Short and sweet,

Earlier today both my wife and I received the following

Only on those 2 accounts, the others, no text. 

No problem, 30 quid of m&s vouchers is a pretty welcome gift this time of year.....

So off we trot to m&s online (as it said to) find what we're gonna get and then reopen priority on the missus phone to put hers through (I know sometimes it's a time limit so I "saved for later")

Went into "my priority, the gift was still there, clicked on it, then clicked "redeem"

Been doing that for half an hour now on BOTH phones.

So it's not a gift? It's a 1St come offer?


"a gift, on us, for you to lose"
Fixed the sms

Hi there

 

Sorry about that, the voucher codes ran out but we've now added some more. Please find your offer in the "My Priority" section of the app and try again.

 

Thanks

Kim

Pathetic. I will never bother with it. Why set myself up for bitter disappointment every time I lose out..Evil

Yeah but this came through as a "gift from us" not none of this "claim while you can" type offers.

I realise that ..which is why I said pathetic. It just adds to the whole theory that Priority is worse than useless. I would actually question whether the 'Gift to you' ever existed..? Must have been a real joy you and the wife trailing into town with your kids in tow (who knows) and having that disappointment. #wasteoftime.

I find them amusing - every time I get a text or check the priority app I feel so impulsive to travel at least 22 miles (says 16 but doesn't take into account the actual route to get there not by crow) to take advantage of it. Hmmm just checked and several offers are 62.4 miles awaaaaaaaaaaaaayyyyyyy (and I don't like olives either).

Good for you. I don't care. What about others that would have seen it and trailed into town anyway. ...

Beginning to wonder what the penalty is for false advertising....??
