I've booked a listed businesses before I joined BDB can I still claim their discount?

The short answer is no,

That wouldn't really be fair on the business now would it?
There are many MORE savings you can claim for services you have not yet booked. It shouldn't rest on a business to cover that loss.

You will notice an offer expiry at the bottom of all vouchers, which also contains certain conditions and some have additional conditions.
These specify the requirements a business deems necessary for you to be able to redeem their offer and one in particular is " New bookings only ".

Hence they are not obliged if you were already an existing customer of theirs before joining Bridal Discount Book. So we do please ask our Bride & Groom members to respect this fact and not abuse the system. This way it stays fair for everyone.

Find many more answers to these kinds of questions on our Frequently Asked Questions page
