Aerodrums promotion on drumhead magazine

Post by Drumfill » Fri Jun 19, 2015 8:52 am

Hello there.

Today I have stumbled across a 10% offer from 'drumhead magazine' if you buy from Amazon and enter the promotion code 'DRUMHEAD'.

I have tried this on both Amazon.com and Amazon.Co.uk but none of them seem to accept the code

I've tried different combinations of the code just incase with no result.

Do you know of any other code this could be?

Here is the link with the offer

Hello, sorry for the late reply and for this issue.

We are looking into what is going on with Amazon, the Drumhead magazine promo code is only setup on Amazon.com (not Amazon.co.uk, .fr or .es).
I will update the thread when we find out.
(I presume you tried to write the code using all caps).

I have tested the code and it seemed to work doing it this way:

On the "Select a Payment Method" screen I clicked "Enter a gift card or promotional code" under the "Gift Cards & Promotional Codes" headline.

After entering "DRUMHEAD", when I clicked apply, a checkbox appeared (ticked) saying "Use your $19.90 promotional balance" under the "Your available balance" headline.

Could you describe how it behaves for you?

I just get this when I enter the promotion code.

I am on AMAZON.com and the shipping is confirmed as 'global shipping'

But maybe because I want them delivered to the UK this code won't work.

I had also selected global shipping when it worked for me.
Is there something else in your cart? If so would you mind trying with just Aerodrums in your cart?

I forgot to ask you, are you claiming another promo code or voucher at the same time?
Our promo is set to exclusive and this could mean no other Amazon codes or vouchers can be used at the same time, even if not issued by us.

NOPE, my basket is completely empty. I've just tried it with my partners account and have the exact same error message with the promotion code.

The only thing I can think of is that although we are on Amazon.com and selecting the global shipping, it is somehow realising that the merchandise will be dispatched from UK therefore the code is invalid.

Is there no way to make this code work for UK CITIZENS TOO?

Is this happening to anyone else out there?

I'll get back to you if insoluble figure anything out

Please accept my apologies, it's me being a complete clutz, it did place the 10% discount on already DOH!

Sadly, even with the discount, due to import taxes the total comes to £151 which is over £20 more expensive that if I order from the UK AMAZON, so the code is useless to anybody except the U.S.

I will await for a UK PROMOTION INTIL I BUY I THINK.

Many thanks for your help. And once again, I'm so sorry for my stupidity

Ah, sorry, we shouldn't have assumed Drumhead mag readers were all in the US.
The Drumhead promo code will be valid on Amazon.co.uk from 2pm UK time this afternoon until the 30th of June at midnight.
It will also be valid on Amazon.fr and Amazon.es from 3pm Paris time until the 30th of June at midnight.
