in I wanna buy it or do it
Hi all

Is there a way to order from Very/isme WITHOUT opening a credit account? I just want to purchase something and pay for it straight away, no credit, no searches, nada.

Thanks

    I'd ring them, or try online without opening an account.

    Hello

    What happened when you tried to pay using a credit/debit card?

    The one time I've bought clothes from ISME I went onto their website, selected the clothes, paid online by credit card at the time of order and that was it.

    As it happened once the clothes had been delivered they weren't suitable and so were returned - the full refund was back on my credit card within a couple of days.

    At no time then or since was I asked or contacted about opening a credit account with them.

    HTH

    Thank you.

    I tried to put it in the basket and checkout and it asked for me to register - was a bit wary as I don't want/need an account.

    As it happens the laptop I wanted to buy is now OOS - typical!

    Yes, you just order, register and then pay by card.

    I have just checked this with a Very/Isme representative and they have confirmed that you still need to undergo a credit search in order to order from them.

    Shame, as I wanted to purchase something I can't seem to get anywhere else.

    I just called very and they said that if you pay by card you dont have to go through a credit search as they are not giving you any credit.
