I take it that voucher can only be used on them?

I get a "Sorry, you are not eligible for this voucher". Are there particular T&Cs that I'm not aware of?

Voucher has ended I think.

Edit: Maybe not, still appears in incognito.

Ordered 2 hard drives from Amazon DE and arrived during the week a day later than expected. Just got a mail (without me asking as it wasn't a big deal to me) saying they're refunding me the 9.99 shipping.

There's a lot of companies could learn from that level of service.

Wow. And only a day late too. That's great.

I drink decaf tea from Lidl must double check the price but think its much much cheaper than that. I have had some decaf tea from Lidl that seemed very weak but its been fine this year so far.

I drink decaf from Lidl too but I haven't been able to get it in my local store for months last price I remember was €1.89 for 80. Must be something to do with Brexit because Tesco don't have it either, I'll try these Tetley ones, seems a decent price.

You can blame me, whenever it is in stock I buy at least 4 packs of it

Edit> Not a cheap as I thought? So €10.40 v £10.82 so only slightly cheaper in Lidl

Yep, especially as the original day was supposed to be Sunday. Great service.

Amazon could learn a lot of things in regards to workers rights and pay to their contractors

There's a lot of companies that could go to the wall from those kind of terms too.

But they'd also benefit from good publicity and more customers.

I have one of these - which I use with devices that doesn't have a network port, like my laptop (Dell XPS) when I need solid, fast data transfer.

Perhaps this could also work with streaming devices like Firestick etc if it has a USB port but no network port?

It's another gadget for the travel bag (other Bargain alert thread items include a mini router £13.76 at the time). I like to have a variety of ways of connecting up devices, Ethernet to USB will come in handy and no doubt being able to connect a couple of extra USB devices will be useful at some stage.

Same for me this morning, it said I wasn't eligible for it but when I went back in just now it applied for me.

Hi all, just wondering if anyone knows how to apply the 30% off voucher code for the laptop stand over in the no chat thread. Cheers.

The €22 VAT exemption is going away on the 1st July.

AFAIK you go to checkout and enter it in the code box there.

I tried and the code didn't work for me.

I use it with my laptop to get a direct ethernet connection to my router - so at quiet times I can get 1GB fibre speeds.

What's really useful about this is that it has openVPN built in so you can use it ass a VPN for a smart TV as an example to get US Netflix or the BBC player.

They are great and I love if/when they do that. But it rankles a wee bit when you see the way they treat their staff, especially delivery and warehouse staff. They could dial down the customer service a bit and look after the people they employ

Won't work with the Firestick on its own, you'd need an additional OTG-type cable capable of powering this and the Firestick.
