    OK I give up on clarifying the costs :) I'm sure it's as clear as day now.

    One thing is as clear as day - you can only claim for one hour's pay if you have actually lost one hour's pay due the seller's actions.

    You certainly cannot claim one hour's pay simply because you have spent one hour sorting out the seller's shortcomings.

    £35+ on phone calls? Where were you phoning Ikea in Sweden!

    he didnt say that.

    OP i think you could try for £40, the failed delivery cost plus the phone calls unless you really lost another £40 but it reads like you want IKEA to pay you an hours wages

    Ok so just to clarify but you get paid £83,200 a year (2080 x £40) and yet you're quibbling over trying to charge them for 'time wasted' at your hourly rate?

    I mean I could understand you doing so on £12k a year, but christ! With that kind of dough I'd just order a limousine and go pick up the box myself!

    I worked it out as £20 per hour as "over 2 hours" is mentioned in the OP.

    So I'm claiming for 1 hour of lost time, the delivery charge, and a negligible amount for the phonecalls.

    Yea, I was going off that one....

    but I think OP did also mention 2 hours in the original post too :rotfl:
