Grattan

I recently opened an account with Grattan as I wanted to buy a pair of velvet curtains.

I also ordered some Adidas trousers, however, when they came they were too short so I arranged for them to be returned by their courier.

Thursday 31st July - waited in all day, courier never turned up

Rang Grattan and arranged another collection

Wednesay 6 August - OH waited in all day, courier never turned up

Rang them again, arranged another collection

Monday 11 August - OH waited in all day, courier never turned up

Got bill yesterday - 20% discount for first order not taken off, in addition I ordered throough Quidco but nothing showing!

I can't believe how useless they are. I don't think I will be ordering anything else! :mad:

    OK, update - rang them on Tuesday and put in a complaint. They re-arranged collection for yesterday - OH waited in all day and nobody turned up!

    What can I do to make them come and collect my parcel?

    write a letter to them, detailing it.

    can you not go to the post office to return it with a pre-paid envelope?
    Remember the time he ate my goldfish? And you lied and said I never had goldfish. Then why did I have the bowl Bart? Why did I have the bowl?
  • Geri,

    What sort of Adidas trousers were they? Also, do you like the smell of a new catalogue?

    Nope has to go via courier, the invoices no longer have prepaid labels.

    Can you not just ring up the courier yourself, i pressume it will be a self employed person from Parcelnet collecting/delivering.
