I don't want to get into an argument as I only posted this info to help others who are worried about their deliverys but I worked for next directory for 4 years up untill April this year and I can assure you that every bit of info I have posted today IS correct an IS NOT A LOAD OF POO:mad: :mad: . Next directory staff get a copy of the sale listing around a week before the sale starts and are able to place there orders to get first pick this was one of the perks of my job along with the staff shop and discount. Couriers are then suppost to get 2nd choice followed by vip's and then people who ring on a sale morning!!!! I know the staff in the shops are not able to get anything until the morning of the sale this is becouse they are the retail side of next and I worked at the mail order side the 2 sides are compleatly separate even though they have the same name this is the same for the way they are paid and the way their bonuses are worked out!

You seem very quick to acuse me of lying but I can assure you this is how it works and you don't seem to mention how your version is the holy grail. Oh and there is no limit to how much any employee is allowed to spend either just on how much they return.

I am sorry now that I ever posted what I thought was helpful info on here and it is also a shame that some people think they know everything about everything and try and shoot down those of us that are just trying to help others. If people don't agree with what others are saying or believe a different senario there are polite way of saying so not pratically saying that person is talking a load !!!!!!. It seems to me that there are a few people on this forum who are under the impression that they are above the rest of us:mad: :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad:

goodness me chill out! honestly its just the next sale! i was clearly just pointing out my experiences working with next for the last 10 years! obviously we have very different views! i wasnt insisting you were a liar just pointing out that some of what you say isnt nessisarily the case. Sorry to cause you such a problem. Just to point out i also do not think i am above anyone else, i was, merely helping people out with y own next experiences.
now chill out and stop getting your knickers in such a twist over something so ridiculous!!

ok then well wasnt on here wanting a fight!:D so i hold my hands up and say i am wrong:o ! but in all my years i havent heard of it happening or if it does, they certainly dont get all the of the decent stuff! there is still plenty left! i know we get first dibs in store but i didnt think directory or couriers did! i know we put limits on the amount our employees want otherwise i'd probably buy half the shop! sorry but it infuriates me :mad: when people assume we get everything first and dont leave anything for shoppers!in my opinion its the vips or the first people in the store queue that go mad and buy loads (but geneally they return loads too!)

Ive just realised that some bits I ordered are faulty. But Ive already sent back bits it came with with the delivery note. How do I send them back with no delivery note?

:mad: just been told on the phone that the last of my 5 items are now out of stock and i will not get them, ever. Even tho i had a vip slot on thus 5pm and they were showing loads as well as up 2 five day dell. Still i suppose i was lucky enough 2 get most of what i wanted for the kids. I do remember that this happened to me over xmas as well. Luck of the draw i guess.

Oh no! I'm still waiting on a few bits. Its not a disaster if they don't come apart from 1 bit. Its a bikini top. I've got the bottoms & its too late to send them back if I don't get the top!
