  1. fair play, that is a great offer, terrible how customers are being treated in regard to this.

  2. They did something similar when Ulster Bank went all @rseways in the summer, think it was a few free drinks if you showed them your UB card.
    Decent

  3. The people in the office here are saying Crackbryd will honour them also? Any truth in this?

  4. Sober Lane in Cork also doing this although it is one voucher 1 lunch regardless of voucher value.

  5. Stags Head are accepting HMV vouchers in return for Lunch. 1 voucher = 1 lunch, Monday – Saturday, 12-5, Jan & Feb

    • According to consumer rights, you can redeem the voucher if the store is still trading. If not, you can lodge a claim with the administrators. The latter doesn’t guarantee full reimbursement of course as the big creditors will be paid off first.

      Only my opinion here but if the stock is sold on to another music/DVD company, it would make good business sense for them to honour the vouchers.

      • I would be surprised to find out the larger creditors are higher up in the cashflow waterfall than the customers.

  6. Such a worthy and noble cause. Its great to see people finally doing something for the poor downtrodden starving masses, the homeless, the countless poverty stricken families… people who lost a coupla bob on the HMV vouchers…and so forth.

    • I agree, I’d feel kind of icky going in and essentially looking for a free meal. I’ve got an income, a roof over my head and a HMV gift card. Would feel like a hypocrite using.

      • It’s that kind of lack of stinginess and lack respect for not spending your own hard-earned money that separates us from continental Europeans.

  7. Sober Lane are doing a similar offer in Cork. They have outstanding pizza and onion rings.

  8. Roganstown Hotel and Country Club are accepting them up to a maximum value of 50 euro as a part payment on a nights stay for the month of January, fair play in fairness

  9. If you have a plastic ‘credit card style@ voucher though, how will they know how much is no it?

  10. are they actually seeing it through though? i apparently won something from them in the summer, never arrived, asked questions, never arrived, asked more questions, never arrived.
