I can’t use the referral code my friend has sent me over the internet.

I am from the Netherlands and he is from Germany. Whenever I use the german site i can use [de.huel.com](http://de.huel.com) it works but then i can’t send the shipment to me in the Netherlands as the German site only allows it to be in Germany or Austria. (Whenever I go to [eu.huel.com](http://eu.huel.com) the referral code doesn’t work but I can send it to my house, just no discount).

The main reason I want to use his referral code is because he introduced me to Huel and I want to help him out as I heard that using the link will give him a little discount too.

The solution is clear, find two people who are trying to do the opposite referral, and swap friends

I made a ticket with Huel and they resolved my issue. The issue was that it was region based.

Haha sorry for not being helpful before, it is indeed region based. Now you’ll know to stick to your own country in the future! #Nexit
