Forgot to mention; 2100 points for ?4

www.very.co.uk & use code: ZZ449 which gives you a ?15 discount then use xv002 for free delivery

Report back if this works for you because Very/LittleWoods are a PITA to deal with. They are known to cancel orders.

OK, as this is a very very tempting deal, I've decided to be the guinea pig for this one. :p

The order went through alright. Shame about the delivery date though. BTW, it was the same before I put in the code. Cheeky gits were gonna charge ?3.95 for what was basically Second Class Post!

I've tested myself, all you need to do is use a different name/email. Possibly just the email address.

Spending spree time (Y)

Yours sincerely, King of Deals (& teh jungle :p)

Screw it, I'll order another one! :p I'm on Google Mail, so straight away, I've got two addresses for the same account.

Ahh crap, the ?15 code isn't working for me. :( The free delivery code works fine, but not the other one.

Shame, but probably for the best, as I need at least ?40 to cover the difference for my new headphones, and ordering another ?4 of Microsoft Points would take me just under that. :p

Yeah it's because it's only supposed to be for your first order. Use a different name & email and you're good to go (Y)

I did use a different email (this time it ended in "@googlemail.com" instead of "@gmail.com"). I think my mistake at least shows you need to use a different name AND email address.

Guys, just a heads up with Very/Littlewoods/etc vouchers.

They have, in the past, come chasing people who have used vouchers without actually being sent them to claim it back (to the point where they've actually threatened legal action for fraud). If you search BBC for "littlewoods vouchers" you'll see more info about this.

Use vouchers from these guys with extreme caution.

Can confirm the ?15 code is now stopped, pity I was after some more points. Anyone know where to get 2100 or 4200 points cheap? Even the online sellers seem to be selling them at ?17.95 ?35 respectively :(

£14.99 at 7dayshop.

Edit: for 2100 points ofc.

Very cancelled my points orders - unsurprisingly. Knew they would, really despise the company lol.

It does work though if you're lucky enough. A friend ordered some & they arrived. Although the way they operate vouchers is they take the full amount, dispatch, then refund the amount saved. Really shoddy system.

Oh well was worth a try!

Btw to get an extra £1 off at The Hut use the code: BANK1

Ugh man, do we really need than animated avatar, I didn't even think they were allowed.

Subtle ones are sometimes okay like.

EDIT:

BAH WTF?!?!?!??!?!?!?!?!?!?!??!????!!!1!elevns

:blush:

As I've found out, the cheeky buggers. If it weren't for the fact that I had to end up paying the difference for my new headphones with my parents' PayPal account (don't worry, they know; and I'm paying it all back when I get my EMA on Saturday), I'd have been overdrawn by now.

I hope they don't take too long in refunding the money, but at least my order actually got honoured! :D

They pay the money back in very (no pun) close to dispatch. So you'll get it (with luck) before the end of the week or start of next week. Might be a bit longer cause of the holidays. Dunno how they'll operate with that & the banks etc.

    • Personally, I’ve found that it’s usually worth investing in the infrastructure you don’t want to replace later, especially cabling. Running Cat6A (or better, depending on your needs) during an upgrade is relatively inexpensive compared to having to re-cable a few years down the road. For switches I try to balance current specs with realistic growth. If my budget allows it Ill choose switches with higher uplink speeds which leaves room for expanding later on, but I don’t necessarily overspend on access ports if the endpoints won’t benefit from them anytime soon. One lesson I’ve learned is that planning for scalability pays off. It’s much easier to add devices, VLANs, or higher-bandwidth workloads when your network infrastructure already supports it than to replace hardware later.  What is your budget like?
    • I hate the term, "future-proof." We saw it back in the 90's / 2000's, if not before. You cannot future-proof anything, since there is no definition of how far into the future you plan on prepping for. Best idea is to tell us what you currently have and what its use is at the moment, and we can then offer ideas about some areas that might need an upgrade and other areas that can be left alone.
    • I can agree that it is being used in a small capacity. I worked for a company where their engineers still used XP, and when asked why it was because their sensor software wasn't compatible with newer operating systems and the software was discontinued so they couldn't upgrade the software. Given that the sensors were still in use by companies, they had to continue using XP to support the sensor, otherwise the price to the company would have gone into the millions or billions. Our response was simple: Ok, you can keep the XP machine. But we're removing it from the network. "But then it can't access the Internet or folder shares!" Yup, kinda the point. If someone wants to continue using an unsecure OS they can do, I have no problem with that. But it should be isolated. Simple. I had a fight with a guy in the engineering department for weeks before he finally relented. But we digress.   What do I plan on doing to commemorate the anniversary? Nothing. I have fond memories of the OS, but at the end of the day it's just an OS. If I had some time I might see if I could install it on my Raspberry Pi for a laugh. But my reflex memory with today's OS ideas would probably get me frustrated and I'd uninstall it after 5 mins.
