I am so irritated I think it is time to break up with Anthro. The story is long so I don't want to get into it here but I did write about it over on <A HREF="http://fashionableyetfrugal.blogspot.com/" REL="nofollow">my blog</A>. Sorry for the hikjack but is is a long story. <BR/><BR/>On a related note, it was made halfway right, but only through persistence.jacquelynhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00155568099007397724noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1485264816406368669.post-87379649783998198502009-02-06T13:05:00.000-05:002009-02-06T13:05:00.000-05:00Rose - Hooray!

I know they had good sales results last quarter, but not as good as they had hoped, and that they like to position themselves as distinct and high-end. But, given how tough things are out there for retailers it is only a matter of time before retailers have to react even more aggressively.jacquelynhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00155568099007397724noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1485264816406368669.post-70161540929610767622009-02-04T10:22:00.000-05:002009-02-04T10:22:00.000-05:00It is totally worth a call to customer service if ...It is totally worth a call to customer service if you have not received the card. I had to call in to inquire, and they had me email a special address to get everything taken care of. The process takes a few days so patience is key but Anthro is not trying to deny this to anyone. They told me that I had no birthday associated with my account.Roxyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11952566006793231559noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1485264816406368669.post-13303264208953114812009-02-04T10:19:00.000-05:002009-02-04T10:19:00.000-05:00My birthday is this month too and I never rec'd a ...My birthday is this month too and I never rec'd a birthday discount!!

Luxe brands don't do discount codes (heck, a lot of them don't even do e-commerce because they think it's for the plebes). As this tough economy plays out I think we will see some more bending of those wills.roxyturtlehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02175313932217919783noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1485264816406368669.post-41081689521671580292009-02-04T08:22:00.000-05:002009-02-04T08:22:00.000-05:00The thing s, I think they could do a code.

Perhaps you are right and their system is not able to support this.<BR/><BR/>I plan to go up the hill to my local Anthro later this month, wish list in hand, and either find the items I want in store or have the SA find them for me at other stores.jacquelynhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00155568099007397724noreply@blogger.com
