Did all mine, now got a £12.50 Sainsburys gift card. Can be used for your shopping, but not using the app. You have to go onto Sainsburys site to use it. I dont know if Sainsburys are different, but above the slide bar to choose value, there is a box that you can type the amount in.
 
I have just completed the process and am now the proud owner of a Costa Coffee e card. I copied the 14 digit number and entered it in the claim reward box, hey presto all the e card brands appeared. Made my choice, a bit of a faff entering amount to the basket bit, as you say only accepts £12. 00, so I put that in. However, job done. I felt the loss of 50p will mean fewer carbs at Costa...now am off to sit with a book, coffee and who knows what else?!!
I also went for Costa but it let me enter £12.50 and I have a £12.50 gift card waiting to be spent I did on my iPhone - I don’t know if that makes a difference.

Also, the link in the email just appeared as a thin blue line which confused me initially but then all worked fine

I was only expecting £12 so the extra 50p was a babies to me and it was nice having a choice of how to spend it
 
@blaw86 I got the email about the voucher today, thank you, and now have £12.50 to spend at Costa so well worth the wait :-D
 
Clicked on the link in the email.
This screen came up; it displays the 14 char reward code as DocB said:

Find the Copy Reward Code button and click on it.

Nicola Guess who sent the email is programme manager for the NewDawn project sponsored by Diabetes UK.

PS It worked for me. Got a £12.50 Sainsbury voucher; printed it to PDF
I got the same today.
 
Seem to have got it sorted after a bit of faffing about - I think I eventually pressed all the buttons in the correct order.
 
as others have posted voucher received now
 
It is a bit of a mission I collect Star rewards on all my diesel purchases for my truck and usually accumulate over £100 in Love to shop vouchers but normally takes me all evening converting from star rewards points into the vouchers
 
I’m so glad they have finally arrived and apologies again for the delay. Part of the issue is being in a different location to Nicola, she couldn’t send me the email addresses over email due for data protection reasons, so had to send the vouchers herself.

Someone asked how many responses we’ve had, 113 so far. The questionnaire is open for another few weeks, we would love to get to 120 responses if anyone else would like to respond. The voucher will arrive much sooner from now on!
 
Thanks mine received now £12.50 voucher i can use at Morrisons towards weekly shop
