B&M free month voucher

Hi all, was lucky enough to be given 2 free 1 month entertainment passes from B&M, when I go to apply them to my account, a message says, the codes are not valid and I've missed out this time, however the codes say activate before 23.59 on the 31 December 2019. I am on a voucher at the moment but this ends on the 3rd of January 2020. Can anyone help?

No.  They actually expired on 1st December not 31st December as stated on email.

I had the same problem. Tried to activate my free one month B&M NOWTV Entertainment Pass and told it 'had expired' although the email sent by B&M Stores clearly states activation date ends 31st December 2019. I noted there was no Customer Service direct link on NOWTV site and that the 'streamingvouchers' sub-link on the B&M Stores e-mail led just to a web page with an icon in the centre of it and no navigational routes within the site.... So I used an account I have with Resolver, attaching a copy of the e-mail from B&M Stores inviting me to partake of this offer and pointing out the 'activation ends date' of 31st December 2019 thereon... They DID try to fob me off to NOWTV or the 'streamingvouchers' site but as I continued to point out it was a B&M Stores promotion and the 31st December 2019 date was on THEIR company-headed email, they got back to me this afternoon with a NEW activation code with an expiry date of 31st January 2020. Therefore if anyone has any issues with this non-activation, I suggest they follow my path... Merry Christmas!!!

Which company do you put in resolver? Streaming vouchers, now tv or b&w

To take you through the whole process (just in case). Open an account with Resolver - they are really good and once a company sees your message fed through them, they seem to get 'on the case' a lot quicker. Your consumer complaint is with B&M. It is THEIR promotion and if your e-mail with the activation code on was like mine it was on B&M Stores 'headed paper', therefore although they might tell you to go to NOWTV or streaming vouchers there is no need as it was B&M who put the expiry date of 31st December 2019 and nobody else, therefore it is B&M who need to resolve. They did try to fob me off at first (probably "too difficult" to get their head around?), but I continued to point out the expiry date was on THEIR headed e-mail, I was issued with another Pass voucher code the following day. You 'should' get a positive result. If not, come back to me

Giving that a try - thanks

My pleasure. Perhaps it was a typo error on their part - but it was an error nonetheless if it was. A bit of a shame for B&M as it was a generous promotion to give for free (whatever any 'ulterior' motive) which has gone a bit sour on them. In my case they made a further mistake when issuing the new Pass - which I'm not going to complain about - They said "Enjoy your one month free Entertainment Pass", but when I entered the code it was for one month's free Movies! Oopsy!!!! Don't expect that though... but you never know, do you?

Great that you got a result through NOWTV, although I still believe it was B&M Stores error to put right which is probably why got a 'one time only' goodwill gesture from NOWTV - still, a result is a result nonetheless - Enjoy!
