I have just found this on a consumer website:

QUOTE "A trader who mistakenly prices a product (for example, “28 inch widescreen television for £39.90” instead of £399) is not obliged to honour that price unless the transaction has already been completed. The trader must nevertheless take immediate steps to rectify the mistake".

I wonder where I stand as they have already charged my card for the other items I bought.

If your order comprised of x items

AND

(1) you've offered payment for x items in the form of card details

AND

(2) they've accepted your payment for x items by debiting the said card

THEN

(3) they're legally obliged to send you x items

If they don't then you're within your rights to sue............however, whether anyone would sue over £4 worth of bubble bath........I suspect Avon know that as well!

I've found someone who has ordered 26 of every type in 6 different orders, I'd love to name and shame them!

You're not wrong on the security thing...I just managed to work out how to do it myself :eek: and I am really not very technically minded!

Hi Sonee, see post 179. All posts about how to do it were deleted by the mods last night xx

Just thought I'd mention that I have filed an online complaint form with the Information Protection Commission (the people who police Data Protection breaches in the UK). Since Avon don't appear to be in any rush to protect their customers, I'm satisfied that drawing it to the attention of the IPC was warranted.

what details are people able to see, is it just orders or names and addresses and bank card details?
