As for myself, I took a look and decided "no, thank you". I rather suspect that the merchant then decided not to pay out to those declining the offer. While there's an old maxim about there being no such thing as a free lunch, my recollection is that the merchant's advertising did offer just that, ie. a free lunch. Having said that, if I now pursue the matter, I'm chasing iMutual for money which it hasn't itself received (which means that, indirectly, other members would be subsidising my claim if successful) which doesn't seem altogether the right thing to do. On the other hand, if other members in similar situations (not necessarily with this merchant) do pursue their claims (meaning I then subsidise them!) then maybe I should rethink. Mind you, to get matters into perspective, we're only talking about a fiver. Has this subject been aired before?
