Birchbox April 2014 - SPOILERS

Ack! I just realized I was sent a new credit card and I didn't update it with Birchbox!!!

Ack! I just realized I was sent a new credit card and I didn't update it with Birchbox!!!

i did that yesterday, capital one sent me a new card as a precaution from the Target thing.. I was like WHEW, just in time.

Birchbox has just been throwing points at me. An order I placed has been delayed so they are giving me 100 points. I got a shipping notice today for some of my items so does that mean just one item is delayed?

They seem to be "messing up" often lately. My welcome box from my gift sub wasn't showing so I asked them to make it so I could review my products. She did, but it was the wrong box. I emailed her again and said "I can't review items I don't have." and she said "Oops we sent you the wrong box. We will send you another box, but it might be a different box than is showing." so I have no idea what is coming... but I ended up with two boxes (and double the points because I ran and reviewed the first box)... but it's been a lot of contacting BB the past two months.

I got a new card today, and updated Birchbox, Ipsy and Sample Society as quickly as possible.

I have been waiting for a new LE Box!! The last one wasn't my thing, and I'm totally ready to spoil my mom since mother's day and her birthday are only a week apart. I've got points burning a hole in my pocket, too!

I have the same issue.. I know they make caffeine patches so it probably can be absorbed but if the concentration is low it probably would not affect us..

I have been using the eye cream with no issues. Thankfully!

I just went and checked the email I used for one of my boxes to see if there was one about the Cynthia Rowley eyeliner and sure enough it was there and it was well past the two day limit.  Do you think I will still get the eyeliner, but it would just be ramdomly chosen for me or do you think I missed out on it all together?

Please excuse the awful in the car selfie, but speaking of eyeliners....years ago Clinque had an eyeliner that was periwinkle in color called blue-violet. They inexplicably discontinued it, and I've been searching for years for a similar color. On a lark, since y'all had been talking nonstop about fun colored eyeliners for spring, I ordered the Sumita Nila (sky blue). It came last night, and it's so close to the Clinique color. I'm loving it for spring/summer.

Same thing happened to me but instead of sending me another box, the gal asked me what was in my welcome box and updated the site accordingly.

That is what I wanted them to do. I wasn't asking for points or a new box. I simply wanted to make sure I didn't get repeat products or miss out on good ones (because what I was SUPPOSED to get... I actually wanted!) because of the wrong box showing. Instead I am getting an entire new box. Whatever I guess. The customer service is always great to me, but I wonder what is behind the sudden influx of mistakes.

That's what I like... I don't have to add more stuff to get free shipping & I don't have to choose between free shipping & another promo code.


Me too! I think it's nice, and I didn't do anything extra to earn this VIP thing... It's just an added perk to a subscription/website that I already love as it is! I did get an email about the Aces on my other account but I'm not actually an Ace on that account, it was just like an FYI email. On my main account I'm an Ace and if I'm reading right, that is good until the end of next year!? Someone correct me if I'm wrong here. That is a pretty long time.

I wonder if we'll get Color Club again?? http://www.birchbox.com/shop/nails/color-club-safari-garden Isn't this a new collection? It's a new logo too.  I would loooove the green or purple!  I googled swatches and they're gorgeous.

That's the first Color Club collection I've seen on Birchbox where I actually want all the colors. Very pretty!

I like the blue and purple polishes of that collection!

I had the same issue. I knew they would offer a replacement box sometimes, so I specifically said here's what I got, please change it to these items. With all the shipping issues, another box sounded like too much trouble.

That is an awesome color. Looks great!
