  Tried creating an new account but failed. Let me know if it works for anyone.

    The promotional code you entered cannot be applied to your purchase. Is the error, just retried

    The Amex code worked on both my amazon accounts, but only once. I read there was a account opening cut-off date applied to stop abuse.

    • J says:

      Pity, was going to abuse it.

      Apparently cancellations are being sent out on second accounts? amex have caught on i guess

  It does stack 🙂

  I did it this morning, got £25 off.

    I suspect most people would have used the AMEX16SWP offer by now (and part pay with Membership Rewards), but if like me you have not then you should definitely do so today together with the BIGTHANKS offer.

  Off topic, but in your pocket 🙂

  Seriously, have you thought about adding a tip jar?

  • Andy says:

    20 Jan20 January 11:30

    I would love to see how many people actually give a tip to them when they cashout, it’s not like they’re a plucky little business, they have TV adverts!

    • Rob says:

      20 Jan20 January 12:01

      They are a huge business, I’ve met quite a few of the people there. If you knew how they make money off you, you wouldn’t be tipping them I promise ….

        I would love it if you could elaborate on that, however obliquely!

• Greg says:

  Thanks for the heads up Rob, but I really thing this cheapens your otherwise excellent website. Sorry. Please concentrate on your core skills and leave the crap to somebody else.

  • Rob says:

    20 Jan20 January 09:18

    As it stacks with the MR offer, it isn’t actually off topic any longer 🙂

    I fully understand your sentiment and I only do this occasionally. I try to avoid off topic stuff (hence Shopper Points) because it sends mixed messages to the business travel community I spend the rest of my time trying to court.

    Note that I ran an identical post last year when they did this same deal. At the end of the day, you get a deal you may have missed and I get the office rent paid for a week, so everyone wins.

    How does it “cheapen” the web site ? He is trying to save us money

    • Rob says:

      20 Jan20 January 09:25

      See my other response, it is a fair point and I spend a lot of time trying to stop this site sliding too much into MSE territory. This one is good enough to let through though.

      • Kevin says:

        It saved me ten pounds on something I was looking to buy (ironically for travelling). So I think it’s a reasonable post. Thanks.

        • JamesWag says:

          20 Jan20 January 16:18

          Absolutely. The occasional post like this is very well received by myself & I’m sure most of the ‘community’.

    • the real harry1 says:

      20 Jan20 January 19:10

      it cheapens the website BECAUSE we have spent less money, therefore as any economist will tell you, our collective GDP has gone down

      simples 🙂

  • Mr Dee says:

    It was something that I didn’t know about so was helpful, I just have nothing I need to buy from Amazon right now.

    • the real harry1 says:

      20 Jan20 January 19:00

      nor have I, Mr Dee – just thinking that it only costs a couple of £ to return an item? would this work?

      • Mr Dee says:

        21 Jan21 January 11:17

        Yes but we are getting into wasting money territory, the best bet would be to buy something to resell …

• Andy says:

  I am missing out on the MR promo. I was given a £200 gift card, applied it to my account and that has to be used first. No option to use points

  • Rob says:

    20 Jan20 January 09:26

    Not true. I have a £150 gift card balance.

    At checkout, you can elect to not pay with your gift card and use something else. Swap to your MR linked Amex and you can then choose to use MR points.

    • Andy says:

      20 Jan20 January 10:30

      Thanks didn’t notice that as it automatically applies the gift card

      • Genghis says:

        20 Jan20 January 10:40

        And I even managed to pay 2MR points for 1p off and use a gift card to pay the balance and still get the £15 off, though other commentators have reported they didn’t have such luck

• Tom says:

  Just stacked successfully got £25 off. Had an existing Amazon account.

• Rich says:

  20 Jan20 January 12:24

  Thanks. Stacked the two codes. It seemed to accept the £15 code but not the £10 when my order (through no choice of mine) was split into two deliveries, both sold despatched by Amazon. I changed some items and it worked when they were all on one delivery.

• Andrew Clark says:

  Both of these plus I bought a £105 gift card for £100. Yay, free money!
