Faulty item.
Went through relevant people to confirm faulty was told I could return it via Waitrose and get a refund, as they weren't currently able to replace it in the time I'd need it by.
Went to return it. Waitrose had to call JL to get returns order. JL said no. Spoke to JL explained it was set up their end. Got left on hold on the store on the stores ohone for over 20m before JL said apologised and said they'd made a cock up with the turns number on the system and issued a new one. Return item with as the requested original proof of purchase.
Told refunds take up to 14 days once it was all processed!
Baring in mind theyve already buffered the process up and I expressed my concern they said best to call and check item received.
I did on Monday they said not received but they'd check and to call Wednesday.
On Tuesday I had a email stating they could CONFIRM I HAD RETURNED THE ITEM on the 20th of April but that as of the 25th they'd still to acknowledged it as received to issue the refund.
I've just called this morning and they've said it's still not returned. Even though their email confirms they no it has been returned by their courier to the warehouse.
So the item is there. They no it's there but they expect customers to wait fourteen days for them to acknowledge it's there then go and ask accounts to issue a refund.
What happened to them being customer service focussed?
Am I really unreasonable to think if they acknowledge in writing they know the item is returned they should be able to refund it?
And I know, first world problem but it's nearly £200 and I need the cash to replace it.
