    I also got my email for the £6 bonus. Does anyone know if that can be done more than once?

    How long until £6 comes in? I purchased £30 gift card this morning. Also topped up by £25 and got the £5 straight away. Tried to top up again but didn’t get extra £5 :(

    The £6 doesn't 'come in' as such. When you go to buy something, the discount will appear and can be used. Why Amazon did the £6 one differently from the £5 is anyone's guess...

    Are you sure? It says you will get an email within 48 hours?

    Just tried it there....£6 added on for p and p but then subtracted.
    So I guess I need to wait on my email.
    Does anyone know if there are any promo codes for using app?
    Thanks

    Just to update....I contacted amazon to ask them when do I get the £6. They actually gave me £8!! As a goodwill gesture as I have been waiting for the £6! :):)

    All the email says is that the next time you make an order, £6 will be discounted from it. I did this recently and exactly this happened.

    Don’t think I will get that too! Amazing if I did!

    It is. Click the link in this boards post to check eligibility:

    https://www.boards.ie/vbulletin/showpost.php?p=104908264&postcount=1

    If eligible, purchase a £30 gift card. Email the gift card to yourself.

    Within 48 hours you should receive an email from amazon to confirm the offer.

    Its a promo code for £6 with an expiry 14/01/18, whereas the £5 topup goes into your account. The £6 discount is applied to your first order after confirmation.

    Link to the post not working for me, getting a 404 error and Not Found, The page you requested does not exist on the server.
    Could someone post the amazon link that's in that post please?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 24,644 ✭✭✭✭punisher5112


    I tried for the £6 and says don't qualify.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,512 ✭✭✭Wheety


    Offer not showing for me so I'm not sure if it is over or because I already used it.

    Go to Amazon and click on Today's Deals, it might show at the top of the page. It did for me before I used it.

    Thanks OP, just had the £5 on the £25 Top Up applied pretty much straight away. Used Revolut for the best exchange rate!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,363 ✭✭✭leck


    Would you be eligible for this promo too:

    https://www.boards.ie/vbulletin/showpost.php?p=104908264&postcount=1

    Buy £30 giftcard, get £6. Use your account funds.

    If so send the gift card by email to yourself.

    I was eligible for the two offers but I'm relatively new to Amazon.
    I got the one in the OP (Buy £25 giftcard, get £5) and appeared to be eligible for this one too. I got a £30 giftcard on 7 Nov but unlike the other one, the reward didn't automatically appear in my account and I didn't get an email confirmation. But if I put something in my basket, I see this:
    Promotion Applied: -£6.00
    So I suppose that's the reward on the £30 giftcard. Does it have an expiration date?

    It doesn't appear in your account as credit. £6 discount off your next purchase. The expiry date on mine is in January. Yours would be the same.

    When I bought the £30 gift card I rang amazon and asked them how long for £6 to be added as wanted to buy something they say. They got back to me and said they added on £8 as a goodwill gesture. Then the next day I got the general email everyone is getting saying they have added £6 to account. So in total for the £30 gift card I got £44 :)

    I previously did the £25 top up and got the extra £5 so £30 :)

    I never qualify for the giftcard offers. And I do buy giftcards occasionally.

    Email them and say that its what I did as I have bought quite a lot off them.
