Hi all,
I was just about to purchase all the parts of my comp today, when I accidently left out the "Issue Number" field of the credit card info form.
Because of this, my card was rejected and has been blacklisted for 24hours.
By the time the block is lifted, the One Week offers will have changed, so does this mean that all of the items I tried to buy that were on offer will be back to their normal price on my order?
This really sucks, and I think it means I'll have to wait like 2 weeks to get the e6600 too.. *sigh*.

Credit cards don't have issue numbers anyway, only start/expiry date and the CVV/CVC number from the back. It's only Maestro (switch) cards that have issue numbers, maybe Visa Elecron cards too but I've never had one so I'm not 100% on that.

Not all Maestro/Switch do either
 
Exactly, they dont, and the form was very unclear as to what it wanted me to do. I *think* I was supposed to enter a Zero into the field, but I'm not 100% sure. I'll need to call them tomorrow to make sure, as I dont want to wait another 24 hours to place my order.

Thats your best bet, phone them before they change the offers, im not sure what time they do that but get in quick. I cant remember what i did when i last ordered, but im pretty sure i left it blank. Sure its not your card issuer being a bit of a muppet? Phone them and check
 
I think the card thing *MAY* be irrelevent. Your order stands as what it is.

For some reason I'm thinking about when websites incorrectly price items, and they have to sell them to you at the price according to your invoice. (Does that make sense..)
 
The This Week Only offers won't be replaced until sometime tomorrow.

If you contact the guys in sales first thing, I'm sure they will be able to sort you out. :)
