Can you say where?

skysnapper · 31 Jan 2006 at 20:34

Afraid not as they sell pc's as well

Thats a really good price, I was considering a Samsung but went for LG in the end, I'm really happy with it too. Samsung would have been my No.2 choice.

It's all a bit of a mess really. From the other forum you can't quite tell who's got what discount and if it's been processed correctly. I guess it's all academic to me really as I haven't got the cash to buy myself one anyway .

50 weeks interest free credit .....

You aren't able to buy it on credit as a first time buyer as your credit limit with the catalogue will be around £100.

Actually you can post credit check - at least that is what the girl on the phone told me.

I think you're looking at the wrong screen there. Maybe the 26" for £599, but no way the 32"!!

I agree, I can't find anywhere that does the 32" that cheap.

Not quite sure what you mean VIRII. Say I were to open an account and they give me credit of £150, how do I then get the screen without making a first order and loosing the 20% discount?

I phoned up and placed the order over the phone, I said I wanted the 30% discount but the girl I spoke to only seemed able to give me the 20% discount with the 20% discount code that seems to be available to everyone regardless of being a new customer or not.
Then I said I want the 50 weeks interest free credit, she said OK.

I think people are confused between the 20% off for new customers and the 20% discount code for everyone hence you can get the interest free credit as well, I would rather have the 30% off and pay by credit card but it's good enough for me.

26" is £599
32" is £899

Both are available with a 20% off voucher making them £479 and £719 respectively unless you can find the mysterious 30% off and save a bit more.

So let me get this right, you've bought the 26" on account @ 50 weeks interest free + 20% new customer discount? The part I didn't get from your other post is the "post credit check" part.

I only thought there was a 20% new customer code, didn't know anything about a 30% code or 20% code for existing customers (I take it that is what you mean by everyone). I knew about the 25% code that was declared invalid.

I think the issue is that post-credit check you may only get a £100-150 credit?

Keep us updated with how you get on anyway.

There is 20% for all new customers.
There is a 20% off code that all new and old customers can use.

Having said all this everyone who rings up seems to get a different response from their customer service people.
I'll ring them on friday afternoon to confirm everything with them.

The thing that gets me is that over on the other forums I have been reading, there are still people saying that they have tried all methods to order and they are still getting problems.

I take it the phones are open late? I won't get home from work until 6pm so I can't really call and enquire if they close at 5pm (standard opening hours).

Phones are open till about 10pm even on Saturday I think.
There is a lot of confusion on the other forums, with many people receiving different experiences via customer services.
Best thingis to phone up yourself and see what you can get.

Raider · 2 Feb 2006 at 14:28

Just placed my order after a week of watching other people have all the fun!

But.. when the total came at the end of the order, they hadn't taken the 20% off, even though the offer code was there. So now I have to ring up tomorrow and make absolutely sure i'll get the discount..

Will try and remember to call them when I get back in. Which number did you dial? I know there are a few numbers (0870, 0845 and 0800) for the same dept.
