Next VIP sale...can i use my friends slot?

My friends got a VIP slot for the sale but she doesnt need it and would like to give it to me (i am currently 35 weeks pregnant), which is really thoughtful of her.

However i was wondering if there is a way i can order stuff but either pay it by my credit card there and then (so she doesnt get the bill on her account)...or any other way??

    You'd have to use her account, and pay for it through the credit account. Nice friend if she's ok with that!!

    Yeh was well chuffed. But was wanting to pay some other way so she doesnt have to bother with bills etc...

    The payment card has to be registered to the account holder's address. My mum tried to pay for some of my order one year (as part of my Christmas present), but was unable to do so as sh lives at a different address.

    I used my friends account once. All stuff had to be delivered to her house. I ordered the stuff and then wen straight onto her account and made a payment for the full ammount as you cannot pay with a credit/debit card. It was fine x
  • If your friend lets you use her account once she gets her statement, as long as its paid in full there is no interest. You can pay with gift cards, so you could get the exact amount put on a gift card, and then she can pay it off.
