I agree. I called and they said my secondone which I had created for the sole purpose of getting a TV box was not on the list to get one. Waaa?? So she put me on the list while I was on the phone. Ugh what a hassle

I feel like it would have been easier to give people to option to order both under the same account.

If you made a second account, you STILL have to get the opt in email even if you used the link. weird I know. I cancelled the second account, got a refund and opted in for my original account.
Woah, that makes me so mad. They stated in the e-mail itself that if you use that link to make a new account that you will automatically get a Teen Vogue box, so on my regular account i opted out of the TV box because I thought I'd be getting the TV one with my 2nd account(that created using the Teen Vogue link).

 
I opened a 2nd Birchbox account on Fri. 2/17.  Not because I wanted the TV box, but I just really love Birchbox, I'm greedy, and wanted 2 Birchboxes.  I recieved the Teen Vogue email for my 1st account and I opted in - I cant pass up a chance at Essie and Keratase!  I hope my 2nd box is a regular Birchbox and not a Teen Vogue.  I would like one of each!

I gave my sister Birchbox on 2/17 as well, and she recieved her Birchbox today.  I cant wait to hear how she likes it!

They aren't open after 5pm, so I just e-mailed them because I want an answer ASAP. :p /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" /> I called and spoke to someone from Birchbox and she even HERSELF told me that the way I could get 2 boxes was to sign up for a 2nd account using the link from the e-mail they sent me.

I'll keep you posted with the information I get.

 
Ugh! I set up a second account for the sole reason of getting the TV box. I just went back through the email I got and changed my status. I think I'm going to call them tomorrow to make sure my email is on the list.

great thanks!! I'll give them a call if I have to, but I work until 5 and I don't think my boss will look too fondly on me calling about my beauty subs at work lol.

 
I so would like to make a second account for a regular box and opt in for the TeenVogue box, but there's a waiting list at the moment... :( /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

It sounds like some people had no problem signing up for a second account while others had to wait 3-4 weeks.  Is this just random luck to get in or had you guys who just opened a new account been on the waiting list as well for a while?

I had put my name on the teen vogue birchbox waiting list the day it was posted....so a few weeks.

 
I put myself on the regular BB waiting list about 3 weeks ago and just tonight was able to sign up. I put myself on the Teen Vogue BB waiting list maybe 2 weeks ago and still haven't gotten an email about it. Not sure what the rhyme or reason is.

I had been on the waiting list for a while, but not 3 or 4 weeks.  I think it might have been more like 2 weeks.

I was on the waiting list for 3-4 weeks, then one of my friends signed up one week, and one the next, and the one that signed up later got the "your wait is over" email 2 days before the other girl. Who knows?

 
I decided I was so disappointed by my birch-box last month that I would go ahead and try the different one in hopes it will be better. the only thing is that we won't be able to guess what will be in them as easy this time.... 

 
I hope at least one of my boxes is a teen vogue box, if it turns out both are, I will just sell one or trade it

 
I chose the Teen Vogue box... I was just thinking the other day how I wish Birchbox had Essie nail polish samples because I only have two Essie topcoats and no actual polishes! I know they make mini sizes, there is a set of 2 mini's you can get at Walgreen's for $9. Hopefully it is the actual nail polish.
 
I FINALLY got my original Birchbox invitation!  The first invitation I got was last week because it was for the Teen Vogue box.  I didn't realize I would still be getting my original invitation from when I signed up 2 weeks ago before I knew about the TV box...I actually had to delete that e-mail right away otherwise I knew I would be tempted to get a second subscription! 

 
Wow this is so bogus!!! I opted out on my normal account because I thought the TV linked account was a done deal. I'll be calling tomorrow before I go to work voicing my concerns. 

Not cool birchbox, not cool.
