city link rant

Options
I don't believe it :mad:
booked a day off for City Link to pick up some boxs for a ebay sale waited all morning down stairs I go upstairs pick somethink up and walk straight downstairs and there's a card through the door :mad:

I run outside but he's gone , Card time 13.00 I look at the time and it's 12.58 so I've phoned them and they 'might' come back if they have time.

Really mad now been having problems with the ebayer already (rude emails and her messing about with booking a pick up and this was listed as a pick up only in the first place wish I never said yes to courier now)
I just know she's going to be nasty about this now if they don't come back and I've waited two weeks already with another pick cancelled (by her)
sorry no questions just having a bad day lol
anyway rant over happy money saving folks xxx

    She sounds like a bloody nightmare!

    Not sure the significance between 12:58 and 1300 though :huh:

    Brace yourself for when it arrives and they complain it was damaged or something. Or god help you if it is delayed in transit -- your the only one for her to vent at :D

    Although that could have been the seller that didn't send on a next day delivery rather than City Link not delivering it.
