    What on earth is the point of coming on here for advice and then not giving enough information for people to advise ??

    Not everyone comes here for advice.

    Some posters see this forum as a sport. The challenge is to drip feed just enough information, and keep it just juicy enough, to keep us posting.
    Some of them are masters and have spun several threads out to ten or more pages before they run out of tidbits or the mods close the thread.
    The best ones are entertaining and interesting to observe how they play us like salmon.

    I don't think this will be one of the best ones  :/

    Having a warehouse or postal/office address in England is not necessarily the same as being a UK registered business for the purposes of consumer rights - plus your rights will (at least in part) depend on the information they provide prior to purchase... hence the request for the business name/link to the site.

    Why won’t you name them…without a name you can’t get the help you need , it also helps others to avoid them

    Perhaps it's a company providing a niche 'type' of clothing that the OP doesn't want to link to? ;)

    Didn't realise just how many there are... When you get websites on which are the best.. You then know there are far more than you ever realised..

    I remember at least one of these schemes being touted on Dragon's Den.

    It's the logical next step for the fast food generation.

    Yeah - it started with suit/dress hire and then is slowly creeping over to fashion. I know Moss Bro’s have done something similar for fashion items (not suits) where you get the ‘current’ season box rented to you; and the send back. Also call it ‘greener’ but I don’t see how it’s true if the clothing changes every few months…
