Have a reservation number for Memopad in Liffey Valley, Dublin which can be collected from tomorrow until Friday. Price on reservation says 59.99 - anyone need it?

Collected it this morning. No fuss about the price. Thanks so much for the code. I am delighted.

Any other asus memopad tablet codes for dublin (pref centre), naas, carlow on the go please? Apparently my folks want one of them androids for festivus now...

Just got this e-mail off Argos saying a PS4 with Last of Us, Fifa 15 and The Crew for €349.99. Knew it was too good to be true! Obviously a mistake, comes up as €399.99 on website.

Wonder will they honour it?

Collected two of the Asus tablets from Argos (Stephens Green) this morning. Showed up as €99.99 on the self-service but showed the emails with the €59.99 price and it was no problem. Even got a €10 gift card for each one. Great result.

Will appreciate if someone can send me asus tablet code for Dublin.
Thank in advance

There's a new thread for asking for reservation codes now

Edit: Only need to post there, posting there and here defeats the purpose of the other thread! :P

After reading the aggro some people got in Dundrum trying to get the Asus tablets for €59.99 I was dreading going in today but I am sitting here happy as Larry having gotten the tablet for the cheaper price AND I got the €10 voucher. Manager had to over ride the displayed price but she was lovely about it, no issue whatsoever.

Phew!

Just a question with regard picking up the Asus tab on reservation. Will I need to show them a copy of the email or will the code on its own be enough? (got a code from a fellow bordsie so heading to blanchardstown tomorrow)

I think the code shows the regular price when they input it. I'd want the email if it was me. Picking one up later myself and I'll have the email at the ready. If I just had the code I'd find it hard to explain the different price. Maybe request that you get forwarded the email?

the Dyson DC 35 cost me 219 on Sunday, did not realise the promotion code has not been used at the time of purchase until today, went back to Dundrum Argos, the lady in red jumper went off with receipt, came back in a few secs,and told me there is no 15% off applied to Dyson, cos it is not home-ware. but i insist to get customer care office number, she opens one argos book and quotes telephone number (1800535091) from the book,but when i got home, make a call with number, it says the number is not reachable from my region.

so my question is whether the 15% applied to Dyson? and what should i do now?


thanks.

That number is for home deliveries, (and they have different numbers for that depending on whether you phone from a landline or mobile). I don't think hoovers come under "Home ware".

Anyone else still waiting on the asus tablet to come back into stock? I have a reservation for carlow telling me it should be in between 1 & 3rd, no stock in yet & girl at customer services told me this evening that my reservation runs out tonight, ??? Anyone else the same? She also told me i wouldn't get it at the reserved price anyway?

I've just had the same experience and have sent the following email to info@argos.ie

Am very annoyed!

To whom it concerns

I went to pick up this order today and was told it was unavailable. Why?

I spent one hour trying to reserve it on Friday and was finally successful. I then took time off to go in to the store today to pick it up. What a disgrace!

I am furious and was given no explanation by customer service other than they had none and none would be coming.

I would appreciate a response at your earliest convenience.
I should have been offered a superior model at the reserved price.

Regards

Eh, no you should not.

In the uk people who reserved dyson 35's were given dyson 44's presumably as dyson 35 were out of stock. I'm not asking for special treatment, I'm asking for similar.
