  • MOVING THREADS FOR BETTER RESPONSES
    Hi, Martin's asked me to post this in these circumstances: I've asked Board Guides to move threads if they'll receive a better response elsewhere (please see this rule) so this post/thread has been moved to another board, where it should get more replies. If you have any questions about this policy please email forumteam@moneysavingexpert.com.
  • Managed to order mine 1 minute before 5pm! Did have to pay for shipping and insurance though as I could only use the one coupon at a time, but still a great deal imho.
  • Ordered mine about 10 mins ago. All went well. Very pleased. Thanks OP.
  • I ordered some for my daughter as spares, son ordered some and I ordered some as sunglasses for in the car. Well pleased- theanks OP!
  • If you go through the account activation/password setup process and your order went through successfully then you should be able to see it in your order history.
  • Thanks for the reminder Had completely forgotten about this
  • first pair isn't in the order history but I was able to order another pair
  • It's over.
    From their Facebook page at 17.51:LensWay.co.uk Thanks for everyone's participation today, we've reached 5000! The promotion has now ended, if you missed out check the "Free Glasses" tab https://www.facebook.com/LenswayUK?sk=app_4949752878 for 25% off glasses until March 13th.
    (Just got mine in. Creeps put price of gorgeous Ј29 pair up to Ј69 for the day! Got some others for the price of P&P).
  • I managed to order 1 pair. got reciept and order confirmation.
    But forgot to go through Topcashback. Oh well still cheap as chicken kebab and naan meal.
  • Finish now. They are all gone. 5000 limit was reached already ....
  • Okay - Gonna be honest now - I WAS tempted to order a second pair since I got mine within first few seconds of 5pm BUT thought it was a fair offer if it was restricted to one per person as then everyone has a chance of getting their one pair each AND I didn't wanna have a pair just sitting in a drawer somewhere..
    By the way if anyone missed out esp the ladies if you like Playboy glasses ( and some of them are really nice ) for approx Ј3 more then this free offer you can get a pair of specks here ;

  • Gutted, I have broke my glasses and need a new pair, I don't have the luxury of a spare pair so am really struggling!
    Hope those who got more than one pair appreciate them!! People can be so selfish of others when it comes to a bargain for themselves (and no I never abuse good offers like this)!!
  • Like I said I was honest about being a bit TEMPTED to order a 2nd pair but I just COULDN'T do it as I felt it would be UNFAIR to others ... Which of course it IS.. And its already SUCH a generous offer giving us ONE pair so was more than happy to get my pair for free ( well , Ј6.75 postage )
    Another thing which is a shame the way it worked out is some people thought their original order DIDN'T go through because of an error message so tried again and again and ended up with multiple orders by mistake which they had to cancel - But this technical glitch still meant that more of the 5,000 pairs were taken up with accidental orders because of the error message
    I myself got an error message so thought my order didn't go through / payment wasn't taken when it WAS but moments later an e-mail confirmation came through & checked on their webpage in my 'recent orders' and it was there...
    Its a pity some missed out because of ACCIDENTAL multiple orders too
    Thanks for clearing up that it WAS one per customer which I PRESUMED it was for this great offer - Didn't even get to read T&C's but its such a good and generous freebie that one per person is MORE then enough as a free pair of glasses it such a bonus and was / am just happy to get one!!!
    So sorry you and others missed out Sahara - I think they should find a way of not allowing multiple orders to go through in the future as even cancelling them means some people still missed out!!
    Its such a pity & I hope you get a pair of glasses you love very soon ... Did you see the Playboy Ј9.95 ones or there is also a cheap glasses thread on here X
  • Funny ( or not so funny actually ) thing is I queried if it was one per person on their Facebook page and they REMOVED MY COMMENT!!!
    So were they embarrassed that so many multiple orders went through or was it actually perfectly ok for some people to purchase multiple freebies.....
    Not happy that I was on their side ie wanted to clear things up and keep things fair for everyone but it seems to have offended them the fact that I was enquiring if it was one per person...
    Simple query I thought , dunno what they've got to hide apart from not wanting loads of outraged people on their Facebook page complaining they didn't get a pair when others ordered more than one!
  • Applied for a pair of varifocals using this Ј50 deal. After discount, then addition of charges, it came to Ј99.20. Still a good price for new varifocal specs. Entered payment details, using Mastercard (for security) but final page stated 'Unable to process transaction' and gave a variety of possible reasons. Shut down and tried again - same result. In case it was anything to do with Mastercard I tried a final time with Visa Debit. Same 'Unable to ......' Gave up and had dinner. Checked emails and found: all three transactions had been processed and I was almost Ј300 down! Got through (eventually) on 0800 line and they were clearly getting a few of these calls as quite unsurprised. Cancelled two orders. Felt happier. Today (Sunday 13th) I note that one payment is going through on Visa and two on Mastercard. Will be calling again tomorrow. So far not a happy experience.
