I had a problem when trying to purchase an item with a retailer using a DDS discount code. I emailed the DDS team to explain the issues. They promptly came back and resolved the issues. Great service to John and the DDS team.

Absolutely perfect by John, I put my query to you and it was seen to very quickly. John’s email was really nice as my husband had died and I could feel he was so genuine in his email.
Thank you John you are a lovely guy.

I had trouble accessing the page required to purchase my discount card when following the link from my account - the page just kept hanging. After exhausting all my efforts one email to Support saw John email me back after some computer wizardry and the pipe was unblocked. TVM. Card purchased and verified seamlessly and quickly after that.

This website for former and current serving forces personnel was a welcome find. My recent issues with trying to secure a deal was helped enormously by John who was super quick and knowledgeable in guiding me through the process. Absolute pleasure to find someone with customer care at the forefront of their priority.

Excellent service all round and love the benefits of having a DDS card.

Great support from the team with regards to an account issue I was having. John from the team sorted it in 24 hours and card now fully working again. Thank you all.
I lost my card and was later found, but i had reported it lost via the app, and never thought anymore. a week or so i could not use my discount card as the app had said it was expired. i email DDS and after being pointed out by John i had reported it stolen and left it at that. once all my details had been confirmed John re issued me a new card straight away as it had only just been issued. A big thank you to john for being super helpful and very quick to advise and rectify my failing . nice to have helpful friendly advisors like this

My puppy chewed my card after the postman delivered whilst I was out. I emailed john and he got back to me straight away. The issue was resolved with zero drama. In a polite and extremely professional manner.
A real credit to the defence discount service as a member of the team and the whole shebang in itself.
Well done and thanks to all, especially John.
