I just received one and used it for £5 off Planet Earth. The codes are unique.

I can't even remember the last time I had a discount code for any amazon site, so this was a very pleasant surprise.

I just ordered Almost Famous BD from Amazon UK last week. Sure would be nice to get that coupon.

I've never ordered a BD from amazon.co.uk before, but I had a couple in my cart to keep an eye on the prices.

The wording of the e-mail with the coupon was:

"As you've previously shown interest in Blu-ray, here's a gift certificate that gives you £5 off any Blu-ray disc if purchased between 00:00 GMT on Monday 26th October and 23:59 GMT on Sunday 1st November. "

So, maybe it's based on them being in my cart?

I want mine too! The annoying thing is that they just sent me an e-mail a few days ago promoting a bunch of Blu-ray titles... but no code! Argh.

I've ordered two dozen Blu-rays from Amazon UK in the last four months, and received no email.

I just sent them an e-mail asking to be included in this offer. I am shameless. Will let you know what happens.

I've ordered quite a few as well, and no e-mail here either.

How's this for a response:

I can understand your concerns regarding the 5.00 GBP gift certificate promotion. On checking, I can see that this gift certificate will be sent only to the eligible customers.
Well, thanks for clearing that up.

You should reply back with "What determines an eligible customer, one who has previously shown interest in Blu-ray as your email stated? Then I should qualify!"

"Eligible customers" are shoppers who seldom buy anything without some kind of coupons

I did, and they gave me £5 in store credit.

Not true. I frequently buy from amazon.co.uk and I don't think that I've ever had a coupon for that site. However, I had never previously ordered a BD from them.

Here's the email I just got:

£20 Amazon.co.uk Gift Certificate when you sign up for LOVEFiLM‏

Too bad only UK customers can actually use LoveFilm, which is like Netflix. Damn.

If any of you guys happen to get a code and don't have anything to use it on I'd be more than happy to take it off your hands.

They haven't sent me one.

I guess I buy too much from them to get the code.

Have either of you ordered a BD from amazon.co.uk before? Also, did you have any sitting in your cart?
