I'd love to know whose idea it was re live streaming

....popping up constantly in the corner of the screen when customers are supposed to be trying to shop?

 

I 'X' out those pop-ups (even though I use a pop-up blocker) up to 10 times while trying to shop, loosing my place and my thoughts of why I was interested in the items to begin with.

 

In my personal opinion, if someone WANTS to watch those live streams, they're well advertised here, they'll find them.

 

Shoving it down my throat, will not make me watch any of them. Just the opposite.

 

All it does is make me give up and shop other sites where I don't feel harassed by live stream pop-ups.

 

More money out of QVC's pockets! Saving a lot at other places too!

I think it's an excellent function to see additional products without closing out the window I'm currently using. If there's something I'm not interested in, if it's a type of product I don't buy, I don't find it a hardship to get rid of it. It's easy enough to close it. It only takes one click.

As I said in my original post, I've clicked it off up 10 times, TEN.

 

The other day it was David Venable talking about something and I don't dislike David at all.

 

Today it was some older lady digging around in Philosophy products.

 

Most of the time these people are just talking not presenting a product. Since I keep my laptop on mute for Q videos, I have no idea what any of them are saying.

 

And I don't really care, as I said, I'll just shop elsewhere.

I hate getting e mails reminding me to buy something I've already purchased. I also don't like ones telling me I forgot someone when i just clicked on it to browse, it makes me not want to shop. 
              🙄 😬 😡

I also find the pop-ups on the right side of our screens annoying that come up when we're looking at an item, telling us that we better hurry and get it basically, and buy the particular item that we're looking at because x number of shoppers already bought the item and it's going fast. 

 

I think that we should get some credit for being allowed to look, and then being able to decide whether or not to purchase something.

All of the site's pop-ups are incredibly annoying and distracting, but the streaming one takes the cake.

I completely agree with every word you said. Sometimes it feels like "whack a mole" trying to banish these blasted pop-ups at every turn. They most definitely hinder and annoy me when I'm trying to shop.The live streams are the worst...I'd really like to slap them right off the page!

It only takes one click but it comes right back, over and over.
