Mel (& Paul) Posted September 7, 2006 Share Posted September 7, 2006 WELL????? Have you got it yet????????????/ You could ring Omlet - they might be able to get the couriers number (I presume Omlet dont deliver to deepest darkest dorset?) and ring them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mel (& Paul) Posted September 7, 2006 Share Posted September 7, 2006 You might want to ring them (I would be on the phone every two minutes if it were me ) Is it Omlet or the courier delivering? The first came first thing We drove up and collected our and the came just after 5pm - so still time for it to arrive Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chelsea Posted September 7, 2006 Author Share Posted September 7, 2006 I keep getting up and looking out the window every 5 minutes! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mel (& Paul) Posted September 7, 2006 Share Posted September 7, 2006 They may turn up later - dont worry! When our sofas were delivered we were given a "window" of 8am to 6pm. They turned up at 7.30pm............... (and our friends had a rude awakening from the same firm who arrived at 7am!!!!!!!!!) Do you want me to ring Omlet for you, and the courier? If you do just pm me with your road name and town and your surname and I will gladly do it - always happy to help out a fellow omleteer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chelsea Posted September 7, 2006 Author Share Posted September 7, 2006 REALLY ANNOYED hubby rang omlet at 16.55 and they've just called back to say that the courier has put the eglu "on the wrong route" they wont be able to ring the courier again till 9am tomorrow morning that means we wont get it today and we wont get it tomorrow "Ooops, word censored!"ody home at all next week as husband works shifts and he is on "days" im so upset i could cry (as im not feeling well anyway ! ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jools Posted September 7, 2006 Share Posted September 7, 2006 Are you related to my husband ............ whatever he does, it always goes wrong ........... except for marrying me 24 years ago of course ! Seriously, it is so disappointing to be let down like that. When I bought my first Forsham ark, I was really messed about with the delivery and it took over a week to turn up. In the end, the poor delivery driver was phoning me every few hours to tell me where he was and how long it would be before he got to me. I don't think he'd bargained on the roads around here and when it got to 10.30pm I told him to find somewhere to sleep and call me in the morning! I hope you don't go through the same trauma and I am absolutely sure that the customer service you will get from Omlet will more than make up for today's disappointment.

chelsea Posted September 7, 2006 Author Share Posted September 7, 2006 Its true though - nothing runs smoothly for us - never I must admit I did shed a tear when hubby walked the dog it seems like my life has been on hold waiting for this eglu, ive been very poorly since sunday, been to the doctor 3 consecutive days and spent over £33 on prescrptions... the eglu not coming is one big let down...... hubby keeps trying to cheer me up - he says hes gonna ring the courier in the morning and find out where it is - if its not too far - he is going to fetch it!!!
