Can't believe it - for the 2nd night running - I dreamt about hampers last night!

This time, my order arrived and, instead of the 2 large hampers, there were 12 tiny hampers, all containing just 1 small jar of jam. I was desperately trying to Sellotape 6 of them together to make it look like a big hamper :rotfl:

Think I need to get out more, no wait a minute, can't do that - AS I'M WAITING IN FOR A HAMPER DELIVERY!!!

You sure this was a dream?

Everyone must be hiding behind the sofa everytime someone knocks at the door just incase the police have come to arrest them!

I arrest you in the name of the Cheese, the Chocolate and the Holy Hamper. Season of Miracles and all that

Well - just got a email saying my hampers have been dispatched but I will take that with a huge pinch of salt. Believe it when I see it.
I have had to replace most of the hampers so only need 2 of them now... its been an expensive lesson. sigh!

Does this Neil honestly expect us to believe the police are interested in this thread and are watching it - the only watching it probably because they have hampers too they want and are waiting for - First off the site would have had to have been informed that police are monitoring it for activity relating to what ! saying nasty things about a company which are all turning out to be true anyway - and has anyone actually made any specific threats that would warrant police manning a vigil to the posts on here and if that was the case this thread wouldn't still exist
Neil's gone i;ll show them people that my dad is bigger then there dad and go away you bullies i;ll get the police on to you. boo hoo.
The police and Trading Standards are more likely to side with people on here anyway
What Neil is probably saying i would have got away with my delaying tactics is it wasn't for those meddling mse-ers

In the bleak mid-winter,
Neil made us moan.
Just wanted what we'd ordered,
Delivered to our home

Hampers that are really nice,
Re-e-ea-ly nice.
They would have been a bargain,
If they'd been worth the price!

Our God, what shall I give them,
Those relatives of mine.
I'd do some extra shopping,
If I just had the time.

Hampers that are really nice,
Re-e-ea-ly nice.
They would have been a bargain,
If they'd been worth the price!

Angels and Archangels,
May be on his side.
If he just gets those orders out,
And regains some pride!

Altogether now!

Hampers that are really nice,
Re-e-ea-ly nice.
They would have been a bargain,
If they'd been worth the price!

Can just see the police singing along to that one now

Hi, I'll add my name to the list.

Waiting on the Festive Special (buy 4 hampers and get 2 free) was quite calm about the whole thing up to this week, thinking that they've surely worked out how many they can pack a day multiplied by how many they have to get out and worked out when everything should be despatched but I'm struggling to believe the incompetance here.

We're now 6 days over the last official communication from the company (in the form of the apologetic email) where we were assured that we will receive the hampers for Christmas, however are there really still so many of us waiting that we don't warrant another update.

I've taken to speaking with UK Mail this week, who would seem to be the only people we can believe in all this, I've had to stop myself from tweeting or calling the shop because I don't think I could stand to be lied to in the way that so many of you have.

Instead every day this week I've continued to email, making my email chain longer and longer (and of course getting no response).

I had such high hopes yesterday when I read that two van fulls had been collected but speaking with the courier today I know that mine aren't amongst them.

I'm also beginning to wonder what action they are going to take after tomorrow when it is simply too late - UK Mail's website confirm, that for goods to be delivered on Monday they would need to be collected by Friday at the latest.

I don't think I've ever been made to feel so guilty for asking where goods are that I've paid for in good faith.
