@Kachina624    !!!!   Yeah, I learned that when I was working at a "brand name resort".   NEVER threaten a hotel employee.   You end up with two security guards in your suite, followed by the police, and get evicted...(no refund.)      di

Re: Guests must be shown respect!

When I have felt disrespected in a B&M store, and I have, I walked out.  Why would on line be any different?  I don't like a host then I don't watch.

 

There is nothing on QVC that is essential for my health and happiness that I can't get elsewhere easily if I really want it.  I can shop QVC without turning the TV on or even looking at videos if I choose.  

 

Life is to short to put up with such nonsense and frustration, I go elsewhere. It works for me.

@mspatmac Agree.  I used to watch QVC regularly but no longer.  Plenty of other places to shop with better and more reasonably priced items.  I sometimes wonder if some of the hosts that left suspected that changes were coming to QVC and chose to leave.

@kaydee50  - Many of the hosts that left - was not by their own choice.  They were let go.

  • Welcome.  I agree.  This is a convenient way to voice concerns and share accolades when appropriate.  

This particular concern is ubiquitous on these forums so you are certainly not alone in your opinion.  Sadly it has gotten worse this past year and I see no relief in sight

Re: Guests must be shown respect!

No. Because not every host acts like Jane Tracy. She never allows anyone else to speak and her comments are all her same personal stories about her daughters’ in theater, their ballet lessons, Jane’s encounters while walking down the street or shopping. I do not watch any of her shows which is too bad because I like Courtney’s presentations. Why do you pair a potentially good host with Jane? Is the management at QVC so blind to obnoxiousness?

@Happy 73  Welcome to the boards.  If QVC only realized how many sales are lost because of the rude Hosts.
