Strange NEXT account!

Strange thing happened to us with NEXT catalogue.....

They have sent my 12yr old one!! Now I know she hasn't applied for one lol They keep sending letters offering her free delivery with her 1st order, price of catalogue added to first oder, etc! :eek: :confused:

I applied for one over a yr ago (in my name of course lol), and got refused, not a bad thing in the long run, don't need the extra debt lol

Does that mean they have opened an account for her?? :confused:

Very strange!

    Phone them and stop them sending stuff and close the account if its been opened. Do they charge £3.00 for the catalogue still?

    Are you sure? A few clicks on a website, enter your address and you start getting catalogues, maybe? I know one of my children managed to sign up to receive a catalogue from an online shop. (not the credit type shoppping from home stuff, just a monthly, quarterly, whatever advertising thing, but it can easily be done)

    I have writer's block - I can't begin to tell you about it.
    You told me again you preferred handsome men but for me you would make an exception.
