Has anyone got the Harvey Nichols offer on an online order? I don't have time to go to the store before the end of year and have one more Amex card to use.

I had a few of the shop small £5 credit successfully when I did some phone orders, so it could in theory work. Not tried it online though

You can also buy gift vouchers online, so no real loss at risk, assuming you would use it at some point.

I posted about it up-thread, but it seems very few are taking part. Basically, sync your XBox Live account to your Amex card
First deal is £10 free - yes, no purchase necessary - just sync and you get the £10.
Others are:

When does the Carphone Warehouse deal run out? Is it linked to reaching a certain target in the Halo game? I might just buy an Xbox if I can buy multiple gift vouchers with different accounts and therefore buy a phone or tablet half price at CPW. Multiple £10 would cover the cost of the Xbox and the rest would be a bonus.

Just to be clear, the Dixons Travel offer is separate from the Currys PC World one and doesn't require Halo 4, just syncing with the Xbox Live a/c and loading the offer. I think all the Xbox offers end 31/12/12.

Sorry but I doubt it - the system is very much based around entering a code from the website on the Xbox, the sync email comes through within seconds of doing so - if you don't have access to an Xbox then I don't think it's possible.
