    Wow seems really good! Can I sign up and order straight away? If so I might wait till 9am tomorrow morning. And how does the 2 week thing work? From the date you sign up? Or from whenever you first order

    yeah you can sign up and order straight away i did i joined 2 weeks ago. not quiet sure if the 2 week thing is from when you order item or not but that`s how am doing it at the moment. it seems good so far. am waiting for a pair of sunglasses i ordered 2 weeks ago and this morning i ordered a bracelet. items are updated sometimes on a daily basis it`s best to keep checking the website. as some items go fast . most items today were gone by 9.40 am so you need to quick.

    Well I bite the bullet and signed up - as did my sister today. We shall see what we can get. I've worked out that if I can get 2 games in my year then that makes the money back anyway so fingers crossed.

    Does anyone know - do the member to member exchanges have the same rule as the giveaway/reviews? I.E. if I order something from a member does this actually mean I can't order a giveaway or review item for 2 weeks?
    Never give up the dream! :beer:

    I just asked Lynn about how often you can requet stuff and she replied "Just to clarify, we did change the rquests to once every two weeks for new Members. However after consideration it is now once a week for everyone this is to make it fair to all."

    I think you can request an item as soon as you join. Member 2 Member items have same rules as other freebies.
  • today i got foster grant sunglasses and [FONT=&quot]Pandora Style Silver Plated Bracelet with Pink Bow (Similar to shown).in the post. both are very nice. so far i would say it`s worth the money.

    Notification of change to terms & conditions
    This is in response to the many emails we have received outlining that the new Membership terms are unfair.
    We have given this a lot of thought to this, and have come up with revised Membership terms, which are much fairer for all Members.
    There will be no more Giveaway/Review page. Instead members will be offered products in strict rotation. This is to make it fair to you all and also will allow us more time to source higher quantity and quality products. When it is your turn to be offered a product we will email you with a choice, simply let us know which product you would like and we will send it out to you that day.
    We guarantee that the annual total of products you receive will be in excess of your Membership fee - or your money back!
    We are sorry that the terms have had to change, but can assure all the changes have only ever been about making Membership better and fairer for you all.
    Best,
    Lynn

    n.b. the old "new" terms where that over the Xmas period people could request a freebie/review once every 2 weeks - until Early Jan.
  • Please could others let me know what their recent experiences are with this company?

    I join 4 weeks ago for £25 and despite having ordered a different product each week under the 'old, old' system, I have only received a welcome letter so far and my emails are being ignored.

    I also finding the rule changes a bit of a joke!

    I'd been having bother getting replies a week or so ago. Seems to be back to normal though. Delays are being blamed on a them waiting from promised items to arrive - they can't pass them on iff they don't have them. I've been told a thing I ordered is being posted today.
  • Thanks Loucien - I'll send off another email today then - does anyone have a phone number for them or is email the only way of contacting them?
