Next VIP sale

cazi77

I know this isn't a grab it but didn't know where to post it. When do the e-mail invitations go out for the next sale and when does it start online? Thanks x

Must be next couple of days I'd have thought. The web site says 'soon':

Also found a page listing selection criteria for a VIP invite:

Am currently trying to work out whether I've met the "You have returned less than two thirds of the items you’ve bought in this year " criteria - I think I have but not 100% sure

I was able to register for a slot on Sun 19th Dec last year (and my invite turned up the same day) and the year before I got a slot via my account on Sun 20th Dec and the invite by email on the 21st. So on that logic, I will be keeping an eye on my account this Sunday!

I got mine on the 19th last year too - so I shall be hot footing to the computer every hour and fingers crossed!!!

Hmm my account showing as not invited. In the past, even if I've not yet received the email I've been able to still access the VIP site.

So have called Next - because the only reason I subscribed to the directory was because they told me I would get a VIP invite. I have no use for the stupid thing as I do all my shopping online, but they persuaded me to have it saying that I would get a VIP invite.

They have said I (allegedly!) HAVE been selected, but must wait until my account is activated, possibly not until Wednesday. Not sure I believe them but either way, I'll be calling back on Wednesday if still nothing, as otherwise I feel I've been conned into paying for a directory I don't want and for no good reason.

Just for information for the benefit of anyone else who was getting a page saying 'only for selected customer only' - I have now received my invite and can access the page

So looks like they really HAVE changed the process. Whereas previously, if you were on the invite list you could access the page regardless of whether or not you had received your email invite, it now seems to be that they are releasing access as and when they send out the invite emails.

So those of you that can't get in yet, don't lose hope, you may be on the list but they haven't got to you yet.
