Dominos Update: 1. The Dominos USA people have sent me another email: Thank you for contacting Domino's Pizza International I am forwarding your message to the designated Consultant for your area. They should contact you within 10 days. 2.  The Dominos UK people have sent a strange letter titled "Without Predudice" .  The letter goes to explain that they made full follow-ups on all my enquiries and corrective action has been taken.  They included a voucher for a small pizza.  However, they firmly believe that they are unable to offer special deals via the web because it is too "complicated".   Maybe pizza companies should outsource their technology requirements.  I bet they make lots of money on web orders vs telephone orders.  Their processing costs are lower, and they don't offer any discounts! It's all too annoying.  I just not going to order any more pizzas from them. 8:51:23 PM
