Following the war: International websites announced a change in the site's activity, which enraged consumers. For example, Shine announced its engagement with Israeli influencers and the discontinuation of free shipping, while offering Palestinian flags on the site.
Now: The network is furious with the British website Asus, because while during the November holidays while all countries do receive discounts, Israel is the only one that does not receive discounts during this period. What added fuel to the fire is the fact that on the site you can choose the Palestine option and now get a 25% discount. The IL code, which eliminates VAT in Israel, works, but the November deals do not.
Fashion blogger Yuval Miara wrote on her Instagram account: "Everyone knows about it that her name is 7.10, there was no code in Asos, yes?
Including the 11.11 which everyone and us had nothing and we checked it out. And ready for the peak? Please note Israel, there is no discount. Then change to Palestine, there is a 25% discount. Put Israel in the shipment, the code is canceled."

Yuval Miara told Israel Hayom, "This is the first time that in Israel you don't get a discount on Asos during the November holidays. On Chinese Singles' Day in previous years, there was a discount of 22-25% and now Israel is an exception.
In Palestine, on the other hand, they received a 25% discount on the entire site, and today they get a 25% discount on dresses and skirts. We don't even have an ad for Sale in Israel. As for Palestine, it is not at all clear what it means and where it was sent.
I wrote to Asos last night and their answer was that due to the situation in Israel there is a problem with deliveries and now there are no codes. They wrote that it was temporary and that it was under review. In addition, a number of girls wrote to them in Palestine, no situation? No war? And they didn't answer that."
Asked what she thought was behind it, she replied: "I think there's some kind of mess with the deliveries. It was on all sorts of sites, but it was solved. They ship even if it takes a few more days. There are deliveries, it's solvable and it can arrive. It seems that something is happening beyond. You can offer discounts and clearly state that delivery times can be longer than usual. Sites do that. They chose not to have any discounts at all.
I made an order from the Rav's Islands, for example, which included a lot of discounts. It should be noted that Asos often offers Israelis discounts. As of 7.10 there was no operation. This whole mess started with the fact that in October there was no discount at all. Such a dialogue has begun that later on the November operations will probably come, and November has arrived, and there are no discounts."
