Using M&S Giftcard on Outlet

[neonplanet40]

Hi guys, (Happy Xmas!!)

I have a £25 M&S Evoucher and I am trying to use it on their outlet site but I am unable to do so. Anyone ever used one on it before that could help me?

As they use Amazon for checkout, you should see a "promotion code" box on the page where you choose your payment card type.

The code does not work in the promotion box and on the drop down menu for a new card you can only add a credit card. It seems to be a real nightmare to add!

I've emailed their help department but given it's Xmas it may well take a while to get a reply

Maybe vouchers aren't allowed in Outlet ?

[neonplanet40]

It says that they are on the voucher and the T&C's. Or maybe they have changed it but that would mean they should refund me!

Does it say outlet online? There are physical outlet stores :-)
