They are really getting on my last nerve! :mad:
The problems have been endless and I've only been with them for 2 months!
Today was the final straw! I opted out of ALL editor selections, and yet I receive a book this morning!! Then it says they charge £3.00 to take it back, how annoying! :mad: Anyone else had problems with them?
Thing is, I can't get out of the contract until I buy a certain number of books with them.

Thats the problem with these clubs where they have editors selections! You have to by so many etc. It does sound a bit much having to pay to send it back - have you spoken to them to see if they can waive that as you opted out of them? If you are still going to be buying from them I would of thought they should but hey...Weight Loss - 102lb0

I had an account with them a couple of years ago (funnily enough they phoned just last night to let me know of their special offers) the editors selection used to drive me mad!
I had problems with deliveries being late, eventually bought my 5 or 6 books (cant remember) and cancelled as soon as I could.Cross Stitch Cafe member No. 32012 170-194 2013 195-207.Hello Kitty ballerina 208.AVA 209.OLIVIA 210.ELLA 211.CARLA 212.LOUISE 213.CHARLEY 214.Mother & Child 215.Stop Faffing Completed 2014 216.Stitchers Sampler. 217.Let Them Be Small 218.Keep Calm 219.

Thanks guys.
I am going to ring them, because I think it's an absolute cheek! If I'd known that's what it was, I wouldn't have signed for it!
I've also decided Louise, I am just going to order the six books and put it down to a bad decision on my part."I did then, what I knew then. And when I knew better, I did better"0 -
Just an update, they are sending me a pre-paid envelope to return the books.
Can't wait to just order my lot and get rid!"I did then, what I knew then. And when I knew better, I did better"0 -
