Hey all
I have been doing SW since April and have bought 3 lots of the 6week countdowns during this time (from 2 separate consulants as I changed groups).
I am week 4 of 6 this week, and told my consultant that I would be taking a holiday next week as I am moving house. She told me holidays are not allowed when you are on countdowns unless they are pre-booked in advance of purchase of countdown!! Sick is also not allowed (unless in extreme cases).
I think this is highly unfair, as what happens if something comes up where you genuinely need holiday (such as moving house - I only found out I was moving 2wks ago, or last minute holiday, or you have to go away with work?).
I explained to her that I had never ever been told this before, and lucky the lady who does the cash who sold me the countdown said she had never heard of it either. Because of this I was allowed to take my holiday.
My consultant showed me the booklet the vouchers come in and it does mention this on the T&C's there but again I've never had this booklet as the vouchers take ages to come in! And she keeps them!
Also she said that if you are on countdown and need to WI elsewhere (as I do often, due to work) then you should pay for that week as it's unfair for the consultant whose class you are at as they will not get any money! And then you should speak to your consultant who will arrange to extend your countdown!
It all seems really crazy to me and has really put me off buying a new one. But then why shouldn't I be able to take advantage of the offer?
Sorry for the long post but I'm rather annoyed!
