    :(

    It's not looking good, ordered at around 9.30 pm 11th July. Had confirmation E-Mail of delivery by 6 PM Monday. Checked their website and my order too has disappeared from the system. I am staying in today especially to await delivery, so if it does not turn up then I will at the very least be complaining about wasting my time as I have had no communications to say that it won't be delivered.

    Best of luck to the rest of you.

    Good for you... making a complaint for wasting your time makes sense, it's rediculous that they couldn't send us a quick email to let us know.

    By the way, I hope you're making full use of https://www.saynoto0870.com for the freephone number?!

    same here. my order is now missing, ordered at 10pm on 11th, now on hold for cs

    well after 27 minutes of being on hold and transferred, mines not coming.
    Out of stock at suppliers, nothing they can do, sent a letter on the 15th (not got it) I asked to be put onto a supervisor, who basically said delivery date is an estimation, that the order is not accepted until its despatched hence why not on order page anymore as they just delete them. They dont care, cant offer any reason as to why they could not phone or email rather than write, I wont be using them again, very poor customer service.

    I think I'll wait until after 6pm tomorrow when it's supposed to arrive and then complain that I stayed in especially, why didn't they e-mail me to let me know they were out of stock, etc, etc. Not good service at all!

    "hi i have just rang kays to check my bench is arriving tomorrow and have been told its been cancelled no more stock left, as anybody else had this problem I ordered at 21.51
    11.07.05"

    I ordered at 23:30 and just called because my order is arriving tomorrow and was told the same. Can I ask for other goods of equal value?

    a contract exists here because we offered, paid and they accepted. However...would a Court think we were entitled to a bench worth say £100 if we only paid a tenner? I think a Court would just give us a small discount or our money back because although we have a contract we might have known something was amiss...

    I'll try and see what I can wrangle out of them (say enough money to buy a good bench at John Lewis?!) but I suspect we will get no-where.

    This discussion board will be a good read though!

  • I've not recieved my two benchs yet, but the £16 was taken from my credit card.

    When I check online, it does show my order in previous orders with a delivery of 19/07/05, so there's hope yet.
