Magnet give away

Oct 09, 2008 10 Replies

Place I was working at yesterday, the lady next door was the manager of the local Magnet branch.



She asked me if I wanted to open an account, an hour later the rep came around! Gave me a goodie bag, tee shirt & free Irwin jack saw. Didn't want trade or bank references, or bank details.



They have a deal where if you open an account you get 20 tubes of silicone free! Don't have to spend anything.



Doubt I'll ever spend much with them, but I've got enough silicone to last for months.



You can also get £100 off your first order if its over £150, so if anyone's looking for a new front door or something it could be worth a look.



Sorry, couldn't resist...

20 tubes of silicone? Worth say £2 a tube, that's £40 saved which can be wisely invested in beer...

That rep has broken the terms and conditions of his company by not asking you for bank details and references. Jesus! they even want your passport and NI number.... sod them off.

Hes on about the copany nae Dave ie "attractive offer" Magnet...geddit?

Did they give you a Magnet fridge magnet though?

More than that, if you take into account you don't have to pay tax on it.

I was also accosted yesterday by a wandering Magnet salesdroid. His offer was £100 money off voucher with a minimum spend of £100, but sadly no T shirt. He didnt want any bank details either & had an account opened for me early this morning when his manager called me to confirm.

After my experiences in the local Magnet branch, I wouldn't warm my hands at the fire as it burned down.

We ordered kitchen furniture, cupboards etc from Magnet years ago. More than a year later not all the bits had been delivered. Cowboys.
