To say I didn't receive this item??

[curiousgeorgie]

DH ordered a camera, a very pricey camera.. ( well, to me! I don't know about cameras, it's almost 1400 pounds. Annoying, but that's a whole other thread!)

Today I've been home all day, as DD1 doesn't have nursery, my plans fell through and DD2's rash looks horrific) No one knocked on my door.. No one rang the bell. I haven't hoovered or anything loud, and I have a dog who usually barks at both of these things.

I go outside to get my charger from the car and there is a box on my doorstep.

It's the camera.

Clearly unsigned for, no attempt even made.

I do live on a lovely street, but there is a school here so lots of foot traffic. Anyone could have taken it.

It's over a thousand pounds!!

I am very very tempted to tell them I didn't get it and just cancel my order...?

I will just point out that I was far less offended by this thread than I was when ds3 had a slice of a cake my friend baked for me, and asked if she could bake his birthday cake instead of me, this year. Now that was offensive!

IME unless it is a very small company, it won't care that it was 'delivered' like this nor will the courier company. Waste of time complaining really. Most companies don't give a shit about their customers these days.

Meh, keep it and tell them you have not received it. See what they say and you can tell them it turned up at a later date. At least that might put the wind up the courier company.

Yesterday I asked for cash back at Tesco customer services and the lady serving me almost threw me two £20 notes instead of two £10 notes. She then immediately called the next customer. She ignored me while I tried to get her attention and then when I was finally able to tell her that she had given me too much money and handed the extra £20 to her, she just sighed, turned away from me and carried on talking. No thank you. I actually wished I'd kept it and got her into the shit when they they came to do the cashing up!

We had a Sony Playstation ( at DH) delivered this way...

BeCook theneediestusernameintheworld I'm funny, it's okay, I don't need you to confirm it

Love your thread support though, amazing! Please see all other threads by me and feel free to keep them going!

Ha! ( totally drunk!) BeCool obviously, not be cook!

Brilliant! I can hardly type... Might be bedtime!
