Next VIP slots...anyone got one yet?

I'm desperate to bag a good slot this season, all 3 of my DC's quite desperately need kitting out lol!

I heard heard the sale starts in shops on Saturday so I thought the VIP invites would be out by now but I've not had one so I'm worrying that I've not got one this time for some reason!

Anyone else got one yet?! X

Not me and I've done lots of full-price Next shopping this season so would expect one.

Tryingtodoitall · 09/07/2017 07:57

Maybe they'll come out in the morning - I was just scanning through my previous invites and most of them have been on a Monday morning

I've never had one and buy almost exclusively next for my children!

CatsCatsCats11 · 09/07/2017 08:00

I don't shop much in next very rarely full price and got offered a VIP slot if I made a purchase on a new credit account, thought it was a bit naughty of them to be honest.

www.next.co.uk/vipsale/

Just followed this link, it let me log in but then said the area was only for some customers. Perhaps I've not made the grade this time Grin

Me neither and I always get one!

Hulashaker · 09/07/2017 08:20

The sale is supposed to start on 15th so I'm hoping to get an email tomorrow with my slot - might cry if not

dementedpixie · 09/07/2017 08:21

It's normally shite anyway and there's never anything left that I woukd buy

Tryingtodoitall · 09/07/2017 08:23

Hulashaker I'll cry with you lol

Not heard anything yet either; I usually get a text or email - fingers crossed!

LightastheBreeze · 09/07/2017 09:42

I doubt I will get one, I mainly buy from clearance and return loads, they like you to buy from the new collection and not return much. I will probably look at clearance in a couple of weeks when stuff gets returned, I usually get more that way than a VIP slot.

4forksake · 09/07/2017 09:56

I had an email from next this week saying you could get a VIP slot if you signed up for their next credit. Don't know if you were guaranteed a slot if you go for credit but it might be worth you phoning up to ask about if you think you'd pass the credit check. I'm assuming you can pay anything off after purchase.

BuntyCollocks · 09/07/2017 13:37

The sale slots won't be released until tomorrow or Tuesday, the actual online sale will be Thursday for VIP slot holders, so no need to panic yet. I'm a veteran at this! 😂

They're available now......got mine.

I like the homeware & kids stuff.

Pommes · 10/07/2017 11:22

I just got my invitation too.

Talisin · 10/07/2017 11:33

Didn't recieve the email yet but logged into my account and bagged a 5pm slot on Wednesday.

Teatowelfairy · 10/07/2017 11:39

I've just had my email. Booked a slot Wednesday at 5pm.

yellowDahlia · 10/07/2017 12:31

I've got mine booked too - and checked the preview to find that the jacket I bought last week is LESS than half price - aaaagh. I've clipped the tag and worn it a couple of times too :(

It's this one if anyone's interested... oversized denim jacket

It's fab - really soft and comfy and goes with loads. I was willing to pay £40 cos I liked it so much, but I'd rather pay £16!!

imjessie · 10/07/2017 12:33

I've got one

MoreProseccoNow · 12/07/2017 17:41

Am seriously unimpressed! Checked in on time, filled my basket & went to check out -only for the site to freeze & I lost all the items in my bag.

After logging back in & trying again several times, most of the items were sold out, so I gave up.

Really frustrating; never had this problem before.

My bank balance will be happier though!

muffinheaven · 12/07/2017 17:45

I've had problems too. It kept changing the store delivery to stores miles away so I opted for home delivery only for it to go through with my email address but my order is going to Mrs Singh in South Shields which is hundreds of miles away from me Confused Not to mention a breach of confidentiality surely as I've been given another customers details. Not happy here !!

MoreProseccoNow · 12/07/2017 17:50

Ah, so not just me then. My order was going to Burton-on-Trent at some point - I'm in Scotland.

So it looks like an early start for me on Saturday morning for the in-store sale. Haven't braved it for years. Urgh.

Talisin · 12/07/2017 17:57

Seems to be happening to a lot of people, judging by twitter. I kept getting logged out and it wouldn't let me deliver to store but I did eventually manage to get a home delivery order through and it does seem to be coming to the correct address so fingers crossed!

MoreProseccoNow · 12/07/2017 18:16

I've just had a text from next, apologising & saying that store delivery cannot be selected, only home delivery & they will refund charges. If only I'd actually managed to buy the items in my bag...
