I had a missed call on my phone last night, i have just checked the number on google and it is the number for Forever Wedding Rings. Can't remember if I have entered any comps for this company? does anyone know? or are they just trying to sell something?
I really hope I have won because i am getting married in May and haven't sorted out the rings yet!
cheers
Adam

update. i have just called them, and they think it is a runners up prize for a competition, but the person who is doing it isn't in work yet
i have found this comp that i think i entered.

    Still £150 off a pair (as runners up prize) so definitely worth seeing what they've got :D

    Hope you find yourselves a bargain (or that they've got it wrong and you won 1st prize!).

    Congrats :D

    Hi, I also received a call from them saying Id won a runners up prize of 150 off 2 rings, they rang to cancel first appointment and ive arranged another one for this saturday. I was also trying to see if anyone had dealt with this company as am wary of buying something off an unknown in my house with no premises address to make sure they exist!! Have only found this article thus far:

    Here you go:)
    EDIT: It seems a bad company IMHO.
    ETA: Got this:
    Hi Loulabelles, what are the vases like? I didn't think about putting vases on the window sill, I was thinking of having candles. What flowers are you having in them?
    Mrs S2b, have you got any photos of the dresses so we can help you decide between the two?
    Where is everyone buying their wedding rings from? We had a man from Forever Wedding Rings round last night, he was so lovely and spent over two hours with us. Just wondered if anyone else had dealt with this company?

    Hi Everyone,
    I haven't been on here for a while but always try to keep tabs on where people are with their planning - the only problem with it is that it always makes me feel so un-organised!
    Ajb205 - we also had Forever Wedding rings round, we met them at a wedding fair and then a friend recommended them to us. It was so nice to sit and try on so many and match them with my engagement ring without any hassle. We ended up buying both our bands and H2b treated me to my eternity ring too, (we had our first child in Feb this year). All I will say is if you do go with them then make sure you barter on costs as we managed to reduce ours by about £200. Also with the costs of metal rising, we were advised to buy this year.
    I think I have got most of my main things planned now, off to the wedding fair at Earls Court in September so I am trying to wait until after to that to hopefully get some new ideas.

    Hi ladies (and gentlemen),
    I just wanted to make a post that commends a good company (rather than ripping a part a bad one, which I've experienced a couple of times now in planning my wedding).
    We had a great experience with Forever Wedding Rings, based in Southampton but they travel all over I think. They do home visits to show you their range of rings and discuss what you're looking for/what you like, materials designs shapes prices etc. If you decide to go with them they carefully write down your order and get you to double check it then take a deposit and ask how you want to pay the rest (we ordered last October, paid our deposit and then chose to do another 3 installments every 3 months).
    We of course worried the whole time as it's a long wait before you get the rings, as they won't send them until your last payment goes through, but we needn't have worried at all. They emailed us on Wednesday to say the rings were ready and where would we like them sent, I asked them to send them to h2bs work and they arrive with him before 1pm the next day. He was so good and didn't look at the rings until we were back at home together in the evening (he has so much more will power than me!) and I felt sick worrying that they wouldn't be right, especially after hearing bad things about similar companies like Smooch. But I should't have worried. Both rings were exactly as ordered and looked fab.
    I just wanted to say that if anyone wants great quality but mid-priced rings then talk to this company. They use better quality metals then you get on the real high street type jewellers but don't cost as much as going to a high end jeweller as they don't have premesis costs to worry about etc.

    I can't find anything dodgy about them, maybe it was just that salesman.
