My delivery drivers are always lovely and observe distancing, I think they are the only human beings still working there. The rest, including customer services, seem to be bots.

I had problems getting on the website earlier to update my order for tomorrow

I went on app to update and got offered a free bar of Tony's chocolate worth £3.49. Check out the app if you’ve got an order due

I got offered free Kitkats the other day, but I’d sooner have Tony’s chocolate.

Ontheboardwalk · 15/10/2020 22:51

I love a kitkat but from what you say I’m thinking a Tony's chocolate must be good. At £3.49 a bar I’m hoping so

Thank you thank you - edited order and added! Smile

I found an old Xmas receipt today and tried to amend my Christmas order to be close to it. I've ended up putting in a separate Xmas Waitrose order

Thank you for the tip about Tony's chocolate. I was offered M&S party food in flash sale tonight.

My drivers have always been lovely, as were customer services if I PM'd them on Facebook or Twitter. Was it just all the Hatfield call centre staff that are facing redundancy or relocation miles away?

Great tip about the Tony's chocolate. I'm not even due a delivery for 2 weeks but went in to edit and got offered a free bar on checkout. Tony's chocoloney is lovely!

StanfordPines · 16/10/2020 19:53

Yay. Placed an order today and got the offer of a free Tony’s. I get it any way so I know it’s good.

OhYouBadBadKitten · 16/10/2020 20:01

thanks for the Tonys tip. I've got it added to my basket. Yum!

GiantKitten · 16/10/2020 20:07

There is an email about the Tony’s choc Smile

I’m sulking now. I haven’t had that email. Boo!

XiCi · 16/10/2020 20:20

I've edited my next 4 weeks orders and got free chocoloney on every order. Its like the toblerones all over again Smile

BentBastard · 16/10/2020 20:47

Yeah, multiple Tibet's here too 🤣

*Tony's

JennyWreny · 16/10/2020 21:11

@AdaColeman I didn't get the email but the free choc was there at checkout. Just need to edit your order and then check out again (hopefully)

Ontheboardwalk · 16/10/2020 21:16

Glad my tip helped people get free chocolate before it runs out

I got my e-mail for the offer 2 hours after it had been delivered and I’d sampled —most— some of the chocolate. Don’t be waiting for the mail

AdaColeman · 16/10/2020 21:56

@JennyWreny thanks for the heads up! I’d updated an order earlier today with no sign of chocolate, but just gone back to add another item now and, hey presto, chocolate!
I’ve been meaning to try that brand too, as it’s often praised on here!

Madcats · 16/10/2020 21:59

I don't know Tony, or his chocolate, but I hope he has enough bars for us!

MayFayre · 16/10/2020 22:37

Thank you for the chocolate tip. Just edited an order and added it.

ByebyeOcado · 16/10/2020 23:47

I got my my bar of Tonys for my shop on the 27th. And that is the only slot available to me, and I’m using it for the elderly lady next door. AIBU to keep the chocolate?!!! (To be fair, I pay for the smart pass! And let her have the monthly slot we are given) Luckily I have got a Waitrose slot for us next week, and for the 2 after that. See Ocado? Treat your customers badly and that’s £150 a week going to your competitors.

lexloofah · 17/10/2020 15:07

@ByebyeOcado I don't think you are BU to keep it

I got one too but as I think it is awful (like gnawing on a block of wax) the DCs can have it

BuggerOffAndGoodDayToYou · 17/10/2020 17:55

I just amended my order for next week and I was offered a choice of freebies including BEER - I chose the beer over the chocolate 😊

goldpendant · 17/10/2020 18:40

I'm stashing my Tony's choc for DC's stockings, they are very retro/wonka. Kids will love!

Quarantino · 17/10/2020 19:42

Never got a toblerone but was pleasantly surprised when i edited this week's shop that'd been booked for two weeks, to find the free Tonys at checkout! Have booked another slot for 2 weeks' time and there was a different selection of Tony choc to choose from - hoping I get bars with both deliveries!
