Does anyone know how long you have to have had an account with them before they start to offer you these deals?

My OH is a VIP with them, spent lots over the years, and gets them.

I have only just opened the account so not expecting it yet, but if anyone has any idea it would be nice to know for reference :D

ETA: Sorry title should have been 'next year' not 'new year' LOL

    There is a clicky on their homepage for Buy now pay Sept 2010:

    HTH


    To help you enjoy items from our new Autumn Winter range at a time of year when finances can be stretched, we're offering you the chance to Buy Now Pay September 2010 on everything! subject to status.

    That's right, simply place an order of £50 or more, quote XX666 and you won't pay a penny until September 2010 next year.

    If you haven't shopped with us before don't worry
    • Simply add the items you'd like to order to your basket.
    • Go to the Checkout and fill out a short application form to open an account with us.
    • Then enter the Buy now pay September 2010 promotion
  • Anyone is entitled to it as long as you have enough credit on your account/ have a good credit history.

    Just quote XX666 at the checkout/ over the phone.

    BEWARE though. These offers are subject to huge interest rates - you pay the interest from the day of purchase even though you dont start paying until the following September (current offer.)

    Not if you clear your account before the end of the buy now pay later;)

    Thank you - ah orders of £50 or more, is it! I see it on the homepage now, silly me :D Thought that it was maybe reserved for VIPs but it seems anyone can get it. Handy, might use that to get some new clothes....

    So, as long as I clear the balance before September 2010 I don't pay any interest on it? So if I spent £100 now, then cleared it, say June 2010, I'd only pay that £100? What would happen if I returned £60 worth of items, as it's under the £50 minimum order, would I still get the buy now pay later deal?

    Thanks :D
