I began to think this offer was going to go this way when I received notification of it from moneysavingexpert.com - just about the UK's biggest consumer related forum - a million people or so in the UK were onto this let alone elsewhere
I'd be interested to know who does manage to get to the front of the queue.
Hope it was all fair and above board - I remember the British Airways concordee controversey 10 years ago
