I was on here a while ago under the same username (Peggly) but I left the forum and had my profile deleted as part of taking a break.
I had written quite a few reviews, so I’m wondering if they are still there and how I would find them, or whether, as part of the account deletion, they were removed?
I’d like to be eligible for testers, but I’d also just like to read through the reviews I’d written as well. All good either way.
Hi @peggly , it depends what you requested when you asked for your account to be deleted. From the guide:
It is possible to delete your forum account, your reviews, and your shopping account separately. When requesting an account deletion please be clear which you would like to be removed (eg Forum only, Forum and Reviews, or all three).
If you requested a forum only deletion, then your reviews will still be there. Since the shopping site revamp a few years ago, though, we no longer have a review profile so the only way to see them is to look for them on the shopping site on the specific product pages.
@Peitho Thanks very much for the info and reply.
to be honest, I can’t remember what I requested for the account deletion, so I’ll have to go see if any of my reviews are still there if I can remember which products I reviewed.
Hopefully I’m on my way to becoming a tester!. I complete reviews for my partner and I - as orders placed through my account usually.
I’ve done some emails through the email request for a review. Read a few comments that say will show as “verified customer” but I assume these can be linked to my community forum for the eligibility for testing?
Thanks & happy to be here amongst likeminded people.
As long as your shopping email is the same as your forum email, yes, they will show together for Brenna
When did you recieve the tester? The email with a link to review can come through about a week later so if you’ve only just recieved the tester don’t panic yet.
If it is a secret tester item you get sent a link from Brenna.
If it’s a regular tester item then you can go directly to the item page and when it says user name just add your forum name of it is also in your order history and you can write a review be going through that.
Hey @Lovehoney_Brenna can I just check my review came through last night please? It’s the one for the super secret tester I haven’t had the normal verify your review email, so thought I’d check thanks x
I enjoy every time I see someone brand new to this forum and their first post is along the lines of ‘I want to be a tester / give me free stuff’.
It’s the main reason I follow this post.
