I'm trying to buy 2no Enduro LED mtb helmets with the free front light. The problem is only one light is added to the basket.
I tried online chat. That looks pretty but nobody answered on both attempts.
Does anyone on this forum work for them who could help as I need to get them ordered?

Just increase the quantity of the light at checkout, works for me.

I added two helmets and got two lights - text says 'one per customer' though so not sure what would happen if I completed the order...

While we're summoning Planet X customer services via the power of rhyme:

There once was a fella called Bez
Who wanted Brant's email addrezz
Cos when a fifty quid order's returned
A 3p refund is frankly a burn
So he'd like to discuss this hot mezz

😉

I'd have to ask LiveChat, so you might as well.

I do wonder how long it will be before PX put this link as their customer service contact page. Would work as a ‘what offers we are running’ page too...

To be fair to PlanetX it does clearly state, "1 per customer". You might need to place 2 separate orders to get 2 free lights.

I didn't get a free light with my helmet. The customer support lady on the online chat was very helpful though and promised me she'd get one sent out to me. Fingers crossed!

this is what I saw before ordering
The one per customer is only mentioned at checkout though.
I'm in Austria so would have to pay postage twice.

For anyone wondering about my 3p grumble, it was because there was an earlier refund (the email for which I'd missed) that was 3p short. Doh! All good, and Planet X are back on my Approved Suppliers list 😉

WAIT—IS IT TOO LATE TO CALL OFF THE DEATH CULT?

It'll be fine, they only complete on mid summers' day when it's also a blue moon.

Phew! Good timing. I just removed the rope and got off the stool to check this thread.

Is that a euphemism for "finished my dump"?

All I would like is to get a resolution to a simple question. I have tried the official way (Live Chat- nothing).
I come on here as I know it sometimes helps. It's a shame as I really want to buy things (over £100 worth of stuff) and have the order ready to go.

But only if they come with free stuff?

Send a PM to Brant.

I did once link here from a newsletter about feedback but I don't think anyone saw it.

It was the clickbait that got me looking.

Alternative opinion alert!!

A friend of mine ordered a helmet and light. Arrived two days later no problem.

I ordered one - changed my mind overnight (dont really need another helmet or a light!) - live chat answered in about 2 minutes (on a Monday morning) and cancelled it no problems with the refund showing the next day.

They may not be perfect but PX do get it right more often than not.

If we're now done with the questions about getting loads of free lights, can I hijack the thread (again) to ask whether anyone's already got one of those and if so what runtimes they're getting? 🙂

Sorry mate Death Cult means Death Cult, you've made your decision and you can't reverse on the basis of information that's subsequently become available.

Well, on the bright side I guess I won’t be needing too much from the run time.

3p grumble

Can't see it onsite but pleased if they've branched out into pr0n these days. Mighty cheap - is it "used" ?
