    Affinity offer once you give them the code it's all gravy


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,907 ✭✭✭✭Kristopherus


    If you quote the BT Affinity No given in the OP, then you should get the offer. If there's a big take-up, that will mean there's a lot of BT staff in Ireland:D:D:D.

    This seems to the same tariff as always. This must be someone from Setanta doing some marketing as there seems no news in this 'offer'


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,014 ✭✭✭Soarer

    Same tariff, but two months free.

    Can you give a link to this, as I cant find anything about 2 months free, unless you pay up front for a year.

    No goer, they ask for your employee number of the company you work for, and there is a cancellation fee but she wouldnt answer me when she realised I hadnt got the number.

    No cancelation fee. Gave a made up company name and staff id of 6 digits, was a bit sketchy kept putting me on hold but went through for €1 for 2 months


  • Site Banned Posts: 880 ✭✭✭whiteshorts


    Heard an ad on the radio saying it was €12.99 per month up to tomorrow.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 684 ✭✭✭Nibs05


    I signed up to the offer back in December, canceled last month.

    Received a letter today saying thanks for signing up to Setanta and that I have chosen to make annual payments ! ( i have not called to resign up) and the amount to be collected is €1

    What the hell ???

    "Compu-Global-Hyper-Mega-Net" was probably already used.


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


    Ordinary call to them tonight, €12.99 a month for 2 months (then €19.99) plus a €14.99 connection one off fee.
    Can't see too many knocking their doors down for that offer.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,151 ✭✭✭Etnies


    It's mad the 1 month free post was 100 odd pages, 2 months free barely anyone uses it ha.

    I signed up for December for offer, then continued on for Jan, Feb & March @ €9.99 per month. I'd say a lot of other posters already subscribed too. Obviously I'd be all over this offer otherwise.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,151 ✭✭✭Etnies


    Well glad I waited so, by time this is over won't be to much left on the season anyway. Delighted got to watch Liverpool hammer arsenal in HD :)

    I got this also during last week.

    I emailed them and they got back and admitted it was sent out in error.

    They then also confirmed that I am actually on the €9.99 a month for 3 months.

    If I were you, I would contact them just in case.

    Tried to subscribe, read op wrongly thought wears supposed to say staff member. Was 8.99 a month. Asked about the 1 euro, she said are you sure you are staff? So cancelled.......do you think I could ring back and say actually not staff but a customer or would they have put a note on the account?

    Hi, I think I might be similar to you in that I got the €1 deal for December and then availed of the €9.99 deal for three months.

    What day are you going to ring back to cancel or try get the deal again, i.e. before it doubles in price?

    I said I wanted to avail of the BT Affinity offer

    I was asked where I work. I didn't know what to say so I said my actual company's name

    Was then told it was only open to employees of specific companies.

    Did the conversation go differently for those who got it?

    I hinted at being offered this by someone who contacted me from Setanta. Was never asked to even give the BT quote in the OP.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 914 ✭✭✭gazzaman22


    If i'm asked where i work should i say setanta, or BT, and if asked whats my employee number i should say 99xxxx

    Any other possible scenarios?

    Do not say you work with BT that is where I went wrong!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 559 ✭✭✭DB74


    Just home and rang Setanta and the call centre is closed from 6pm!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 192 ✭✭wardie101


    Got on just before 6...cheers OP...worked a treat, no hassle at all


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,151 ✭✭✭Etnies


    For those who didn't get it, I gave instructions on first few pages in.. Should of went by that, will check football fixtures after 2 months is up maybe try get the 9.99 for end of season then


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,914 ✭✭✭kooga


    for many the current offer of €9.99 a month for three months will be coming up for renewal soon, that is the march payment is due this Saturday just wondering what offers will be available considering only two months left in both the rugby and football season april and may


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 21,296 ✭✭✭✭gimmick


    Just rang to cancel - he asked why. I said because my offer is running out and 30 days notice etc. He said he can extend it for the end of May for the same price - €9.99 a month, so I took it.
