Argos sucks

April 27th, 2005 by Rose

This country is really crap in it’s service delivery. We ordered a futon couch at the start of April, it is supposed to take UPTO 28 days for it to arrive, we figure fine, by then Mum will be here and we will all have something to sit on. While its just Steve and I it’s not so bad we can watch TV in bed if we don’t want to sit at the dinner table in the lounge (the only chairs we have at the moment besides the computer chairs).

So they are supposed to arrive this week, and we get a letter saying it’s going to be even more of a wait. I rang them up, I was so peeved. But they don’t care. ‘Wait for it or cancel the order’ was the reply I got.

Nearly every thing we bought in this country besides the refrigerator was an absolute nightmare.

So now we won’t have a couch/sofa thingy until the probably after our trip to France. They said they ‘anticipate’ receiving the stock from the supplier by the 16th May. Which means who knows when it will actually arrive to us.

Ugh, they are so frustrating. If I had the extra money I would get it elsewhere, but the thing is they wouldn’t care.

No one cares about good customer service anymore. Businesses don’t care if they inconvenience you, they don’t care if they lie and cheat you into buying things under false pretences. It sucks.
