Complainig DOES work.

On Saturday, I ordered an exercise bike from Tesco for my mum. Was told that it would be delivered on 17th May between 7am and 7pm.
7.20pm, and no delivery, I phone-up and get told that 'the warehouse forgot to load it on the van, it will be delivered tomorrow'. I pointed-out that my parents made a special effort to get up early & to make sure that at least one of them remained in the house at all times.
At 8.20pm a delivery van rolled-up outside their house with 1 exercise bike.
As they say..
'Every little whinge helps'

    Was good to get the delivery earlier but they should have included a gift card for the inconvenience.
    No you're not a vegetarian if you eat any animal or fish, so do not insult genuine veggies by calling yourself one! :mad:

    Thanks to everyone who posts competitions. You are the stars of the board :T:j:T

    I wasn't worried about anything 'extra'. My mum suffers from COPD, so it takes her a lot of effort to get up for 7am, my dad is usually up, but usually walks the dog around that time.

    At least I haven't had a phonecall asking for help putting it together yet!!!
