Who actually uses this? Is it secure?

I saw that, I'm a bit dubious myself. 75% of rrp is the rrp set by the brand, not say the website disc-supps. As sublimejeh pointed out with 3AD, they set a very high rrp so that when shops sell it it appears as though the shop is selling it at half price. I think 3AD's rrp was £99, so when it's sold at £50 they can say 50% off. I read the small print on the website and it does appear that only brands are present, not say myprotein or adonisnutrition. I'm also wary of the text messages informing of new offers, I would imagine each text would cost something, but I couldn't find any mention on the site or in the email the cost of the texts, whether it was free or not.

Yes it's completely secure, otherwise we wouldn't be supporting it. The deals are because the company may have some stock to shift, or short dated or something like that. Some deals may not be for you, but even if you take up say one every couple of months, you'll still be making a saving

I know £24 a year doesn't sound like much but I'm a student and my phone bill is already costing me too much. It's mighty tempting though. Is there not a way to find out about stock clearances direct from the companies?
