    This does make sense about the account being locked, they had to find a way around us lot somehow. I am going to give up now lol. However I have always managed to order during the last few sales thanks to you guys, so I am grateful for that. :T

    I haven't been able to log in to my account at all since yesterday, so the locking thing would fit for me. I also used the summer sale loophole, so maybe they lock the accounts of the cheaters!
  • :mad: :mad: :mad: Just been into the sale, in my VIP slot which was 6pm - I got about half my stuff into my basket when am error message came up and emptied my basket :mad:

    Started to panic, and put some more stuff into basket - again did about half the stuff and it came up with error message again!

    Everything I wanted went out of stock by the time I got it into my basket for a third time :cry: Just about managed to get myself a pair of jeans and a coat, and a couple of bits for each of the kids - NOT happy!!

    I've tried phoned Next, but obviously the lines constantly busy......
    grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr

    I agree! I also seem to recall this poster blagging a slot in the summer sale? (correct me if i'm wrong). We all want some half price goods, it's no good getting all superior about it!

    Good luck to everyone, hope you get at least some of what you want. If not, life goes on!
    yes, i recall that too. you could also say that it's unfair that some customers order some items in different sizes to see which fits better thus meaning that other customers find these items out of stock but hey that's life. i guess it's first come first served.

    Warning - if you try deleting some items that are sold out from your basket, the basket may crash and empty. It did to me :( and had to start all over again. Just leave them......it doesnt hurt.

    im getting fed up now as most of what i wanted is sold out and if next are letting non vips order over the phone when not even vips can im going to complain

    And getting a VIP slot is fair when others don't?

    Good to hear that non-VIPs are getting their orders in too as they are just as important. :j
  • think yourselves all very lucky!! I was due to be paid yesterday but as I have been on sick since getting my tonsils out fortnight ago they havent paid me.....so no money for any last minute bits......and more importantly the next sale!! I am absolutely gutted, so just remeber theres always someone worse off than yourself, but life just goes on.

    I don't think non vips or vips should have priority, i managed to get a vip slot for 10pm but have just phoned my order through.. think Next should just knock the vip slots on the head
    Thanks to everyone that posts :T:money:
