did you cancel once you had recieved the first batch of chocs?

Unfortunately, no. And when I logged in last night to cancel, they had already taken the money for the next batch - only 3 weeks after the 1st one, despite theri literature saying that they sent them every 4 weeks. I'm a bit dismayed by that.

Wish i'd signed up earlier when i first looked as now the elements and dark selection are unavaiable until february, i wanted one without alcohol... :-(

Just my luck the web site says:Due to unprecedented demand we are unable to offer any Introductory Selections until late January 2011. We apologise for any inconvenience caused.

I purchased the box weeks ago at the £9.95 price, they were ok chocs but not as good as some in Hotel Chocolat itself, quite a few alcohol ones which we don't eat lol.

Well they have never bothered contacting us to pay, it must be late October when we ordered them, last phone call we told them we hadn't received them as we were still waiting so not sure what they are doing but hey i wouldn't mind them sending me a second box lol my mum would love them hehe.

Unforunately The tasting Club has now suspended this offer until January '11 as there has been a huge demand...... Can't think why!!!

My husband spotted this deal on TV! By signing up to their tasting club you get a fairly big box of chocolates (around 34 I reckon), some goodies (depending on what link you go for) doe £6.95 delivered (usually £17.00)! The box would make a lovely christmas present I reckon for those into their posh chocs!

If you go through the TV offer link you pay once you've received your chocolates as they include a bill and info on how to pay and on how to cancel your trial membership (this is what hubby did with no problems.) Going through the TV offer link gives you the liquid hot chocolate (about 4 mugs worth) and chocolate slab.

If you go through Quidco or topcashback (search 'tasting club' NOT 'hotel chocolat') you have to pay up front but you get £5 cashback, it also takes you to the £6.95 offer, except you get the cashback, too. With this offer you should get some chocolate drops and some recipe cards.

If you don't use Quidco then this is the link OH used (we've only just got Quidco)
www/thetastingclub/co/uk/tvoffer (obviously replace /'s with .'s!)

(getting frustrated that I'm still not allowed to post links!!)

Being in the weekly email is usually the kiss of death for any good offer. I think it's up to about 5m recipients now, used to be about 1.5m, eek! :eek:

If you see a good deal in the forum, jump on it before the weekly email goes out!!!

I just ordered mine :j can't wait. Did anyone cancel before they received the chocs? I'm thinking of doing it now incase I forget later, but obviously no payment has been taken from me yet so I don't know if it will just cancel my whole order and I'll get nothing? :S

I cancelled mine as soon as I received the chocolates as the next one wasn't due for another month. Why not put a reminder on your calendar to cancel shortly after the payment is due to be taken? That's what I did, although the arrival of the chocolates was reminder enough in all honesty!

Tried signing up for the chocys just now (4.30pm) and there is this message when you try signing up to the TasteClub

Too late!
