Social Media - That was an eyeopener

[Clothescloth]

Hallo I’m new! I’ve been watching QVC since just after it started, and have been entertained by this forum for years! Have been meaning to join for ages, and have now finally done it! The thing that promoted me to join now was to comment on the diamonique show with Jill Franks ,if you didn’t see it you missed a treat! I quite like Jill, and l know she can get a bit silly of late, but last night she surpassed herself. I watched in a mix of amazement and horror as she kept dissolving into laughter, said she couldn’t count to more than 8, talking rubbish to ‘her producer’ getting in a mess and everything was ‘hilarious ‘ ( it wasn’t) what on earth was she on? I really expected her to be carried off after about half an hour, but she was allowed to carry on regardless. Comedy gold! I even watched again on the plus channel!

There is a post complaining that the Eek show last night was a total shambles, that they didn’t mind a laugh but that it was ridiculous. Looking at the schedule I see it was Franks presenting - was she worse than usual?

No idea as I was not watching but perhaps she did stand up comedy?
Brought out Gregg's meat pie and ate it on air?

The comment's being passed on, I wonder if anything will be done - this little piggy should be flying!

From the hour a couple of items with the presentation videos, could be what they are referring to

Pat is back.

Hello Q.Well I can see I haven't missed much on your FB.To be honest it is looking rather boring on here.I was hoping for some amazing products to lift the ol' spirits. There's not even a Christmas gift or an expensive candle to be seen.

Top customer then!

 

[donna255]

I'm surprised they didn't say how disappointed they no longer accepted postal orders.

 

[shopperholic]

Remember when QVC first started you could order something and they reserved it for you till you paid, then they’d hold it for two weeks, then one week, then stopped reserving items for you all together...........going forward in true QVC style

 

[donna255]

That is why we loved cheque payment on here. Waited to see what the reviews were like before sending the cheque. Then just cancelled if word said the item was crap.

 

[loveallthingsitalian]

I have always paid by credit card but vaguely remember talk of holding cheques, I think it might have started to be phased out by the time I started watching or perhaps I wasn’t interested enough to take notice.

 

[donna255]

I remember they wouldn't take my debit card back in the day, it was Electron and for some reason, QVC said no? So I had to pay by cheque which meant no easy pay which was a good thing.

The weird thing is on the Money Saving Site people asked how to get an Electron one as if you were paying certain things like travel tickets you did not get a surcharge. Of course, I was moved to a Visa one years back so no problems with QVC after that.

A young girl arrived into work yesterday with a head full of curls like AH after a Dyson session. She said that she had seen a thing on SM (possibly Tik Tok?) which showed how to wrap your hair overnight with a dressing gown cord. It made me think of the Victorians doing their hair with rags! However she has lovely thick long hair and looked pretty good! Eat your heart out James Dyson

 

[candycane]

Curls are no problem for me, they are there on my head, bouncing around like a jelly on a trampoline. Problem is, they make me look like I'm 90 so they have to be ironed out. Flat. Every day

There might be a few here who remember in the late 60’s ironing hair on a ironing board with an actual iron. I had a few near misses when the sheet of brown paper which was supposed to protect your hair slipped . It probably was easier if you had someone to do the ironing bit whilst you crouched over the ironing board.

I see the dreaded Beauty Awards are back. Of course, you can only vote for what QVC wants you to.

Joop Homme is there, well it was released in 1989!

I did vote but skipped a number of categories as I have never used or did not like any in the list.
