Punters ringing two firms. :sad:

Thankfully today the two cars pulled up at the same time, and left at the same time.

As far as they are aware the punter is still at her home waiting.

Know it all customers. ](*,)

Trying to tell you a job will only take you just over an hour when you know it's a 2-hour job.

Thankfully that customer is someone else's problem.

Easyjet.

Why do they bother with a schedule when they are never ever on time?

I will not do a pick-up anymore for any late Easyjet flights. Not even for family.

Paid up front for something (a model) back in Jan 2020 . At the same time there were 4 items on the order 2 in stock the others awaiting manufacture in China. One of those arrived in the UK about 18 months ago the company said I would receive delivery when all 4 items were in stock (company policy) . last item has arrived in the UK this month so got a parcel today only 1 item in it so I emailed them to ask where the rest of the order was.

Their reply not in stock !!!








grrrrrrrr...............I paid up front so they have obviously sold the stock that I had already paid for and now I must wait even longer for fresh stock to arrive which might be another 2 years

Not enough hours in the day.

Not enough years in a life.
