    Thanks, the order page doesn’t include the 100 capsules or the subscription, so it seems the offer didn’t process correctly. We just assumed they’d come with the order.

    I’ve followed up with them and they’re sending the capsules. They have to get back to me on the subscription.


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,092 ✭✭✭gar


    Same the 100 will be delivered in the coming days. Cheers folks!

    Was thinking that myself. I'd imagine they would ramp up the shipping from boutiques here instead of it coming from the UK.

    I contacted their support. They ship from. An Irish warehouse for ireland

    Received the 100 capsules and credit today.

    How does the sub work with the credit?

    Subscription is just auto topping up with x amount of credit each month - follow steps on the card, it should create the sub and give you €34 credit immediately, then you can cancel and keep that €34 to spend on whatever you want, cups, capsules, etc.

    If you don't cancel, one month from now it'll charge your card for another €34 and so on and so forth..until month 6 when you get another free '€33' or something like that. *(i'm open to correction!) , it's not awful if you'll be drinking at least €33 worth of coffee a month! You'll probably get better perspective when ya see how long it takes you to get through the 100capsules whether its worth it or not.

    Still waiting for my new code :(


  • Registered Users Posts: 517 ✭✭✭benji79


    What way are delivery times? I ordered machine Monday night at 9 o’clock. Can I expect much of a wait?


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,115 ✭✭✭BigAl81


    I got an email that the machines are out of stock in some colours and to call them. Maybe check your spam folder if you're waiting a while.

    On the phone i picked a new colour and was told about 7 days for postage.

    Interesting ! Mine left the warehouse but was not registered with the courier for delivery. I had to chase them today after 2 weeks of not hearing from them. After a bit of discussion, they agreed to send me a new machine, although the Aerochino is not currently in stock so will have to wait for that.


  • Registered Users Posts: 5,882 ✭✭✭tusk


    finally receved the code! woop

    Off topic but got a lovely thank you from Nespresso 2day, a free sleeve. And when I went to reorder I got a €4 rebate off the travel mug, delighted with myself

    Purchased one of the ventuo plus machines in Did on Tuesday for 84. Sign up in store about the 100 capsules free on selected machines. Filled in a form online but haven't heard back from them. Hoping machine I bought qualifies as makes it a good deal. Guy in the shop wasn't sure. Wasn't really in the market for a new coffee machine, was more of an impulse buy :D

    Just to update if anyone's still looking for a deal on these. Got an email from nespresso to say the machine I got qualifies for both the 100 free capsules and the free 1st and 6th month subscription. Machine has paid for itself already. I checked online the day I bought it and the €84 machine wasn't on the DID website, so must be an in store only offer

    Anyone else find that this coffee machine is just huge? I was all prepared to buy it and saw it in a shop today and I was surprised at the size of it. It would take up significant counter space.

    Yeah its bloody huge and my cunterspace is small.


    Can't rembr when I ordr but I'm nearly out of capsules. Any deals going?



    I also find that I dont use the Milk frothier as much, I'd say 10% of the time.



    Has anyone actually descaled/cleaned out their coffee mahine.

    Is there not a 'Sex & Sexuality' forum for this type of stuff?

    I've had to do it twice despite only having the machine a few weeks and hardly using it ;(


  • Registered Users Posts: 6,811 ✭✭✭Alkers


    Does anyone remember should I cancel the subscription now or if we hang on will we get another €30 for month 6?

    How does the latest offer work?

    https://www.nespresso.com/ie/en/offers/vertuo-promotion

    Aeroccino Milk Frother
    Your second gift of 2 free months (1st and 6th) of Coffee Credit will arrive with your machine. The free Aeroccino Milk Frother will be sent to you with your first order placed using the gifted Subscription credit.

    Can you get the frother and cancel the subscription after the 1st month or how does this work?

    Is this a good deal or better of waiting?

    Thanks

    I'm not in the market for a machine, but they are to be complemented on their cancellation format

    "Telephone, email or simply click the cancel button online"

    Pity some newspapers (indo and business post) and places like sky don't offer the same consumer friendly policy.


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,092 ✭✭✭gar


    Never did the subscription when I got the machine. Was there a code to use to get the e30 credit or just given on sign up for the 1st time?

    Scratchcard in the box, activate and you get the 30 credit (+4 bonus I think)...I kept it up surprisingly, powering through the capsules..have few of the recycling bags full waiting for collection!

    Not everyone got the scratch card if I remember correctly...!
    New deal is still good but looks like they've lumped the aerocinno in with the subscription so you don't get it immediately with the machine.

    The deal is available on Amazon for £79.65 after import fees!

    This works out at about €93 (using Revolut to pay) so a saving of €26 on the €119 Nepresso price! ;)

    Same offer! :)

    And Amazon's great customer service too (although I know Nespresso are decent also).

    I bought one of these during the week from the warehouse for £51.75.

    https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B07PD9ZMKT/ref=ox_sc_act_title_1?smid=A3P5ROKL5A1OLE&pldnSite=1&th=1

    It said "acceptable" condition. It looks like it was never used and the original plastic wrapping is still on it. The only thing that was missing from the box was the 12 pod welcome pack. The box was a bit battered all right. The serial number worked fine with the offer for the free aeroccino and 2 free months sub. If you aren't happy with a warehouse item you can just send it back for free anyway.

    This is now reduced to £69 with the offer still included!

    About €81!

    That's €38 cheaper than Nespresso's own website!

    Does anyone else's machine need regular descaling?

    I've had to do it three times already and the machine is rarely used ;(

    No definitely not and ours is used every single day. You must have hard water possibly causing it? Something definitely not right there.

    Have a look at the nespresso website for the info you're looking for. Prices vary from 45c to 72c depending on the cup/mug size . Capsules can't be bought in regular stores. Nespresso have 3/4 "boutiques" in Ireland, 2 or 3 in Dublin, 1 in Limerick. Compatible capsules can't be bought for this machine. But you can buy a reusable stainless steel capsule and make your own.
