[CLOSED] - 13/12/04 : Boots Hampers
Comments
-
Just in case anyone else is going to buy a hamper before Christmas, there is a code which gives you 250 extra Advantage card points.
This is for Flowers Plants and Hampers only :
FPHA62.
It was a leaflet supplied with my order so is for general use.
Hope this might help someone else out!!0 -
Ordered a couple last Wednesday morning, still says processing order on website and no money taken. So was absolutely convinced that they would be cancelled. 20 minutes ago, hampers!!
Strange strange system.....
Will have to see if the ones that are due to a different address tomorrow will turn up as they are still processing too!!0 -
Ordered 2 breakfast hampers at 11.26am last Wednesday and received email today saying
"Unfortunately, when your order reached the warehouse, the product was not available. As we can't guarantee when it will come
back into stock, we have had to cancel your order. You've not been charged."
Why has it took over a week to reply, I was banking on those hampers for pressies!!
>:( Give em a kick up the !!!!!! with my BOOTS!!!0 -
"When your order reached our warehouse the product wasn't available"
what what what!! what on earth sort of excuse is that.
I mean that's just amazing ineptitude
Where did it go? lol
maybe the warehouse staff are eating them..
If you order something online it shouldn't be a guessing exercise as to, when or if you will get your order.
I've ordered loads of stuff online over the years but this is the worst ever.
a/ customer service (eventually got through today to someone who was not at all nice and couldn't give me any info on delivery until she checked with the warehouse, which she "wouldn't be able to do that today." :-X
b/ no apparent awareness of what their stock levels are.(even when they are putting them up for sale on the website it would appear..) :-X
c/ no updating of order details on website for order tracking :-X
d/ pot luck if you get your order and that's just not acceptable. :-X
e/ they cancelled an order with me because "it went out of stock in our warehouse", even though they are over 100 for sale on the website and the order is still showing as being processed on website, and still arriving according to the operator today.
Arghhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
never again, Boots.

They cannot be allowed to get away with thisOld Faithful we roam the range together,
Old Faithful in any kind of weather,
When the round up days are over,
And the Boulevard’s white with clover,
For you old faithful pal of mine.
Giddy up old fella cos the moon is yellow tonight,
Giddy up old fella cos the moon is mellow and bright,
There’s a coyote crying at the moon above,
Carry me back to the one I love,
And you old faithful pal of mine.0 -

I spoke to Boots at length yesterday and they really have no idea what is happening anywhere!
Even though I made an order over a week ago they said it's proberbly been cancelled but they can't tell me for sure.
They might offer me some reward points as compensation. How many were others offered?
what a total waste of time! >:( >:( >:( >:( >:(No one puts baby in the corner.0 -
After a week of waiting for some info from Boots (no email replies, order apparently still being processed)
my large hamper and fibre optic tree have just arrived ;D!
Huraah!
Still waiting for 3 breakfast hampers though :-/
Ps, according to my visa, all monies taken from my account 7 days ago, so if the small hampers dont show, can I demand some sort of compensation?...the north will rise again...0 -
