Just before Courts went into receivership a few years back, i had put down a £100 deposit on a furniture delivery. Once I found out that all outstanding orders had been cancelled i returned to the store to be told that my deposit was null and void and I would have to contact the administrators to try and return my money. In a fit of rage I grabbed a small coffee table on the way out which was for sale at the convienient price of £100. The store manager never gave chase and more surprisingly I never had a police visit. Although I was stuck with a coffee table I didnt need and later sold for £30. Still, to me it was the priciple of the matter.

I know the manageress of a local branch, I'll ask her about honouring vouchers to see if the policies are consistent and let you know.

I understand how you feel. The new venture will have bought the stock for next to nothing and the business at a snip so the only party losing is you the customer.depending on ure criminal record then do it! If u don't have a criminal record then go get your stuff and your satisfaction !

There was an item about this on this mornings BBC Breakfast.  Apparently the administrators are not accepting vouchers.  It's one of those things where sometimes they do, and sometimes they don't.  Bit of a shitter for you in this case.

But is it theft? I took the coffee table out of Courts because in my mind they had £100 of my money and failed to supply goods. Worse still they did so knowing that they were going into administration/receivership.

I would be as pissed off as the next man but losing £40 of vouchers would be a lot cheaper than the fine and embarrassment of Leefer being charged with shoplifting ladies clothes  Wink I know Leefer will do the right thing.  No

If the person that bought the vouchers in the first place used a credit card you may be able to get the money back through them
