Kushan Posted January 6, 2009 Share Posted January 6, 2009 Game do that all the time, you just have to ring their customer support and tell them. A friend of mine Ordered the Special edition of GTAIV and got the special edition of GRID instead. He was not happy, but the daft git ended up buying GRID anyway lol Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/598471-official-uk-xbox-360-special-offers-deals/page/47/#findComment-590371818 Share on other sites More sharing options...
MightyJordan Posted January 6, 2009 Share Posted January 6, 2009 What's their customer support number, though? There's nothing on their site at all.

.KICK Posted January 6, 2009 Share Posted January 6, 2009 Isn't there a slip in the package saying you can send it back? Also should have a phone number. Game 0871 2001221 01256 784024 Customer services menuSwitchboard: 01256 784000 p/o Game Group Also for: 0870 7502743, 0870 7502741, 0870 7502747 & 0871 2003436 Try those, the 01256 is the alternative to the 0870 number. I've called Game before numerous times.

Kushan Posted January 6, 2009 Share Posted January 6, 2009 Their OFFICIAL number is 0871 2001221, but **** that, that's an 0871 number and you'll be forced to pay for an expensive call. Instead, use this number: 01256 784024. It's the exact same connection, just at a local rate ;) Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/598471-official-uk-xbox-360-special-offers-deals/page/47/#findComment-590371888 Share on other sites More sharing options...
DrunknMunky Veteran Posted January 6, 2009 Author Veteran Share Posted January 6, 2009 Does anyone know of a number that GAME has so I can ring them up, because I can't find anything on the site, and I'd prefer to actually talk to someone rather than fill out a bloody form. http://www.saynoto0870.com Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/598471-official-uk-xbox-360-special-offers-deals/page/47/#findComment-590371908 Share on other sites More sharing options...

snugglepuffle Posted January 7, 2009 Share Posted January 7, 2009 when i had an issue with a order from GAME.co.uk i ended up just taking it back to a local store and made a return/swap there. i would say try ringing your local GAME IMO as it states on the t&c but take your invoice with you, but also your original order email if you can and they should be able to resolve it instore for you :) i ended up having to return my copy i ordered of halo 3 because the disc was so badly scratched in transit and they happily gave me a full refund as a result. i would imagine they would do something of the like if you have the orginal order and the invoice you got with the game. i can't imagine they would give away a free game as a apoligy but if you want to try and do it through the phone lines and see how that goes then fair do's.

GameOverRob Posted January 7, 2009 Share Posted January 7, 2009 Yarp thats what I thought, I never did play the orginal but I could be tempted with Skate 2 as I heard good things about the orginal but more around the ?30 price mark I think!

DrunknMunky Veteran Posted January 7, 2009 Author Veteran Share Posted January 7, 2009 Yeah I think I bought the original for less than ?30. It's a great game to play and sit back and relax with(Y)) Plus I used to be a complete skate nut in my younger days:pp Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/598471-official-uk-xbox-360-special-offers-deals/page/47/#findComment-590377696 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Twisted Chaz Posted January 7, 2009 Share Posted January 7, 2009 Hmmm I'd prefer to order it through Quidco(?) and then game. Money back + loyalty points!

DrunknMunky Veteran Posted January 7, 2009 Author Veteran Share Posted January 7, 2009 I doubt we'll be seeing a Game voucher anytime soon :( They've been pretty tight with them the past few months. The last one they had was only valid for a few hours..Even then it was for ?3 iirc.

Pheee Posted January 7, 2009 Share Posted January 7, 2009 what makes you think they will remove the loyalty points, and surely if they stop it you could spend the last points, just not earn anymore.

DrunknMunky Veteran Posted January 7, 2009 Author Veteran Share Posted January 7, 2009 I don't think they can just cancel reward points without prior notice/warning. They'd at least let people spend what they have and discontinue them, if anything imo. Don't be spreading FUD Rob :p Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/598471-official-uk-xbox-360-special-offers-deals/page/47/#findComment-590377944 Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Teej Posted January 7, 2009 Share Posted January 7, 2009 I would probably advise people spending game points, incase they decide to remove them! You do realise the amount of money they make on those game points, right? It's like ?10 to get 100 points, and a 1000 points only gets you ?2.50. So, uhh, no, I doubt they will be getting rid of the game point:p:p It's got incredible selling power.

GameOverRob Posted January 8, 2009 Share Posted January 8, 2009 No idea if this game will even come out this year but best price I have seen for it Alan Wake ?37.98 @ Shopto Or ?36.98 if you use the above voucher [Assuming that you can use it on preorders] My Guess for re-using the voucher would be to create another account, perhaps using a different debit/credit card and email.

Guest Posted January 8, 2009 Share Posted January 8, 2009 You'll have to create a new ShopTo account with a different postal address. They don't allow multiple accounts with the same address.
