    The link isn’t working

    Try it again and see, should display the landing page with options for Men/Womens/Kids/Home etc.

    works fine for me. I assume welcome10 probably works

    Yeah, just checked and it still works for orders over €50.

    Free standard delivery also works with it and the SNEAKPEEK code.

    If you use the WELCOME10 code I think the express discount is removed though?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 16,181 ✭✭✭✭iamwhoiam


    Thank you ! Just got some great bargains

    Ah you are right


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 380 ✭✭philboy


    I placed two orders under two different email address.

    Order 1
    They cancelled one of my 3 items (which is still up on their website) seemingly so that I did not get the WELCOME10 discount

    Order 1
    They cancelled my order (single item pair of shoes) saying "Unfortunately, the item(s) that you ordered was out of stock and we have had to cancel your order." more than likely because I used the WELCOME10 discount under a separate email address.

    The item is still up on the website and showing in stock. I'd prefer if they said that you cannot use the code for the same delivery address.
    Has anyone else come across this issue?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 888 ✭✭✭magicray


    Thanks for posting bought some work clothes, hate paying full price for work stuff


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,687 ✭✭✭✭TheDriver


    Thats strange, I have had things before cancelled but still available on the website.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 380 ✭✭philboy


    They have also done it on a third order that I had placed. I am going to place another order now under a different name and choose store collection instead without the WELCOME10 code and see if that is not cancelled. If this is the case, that proves to be poor form.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 19,340 CMod ✭✭✭✭Davy


    I dont think its anything to do with the WELCOME10 code.

    The stock comes from the UK and this sale is on the UK site from this morning also, so the level of orders is probably crazy.

    When the stock levels will get updated then you wont be able to add the items to the cart, but with so many orders its gonna happen.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,776 ✭✭✭podge3


    Just had 2 orders cancelled, both using the WELCOME10 discount.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,687 ✭✭✭✭TheDriver


    I had lots of my items cancelled but some got despatched with the pro rata of the welcome10 applied so its a stock issue and amount of sales.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 16,181 ✭✭✭✭iamwhoiam


    Just had an order cancelled on me too ,.Used the SNEAKPEEK50 .But am guessing its due to high traffic on the site .


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 380 ✭✭philboy


    Just a quick update for everyone. I placed an order again without the WELCOME10 discount code and that was cancelled so it seems that it may be genuinely due to stock levels. Disappointing that a major online retailer using an advanced eCommerce platform such as Demandware don't have a better stock updating system in place, regardless of whether or not multiple regional stores are pulling from a central stocking system. Offers such a poor user experience.

    I had most of my order cancelled & like other posters mentioned, items still showing as in stock on the site. I always shop in the sale & this is the first time this has happened. Maybe they changed their systems, but it is very poor service.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,220 ✭✭✭jos28


    Add me to the list of people having half my order cancelled :mad: Chuffed with the bargains but obviously would have like all of my items dispatched


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 16,181 ✭✭✭✭iamwhoiam


    I had one item cancelled and out of curiosity I went back in an hour later and able to order it again and once again it was cancelled .


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 319 ✭✭munsterbear


    How quick did they cancel your order?

    Ordered a 3 piece suit earlier and no cancellation email so fingers crossed


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,220 ✭✭✭jos28

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,425 ✭✭✭Beersmith


    3/10 cancelled for me. Cancelled straight away which seems weird


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,587 ✭✭✭DesperateDan


    Anything special you need for SNEAKPEEK50 to work? Gf trying here with some jeans at 47.50 and it ain't working. Added two incase order needs to be over 50 and no dice either.

    It's only for items that show in the original link or that say 50% off in red writing underneath the item. I didn't actually have to use the code the discount showed when added to basket.

    My order was cancelled 3 mins after placing it.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,687 ✭✭✭✭TheDriver


    I placed another order with welcome 10 and items that were out of stock earlier along with other items. Got email 10 mins later that only certain items were coming so 10 euro worth of stuff on its way


  • Moderators, Science, Health & Environment Moderators, Social & Fun Moderators, Society & Culture Moderators Posts: 60,110 Mod ✭✭✭✭Tar.Aldarion


    initially added welcome10 fine but then it said welcome10 was invalid when i went to pay, and to remove it from my basket.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 406 ✭✭martin101


    I paid as a guest and never took down the order number. Didn't get a confirmation email either. Half asleep buying stuff online is not good. It's just pending on my online bank account. Is there anyway to retrieve the order number now? Can't track my order or anything as I paid as a guest. Have a feeling I'll wake up tomorrow to an email saying out of stock though.

    Two shirts for less than 40 blips. Great start to Monday.

    When is the sale meant to start. Everything I'd ordered yesterday and had cancelled is still available to order now. Money is showing as pending in my account aswell which is annoying.

    Really irritating to order and then get a cancellation email 2 mins later. Particularly as now the €47 is held as pending on my debit card


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 406 ✭✭martin101


    Still just pending on my online bank account. No confirmation about buying anything on my email. Anyone else get this?

    Same here , two cancellations and now the money pending on my card . Very annoying and poor control on the site /


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 791 ✭✭✭viv2


    I placed another order but 5 mins later I got an email saying its been despatched but they amended it as some items were out of stock. All but 1 item removed. Full amount pending in my account.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,933 ✭✭✭daheff


    added the sneakpeak code...but no discount is applied.

    I'm at the checkout screen. Tells me the discount is already in my cart if i try add it again


    wouldnt bother buying if i dont get the discount


    Edit:Placed order. No Sneakpeek discount applied. 2 mins after placing order i get a cancellation email for one of the items.

    Just rang customer services about discount..was told they dont do multiple discounts on an order. I had selected 3 shirts for 120, so that overrode the sneekpeak discount.

    so i just cancelled the whole order instead.

    Bad form to be cancelling all the orders. Is this a valid sale or a ‘hidden’ sale that we’re not supposed to be using?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 406 ✭✭martin101


    How long does the pending now take to come off our bank accounts? 3 to 4 days I presume?

    Yeah usually.

    Its amazing how they can instantly take it out but take 3-4 days to put it back. :rolleyes:

    PJs and pants for work? Do you test beds or something? :)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 925 ✭✭✭Captainsatnav


    I tend to sleep on the job

    Edit : spoke too soon. The PJs were cancelled

    Yes - just now. Price for what is available is listed as the full price which is a tad worrying. Presume the actual debit will be minus 50%.

    My e mail had the price with 50% already taken off .
    So jumper was 46 and my e mail was for €23 .
