Should my enrollment package be taking this long?
 
I haven't used CH for a while now and don't know what their standards are, but I enrolled in November and got my welcome to the club email on Nov. 11. It seems like a really long time to not have received anything. Should I be worried and contact them, or do they just ship really slow?

I usually get mine about a week after the welcome e-mail. I'd probably contact them.

If you used an enrollment code that didn't require a credit card number, I'm afraid your enrollment never went thru. I signed up twice that way, both times received the acknowledgment email, but never received the enrollment package. Finally signed up using one of the codes that required a credit card number, did not get the acknowledment email but did get my enrollment package a week later.

Dr. Henry Jones, Jr. 12-19-05 09:37 AM

well my card has been charged so I hope it went through

Dr. Henry Jones, Jr. 12-19-05 09:40 AM

I also have been getting member emails and shit

Nov 11 is a long time. I signed up a couple weeks ago and received my enrollment package last week. I think your package may have been mis-delivered or stolen.

i signed on Dec. 6 on the phone. Received my enrollment package on Dec. 17 (11 days after I signed up). You should definitely contact Columbia House and find the status of your package. Sometimes the packages are mailed to the wrong address (other members here have reported receiving wrong packages). Maybe your order went to the wrong address.

That's their usual canned response. Try e-mailing them at [email protected] . I've always had good luck when I e-mailed them at this address.:)

With all the Christmas media mail out there, it just may be abnormally super - slow .

I placed on order on 12/11 and got the DVDs yesterday...yes, on a Sunday! Since when does USPS deliver on Sundays?? They weren't left there...the USPS guy came to my door...

I don't think you can get the status of enrollments via the account page online.

Well this is odd, I signed up 11/28. This was the thrid time trying online in three months. After a week or so nothing. I was thinking I will just try phone enrollment in Jan. Today I get the email saying my enrollment is on the way. I have never had one take more than a week to ten days.

Dr. Henry Jones, Jr. 12-24-05 01:55 PM

received the re-sent enrollment package today. CH's customer service gets a big :thumbsup: from me

Legolas 12-26-05 09:46 PM

Good thing that was relatively hassle-free for you. Usually the package is either never shipped in the first place or stolen if it hasn't arrived for that long.
