HOLIDAY15SPEAKER20

Black out of stock

I know this post has been flying around last 2 days.

Some of you have issue with over-charged $157 instead of $143. I'm struggling with it either. I bought one and they charged me $157 (but I already make a claim through Paypal)

Today I try again with Code SPEAKER20, but i don't know what it does. Price now even goes down to $101.97.

Please note: voucher codes are case sensitive.

Method 1

What I did. I install Honey add-on into Chrome, when adding speaker to cart and use Honey, It drops down to $101.97 by itself. Wondering if this is price error. Pay with PayPal.

Here is my proof

https://ibb.co/hdqnP7f

Method 2

Open two tabs to the deal. In tab 1, click Buy Now to add product and go to cart. Switch to tab 2 and go to cart. Enter coupon code HOLIDAY15 and apply. Switch back to tab 1, enter coupon code SPEAKER20 and apply. Proceed to checkout and pay with PayPal. (Thanks to OO.)

Happy Hunting everyone

  • cykoman on 17/12/2019 - 02:28

    Ordered at 1:40pm on the day of posting. Haven’t contacted Bose at all. Paypal showed authorisation for 3 days and money had been taken out of my bank account.
    That paypal transaction and payment disappeared for three days, then just tonight at 2:20am, my bank account was charged the $101 amount and Paypal finally showing it as a “Purchase”.

    Anyone else have this? Hoping to get a tracking number in the morning, or for it to show on my AusPost App.

    • frbargain on 17/12/2019 - 05:31

      Yep. Now waiting for shipping confirmation

    • GreenRomeo on 17/12/2019 - 09:32

      Exactly the same thing, including timing, happened to me.

    • KangaDrew on 18/12/2019 - 12:31

      Same for me. Tracking info received and delivery is expected this afternoon.

    • cykoman on 18/12/2019 - 14:02

      Got shipping information yesterday automatically on the AusPost app, and expected delivery tomorrow. Thanks OP!! Didn’t have to contact Bose or do anything, just had to wait a bit longer than those who called!

  • RSmith on 17/12/2019 - 05:50

    I might be one of the unlucky ones.

    Got the email to provide with new payment details, which I did last week. No email from Bose, nothing in Australia Post. Hopefully the money is not lost.

    • viki8702 on 17/12/2019 - 12:46

      Same situation with me. But i spoke with them yesterday and they said don't have any ETA.

      • RSmith on 17/12/2019 - 14:19

        We might have missed out… That's the feeling I get.

    • bajirao on 19/12/2019 - 12:35

      Happened to me. Called again today and was told the first time I had called - that order also ran into issues. Provided payment details again and got an order reference number (I had not taken the order ref number last week when I had called). Checked my Credit card online and did not see any transaction from Bose for last week but today's one is showing as Pending. Now will check daily to make sure it's posted and does not drop off.

  • Carrian on 17/12/2019 - 08:25

    Got a paid notification this morning. Merry Christmas all.

  • keejoonc on 17/12/2019 - 09:36

    Didn't do a thing after ordering and mine got delivered yesterday. Didn't even receive shipping notification nor tracking details. Was charged the correct amount on paypal too.

  • Bold Eagle on 17/12/2019 - 09:45

    Weird, I paid on the day via MasterCard Direct Debit and checked my bank today and it looked like the amount has been declined (placed back into my account) for the 'ACOUSTIMASS 10 V BLK' $974.35 but when I review my email, today I finally get a TAX Invoice from BOSE for that amount $974.35. I am completely unsure of what to do and I really don't want the speaker package anymore as I has found something far superior.

      Return it? What's the dilemma?
      Bose offers free return as far as I know.

      • Bold Eagle on 17/12/2019 - 09:50

        I will but I have no idea as to what is going on and have received monies back into my account.

          If you get the speakers despite getting your money back just get in touch and return it. If you don't get the speakers you don't need to do anything. What's so difficult and confusing unless you are planning on keeping something you haven't paid for?

          • Bold Eagle on 17/12/2019 - 10:02

            @keejoonc: You are right but I hope the return process is not a pain. As it is a 27.5KG package;

              @Bold Eagle: Christ.. why on earth would you buy that if you weren't sure you needed it?

              • Bold Eagle on 17/12/2019 - 11:23

                @Duplicity: Let's be clear - I need a HTPC speaker package and are in the process of buying one.

                It was a pure impulse buy and I got caught up in the OzBargain excitement and when I saw HOLIDAY15 + SPEAKER20 both coming off the initial price (from $1499 to $974.35) it was incredibly hard not to go through the motions, and I did.

                The last week has allowed me to do some proper research and the package I am considering buying "Yamaha NS-555 5.1 Speaker Package ($1499)" is far superior and I am certain to get many years out of it.

                • Duplicity on 17/12/2019 - 11:26

                  @Bold Eagle: Fair enough but that's a big impulse buy - they might ask you to take it back to a store?

                  • Bold Eagle on 17/12/2019 - 13:58

                    @Duplicity: I have already had the funds returned to my bank account. To be more specific the charge kept bounced along from the 10.12.19 uptil the last date I noted being 16.12.19 whilst not actually being processed. This morning the account had increased by that amount and the charge simply disappeared and no trace in my account history. When I called Westpac last week they said if it was not processed after 5 days the transaction would be declined.

                    I am confused by getting a detailed invoice today of BOSE dated for the 16.12.19.

      Why not refuse delivery and ask to return to sender then get refund?

      • Bold Eagle on 18/12/2019 - 10:00

        They arrived this morning and I just asked the Aust Post bloke to send them back. I am now going to contact BOSE and tell them so. I am not going to try and play some game with BOSE and assume that I got a free set of speakers.

        Damn I have just noticed the charge has again appeared on my bank statement after disappearing.

  • reddevilpin on 17/12/2019 - 10:08

    received the speaker yesterday … didnt even get shipping notifications as well. ..Merry Christmas all !

    • X3 on 17/12/2019 - 10:14

      Thanks for this update - i made the call to re-do the order via CC after the email request (last week) but received exactly zero comms since, and CC charge is still pending. Patience X3, patience….

    All re-orders done on Friday should be dispatched on or before 19th Dec (just got this info from Bose chat) and you can use the old order number to validate.

  • ClintonL on 17/12/2019 - 10:32

    So how's the sound on this compared to my yamaha yas108 i'm using in my room. Ozbargained it because it was cheap and not expecting to get them, i have no idea what to do with it now.

  • coastbargain on 17/12/2019 - 10:45

    Have not received an invoice yet and the pre-authorisation has disappeared from my credit card, but Bose just confirmed on chat that my order has been dispatched and the charge will appear on my card again shortly.

  • Stebbo on 17/12/2019 - 11:08

    Got mine yesterday arvo. Paid the 101 or so on PayPal.

  • swampson on 17/12/2019 - 16:00

    When ringing up to do the whole verifying of order etc, has anyone tried (and succeeded) in ordering more than the number of items they initially placed their order for?
    eg. ordered only 1 x mini Soundlink at $101.97 via this voucher hack, but then when ringing them to verify later, tried to up this to 2 or 3?

    • snvl on 17/12/2019 - 16:32

      They know how many you ordered

      • swampson on 17/12/2019 - 16:41

        yeah i know - just wondered if anyone had managed to successfully increase the order though.

      • Cloudie on 18/12/2019 - 15:48

        I dunno….when I called up about the $143 but charged at $159, she said “order for 10 speakers?” “No just one”

  • PuppieWayne on 17/12/2019 - 16:55

    Called them again!

    Was told to charge it to my card as there's an error with PayPal. Was supposed to be processed right away..

    4 hours later, I've yet to be charged. I think I'm one of the one that has missed out.. I can't believe I have to go thru so much trouble to get them to honour a purchase.

    • snvl on 17/12/2019 - 17:00

      I called friday, nothing to be done all good.

      No progress and chatted today. To be told that paypal was a no go, processed cc payment. I have been charged but still no email not tracking number.

      • RSmith on 17/12/2019 - 17:48

        I have been waiting for email/tracking since Friday

      • PuppieWayne on 17/12/2019 - 17:53

        Once you've been charged.. Then it's ok.
        It's when you don't get charged that you know they are just wasting your time.

        • snvl on 19/12/2019 - 09:08

          I wish, contacted them again today and order rejected by the system due lower price

          • PuppieWayne on 19/12/2019 - 21:38

            @snvl: It's Thursday and I meant to get it today. I've given up.

  • Cloudie on 17/12/2019 - 23:58

    A few days ago when I spoke to someone on chat they said that my speakers would be delivered on the 16th December. I haven't been delivered anything yet and this morning my pending transactions have disappeared from PayPal and my creditcard.

    Might gumtree it for the same price

  • datc1 on 18/12/2019 - 08:41

    Anyone else struggling with their second transaction? Seems as though they keep trying to reprocessed the second payment however keeps dropping off after a few days. Perhaps they are limiting this to one fulfilled order? Second order was for a Home 300, first a soundlink mini (received).

    • swampson on 18/12/2019 - 23:53

      i was in same boat as you - soundlink all went thru paypal and delivered fine.
      2nd order (mins after the soundlink) for Home 300 went AWOL, so i reordered on phone with CC and should arrive tomorrow.
      Good luck!

    • bajirao on 19/12/2019 - 12:40

      I only had 1 order for 1 item and this is still happening to me. Most likely their system is unable to cope up!

    Was already a Bose fan but they honouring this deal is definitely impressive

  • jefft1 on 18/12/2019 - 10:08

    I'm wondering if anyone received two speakers?. I initially ordered the speaker at $140. And then I cancelled the speaker purchased at $140 then went ahead and bought it at $101.40.

    The speaker that I bought at $101.40 arrived first and everything was ok. Then suddenly 2 days later, the speaker that I bought at $140 is coming today.

    I checked my bank account and the transaction that indicated $140 to Bose has disappeared so I'm not sure if I have been refunded $140.

    Just received 4 SoundLink minis. 2 black and 2 silver. The pending charge is only $203.95 so looks like they've only charged me for two. If this ends up being the case I'll call up and pay for the extra 2 as I respect them for honouring it.

    • Ansonsyd on 18/12/2019 - 11:52

  • KangaDrew on 18/12/2019 - 12:11

    I have a new $101 transaction back in my PayPal account again and Bose sent me a tracking email today with shipment expected this afternoon. Scored my first one after the $143 deal and now this one is coming through so I guess I'll be flogging one off on eBay in the coming weeks.

    There were many naysayers here saying Bose wouldn't honour the deal, but haters gonna hate! :-)

    For those people who are in the situation where they have provided cc details to bose but haven't seen any progress…

    The bank cleared the funds but Bose never took the money. I provided them with the payment details again and was given a new order number. Hopefully, it will get through this time.

    • cwan052 on 18/12/2019 - 13:05

      Might be in a similar situation. Gave CC details Monday 16, and then again during a live-chat 30 minutes ago. During the live chat, the agent gave a new order reference number and advised that a new confirmation and tracking details will be sent; haven't received any emails as of yet.

      • RSmith on 18/12/2019 - 13:12

        I provided the cc details last week after receiving the email. Up until yesterday, I was told that the order will progress and will be delivered this week. However, there was no email from them. After calling them today, they said that the order got rejected as it was somehow linked to the original order.

        I have reordered today and now is again a waiting game.

        • 3littlepigs on 18/12/2019 - 16:14

          Same here.
          I called them last week to provide my cc details but didn't receive any shipping information.
          Called in yesterday they said it's all good. Order/Sales team will email me shipping details in 24 hours
          Today I called them and they have another story saying that cc payment was cancelled. So I gave them my cc detail agaim and got a different order number.

          Advice to everyone, if you haven't received your order/update, better give them a call.

          • RSmith on 18/12/2019 - 16:37

            @3littlepigs: Tbh, the consultant couldn't provide a logical explanation for the cc payment getting cancelled.

            I don't have high hopes, but thought that I'll provide the cc details and will wait for the order again.

            If it's cancelled again, I will be done with dealing with them.

  • Nyclix on 18/12/2019 - 15:08

    Just listening to mine and I must say…. I'm rather disappointed by the sound quality. Tried it in a number of different rooms / corners / against walls. It simply tries to output too much bass for the unit, as soon as it starts to pump out bass the mids and high completely disappear. This is not good for any sort of music with bass. Vocals sound lovely on it but for a $200 unit ( It's on special price) my Megaboom 3 absolutely destroys it in all aspects (which you can get for $200 right now). For $100 it's not too bad but you'd be mad to pay $200 for it. Maybe it'l sound better with time but at this stage i'll be looking to flog the lot on ebay and purchase something else as gifts haha.

    Definetly do NOT buy if you like EDM, hip hop, etc. The moment the bass tries to kick in, the vocals and highs get completely recessed and this is at like 70% listening level. I'm hoping I can find a sweet spot somewhere where the sound is a happy medium but it's not looking promising! haha

    • bxpressiv on 18/12/2019 - 15:28

      I'm with you on this, it's good for the $100 category but I'd be extremely disappointed paying double. It's like each part in a track on it's own is very good, but together it's just muddled. It struggled a little on some of the metalcore stuff I was listening to.

      • Carrian on 18/12/2019 - 15:31

        damn it, i was looking to primarily listen to northlane, abr, thornhill etc. i have mine arriving friday.

        • Nyclix on 18/12/2019 - 15:34

          Testing the Megaboom 3 vs it in a lot of different musical genres and the Megaboom 3 just sounds cleaner and much more open overall. The boom sounds nice when there's not a lot going on eg vocals etc, but as soon as bass kicks in all other frequencies take the back seat. I'll probably end up selling all 4 on eBay and buying something nicer for my mum.

        • bxpressiv on 18/12/2019 - 15:44

          Don't want to put you off, give it a crack- you can always return it…..which I will probably do.

          • Nyclix on 18/12/2019 - 15:50

            @bxpressiv: Some music sounds really nice on it. I'm probably quite an audiophile and very picky with music haha but the main reason for buying them was for gifts so they might me quite happy with the sound.

            • Nyclix on 18/12/2019 - 16:20

              @Nyclix: Upon further listening this music really excels as softer forms of music. Vocals and guitar sounds amazing on it. It definitely has its strengths.

              • bxpressiv on 18/12/2019 - 16:25

                @Nyclix: That's what I mean, hearing the drum stick hitting the bell on a cymbal is amazingly crisp but then when you put a band together it just sounds a bit muddy.

        If I'm honest I only bought 4 to flog some for a profit to cover the cost of the ones I keep.

          Facebook and Gumtree flooded with these now. That and the free Samsung Galaxy Buds, lol

          That's good thinking as long as it doesn't cause others to miss out.

          People like to pretend that it's a "community" on here, but in reality it is every man/woman/other for themself.

    ok, this looks like it not meant for me.

    called friday (since i got the email asking to contact them), everything ok, order has been processed, nothing to do.
    chatted on 17/12, order got cancelled because paypal, and provided cc and got charged. i was advised that an email and tracking number will be send soon.
    no email no tracking number
    chat again today, order was rejected. WT…. They said they need credit card again. no way.

    I have decided to wait two weeks, some problems going on at the moment.

    Good luck guys and merry Xmas.

    Has anyone called today and know what the wait time is? No one has replied to my chat window for 40 minutes
