I have been a loyal and frequent shopper at Noel Leeming, Albany, for many years. However, today, I was very disappointed with the service or lack of service that I experienced. I bought a dishwasher last Saturday, with a delivery date of one week later. Today, I waited for the item to be delivered. Eventually, I called the store late in the morning to inquire what time they expected it to be delivered, only to be told they didn't have any in stock and I could expect delivery on Wednesday. I am disappointed in the lack of communication during the week, as well as on the delivery day. I did appreciate the approach of the manager, and the fact that they refunded my purchase, I then bought the same item at Harvey Norman, picked it up and installed it myself. Communication with the customer could have prevented a lot of frustration!
