Next VIP slots 2010

Clutterfree

I never get VIP slots for their big Christmas and Summer sales. I only ever get VIP slots for their mid-season sales.

The VIP sale will more than likely start on Wednesday at 7 as ordering for xmas delivery ends at 6pm on Wednesday - VIP sale always starts when that finishes! If its the same time frame as last year the invites will go out monday from 3pm,

Aargh!!! I am out on Wed eve - is it sad to consider cancelling going to a party for Next sale?? Don't even know if I've got an invite yet!

Hope I get a VIP slot especially having spent quite a bit in the last week

Does anyone know how long Next has been charging £3.99 to have goods sent back via a courier?????? Ive just noticed on my 'Recent activity' that Ive been charged £3.99 - but not sure why as Ive not sent anything back??? Think the £3.99 returns is a bit steep???

They only charge the £3.99 if you send the whole order back, and then they refund the initial delivery charge of £3.99, so they cancel each other out. You only lose out if you used a free delivery code in the first place. They were forced to introducve it due to someone challenging them in court over delivery/returns charges.

Me too, if you signed up for the chance of a VIP invite they will have sent you a directory and charged for it as that was one of the conditions of an invite.

The only thing I can think why theyve charged me £3.99 is I placed an order for some flowers which they cancelled due to the weather so Im guessing thats what the £3.99 is for as Ive not sent anything back that Ive ordered????

I am the opposite, I never get mid-season sale invites, only the big ones.

Are you thinking of the one that was on here the other day where someone had posted (somewhere!! can't find the thread!!) about the VIP slots - it was a box showing on your account which you could click on and 'register' your interest in becoming a VIP if you matched the criteria..

Oh yes maybe that was it. Wasn't there a list of criteria you needed to meet like get the catalogue? Which I have never done and still got a VIP slot for the summer sale.
