Dell Home Accessories $20 of Any Item 20.01 or over, Mistake

[quote name='RedvsBlue']Here we go again...[/QUOTE]

Yeah, I agree. I debated as to whether I should even bother posting, but you never know.
 
Have you tried adding multiple 19.95 games to your order? The coupon is reapplying itself over and over for me. Is this happening to anyone else?

I may have to post this in the videogame deals section

Wait, give me a second to try that, then post it in the video game deals section. ;)

Edit: yeah, it works for me too...This is gonna be canceled without hesitation.
 
Yeah, this coupon is extremely strange. Some people have reported that their CC are charged a different amount than the order. I'm not sure if this is worth it.

Hmmmm....That makes me leary of ordering this whole page full of stuff for $25 shipped.

Gonna call my CC number and see what type of charge was made on my first order.
 
ya placed an order on a bunch of $19.99 stuff, so it was all free, except for the $8.xx shipping.

will check my CC in morning though to make sure i didn't get jewed.
 
[quote name='Psykodelik']Very tempting. I'll wait until I hear from others with the CC thing. Thanks for the heads up.[/QUOTE]
Well, I called my card company and I couldn't get this last transaction because it was so recent. It takes a couple of days for transactions to post, so I don't know how some people checked their cards already.
 
ya I checked my debit card, but it just says there is a pending transaction, but doesn't specify an amount.

to the other posters you may want to jump on this though for that 1% chance that your order will get threw, cuz this will likely not last long.
 
I'm sorry, I mispoke. I guess when you order from dell.com, you recieve two emails. Some people have ordered, and the first email showed the discount, but the second email did not and showed full price to be charged.
 
ya if you ordered cancel!!!! just nolticed this:

Take $20 off any E&A purchase of $150 or more!

So the coupon just mistakenly takes off those prices, fuck I need to hurry and go cancel what the hell am I doing typing here!!!!!! shit!!
 
Huh, that's odd - my order is showing the discounted price on both emails. Maybe because I order more than $150 of stuff before the discounts? I'll wait to look at my order status at Dell and my credit card statement tomorrow before cancelling.
 
They are discussing this over at slickdeals.net. Some people are saying that if you order something under 20.01, you do not recieve the discount, it only looks like you will at checkout. But if you order something over 20.01, you do recieve the discount. I'm not sure to be honest, I'd say try it at your own risk. I'm sorry for any problems associated with this.

Yeah, the discount came off the one item I ordered over $20.
 
damn it won't let me cancel my order,

either:
A) they already canceled it from the email earlier, which I doubt as it gave me a computer generated response.

B) the order hasn't even been acknowledged yet. Even though my debit card now has a $95 charge on it.
 
[quote name='ugamer_x']Now it says that I am not a dell customer an I did not make any orders. This is bullshit.[/quote]

ya thats what I've been getting, I just want to cancel my order and end this nightmare!
 
Man, I'm sorry. I hope you all get this worked out. I know that is has seemiungly worked for some people.

I'm waiting to speak to a rep over their chat system. Just use that and go from there.
 
Heh, good thing I looked at this again. I was about to press "OK" to place the order. I'll probably pass up on this. Thanks again.
 
weird, for me I paid by PAYPAL and I received 2 emails within 10 minutes of order.

Grats ugamer. How long did it take and did you "chat" or talk on the phone to do so?

EDIT: By any chance, did you ask if this deal was a mistake or not?

Phone service was closed, so I chatted it up with folks in India. fucking took forever for them to even understand the problem, let alone cancel it. Took me a good hour and 15 minutes. I'm almost tempted to order again knowing which items work, but it'll probably get canceled anyway and I'm not retarded enough to deal with customer service again should the order fuck up like it did the first time.

Hehe. I'm tempted to do it again as well. There was some other stuff I wouldn't mind getting. But I didn't bother because my first order was a "test". Well, if you do decide to order you can always call them tomorrow. But good luck on the waiting times.

They don't know shit from a hole in the ground. First they tried telling me the coupon applied to only one item because I had a copy of Trace Memory in my cart which was the only item over $20 so the coupon applied correctly. Then they tried to convince me that since my order was over $150 it took the coupon off correctly. Only thing was the $150 price included tax and shipping, which means they were wrong again. I can't really blame them though, they're just beginning to grasp the English language and I'm trying to convince them that I ordered items for a different price than what I was charged.
 
Highlight of the log:

Agent (Sup Sandeep R): "Hi Joseph,"
Agent (Sup Sandeep R): "I understand you wanted to cancel the order#: xxxxxxxxx, is that correct?"
Joseph: "yes"
Joseph: "and order xxxxxxxxx"
Joseph: "no one can explain why i am being charged for more than what it said i would be charged when i placed my order"
Agent (Sup Sandeep R): "Thank you!"
Agent (Sup Sandeep R): "Let me try to explain you."
Joseph: "can you just cancel it? no need to explain me"

[quote name='The Successful Dropout']why are there two threads for this? i didn't even know this thread for this existed[/QUOTE]
The OP put the thread here first, then made a new thread in the gaming section so more people could see it.

I was the guinea pig.
