Screwfix 10% Discount

Yes, that's the latest of several I've received recently.

Do you need a code or is it taken off automatically at the checkout stage?

And does it apply in store as well? I have some in store only vouchers that need spending...

It contains what it calls a "Unique Offer Code" - consisting of 2 letters and 7 digits - which I assume is specific to my account, and wouldn't work for anyone else. You have to spend at least £50 to get the 10% discount. When you enter the code, it doesn't reduce the balance shown on screen but it *does* reduce the amount charged to your credit card. I used to be sceptical about this - but have done it several times, and it *does* work.

The offer is described as a "A Web Exclusive" - which pretty much rules out using it in store, I would have thought.

Bother, thanks anyway might be off to B&Q with that 15% voucher and the 3 for 1 loft insulation... B-)

I have sucessfully used the 'unique' code sent to a friend, so I don't think they are that unique.

Alan.

That's interesting!

If so, why is there an option to print on the voucher?

I've used previous ones in store no problem .... even used a couple of reprints of the same voucher

As far as I can see, there *isn't* a print option on mine, and the instructions only deal with using it on-line.

Maybe yours is different?

LOL .... sorry my bad - I got this confused with the B&Q 15% off voucher thread

The T&C's in the Screwfix email state web use only

I've just had a look at all the recent SF emails containing the 10% offer (all sitting in my Deleted folder) - and have discovered that the "unique codes" all consist of my Customer Number, preceded by 2 letters. The letters are different each time, but the numbers are always the same.

So it's all the more curious as to how a voucher could be used by anyone other than the customer to whom the email was sent.
