“Is anyone going to review the quality of the wine?!”

Fantastic Wine :)
It annoys me that all the reviews on here are basically by people who were expecting wine for free! Well, the world doesn't work like that, especially the world revolving around groupon. With any offer, everyone knows that you're probably signed up to go on to some kind of membership. Amazon Prime, etc, etc.
I join Virgin wines because I had a £40 voucher, and yes, I was signed up to a rolling contract, which I immediately cancelled.
I was then contacted by email by someone who said obviously "we're sorry to see you leave the Discovery Club, but we know it's not for everyone"
Then proceeded to explain the Wine Bank scheme, where you pay in however much you want each month into an account, they then add 20% to that for free, bargain! then you buy wine whenever you want.
This is one of the best wine clubs about, the customer service in my opinion is fantastic, and I feel sorry for them having to deal with morons who can't read what they're signing up to.
To reiterate where I began, every wine I've had from here has been a cut above similarly priced supermarket plonk, yeah there aren't any £4.99 bottles, but if you want nasty cheap wine, I hear Adsa do 3 bottles for a tenner!!

I have and accepted having every 3 months re orders HOWEVER I did not expect a crate to turn up unsolicited, without any choice of wines OR to just turn up when we was on holiday !!

That is wrong and could have been illegal as my grandson was only 15 UNDER 18 !! and was looking after our home with our son whilst we was on holiday, thankfully he refused to accept the crate.

No choice and a hefty bill with wines selected which Virgin Wines believed I might want.

THAT IS WRONG END OF!!!
