I don't post on here very often but I was absolutely horrified to hear about Graham's woes. So here goes - I have independently decided to close my account at the end of the year once my latest batch of easy payments have been fulfilled. I made this decision - not the forumites or Graham. We are all adults and we can read the comments on here and make our own minds up. It just so happens that we are all like-minded and have all experienced similar problems. It's comforting to know that these things happen to other people too.
I have seen the light and rediscovered the high street. For the first time in years, I have bought most of my Christmas shopping from there and Amazon. And yes, you have to pay to park. So what? AND I enjoyed my gingerbread latte. I don't go into town often and it's all part of the experience.
Over the years with QVC, I've had some absolute bargains but some shocking dross too. 'Fine' jewellery that was valued at next to nothing by a professional jeweller being one thing that springs to mind. I have had parcels that never turned up, incorrect items sent to me, missing items in sets, previously used items, refunds that took over a month to reach my bank account. And the list goes on. I've just come to the conclusion that it's just not worth the hassle any more. That and the fact that I just can't find the bargains any more. Where have all the fantastic beauty TSVs gone? There's so many of them now from each brand that it totally devalues them. For example, I have no interest in the upcoming Decleor and Philosophy TSVs because they are just the same old, same old. Not to mention that the last Philosophy fragrance I bought from QVC had no scent whatsoever. Totally watered down. I've gone back to Chanel No 5 - now there's a real scent.
I realise this is a rambling rant of a post but I just wanted to share and let you know that reading your posts has helped me reach this conclusion.
Over to you guys now!
