So, do I just ignore it or do I call them tomorrow and tell them I didn't order it and for them to come and collect it?Quote:

proof of delivery is not the same as proof of receipt.Quote:

I rang them early this morning. Giving the lovely lady on the phone the details for recollection she said "You ordered two bags."
"No I didn't. You called me and I said no."
"You said no?"
"That is correct."
"I can't do anything. I'll send the message upstairs and someone will call you."
"Make it snappy." I'm not spending the day standing by the phone waiting for them to get organised. They need organising.
Still haven't heard from them seven hours later.
Well, Mario, you and I were wrong.
These telemarketers are very pushy. Very, very pushy. Their employers should be very happy with that.
Talking to one of the neighbours this afternoon, she informed me they called her. Eventually to get rid of them, despite not wanting any, she ordered two bags and they haven't been delivered yet.
I'm still giggling.
No Mick its the real thing.Quote:

Ok. Enough is enough.
It's been a year now and they still haven't collected their fertiliser.
I'll move it from the driveway to the backyard.
To tell you the truth, I'm surprised it hasn't been stolen.
Anyways, a new company is now sending me nasty letters.
Earlier this year I needed to move a car to a secure location until I could collect it. It was in country Victoria and I couldn't get to it for a few weeks.
I got a towing company in a nearby town to collect it and store it. They told me I wouldn't be able to collect the car until I had paid the bill in full. "That sounds reasonable." I said, "I'll pay the bill when I come out to collect the car."
Two weeks later, I took the tandem to their business, paid them, got a receipt, loaded the car and toddled off home.
A couple of weeks later, I received an overdue notice in the mail. I called them and advised the bill had been paid.
Now, a month later, in the mail I get a 60 days overdue invoice.
I don't want to be ringing them every month to tell them the account has been settled.
Maybe I should send them a letter stating I will pay the bill when they allow me to collect the vehicle. I wonder if they'll go looking for it?
On the other hand, maybe not.
Maybe photocopy the paid invoice and show them.... I had to do something similar in the states before. It worked for me
Watch those bags. They're probable now degraded from being in the sun. They may fall to bits when you try to move them.Quote:

I'll wait for the debt collector letters and then send an invoice for solicitor fees. That tends to make them look.
In the mean time, another phone call. They're free. Letters are a dollar.
What annoys me is I shouldn't be doing their job. They have a copy of the receipt in their receipt book. They should have reconciled their books with that.
Better still, their office staff clearly are overworked if they are missing this sort of stuff. In these days of jobless people (more in the country than the city), perhaps they should put on a junior or a part timer
That's ok. The contents will spill over where it needs to be spread anyway.Quote:

They kept telling her the it must have bounced, again and again my missus told them if every way possible how can cash bounce!!! She gave them the receipt number but too no avail, they said they need to launch an investigation which will take 90 days as they need to trace the cheque... It was then my missus went nuts I swear she was almost foaming from the mouth when she again rather loudly told them they were idiots and it was cash, and how it was not going to take 90 days. What is amazing is the NQRA has a massive turn over, I cant say the amount here but it is not a small account at all. You would think they would try harder not to annoy account holders.. If it is not resolved soon I will post the bank name here.
