    Hi
    Swearing at them might even lose you your boots card as well, I hope you get something sorted xx


    I wouldnt swear at them, i just feel so mad inside that this order has taken over my life to get it here and now its all damaged, facing the prospect of sending it back, anoth er day wasted waiting for collection and another day waiting for a new delivery and now to find out that they arent offering exchanges as they have NO stock to exchange.

    WOOHOO RESULT:T

    1500 points added to my card for my troubles, so its worth ringing back and speaking to someone else. Getting a little cross helped instead of my usual calm understanding manner.

    Forogt to add, although items are showing as IN stock on .com.
    THEY HAVE NO STOCK OF ANY OF THE SALE ITEMS. They are hoping that no one buys any of it as it is full price and the few that do buy items will get a cancellation email as they have no sale items even at full price to send them.
    :TIs thankful to those who have shared their :T
    :T fortune with those less fortunate :T
    :T than themselves - you know who you are!

    I have saved over £200 on my advantage card to treat ME to something. I was saving up for a running machine but I cant spend the points on line. Does anyone else find this completely ridiculous? I emailed them to ask why and all they said is 'We havent got the technology' B*lls!!!

    Is there any way round this? Sorry if this is the wrong place to post this, but I thought with all the Boots experts on this forum, someone might know something!!


    thanks

    Yes there is.

    Write down the item number of the running machine, go into store and go to the photo counter and place a .com order instore. You can order .com items instore and pay with points and have it delivered to your home, an item this big wont be allowed to be delivered to store. You can buy any item of .com instore.
