    Part of the Furniture Combo Breaker I've been Money Tipped!
    Son been waiting for his for months, he's moved now so goin to order another one
    There's no place like home :)

    Feeling down? Weak in body? Makes no difference to me, I think of you all when I'm sitting quietly.

    Hugs and healing thoughts are always going your way.
  • We are discussing the Matterbox here not the moveme.com box.

    Moveme box is for people that have recently/are moving home, with stuff like kitchen roll, UHT milk, loo roll etc in. Matterbox is run by Royal Mail with different products for different companies inside used as a form of advertising.

    Hope this clears up any confusion
    :p

    Subject: When???


    Message: Been registered with you forever!!!....is this EVER going to
    turn up?...was summer, then Oct now Nov!!


    If this is just a marketing ploy to get details from people i think
    it's in very poor taste!


    A bit like the vodka on your first page, is this just a scam???

    Hi

    Thanks for your email.


    Matter is a new concept and while it's taken no time for consumers to get on board with Matter, it's taking longer than we'd anticipated to show the advertisers how it works and thus join in. Hence, it's been moved from Sept to Oct and now Nov.


    It's not a ploy for anything. We don't sell or rent our subscribers' details to any other organisations, but we do ask (and will ask some further questions) so we can create more specific boxes for different people in the future. Our privacy policy (http://www.matterbox.co.uk/privacy.php) outlines exactly what we do with the details we keep,


    I understand it can be disappointing but it's new, we're learning and things don't always go according to plan.


    Regards






    Tim

    I had the same email reply after my enquiry last night :confused:

    it does not mean everyone can be accepted straight away we will have to wait its a new freebie that we can ask for but they dont have the appropriate goods delivered as yet
  • i recieved same email as below.

    Thanks for your email.


    Yes, it will delivered by Royal Mail.


    Matter is published like a magazine, so they all go out at the same time. The next Matter box, which was due in October, is now coming at the end of November.


    My apologies for the delay and thanks for your patience.


    Do let me know if you have any more questions.


    so fingers crossed it will arrive in november and not be put back again.
  • Just wondering what is a good answer to put in for "what is your fave object" and which brands have the best advertising ideas??

    Dont worry have done it so hopefully i shall get a box in the next month or so

    ".........it's taking longer than we'd anticipated to show the advertisers how it works and thus join in. Hence, it's been moved from Sept to Oct and now Nov."

    Now I'm thinking its a doesnt matter box,

    ,so they are basically saying that they havent got the advertisers or enough of them signed up yet to send the box out ......
    ........if this was on Dragons Den I'd be out
