    Hi there,

    Rest assured you will not be "hurting anyone's feelings" ... they are a company out to make money and no individual is going to be in tears if you decide to return the recipe cards! You are legally being given the option to return the cards and keep the wok ... the decisions is yours.
    Wins since 2009 = £17,600

    MANY THANKS TO ALL OPS

    I received the wok, the 36 cards and the spices and an invoice for £4.something. I rang to say that I wanted to discontinue and cancel my subscription, and asked if they want me to send the cards back.

    The operator said that she can let me have the pack for £2.50 if I want to keep it and I said:

    'What about if I decide to send it back, do I need to send everything or just the cards?' I added that I recall that the wok came free no matter what my decision about the cards.

    She said that she could not tell me until I decide whether I want to keep the pack or not and said that it cost them a lot of money to get the cards back. She was quite stroppy!

    I said I still want to cancel the sub and would she like me to send the cards back?

    She replied no, I can keep the cards and pass them to someone who would be interested.

    So it seems that the whole thing is free as an introductory offer. I made a note of the call and also de-registered automatically on their telephone number.

    The wok is a cheap thing, but hey, it's foir free, it will do while I do not have a decent frying pan!

    One thing to note: the number is an 0870 so I wonder if they make their money like that, as she kept me chatting for a while!

    surprise surprise... the wok is here! Haven't opened it yet though. Want to find out about returning/cancelling subscription first. Just tried to call the 0870 number but was on hold for 3 minutes! I do have 10 days right? Might try again later this week. Unless anyone can tell me for sure how to return the recipe cards or an easier way (without having to speak to someone!) to just cancel the whole thing?

    any help much appreciated!

    thanks

    i just noticed that the invoice is dated 22 Nov, whereas I've only received it today, 29 Nov. Payment is to be made by 7 Dec.

    Any idea when exactly the 10-day free trial ends i.e. what's the latest day I can call up to cancel subscription and return recipe cards?

    Thanks!!!
  • exactly the same thing here recived it today pay by7th
