Has anyone looked at their website before posting here?
Their online faq looks like it's still refering to that nov 08 box (which you had to have signed up before sept 08 to recevie) as being the next one due to be posted..but they blog on their site on 11.09.09 that "Obviously, it’s been a bit quiet around here and maybe you’re wondering whether we’ll ever do another box. Well, we will and we are. We’re putting one together now for delivery in a few month’s time. It’s taken a while, we know, but we’ve been beavering away at getting in front of brands and advertisers to show them why giving people something is better than telling them something."

Every blog since is advertising a freinds business thou....not very professional....they're communication is pretty rubbish,....but then they are affiliated with the royal mail so what do we expect :rotfl:

Have mailed them now asking if /when we should expect any more boxes...as it's 'a few months' since their sept post...it's [EMAIL="contact@matterbox.co.uk"]contact[at]matterbox.co.uk[/EMAIL] if anyone else wants to try

i'm wondering why people keep posting moans about not getting boxes without reading any of the posts that came before...explaining why you wouldn't get a box/when the next one will be? If we're here to help each other you need to read other peoples posts to get the help

Got an email from Matter saying there will be another box next year.

Think they have had problems getting companies to give enough samples to get one out this year. Guess companies are cutting back on costs due to the dreaded credit crunch.

Thanks

Got following reply

Thank you for joining Matter. We'd like to give you some stuff!



When you get your next Matterbox will depend on which participating advertisers we’re working with. It might be in a few weeks or some months’ time. In any event, we'll let you know when beforehand so you can expect it.

I will reply saying.. Hi - I would like to give you a new car. however, it depends upon ford giving me a load to give out for free. it could be soon, or never. I will let you know when the pigs start flying

Why be so sarcastic? If/when the next box comes, it will be free. The previous ones were a mixed lot of contents but I never say no to anything that hasn't cost me money.

How many other freebies have you applied for never to see them appear? Did you get as worked up with each of those as well?
