GlossyBox Canada is CLOSED FOR BUSINESS ***UPDATED WITH CONFIRMATION FROM GLOSSYBOX***

so for the past month subscribers have been wonder what is going on with GlossyBox . They hadn't taken out any payments or taken the Glossy Dots we had redeemed for a free box. I emailed a number of times and got the response that it was a billing error and that they were working hard on trying to get it fixed and that the boxes would be sent out late and prolly not until June. well it's now May 31st and we got some very interesting news from Lisa Kisber the spokesperson from Glossy saying that

 
please note that Glossybox Canada has been taken over by Glossybox USA - please direct your questions to them.


so I decided to contact GlossyBox USA Via Facebook and got some conflicting responses saying they are not taking over any part of GlossyBox Canada.

I then called the toll free number from GlossyBox USA and was told this " GlossyBox Canada is no longer in operation they are 100% closed down and all peopled owed money will be issued a refund soon"


so there you go GlossyBox is no more ..........I was a Glossy Ambassador since the beginning of the program and I am not out of more then 3 months worth of dot's plus any dot's I had earned since January ..The last time they updated the Ambassadors. I feel as if Glossy International should be picking up the tab for anyone who is left with dots as people in a sense earned and paid for these one way or another.

***UPDATE*** at least they were nice enough to disable the feature to sign up for a subscription , and apparently GlossyBox USA has bought up all of GlossyBox Canada's product stock..

I think people would be okay with the fact that they had to shut down, but it's the dishonesty and the not keeping their subscribers in the loop and saying it was a billy error when it really wasn't People were already very sensitive when it happened about two/three months ago with Canadian Beauty sub GLYMM . Glymm kept reassuring people that everything was going to be okay and that the services was happening when it really wasn't . and It wasn't until someone went to the glymm offices to see a worker packing up people knew. Glossy why would you do this to your loyal subscribers and fans we have stuck with you through some of your worst times and to what be treated like nothing... I really hope that Glossy USA or the CEO will offer some sort of compensation to the Canadian Glossy members who are out the hundreds/Thousands of points we had earned for referring people to your company.

***UPDATE***GlossyBox Canada has now Finally sent out emails to the subscribers to inform them that they are no longer a company...

    1. I agree, Ashley. I had accumulated thousands of GlossyDots and was planning on using them for something special. I hope that the company at least honors the GlossyDots and gives us something for all of the money and time spent.

    2. I too am out of thousands of dots I sincerely hope they do something to accommodate us . Because if they don't that would look really bad for GlossyBox as a whole not just Canada.

  4. Ashley , I hope so too... we all worked so very hard at what we had accomplished with GlossyBox.. I think they owe it to us to at least honor our dots in some form.. I don't care if it's a big box with some goodies but they need to do it some how to make things right.
