Yes. Zoom told me the offer is no longer valid. Fair enough. But that's not what it said when I ordered. Obviously I'll know not to bother in future. But on this occasion they owe me a pound.

we'll do a markaid for your quid if Zoom don't refund

I'm curious to see how this gets resolved, because I pre-ordered the Godzilla set using the code while the offer was still valid (no PayPal, card). That would be quite a bit more than one pound.

Zoom got back to me pretty quick, too... they told me there was a pre-purchase warning at checkout that the code had not be applied/was not applicable. That's not true. If it had said that I wouldn't have expected any discount, would I? It's not the price, it's the principle. I don't like to be charged more than I agreed to pay. That's against the law. Another e-mail...

Had you signed in? The code can work before you sign-in and then gets removed at check-out.

saltysam · 09-13-2019, 04:30 PM

Code still works if you can be bothered to order with a different email address each time. i'm sure they'll close that loophole soon too, i'm not bothered, it was always meant to be a one time code and i've probably saved hundreds over the last couple of years.

Honestly not sure. But at no point did I see any THIS SHIT AIN'T VALID notice. The last total I saw was £8.99. Only when I got my confirmation e-mail did it say £9.99. I don't expect to get anything back as I can't prove I didn't see what they said I should've seen. Although you have to wonder what kind of customer service would call a customer a liar over a pound!

saltysam · 09-13-2019, 04:43 PM

You are right,it doesn't tell you. Same thing happened to me when ordering JW3.I've took it on the chin as it was only ever meant to be a one only deal. Howver as i've said,for now there's still the loophole of using a different email addy.

Below you can see that the code works before and after signing in, but once I clicked a payment option (bottom left) the price changes to reflect the code not being used. Also there's a warning that items in the basket may have changed since they were added. I hope they don't change that!

Can the Amazon 4K code only be used once per account? I've used it once but now its not accepting a different code for anything.

Dante20161 · 09-13-2019, 06:05 PM

Stranger I got the same thing, bought something, got another 4k code from amazon tried to put it in but it did not work so it looks like one time code only I think

CouncilSpectre · 09-13-2019, 06:05 PM

Same here

Same. Which is confusing.

derek_1999 · 09-13-2019, 06:16 PM

Same here - a one time code I guess (probably the initial code is accepted by your account - after that, it'll just reject any others).

I'd guess we're simply getting a code sent when we purchase something, as it'd be harder to make the database track if it has already sent a code (and it had been used) etc... simpler to keep letting the DB send out codes (that we can't use). LOL

Here's my third code, ran out of accounts to use it on

I'm sure I didn't see that last minute change. But now I'm questioning whether it was there and I just missed it. I thought I'd checked... but now I just don't know.

Well, lesson learnt.

My code is ES4V-5JJXN2-TUWABE. Have no use for it, so go ahead.

jabz · 09-14-2019, 08:25 AM

Hi does the amazon code apply to the whole cart, or just a single 4K title?
