Annoyed Grimbarian.
Ordered 2 wardrobes, free standing mirror and a mattress from IKEA on Nov 30th, scheduled delivery for Dec 20th. Two days before delivery I was given my delivery slot. Come the day of delivery I waited patiently for the call that is mean to be made '1 hour before delivery'. This came 15 mins after the delivery slot and consisted of being grunted at and told he was '20 minutes away'. I even gave the driver instructions on where was best to park. 20 mins later, no delivery. I text the driver asking where he is. No reply. 10 more minutes pass and I ring the driver. Phone goes straight to voicemail. I then proceed to wait another hour and a half, before ringing him again. The call rings out with no answer. Finally I decided to check the website and apparently Mr delivery gorilla had decided he would take it upon himself to cancel my order. So I call customer service and speak to a very helpful lady who informed me that apparently their delivery driver decided that he couldn't drive down the road so had cancelled the order. Baring in mind at no point was I contacted and informed of this, in fact it seems like he turned his phone off to avoid having the conversation. Had he have bothered to do a crucial part of his job I'd of met him a street or two away and carried the boxes back myself. Re-delivery was scheduled for the 29th of December, 8:45 - 12:45... as I'm typing this it is 18:07 on that date and we've had no delivery, no phone call, no contact at all. All the while I've got no idea if my delivery is even in a lorry being shipped around because a huge company like IKEA apparently can't afford to invest in accurate order tracking. At the end of the day I can track a pizza order from when it goes in the oven, comes out the oven, is put in the car then I can GPS track it to my house. Why can I do that with takeaways and most other couriers but for some reason IKEA can't. Wish I'd never ordered from them, I'd advise anyone else to completely boycott them no matter how cheap and cheerful, spend a little extra and shop local at least you'll receive your order and help someone out rather than feeding this corporation of slack jawed mouth breathers.
