    I know i'm a newbie to the NEXT ordering online but reading another thread did seem unfair that some folk were able to book more than one VIP slot in same "sale" period, surely having 1 slot would mean more for others....

    Hi silly sausage :) I totally agree..but then some people are born more equal than others (so they think), and fairness is not something they practice.

    Ah.. then along comes Karma:rotfl:

    What a faff! Over half of what I wanted sold out while I was trying to pay, then the order wouldn't go through and I had to phone customer services. I finally managed to get two dresses and a top for £22, and because of the hassle he gave me free delivery.
    Unless I say otherwise 'you' means the general you not you specifically.
  • I spent ages looking for stuff, Checked out then at the last minute there said there was an error. I phoned, they had no record of my order. Tried to place it over the phone, everything then on a 2-4 week delay and the 1 thing I really wanted sold old so I told them to forget it. What a shambles. they've lost my custom.

    Just bought myself a spare microwave, so when my current one goes pop I will have another to whisk out straight away - unlike last time :o

    I didn't realise you had to open an account - which will be paid in full at the first opportunity - otherwise seems like a bargain for £20.00 delivered.

  • Agree the tall sale was good - I got a mixture of stuff for £117. Daughter got a load of shoes as well, for girls with a size 9 foot there`s not alot of choice out there.
  • i have to agree i didnt find one think for my daughter aged 18-24 months or 2-3 but there was lots for older kids especially teens so managed to get my ds son bits. i have found i het more stuff instore in the summer sales than winter.

    I received a VIP slot and although I agree that the Next allocation of slots is unfair (some people receive a slot year after year!) why would any of us decide not to use our slot well? I also agree that there shouldn't be the ability to re-log into the sale countless times and to be honest I don't understand why Next do this as it is absolutely manic and the site crashes even during VIP slots!! I am happy with just the one slot, and as I spend so much with them during the year its nice, perhaps, to have some sort of loyalty recognition. I am not, however heartless and do feel for you that don't have slots and are having a nightmare with the site, good luck all :0)
