Hi Jason,

Thank you for your feedback. I am very sorry to hear about your experience and the delay with your order.

Upon investigation, the parcel encountered a delivery issue and was returned to sender, which resulted in you not receiving your order as expected. I understand how frustrating this must have been and appreciate why you chose to cancel and purchase elsewhere.

I attempted to contact you to discuss this further and left a voicemail message. Please accept our sincere apologies for the inconvenience caused.

Kind regards,
Donna

Thank you for taking the time to leave a review, Patrick.

I am sorry to hear about the delay and the lack of communication regarding your order. I attempted to contact you personally to discuss this matter and provide an update.

Unfortunately, your item has been placed on back order, and we appreciate that not receiving proactive updates has been frustrating. Please be assured that we are actively chasing our Supply Planning team for a revised delivery date and have escalated the matter due to the length of time you have been waiting.

We sincerely apologise for the inconvenience caused and appreciate your patience while we work to obtain a firm update. If there is anything further we can assist with, please reply to our correspondence and we will be happy to help.

Kind regards,

Donna
Customer Resolution Team.
