get back onto him and tell them their T&C said
    25. Only one pair of ODEON tickets can be claimed per person.

    no mention of household


  • Registered Users Posts: 63 ✭✭Milliehollie


    Thanks for that, but I think he said it was t&c no. 24. Can you see all the terms and conditions somewere?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,799 ✭✭✭MiskyBoyy


    Thanks for that, but I think he said it was t&c no. 24. Can you see all the terms and conditions somewere?

    #24 is this: 24.Promoter: ODEON United Cinemas International (Ireland) Limited trading as ODEON. Registered in Ireland under company No 441782. Registered office: 6th Floor, South Bank House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4.

  • Closed Accounts Posts: 716 ✭✭✭Red King


    Got nothing and neither did the girlfriend. Two different emails and home addresses.

    Annoying


  • Moderators, Entertainment Moderators, Society & Culture Moderators Posts: 14,124 Mod ✭✭✭✭pc7


    I applied very early on this bargain and only once and no sign, pity :( glad some have been lucky though


  • Registered Users Posts: 63 ✭✭Milliehollie


    Thanks, just phoned back there and the girl was adamant it was only one per household. I told her definetly not, it clearly states one per person. She tried to find my address and said nothing was on the system & nothing she could do. I told her that's not good enough. I have a screenshot of when I applied. She said someone will phone me back but I doubt it really. Will give a ring back tomorrow.


  • Registered Users Posts: 468 ✭✭aine92


    18.Tickets are subject to availability, normal age restrictions and any other relevant standard terms including ODEON’s general admission terms


    20.Offer may be withdrawn at any time.

    They'll use one of these two loopholes. Work is quiet today, might ring and wear the ear off someone later :D

    Feel sorry for anyone who actually bought 5 copies of the sun just to get free tickets... as least all of us (most?) just copied and pasted codes nd hoped for this best!
    Can't really feel annoyed :D

    But they have to know how outraged we are! Joe Duffy will be the next step. Consumer rights, Joe. Worse than Hillsborough, Joe.

    A hell of a lot of people do.

    Shoddy I say... would expect more from such an upstanding publication

    The S** is the lowest of the low, anyone that buys that rag deserves to get nothing,

    I heard nothing from these either so I rang the 0818243790 number this morning. I was told I wasn't on the spreadsheet. He asked if I knew when I applied, I said yes the 23rd November, he went looking at something else then came back and said the offer was only available from the 7th to the 18th November.

    I wonder how they explain people getting the tickets by applying after this thread started on the 19th.

    that refers to the time the codes appeared in the paper not the application times which i can see nothing in their T&C about
