OK...we all know about how their web ecommerce system is logistically-challenged. And to be fair, if something is out of stock then they do contact you ...usually...only not always as I just received a smallish order No 1 and the despatch note tells me that two items are on back-order...but no-one told me prior to despatch. If I had known then I would have placed the order elsewhere. Now I incur an additional postage/carriage cost with supplier B.
Order No 2 from Rutlands...got a call yesterday to say one item won't be in until tomorrow or day after. Big tick. Not a problem. Only...while ringing up to complain about Order No 1 today, get asked had I been called about Order No 2...Yes, I say...one item is coming in today or tomorrow....no, they say....not until next week...
So, conclusion being that had I not happened to call in today to talk about Order 1 then I'd be none the wiser for Order 2. Order cancelled in toto.
Oh yes...logistical problem between their ecommerce system and their mail order computer systems means that my goods were getting sent to the wrong address despite my remonstrations and being told that 'it was just a one off'.
