Name labels did not arrive

So annoying.

I ordered name labels for 3 dc. Somehow my house number was not included in the address field, not sure how this happened as I am a keen online shopper and this has never happened to me before, plus I have ordered form the same company before.

So the labels were sent to the following address:

My name
Street name
Postcode

No house number.

Of course i didn't receive the envelope and the company have an attitude that it's none of their concern. as they have sent out the labels on 22 August.

I visited my local Royal Mail distribution center and was told that when the address is not complete mail will be sent back to sender. The company name was stated on the envelope.

So it looks like I lost £35.00 because a house number was not included.

AIBU to think that the company could be a little bit more helpful in locating the envelope and resolving g the issue rather than reiterating that the labels were sent out on 22 aug b first class mail?

So annoyed as i cannot at all afford to loose that much money. Sad

You've probably resolved this by now, can't be bothered to read 5 pages about name labels, but I ordered from easy2name and received them next day and they're great quality.

Have since realised a laundry pen is much simpler though. Get a pen!

Not woven labels Pizza. Hope you get your labels. Woven labels are supposed to be quite good actually.

All good now, I have given up on the labels, if the customer services person wants to be unfair and unhelpful than so be it, they have to live with their negative attitude. I won't be using said label company nor recommending it to anyone else.

I got a stamp from stamptastic this week. Seems great so far. I would probably get a two lined one next time so the text can be a bit larger.

I have so many iron on labels in the drawer that have never made it into a single item of clothing due to needing to get the iron out!! Lazy, me?

I've ironed on labels to everything....even socks Blush

But it's my first school year. Bet by year 6 it will be a sharpie Grin
