I did the same a few months back. The card number was hidden in one of the order confirmation emails I got. They sent an actual physical card about a month later.
Thanks, I found the code lurking in an email. It won't let me link it to my account though. Maybe it's because the actual order for the reward car is still cancel-able?
It's hardly 'Instant'
Edit: "Your order has been cancelled. This may be due to card authorisation" Forget it.
Was able to get RE5 for £29.25, SF4 for £29.35 and 2100 MS Points for £9.63 (after using £2.50 of points)!!
I thought it might to the most expensive item they take the £5 from, but that wouldn't make sense with the MS Points. I tried twice to get £5 off SF4 but each time it would only take the £5 from RE5 (no matter which one i added to the basket first)
Do you have to actually place the order, and then cancel one ? I tried adding 2 items to basket, entering the code, then removing one item. When you move to the next screen the amount it tells you you will be changed for is the full price of the game, so presume you have to actually put the order in ... ?
ooo good stuff, yeah i wanted to get microsoft points on the cheap, £12.13 thats nice might order it again, same kinda thing, i added MS points then addded RE5 then cancelled RE5
There's a couple of codes around for ?5 off ?50 at Game. LEALTA09 or 3368YAW
Not that amazing, but I think you might be able to pre-order Modern Warfare 2 and another game that comes out next year to get your order over ?50, and then cancel the other game, getting you MW2 for under ?40.
9% Quidco as well, to bring the price down further.
**I don't know if the above works, I'm just thinking out loud really**
Yep thanks - used it to grab some money off the Special Edition of Batman.
The code, Quidco and reward points will go some way to softening the blow on the old wallet.
Don't think they will honour the Quidco side of things. They haven't for me when I have used previous miney-off codes.
I have just used the code again along with a £2.50 reward voucher to get 2100 points for £9.49. Once it's shipped I will be cancelling my Bioshock 2 pre-order
