Hi,
Has the free postage offer ended for the avforums?
Is the free postage still available to Hexus subscribers?
If so can my account be altered so i can take advantage of the free postage?
Cheers.

RE: the original question - has the free shipping for avforums finished 'cos I ordered a load of stuff yesterday (£380-ish) and was surprised (and a tiny bit annoyed, given I much I was spending) when I had to pay postage, so just wondered.
Drummerboy,
The avforums carriage offer has now finished but you can associate your account with your hexus account in order to activate the free carriage again.
Best Regards,
Yep, have done that now thanks. Should have looked on here yesterday shouldn't I?
Cheers,
Pete B.
Thanks Lee for sorting out my account/carriage link, much appreciated. :bowdown:
Methos.
Whats Avforums ?
So Scan has two forums ?
:):rockon2:
:wallbash::surprised:

what no luck, what does the scan2hexus page say when you enter your userid email and hexus forum name?
ty for responing moogle but i got it sorted now. I just went through it again but didnt tick the doc box and it worked!
that gets a yay from me
Yay

/ignore me, i missed page 2
Free postage, great idea.
You've won my custom at least :)
Fallen at the first fence with this - can't get my hexus id. Haven't got private messaging enabled. Can you help me out please?
And some more useful guides can be found in my sig... ;)
Thanks for the info Moogle!

There is a sticky with a step by step guide already dude ... :)

There's a sticky with the information.... plus see below...
I know there's a sticky but people still can't follow it.

Most users read the first bit which is the PM method. The first way only works for users with PM enabled whereas Saracen's method works for all. Most likely the users aren't reading that bit too. Which is why you get this even after it's been updated.
Sorry guys but the guide is very clear to follow
It's alright I'm just suggesting not moaning ;)
I don't mind helping them find their user id's :P
You know the confirmation email that you get when you sign up... why not get the system to automatically include the user id in the email? I know this needs to be done on Hexus' end... but maybe its worth suggesting to Hexus admin :)
you got me thinking there sim. I'm gonna go try something :)
Ta da Scan2Hexus UserID Finder
Tis simple.
Thank SiM for his little beta testing :)
I don't know what chars to regex for the forum names so I've left it out. But if you're trying to break the script then you obviously don't need your userid.
Will only work till hexus changes the forum again.
Let me know of any errors though.
PS - It's basic I know so don't moan to me about it please.
ta :)
after much fiddling and refreshing I can finally reply.
also valid

Not that it matters though
And another line added to the end of my sig :D
Brilliant stuff moogle. Not that people are going to stop posting about how they can't get their Hexus User ID numbers, but... Should be added to sticky really, or both stickies.
Many thanks, moogle. Excellent idea for finding User ID quickly and easily. :)

I already suggested that to the hexus mods on the 19/6/08...your just too slow SiM.:heckle:.
end of reply said..
so wait and see.. impression i got was its going to be a lot easier to find userid in the next forum upgrade.. might possibly be in 'User CP' section..Quote:
So thanks ... but don't be too surprised ifit takes while for anything to happen.
Hi
I put my username in the Scan2Hexus UserID Finder in post #38 above and get "Your Hexus User ID for &roo is id link, please notify the administrator". :confused:
&roo
It broke when the forums changed to non-seo...
Look here: http://forums.hexus.net/scan-care-he...r-user-id.html
edit: actually i think it works now, forums have changed back
erm... my money is on the & sign...
fixed now.
Signed up (at last :P )
Thanks Scan people :)
&roo - If you can PM me your real name, postcode and email address - I'll see what we can do for you.
awesome deal guys, just ordered £55 worth of stuff from scan today purely because of this and will also be getting my 4870 from you guys.
Hi,
Just wondering do you need to have any minimum post on the hexus.net website to get the free delivery offer.
Sorry forgot to mention I called Scan Sales and they said i need to have 20 min. post to qualify for the scan free shipping offer. I have been trying to look for this is the terms and Conditions but no luck. Also have been trying to get associate my account but getting the error "Your HEXUS account was not found - please try again.".... :help::help::help:
khalilm + all
Apologies but you have been mis-advised - Initially HEXUS/SCAN requested a minimum post count before you could be eligible for this offer, however a few weeks ago this was scrapped and I can confirm there is no post limit.
If you can post your Real Name, Post Code and the E-mail address used to sign up to HEXUS I will attempt to associate your account with the free carriage offer.
Best Regards
First Many Thanks for the super quick reply and details are as follows:
*edited*
khalilm
Your account has now been associated :)
As an update to all: The link for new HEXUS signups has been fixed and amended in the following sticky http://forums.hexus.net/scan-care-he...tup-guide.html
Please let me know if there are any further issues.
Best Regards
Thank you
Hi
I'm still getting "Your HEXUS account was not found - please try again.". I passed all my details via PM to DavidM yesterday, he was going to try to associate my account. I suspect that the "&" character is the problem. As a fall-back, I've created a new Hexus account with a 'normal' username yesterday and will use this instead if it's not possible to sort it out.

&roo
Please PM me with your Real Name, Post Code and the E-mail address used to sign up to HEXUS I will attempt to associate your account with the free carriage offer.
I've already got this sorted now - sorry ... forgot to update you &roo
Just login on our site as normal.
Glad it worked for you :) I went to order the other day and they stopped free delivery (on another forum) well you can guess why I joined this forum cant you:mrgreen:
This looks like a great deal. Thank you very much. Have to keep an eye on this forum more often now.
well i've just spent another £350 with scan and just about to spend another £700-800. purely because of free shipping.
Having siad that I am starting to like them on their own merits :)
It makes a massive difference getting FREE delivery and is a bloody good reason to not even bother to check out ebuyer. Plus i have found that Scan's CS is far better than Ebuyer.
I did sign up to this forum last week and got free shipping from scan for some ram i orderd, now today im trying to order more items and i cant get free shipping, i am signed in both here and on scan site, any ideas?
The rules have changed... you need 20 non-spam posts for free shipping
That was posted before the rule was changed back to 20 posts...
Look in the sticky http://forums.hexus.net/scan-care-he...0-07-08-a.html
.. and regular contribution to the forum.
cheers dudes
how long does the free delivery last
looks like a great deal
forever if you keep activly non spam posting....
or until SCAN withdraw the offer..... :(
So user name and passwords don't need to match?
cool thanks
Yes! Thank you so much
How can I associate my account with AV forums and Hexus?
I am having trouble signing up with free carriage at SCAN. It said my user ID cannot be found? I had followed every single bit? ANy idea?
dave4jc
If you already registered to AV Forums then you can't now swap to HEXUS.
Is this offer still on ?
Really hope so, I really want to buy a PSU, and with free delivery Scan makes it the cheapest @ £62.
Hmm, it just says "Your HEXUS account is not found - please check your details and try again." when I try to register, d'oh!
(edit) I do, fwiw, have an AVForums account with the same username as this

You cannot change free carriage association from AV Forums to HEXUS.
Thanks Chris P, I've just had to register as a new user though, I wasn't sure if I was a member but having tried to login, and also the 'Forgot password' feature I wasn't in the system.
Is there anyway to claim it despite having an AVForums account with the same name? I'm looking through this forum and the support is fantastic, so I'm very keen to switch from Ebuyer as my number one go to place for browsing and buying parts, but the fairly costly P&P could be off-putting.
Cheers
Bump, please? :( £7.99 is quite a lot of P&P for a power supply.
Thanks

We understand the AV Forum's free carriage threshold has increased, however you cannot change free carriage association from AV Forums to HEXUS.
Best Regards
Thanks Chris, I don't believe I've ever had an account at Scan though, which is why I signed up yesterday (I tried my details on the 'Lost password' just in case I had one but forgot, but nope) or do you simply mean that since I've had my AVForums account longer than my Hexus one?
If you currently don't have a free carriage account, you'll still need to meet the requirements on Hexus to sign up for one - which is explained here:

Oh many thanks, I never noticed the '20 constructive posts' thing so maybe that right there is my issue.
I shall try and become more active on here because frankly "A Customer is not simply an invoice but a welcome addition to the Scan family" is something I'd like to be a part of!
Just got a very quick response from Scan! Apparently once I hit the 20 posts threshold I should be okay, which is fantastic. Genuinely it'll sound like I'm sucking up, but having read your signature, and seeing the recent award you got for best service, not to mention the great prices, I'm pretty certain you'll now be my 'go-to' place over Ebuyer, no doubt.
