Hi all
Anyone know if there is a minimum order price before you can get free postage for forum members. I have not had a problem before so am wondering if this is a new rule, any info
 
Is your forum account showing as linked? I've ordered items as low as £4 and got free delivery.
so have I in the past but not now...and yes my account is linked. I have spoke to sales rep on the phone who confirmed to me that there is a minimum cost before the free delivery kicks in and also spoke to the sales team on here who also confirmed this, I asked him to make it known to the public so everone is aware, He was not sure it had not all ready been notified some where but he said he would check up about it
 
In all honesty, from a personal stand point I wouldn't be expecting 'free' delivery for smaller deliveries and when I do make orders I try to make it 'fair' to OCUK, they don't have to offer us free delivery as a members bonus.
well thats you.................... the free postage is for loyalty as much as anything else. I have bought things under a tenor loads of times, in most cases where I could have driven to the nearest "hot food computershop" and bought it but instead i go here rather than spend money else where, I would sooner give OCUK my money, thats what loyalty means in my book. But now OCUK are just throwing money away by making the minimum charge £8.70 regardless of the cost of the item. the fact that we are now expected to pay a minimum of £8.70 postage for an item worth say £5 is not very good is it hence the remarks on here saying people are now going else where for things. Maybe a lower priced delivery option based on what you are buying would be better than an £8.70 price across the board. My order the other day was for some fan cables which was £2.99 then the delivery off £8.70 made it £11.69 which is ridiculas, that item could have been sent in a envelope for the price of 1st class stamp.
