Anyone else still getting stuff delivered from their xmas Next VIP slot??

It is the same every year but I am a bit fed up now! My order keeps turning up one or two items a week. i didn't order as much this year so was hoping I would have it all by now! I had 2 items turn up last week (no tracking e-mail sent to me for these) and I am now just waiting for one last item. I had been thinking I probably would never get the last few things (I had this problem last year with a coat- they sent me an e-mail telling me I had returned it but I had never received it) but after getting 2 items last week, maybe I will get it next week??

I was going to ring them but I did this before and got told I wouldn't get an item and then it turned up a few days later??!

I just don't get why it takes sooooo long. You can not see on line where your orders are and if they have been dispatched until they send you an e-mail. I think it is all a bit rubbish.

Anyone else still getting VIP slot deliveries?? I think the courier is fed up of coming to my house :rotfl:

    Yes.
    Every year is the same. I received a parcel on Tuesday morning - couldn't remember placing an order wasn't until I looked at the prices on the invoice I
    realised it was from the VIP sale !

    I got the last of my sale stuff last week - fair enough it took quite a time to arrive, but amazingly I got everything I ordered! i've been really pleased with the sale this time.
  • :( I'm still getting stuff delivered from the VIP sale too.....zzzzzzzzzzzzzzz
    :p
  • Yep! Me too. SD cards arrived last night- i'd given up hope and bought one last week- typical.
    A camera I ordered for my MIL's birthday next week hasn't arrived- jolly sure if I go and get another it will turn up!
    You really can't win with the sales stock- why oh why does it take soooo long to locate and send? It's a mystery to me!
  • I'm still waiting for 2 things and am giving up hope they will turn up now!!
    One of them definately won't because it was some earphones for £7 and according to my statement I received in the post the other day I have already received them!!! I have checked all my delivery notes and sure enough there is one with the earphones on but I know I have never received them!!!:mad: I doubt there is nothing I can do because they were supposed to be in a parcel that I got with ALOT of other stuff back in December and I should have checked the delivery notes so I will have to just put it down to a bad experience!!
    The other thing is an Ipod dock alarm clock radio and when I spoke to Next about 2 weeks ago about a faulty duvet set they said they 'were still waiting for stock!!' I think the letter will be arriving soon to say that they have been unable to fulfill my order!! Glad to see other people are still receiving stuff - maybe some hope then?

    Yes last one yesterday. I don't like their system invoicing, paying ,outstanding orders etc so I'm closing my account.

    I'm still waiting on a camera too - called them last week and they said they were awaiting stock, but one had been allocated to me so I should receive it in the next couple of weeks :j
  • Still waiting on one last item a red vase - good thing is though at least it spreads the cost out on your statements!!

    Hi thanks all - gives me hope it might turn up! it is just annoying cos it is a maternity jumper I am waiting for and I would have worn it loads already with all this cold weather! It will be warm by the time I get it :p so might have to return it!

    They really annoys me but you can not beat their sales for kids clothes so I don't want to close my account. It just annoys me every year. :mad: and how can they be waiting for sale stock?? It doesn't make sense to me.

    I wish I was. Just had a pair of jeans delivered which I had ordered in VIP sale. The item I really wanted is supposedly still on order?
