    Sweet find, cheers!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,894 ✭✭✭Nunu


    Very good offer.
    So what's the deal? It says you're signing up for 3 Guinness poker evenings. Does this mean a Guinness rep turns up at each of the nights and if so do you even get to keep the poker set?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,816 ✭✭✭Vorsprung


    No, they post them out to apparently, just rang there. Next batch should be with people at the end of October hopefully!!:) :)


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,215 ✭✭✭FranknFurter


    Seems you just ring up, they ask a few q's and txt you out a reference number.
    You get your friends to phone, quoting your reference number, and thats it.
    Hmm..... now to find two poker playing friends.......

    "Here's the deal
    We're giving you all you need to host a series of three great GUINNESS Poker Nights at home for you and three of your friends."

    I still don't get this bit. It's as if these nights have to be arranged officially through a rep? If they just send out the pack as a gift why would they include this line?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,818 ✭✭✭Bateman


    Have just banged in the e-mail addresses anyway, see what happens I suppose.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,632 ✭✭✭✭okidoki987


    I'd reckon they just want all the publicity that will go with it
    "being on boards" ;)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,277 ✭✭✭Smithers


    just got this email

    "Congratulations. All your friends have now registered for GUINNESS Poker Nights with Pigsback.com.

    Please be patient while we process your application. We'll be in touch with further details very shortly."

    I would say its for 3 nights as they send you vouchers for cans of guinness on 3 seperate occasions or something like that, anyway cant be bad for free!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 294 ✭✭Souness


    Cheers Smithers, just signed up! The wording is a bit strange, sounds like some Guiness guy goin to call round the house and act as dealer!:D

    Savage lads, great find, thanks a mil


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,277 ✭✭✭Smithers


    anyone hear anything since or did anyone ring them?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,277 ✭✭✭Smithers


    Mustnt have trusted ya Elites, or else they are ramdomally testing for people using 3 of their own email addresses to get the offer maybe?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,632 ✭✭✭✭okidoki987


    Left them a number to get a call back on Wednesday and even though it states" we will contact you within 24 hours" never heard a word.:confused:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,277 ✭✭✭Smithers


    i never got a call either


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,829 ✭✭✭JackieChan


    Guys, who wants a call back??? I just want the poker set....Roll on the end of October.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,632 ✭✭✭✭okidoki987


    Got call this evening so I guess they don't count the day you register
    as day one.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,894 ✭✭✭Nunu


    Guys, of those who got a phonecall was there any mention of the '3 poker nights', or are you just getting the set sent out with no obligation on your part?

    Bloke mentioned that I hd to get 3 friends to register to get the set but nothing about " poker nights" Iasked him didthey do anything or did I have to organise everything and he said they supplied the stuff but you had to organise it so I'm not sure what the "3 poker nights " is all about. :confused:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,277 ✭✭✭Smithers


    i think they will give free vans of guinness vouchers staggered by 3 seperate days, voila, 3 nights


  • Posts: 0 [Deleted User]


    got an email today from Guinness saying that my application is being processed.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 331 ✭✭EWheelChair


    They send the host the poker set and the friends vouchers for cans and invitations to the hosts house for poker. Thats it, nothing else.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 326 ✭✭the-ging


    Anybody got one yet???


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 893 ✭✭✭Doodlebug


    No reply to my email address yet, anyway!!!! I hope its just that they're coping with the demand!! :-/


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,830 ✭✭✭irishproduce


    My guys have registered, I called there to comfirm, guess what. Guiness say there is no reference for the number I provided?
    Anyone else get this.
    I gave the reference number to my guys and they all said the person on the other end confirmed everything was registered to my address.
    Now all of a sudden there is no such reference number?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 62 ✭✭LunaC


    Registered ages ago, rang them a few times and they keep saying you should recieve the set soon...


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,238 ✭✭✭leex


    Anyone get these yet?

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,277 ✭✭✭Smithers


    they never called me to confirm, anyone else get no call??


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,830 ✭✭✭irishproduce


    I Have Asked My Guys To Register Again Under Another Ref No. They Gave Me. So Heres Waiting Again!!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 893 ✭✭✭Doodlebug


    Has anyone got theirs yet? I have heard not a peep from 'em since.

    C'mon Diagio, help me gamble & drink! :)


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 208 ✭✭Absolut


    Anybody get one yet?

    I applied 2 weeks ago and my friends applied within 3 days, still no reply though.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 416 ✭✭tvr


    i am a little pissed , applied ages ago ( 4 weeks ) and was told everyone signed up .

    by the way wheres this reference number , i just got an email saying

    "Congratulations. All your friends have now registered for GUINNESS Poker Nights with Pigsback.com.

    Please be patient while we process your application. We'll be in touch with further details very shortly."

    might lodge a complaint , as the marketing information they gathered on us is worth alot.

    do to be honest I could have told them that bulmers is now in and guinness is not. is not rocket science.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,237 ✭✭✭lau1247


    Kinda pissed too..
    Haven't from them since I registered a few weeks back..

    Then again, last time I register for the Lynx Click thing, it never arrive either..
    What a waste of my credit to text them up for it..
    now I'm really pissed just thinking of it..
    At least with this one I did it online

    nothing here either, got the "Congratulations. All your friends have now registered for GUINNESS Poker Nights with Pigsback.com" email 3 weeks ago and have heard nothing since :mad:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,088 ✭✭✭byrner88


    plus if u ring a number which is given in the pack any of the poker nights they will send u a pizza complenemtry of dominos or 4 star . its gr8 i got my poker set about a month ago


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,830 ✭✭✭irishproduce


    I had to do everything again and I am now afraid to ring them in case they say I never registered. I will call up there and beat them with the ref no. they gave me.
    How does it work, do all the guys get a voucher to come round your house??


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,632 ✭✭✭✭okidoki987


    Still nothing :mad:


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 6,151 ✭✭✭Thomas_S_Hunterson


    I gave them a ring yesterday, they said it should be with me by the end of the month!

    The line I used is 1890212121


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,411 ✭✭✭stooge


    It's a great offer alright but it's weird the way they just send you a confirmation email with no reference number or exact details of when they will reply. quite obvious they want to to ring them. I got my confirmation email 3 weeks ago...think its time to ring up and see whats going on.


  • Posts: 0 [Deleted User]


    I just rang there myself, got my ref number and was told i'll have my pack in the next week


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,894 ✭✭✭Nunu


    The line I used is 1890212121

    Just rang this number. I got my confirmation e-mail on Oct17. There was no ref no. with it. He asked me for my reference no. but could confrm through my name and e-mail address. He said it would take 12 weeks!
    I doubt I'll ever get it.:(

    Just off the phone to them, usuall bull**** being put through to different people, going around in circles.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,632 ✭✭✭✭okidoki987
