Advantages Easy, quick delivery, easy payment plans

Disadvantages Not quite the same as shopping!

I'm not a big fan of internet shopping, mainly because, i am 5'1 and a size 6, and therefore not a lot of shops cater. I have always experimented with different size clothes so that i can get the best of the fashion and I have come to the conclusion that i can get away with a size 8. This doesnt however, stop one problem. All trousers are way too long, and too wide around my legs.
These problems have no doubt led me into believing that I have to spend hours searching round all the shops to find something that fits..and that i actually like!!!

I feel dreadful in saying this but the only reason i made an account with littlewoods, was because i really wanted a nice outfit, i was broke for a few weeks and i knew that littlewoods offer a small credit acount to their customers.

At first, i knew this was a bad idea, but then i read into their terms and conditions and realised that they have very big interest free periods, and payments can be made at any paypoints, or online or over the phone.
So i convinced myself into setting up an account.

The process was simple, simply put in your name, address, a few minor personal details, and thats it your set up.
They then send you an email which says if you have been approved for a credit account. They approved me for 100 pounds which is perfect, as it means i will never get myself into too much trouble, but if i really want something outside of this limit then i can use my debit card to pay for it.

Once i had registered i had a browse.
Its nice browsing through an internet catalogue, you can zoom into the pictures so that any detail on the items can be viewed properly.
You can also check availability easily on the internet which is a big advantage.
When making a purchase or a stock enquiry, you simply select the product, then the size you want or any other variable, and it will automatically tell you if the item is available.

SUPER COOL

Everything is put into a catagory (womens, mens, electrical etc) which make it easier to browse. and if there is something specific that you want to look for there is a search box.
The online catalogue has exacly the same as the paper catalogue.

A big advantage which i was totally impressed at is the customer service. I have experienced bad customer service from so many companies and it really makes contacting the customer service people tiresome.
However, i have had an account with littlewoods for over two months and i have made lots of enquiries, each time, the phone has been answered straight away, (although the staff were miserable) however when emailing i usually get a reply within the day or the next day.
They are really helpful.

The first thing i bought were a pair of jeans which were cheap anyway, but as it was my first order i got a 15 pound discount which made it so worthwhile i could not resist.!!
The jeans came in three different lengths which was perfect because it meant i could get the right fit and not have to spend extra money on getting them taken up.
The fit was perfect and i love the jeans.
