Yeah I believe in going to the source...because surely someone else has had to have heard this other than a couple MA's....as large as the company is and as many mouths as there are

I don't understand why it would just be the UK. Our recycling schemes have not recently changed (not that I'm aware of anyway) so I don't see why it'd be to do with that.
Oh well, I believe its a load of bollocks until I hear it direct from the source. *plans her b2m for tomorrow*

Whoah this thread gave me quite a scare!

B2M is one of the big motivators for me to buy more at a time MAC instead of spreading my purchases out further apart in time. This way I can easily get 6 empties and get a lippie! (We only have counters here, no freestanding store.) I like to gather my empties when an upcoming collection is coming out and I've been eyeing a certain one. But this still has me feeling a little iffy that I might just b2m what I have right now for something just in case.

I work for mac in the UK and last week our managers were told on an update that Mac will only be honouring back2mac for customers who come in for it and know about it already, but as ma's we will not be telling/promoting customers any more about this service as of now! But you will still be able to go in and get ur b2m if you ask about it. We just wont be promoting it anymore thats all x

I haven't heard anything of the sort. My manager just went to Update and I'm pretty sure she would have told us. I'll ask her this weekend anyway.

Now this makes sense...see how things can get twisted...Not Promoting and Not Permitting...totally two different things....

Thanks so much for the update!!!

It'll eventually be phased out. They're starting by not "promoting" it ..this is just the beginning, don't be fooled.

Missvirtue told me her MAC MU friend told her the same thing today ..B2M is too expensive, blah, blah, blah

Maybe they should make B2M just for Pro card holders then if we're costing them so much money.

I went to pick up my Sugersweet haul today and confirmed with a mua friend, that yes MAC are stopping B2M!

At first she was a bit shocked I had heard about it, as it is not supposed to be public knowledge, but then basically let me know that she will not be promoting B2M anymore and will only B2M for customers who ask about it for the time being! But even that will end, they just don't know when.

So I was advised to bring in all my empties as soon as possible (I had most of mine with me

and managed to pick up 6

I was personally told that although they will not promote it any longer, soon they wont be accepting B2M at all, they just didn't say when that will happen, and I got the impression that it'll be very soon!

That is exactly what the MA at my local counter told me today.

well I hate that for you guys...Hopefully it will be a long time before it happens here in the states....Maybe the s/h and all involved is very costly internationally...But we'll see...No word here yet
