    Part of the Furniture 10,000 Posts Combo Breaker Xmas Saver!
    Keep an eye on the delivery screen. Mine was down for a morning delivery couple of weeks ago. When they didn't arrive I checked the screen showed they had attempted delivery but no-one in. I was in-and in the room closest to the front door at the supposed time of delivery. I called Dell who commented the driver hadn't filled in the colour of the front door so had obviously skipped me. Told me they would contact Walsh Western and I would hear from them within 45 mins. No response so I called Walsh Western direct who got the driver to return and deliver it at the end of the day "on his way home". It arrived about 3.30pm.

    ok, thanks I'll do that. The delivery screen does say out for del on Tues am.

    This is the final thing to arrive for christmas and causing the most stress,:rolleyes:

    Is it a Walsh Western delivery van or do they contract the deliveries out?
