I think that Additions Direct are Awful

:mad: I ordered 2 Underbed Storage units to fit under beds I had ordered from their website on 4/1/11 they were in the sale a great price of £22 each. On previous dealings with Very/Additions whatever they want to call themselves!!!! I wasn't to optimistic. I was right I have received a letter stating that I will not be receiving My items as they atre No longer available. Lo and behold when I check online I can purchase the same item I had ordered but for the new price of £99 each stock available new product code but it is exactly the same item dimensions, colour etc....... I feel that they are underhand and misleading to customers also I had to hold for 10minutes was cut off, redialled held for a further 10 mins then spoke for 10mins on an 0844 no!! I was told they have had to change supplier likely story!!! :eek:I know I am not going to receive this item but I have reported them to trading standards in a hope that one day enough people complain and something is done.

Sounds like they had mispriced them on the website so they took them from sale and then relisted them. This is a common enough occurence and theres not much TS can do about it.

No need to type so big.

It seems very unlikely that there would be such a large increase. If it is the case it is likely just a simple mispricing as the above poster says.

Don't be so sure guys, catalogue companies put up and down their prices by quite big numbers, using the same excuse of "sold out" I saw on Littlewoods a tunic that was reduced to something like £12.50...selling fast they said....low stock they said...sold out they said. Within a few days the exact same item was back in stock, available in all colours..but surprise surprise the price was suddenly significantly more.

I've had pricing issues with Littlewoods over so called new and sale stock that I need to write to them about.
