I ask because I'm in the 2nd situation, I resubscribed with the USWEEKLY code and a shipping date of Feb 1st, but I definitely don't want to receive another January 2014 on that account.

I've been told by bb you can only get 1 box per month. So it's impossible to get 2 jan boxes on the same account.

Perfect! That is just what I was hoping to hear. I tried asking BB customer service but their response wasn't really a reply to my question.
/emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" /> Turns out the USWEEKLY code was really a great deal for me this month.

I've never had Birchbox before, but decided to go ahead and try them out (I've had Ipsy for about 4 months). I used someone's referral link to sign up, so I skipped the waitlist, but I used the US Weekly code and got the points. It says I have a box shipping on February 4th... will this be a welcome box? the January box? or the February box? lol

I'm pretty sure (could be wrong) that the welcome boxes only come with gift subscriptions, so if your first box is shipping on the 4th, you MIGHT be getting a January box, and then the US weekly february box later on in the month with everyone else. It's been a bit confusing since it seems like anyone who signed up in late January is potentially getting a January box, which is not usually the case. I guess we'll all just have to wait and see! haha /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

I am so utterly confused with this whole US Weekly nonsense! I am a well educated woman and I consider myself fairly intelligent, but I swear this whole debacle has left me scratching my head. I referred myself (and got the 50 points), signed up with the US Weekly code and I too am so confused. I've been getting BB for well over a year and I don't remember such a confusing promo before, lol. I only signed up a third account to get the extra points. I intend to close it as soon as I have 200 points to gift my main account. The other confusion I have is that I can't figure out if I canceled my main account. My yearly sub was up for renewal and I want to go month to month until there is another promo. So I followed the link I got in my email, but I can't figure out if I opted out of the yearly sub or if I canceled it completely. It still says active on my account, but I also got a message that my sub was cancelled per my request. sigh...BB you're killing me!

I had opted out of auto renew then called to be placed on monthly since it still said active and wouldn't let me add a monthly sub

I am not going to lie. I feel so confused over this subscription. Maybe I signed up at a confusing time with the promo code, even though it didn't work, but I am so confused on what box I will get. Am I signed up to get the collab box? Or is that a Special Edition one you have to sign up for separately?

You should be signed up to get the collab box! /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" /> There is no alternative sign up for it as the collab box is the box that all subscribers should be receiving this February. Old subscribers will definitely receive it (this was in the fine print when the news first came out) whereas new subscribers, if they sign up "on time" before February 15th (whatever that means, most likely if you sign up before the 15th and the collab box is still in stock... which it should be...) will also receive the collab box.

so if you sign up with your referral link, instead of the usweekly link, will you not get the magazine subscription???
If you sign up with a referral link, you will still get the magazine subscription as long as you use the promo code. I recently referred myself, used the code, and just two days ago received the redemption code to get the US weekly subscription. It worked for me, so hopefully it will work for you as well.

No problem! /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" /> Hope it works out for you - if not, definitely email Birchbox CS to sort it out.

How long did it take to get the redemption code after placing the BB subscription order?

Sounds about right. I signed up last week and my ship date is Jan 31st, so I'm assuming I'm getting a January box, and then the Feb box with everyone else.
