Do you have any proof of this £200 credit offer?

It could have been sales patter if not.

Hey mburnip12,

Welcome to the community and thanks for taking the time to post here on the forums.
I’m sorry to hear that you haven't been given the credit that was promised when you signed up, as @japitts stated, do you have any proof of the offer, if do please let me know and we can add this to your account but would need to send a private message to you to confirm your account details, if you can provide the proof that you have been offered that as part of your deal. 

Kind Regards,

Steven_L

When I signed up the lad on the phone said I wouldn't have to pay anything for 8 months but now I'm getting billed has anyone else been promised a discount on there bill and didn't get it ?

I was promised a £100 credit mate.    No one cares about me being mis sold lied to and conned.    There was a £200 bill credit not so long ago from new customers so fingers crossed for you pal. 

As for the liers it's disgusting nothing's ever done about this there's hundreds of people on here have been conned 

Hi mburnip12, thanks for the message and welcome back to the forums. 

I will send you a private message so that this can be looked into. 

Please look out for the purple envelope. 

Kind regards, Chris.

They lie and then the other staff sweep it under the carpet.  

Good luck mate.  I was asked if I had it in writing and I was lied to one the phone lol.  They must have a very lumpy carpet and there completely complicit in this mis-selling / fraud.    I'm 100% sure it's illegal what they do
