As far as I am aware you spend what you like, cases of wine start from as little as £60 (probably cost them about £30), but beware once you sign up they will inundate you with sales literature. Its a loss leader, if only 50% of those who sign up go on to buy more, they make a profit Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jim Posted November 14, 2007 Share Posted November 14, 2007 whats the catch? The Winebank works by debiting you £20 per month, then crediting your account with £20 every 3 months. Once you have signed up and started paying, you can order whenever you want. I got a similar initial offer a couple of years ago, and bought a very cheap case of wine. I used to order fairly regularly from Virgin, but have found lately that prices in the likes of Tesco or Lathwaites are often equally competitive and I don't have to buy a whole case at a time (which is not so good if you discover you're not too keen on a particular wine and you have three or four bottles to get rid of). Oh, and as others have said, they deluge you with emails and offers forever more. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you then buy a case for £59.99 plus £5.99 p&P you are getting 12 bottles of wines for £16 which aint bad imho...... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
