That's good to know, thanks 🤘

I did have a look at reviews, and it seemed pretty favourable.

Presuming it was an lbs that got taken over/absorbed/saved by Trek?

Think the same thing happened to Royles if anyone remembers them.

Impressed so far, the item is with DPD, and is due for delivery tomorrow, as I'll be out I have requested it be delivered to a nearby collection point.

I felt I had to post about the TCB situation. Those of you who use it will know that sometimes it takes a day or more for items to show up as tracked, and then it often takes 4-12 weeks to change to Confirmed, and then finally to Payable.

I placed the order on Saturday late afternoon, so that is Nov 31st.

As I mentioned I used a voucher, so if the T's and C's were adhered to it should have been rejected.

It tracked immediately, and at the full value, a lot of retailers state a % figure, but it ends up being off the amount less VAT - this is clearly off the total basket price.

At some point yesterday (Sunday 1st) it went straight through Confirmed, and is already at Payable - never seen a retailers cashback amount go to Payable within a day, and on a weekend.

I don't keep a super close eye on it, but I'd wager the quickest time previously is something like 4 weeks, but it can often be 4-6 months until it becomes payable.

Anyway, I digress, I'll confirm when it arrives, and also the Lordgun order is on it's way too, hopeful that will arrive midweek, but again will update once it does.
