When will I get the promised 8GB USB Stick

So a week or so after receiving my PC, I received an e-mail from PCS asking me to fill in a Trust Pilot review and then click a link to get an 8GB USB Stick. I done so, filling in the review on the 8th of september (http://www.trustpilot.co.uk/review/www.pcspecialist.co.uk/522c8bc70000640002584e0b), and I was led to believe that the 8GB stick would be sent out shortly after the review was published. I have still to receive the stick though so was wondering when I would get it?

I got mine within a week I think, just drop an email to enquiries.

Okay. I will give it til Wednesday and then e-mail enquiries, or contact Live Support, or perhaps both to be on the safe side. Thanks for the advice Keynes

There was a 3 week gap on dispatch of the pen drives due to stock, a load were sent Monday and more Wednesday, so hopefully you won't be waiting too much longer.

I WANT ONE!
I don't even own a USB stick!

I already wrote a review on this forum too so would be easy to get it to that website

Please can someone advise if this offer is open to anyone or a select few?

Thanks

As far as I know random selection, you need to get an email for it.

Not everyone gets the chance to do it, I don't know what percentage of customers do get the chance, I didn't on my first two PC's I bought many years ago, but the most recent one I did.

I just assumed it was for anyone who bought/received a PC from them within a certain time frame. It was a pleasant surprise and I was more than happy to write a review (actually, I would have written one anyway, but I was just planning to have a little more time with the PC before I got round to it)

I did have a fairly long wait, I wrote the review at the start of the month and received the stick last week. Didn't really bother me though as it was free!

Not everyone gets the chance to get one, it'll be done randomly.

I bought a desktop and a laptop. Nothing.

I bought a £60 (i think) HDD. FREE STUFFZ!

:D

(I'd call it RNG, but then I'd be lying, because there is clearly a 10 strong team at PCS that has the sole job of assigning the FREE STUFFZ both maliciously and unfairly :D )

I had the offer of an 8GB stick. It's a nice gesture from PCS but does involve a lot of work.
I had some video and pictures, did the 3DMark and Passmark tests and compared video rendering with the old desktop. I wrote about a page but that is as far as it got, I had more pressing things to get on with. If I am that desperate for an 8GB stick then I shall go out and buy one, it's a lot less hassle.
Unless of course all you are going to say is "It's brilliant - now gimme my stick".

Sounds like you're taking the review far too seriously, a trust pilot review is more to do with the level of service received from the supplier, i.e. ordering process, waiting times, delivery, does the product work, any aftersales help? I don't really think they're too bothered about a full blown review including benchmarks, etc as that quite frankly is more down to specific hardware rather than PC Specialist on a whole.
