VIP discount code... did anyone get it to work?

rissajaneen — Sun, 23 May 2021 03:01:03 GMT

I have put together my cart and tried to apply the vip code but it said I was not eligible. Did anyone get this to work? My order came to $79 without taxes or shipping, so I have no clue why it would not go through. The Details say it should be 10 off a $75 order. Did this work for anyone else? Can you not use it on clearance items?

Where did you get the code? If it didn't come directly to you, it might only work for the person who received it.

It's only for NEW customers if this is what you're talking about:

When I sign into qvc there is a banner across the top of the page that says "love qvc?" And then gives the code VIP to use to get $10 off a $75 order. I do not see that it is only for new customers in the fine print. Hsn does discount codes all the time but I had never seen one before on qvc.

@rms1954 If this code is just for new customers, isn't that discrimination? IMO, QVC should offer these types of codes to the faithful customers who have kept them going all these years.

Sorry can't help you then. I don't see what you're seeing.

Not discrimination at all. Many online retailers offer the same type of thing just to get new customers. IMO it's not MY place to tell QVC what they should offer.

HSN and QVC obviously offer different things as they are run different.

@Love my grandkids OMG, I was joking about discrimination-- just couldn't think of a better word. Yes, some businesses use this tactic to attract new customers, while others offer discounts to new and the faithful to keep their business. JMO! Oh, there's no monsters under my bed, just dust bunnies.

When you posted your response you might have added "LOL just joking" so we would know you're not serious.

Usually, when HSN does this, the offer is only good if you are using your HSN card. Maybe that is what the issue was - did the OP use a Q card or another card? If she didn't use a Q card, it wasn't eligible?
