Last Chance for DNA Offers

    i have just followed the link in the latest newsletter to the UK site for Living DNA and discovered that the offer was no longer showing. It is still showing on the sites for other regions so I decided to phone and enquire.

    The offer is still available in the UK until noon but I had to order on the phone. The person I spoke to said she would raise the issue with IT so it may be available on the website again soon. If not, don't give up - try the phone!

    Pauline, can you let me have your order number (privately) so that I can take this up with Living DNA? Ditto anyone else who ends up ordering by phone?

    The Living DNA UK site is now showing the discount price of £99.

    Will do shortly. I was thinking you might be missing out because of their error.

    It's possible, but I imagine most people put in their orders before the original expiry date.

    I guess your newsletter inspired some unaccustomed spontaneity on my part. :)

    I've now received a DNA kit from Living DNA, but they've only sent me one kit whereas I ordered two. I've checked, and my card has definitely been charged for two kits.

    Is it normal for them to send out kits in separate parcels? I don't have an ID number for the 2nd kit, and they didn't ask me who it was for (I see if you order on the website they ask for this), so I'm wondering if they messed up the order.

    I shall have to contact them, but because of the bank holiday can't do this until Tuesday, so in the meantime was wondering if anyone else has ordered more than one, and how they were posted out.

    I rang Living DNA this morning to enquire after my missing kit, and in case anyone is wondering, I discovered

    a) If you order more than one kit they may come out separately and arrive a couple of days apart, but
    b) there was a mix-up with my order and only one kit was sent out

    The people I spoke to were all helpful and apologetic, and the missing kit is being sent out by a quicker than usual postal service.
