Your subscription will only auto renew if you purchased Flash shipping on or after January 13, 2016. So if you purchased Flash shipping before that date, your Flash shipping will just expire and not auto renew. This is also stated in the terms and conditions for Flash shipping on the Sephora website under "membership auto renewal" (http://www.sephora.com/flash-terms-conditions)Winniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17579452830858628217noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-923437194678664102.post-33237658247115756002016-03-09T21:00:59.324-08:002016-03-09T21:00:59.324-08:00I completely agree, the nearest Ulta is at least 3...I completely agree, the nearest Ulta is at least 30 min away and I never buy anything from them online because you have to pay for shipping and then it takes forever.

When I go to Sephora.com, where it used to say "Flash Shipping," it now says "Join Flash." So I think it depends on when you originally signed up. I'm going to re-enroll before my next order though.

THIS time, when I signed up, I was prompted to agree to auto-renew. I'm guessing most people who jumped on board in early 2015 do not have to worry about being auto-renewed per their original agreement.

I had my last warning email last night that I was expiring today. I happened to place an order last night and it automatically reflected the Flash shipping option. Now when I put something in the cart and pretend to check out, it says I'm X dollars away from free shipping, and if I proceed with checking out a little further, it doesn't show Flash option on Delivery options screen (this is via mobile app on iphone).<br /><br />I think since I've placed two orders recently, I will just wait til my next order and add it then, so my year will start at that time. It doesn't seem to be such a hidden secret anymore...so hopefully that wouldn't be an issue to do it that way.Arathaelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12116738513029975882noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-923437194678664102.post-30081658947117533412016-03-09T11:36:49.399-08:002016-03-09T11:36:49.399-08:00I think you're right that auto renewal is new....I think you're right that auto renewal is new.... This Flash FAQs page: http://www.sephora.com/faqs-flash?mediaId=18600065 describes it as:<br /><br />Sephora FLASH FAQs<br /><br />SEPHORA FLASH IS A NON-REFUNDABLE SUBSCRIPTION SERVICE THAT AUTOMATICALLY RENEWS AT THE END OF EVERY 12 MONTH SUBSCRIPTION PERIOD UNLESS YOU CANCEL.<br /><br /><br />Do I have to renew my membership every year?<br /><br />If you register for Flash on or after January 13, 2016, your membership automatically renews at the end of 12 months from your registration date (at the then current rate) unless you notify us before your renewal date that you wish to cancel. You can cancel your auto-renewal by calling 1-877-SEPHORA, by sending an email to customerservice@sephora.com or by going to the My Account page.<br /><br />Purchases of Sephora FLASH paid for by Apple Pay, Gift Card or Store Credit are not subject to auto-renewal and your subscription will end on the first anniversary of your subscription.<br /><br /><br />So those of us who enrolled before that date apparently have to manually re-enroll, then we'd be auto-renewed going forward. I think they think they are being clear, but the email had conflicting information, and it'd be nice if the FAQ also stated clearly that if you were enrolled before that date you would have to manually re-enroll since it would expire, etc etc. Since obviously we are all getting confused.Arathaelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12116738513029975882noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-923437194678664102.post-57573618482793179962016-03-09T10:38:22.291-08:002016-03-09T10:38:22.291-08:00Excellent info and perfect timing since mines expi...Excellent info and perfect timing since mines expires today.Kicahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13137270076963807030noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-923437194678664102.post-20877019292299305652016-03-09T10:27:34.540-08:002016-03-09T10:27:34.540-08:00Mine was not auto renewed either nor did I get a r...Mine was not auto renewed either nor did I get a reminder!

If you do not wish to renew your subscription, you must cancel on or before your Renewal Date." Then it goes on about how to cancel, getting these emails 30 days in advance, etc. I don't know why they are providing conflicting information in the email, suggesting you need to renew, then stating it will auto renew and you are responsible for canceling.Arathaelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12116738513029975882noreply@blogger.com
