I was just about go give advice but I have no clue,lol. All I could come up with was loads of people are properly trying to do the same thing right now and iTunes is being affected.

Don't scare me, I haven't used mine yet :tongue:

No idea, I've never used itunes to buy anything before despite having an account. I'm dreading the moment I have to figure it out LOL.
Callum'll probably know. I'm sure he uses itunes.

I got a £25 iTunes Voucher.

I clicked redeem and typed in the code. It works fine for me.

The apple website says this

iTunes says my code is "invalid".
When iTunes says that a code is "invalid" it usually means that one or more of the characters that you've entered into the redemption field are incorrect. If your code is not accepted at the iTunes Store, make sure that you've entered the code exactly as it appears on your card.

Please read your code carefully. The following letters and numbers can look very similar:

The letter A and the letter H
The letter B and the number 8
The letter D and the number 0
The letter E and the number 3
The letter G and the number 6
The letter H and the letter W
The letter J and the number 1
The letter M and the letter N
The letter O and the number 0
The letter P and the letter F
The letter Q and the letter O
The letter Q and the number 0
The letter S and the number 5
The letter S and the number 8
The letter V and the letter U
The letter Z and the number 2
If you're still unable to redeem your gift card after verifying the characters in the code, please email us using the form at the bottom of the page. Make sure that you include the serial number from the back of your card. See the section below on locating the serial number for your iTunes Gift Card.

I'm officially stupid :\

You have to scratch the stuff off beside the code on the back of the voucher and it reveals ANOTHER code, which is the one you put into itunes :\
Took me all morning to figure that out =D
That might be your issue Lewis!

Anyway, off to spend.
