    I think @funkygeorge76 would be the best person to ask about that. πŸ˜‰

    I applied to join Purpl Discounts and worryingly - despite attaching proof of disabilty - I received nothing back, by way of confirmation that I had applied…..

    Did you email them to ask for an update @Wibbles ? I'm sure it's just a technical error.

    I am genuine, you can watch me on Tiktok and if you speak to any of our members they would vouch for the fact that a) I am disabled b) I care about making a difference c) I reply to everyone and always do my best to fix any issues we have - we are a startup so there will be teething issues. I also work 24/7 it is not something anyone can do, getting relationships with brands and working with them to design offers that make a difference takes time and experience. Morrisons is a fine example, I started talking to them in Autumn last year. We are working extremely hard as I want Purpl to be successful so I can launch a foundation to give grants and help people who need extra financial support.

    For me it said on the screen I was verified right away. I suggest emailing them.

    OK I have now successfully applied and received back a confirmation that I am a member

    I am disappointed however - I misread the bumf and assumed that a discount was applied to ALL Morrisons orders - but this is incorrect - it is only a 10% discount on your FIRST on-line order (home delivery or click-n-collect) - not ongoing !

    Since it needs a code number, which is a one off !

    @funkygeorge76

    Hello,

    Could you please confirm / deny whether Purpl Morrisons discount is a one-off or whether it is "ongoing" ?

    The offer expires in a week, so it might end up mute, but I am also curious in case the offer is extended.
    I can answer it doesnt need it to be a first order with Morrisons, I have used them for years and the code worked.

    Hi I've been using the Purpl Morrisons discount for about month now on my weekly online shop, it's worked great for me! It's not just new orders, but you do need a new code from the website each time you order, as each code is only valid till a certain date. They keep putting new codes up to extend the offer indefinitely.

    it’s ongoing for as long as they keep our partnership going, as far as we are concerned it’s all going well and we have plans to work towards in store as well. It is an ongoing discount not just a first time customer. Hope that helps

    Hi,

    Any (working) discount available on Premier Inn stays in accessible rooms ?

    I have seen too many "clickbait" discount codes in eg) Telegraph - which do not work.

    Thanks

    @funkygeorge76OK I'm ready to try Purpl on Morrisons - my wife is out of action for a few weeks and we are having to use home delivery !

    I assume that my original membership has lapsed ?

    @funkygeorge76 Also - your prices for Sky TV - Are identical to those advertised online on Sky.com - so nothing saved there !

    Anything from Premier Inn yet ?

    What we really need is a genuinely discounted Electricity and Gas tariff from somewhere - with prices quoted and fixed in pence per kWh - none of this PRICE CAP nonsense !

    Is FunkyGeorge76 still a member of the Scope Community ?
