In process...

[Dame Fondacox]

I placed an order on 12/09 and it's still showing as in process, five days later. I have, of course paid for it, but no sign of any movement in terms of it being dispatched. So much for their 5-7 days delivery promise. I placed another order yesterday and that's showing the same status. I usually have a turnaround of three days between ordering and delivery.

They said that deliveries will be a bit slower at the moment as they are doing something to the Warehouses.

I'm still waiting for a refund they must have had back now nearly 2 weeks.

 

[Dame Fondacox]

Oh don't get me started on refunds - the rare occasion when I sent something back recently, it took them ages to reimburse me. I'll be sure to give appropriate feedback when they send me the Trust Pilot link.

I ordered two items during their warehouse update and both arrived within 5 days which surprised me. I was expecting their quoted 7-10 days so maybe it depends on what was ordered.

 

[Dame Fondacox]

They sent me a fiver off coupon through the post today, as a 'thank you'.

Is it a direct despatch item?

 

[Dame Fondacox]

Is it a direct despatch item?

No. Elizabeth Grant and it's in stock.

 

[donna255]

Yes, it said 5 to 7 days at for items ordered last week.

I ordered a diamonique tennis bracelet down from £75 to £34+, it was shipped last Thursday but no sign of delivery. Just said on email the courier would contact when it was due for delivery. Now Evri usually do update the day after it was despatched but nothing. So it is actually RM?

I have an idea I will be sending it back anyway as the reviews are up and down. Mostly about the catch not being good, it seems. I saw the demo live when I ordered.

 

[Dame Fondacox]

Both my orders are still 'in process' six, and two days later.

@donna255 - I once tried to cancel an order in process and couldn't. CS told me I could refuse delivery and the courier would return it to them unopened. This saved me the faff and cost of having to return it myself. That was a while back, and things might have changed. You also have to be at home when the courier delivers.

 

[Clothescloth]

I must have been lucky! Ordered a Liz Earle serum on Tuesday, and it arrived Saturday.

 

[donna255]

Dame Fondacox, you need to phone CS up and cheque.

My tennis bracelet came via the postie just now. It is perfect, no problems with the clasp and very pretty.

 

[Dame Fondacox]

I received this email earlier:

Dear Dame Fondacox

Thank you for your patience*,

*A little bit presumptuous.

It's still showing as 'in process' and I've just received notification that the order I placed yesterday is on its way.

 

[donna255]

MMM! I think since an ordered placed well after the first is on its way. They have lost/misplaced your Elizabeth Grant order? I hope they don't fart about and just send you another one quickly.

 

[Dame Fondacox]

It's still showing as in process and the money has now been credited back to my bank account. Apparently banks only put a hold on a transaction for seven days. I only use this account for online shopping to avoid fraudulent transactions (it works) so I'm going to transfer the money and their 'warehouse problems' mean they've lost out on a sale!

 

[donna255]

Wise decision. I bet there a quite a few in the same position as you.

 

[Dame Fondacox]

Well the saga continues, after asking CS to cancel the order (my bank had already credited me of the hold they had on my account) I reordered the same items on EP, with free P&P on Sunday and received it today. I've now received notification that the original order has shipped, so essentially I've got two for the price of one!

 

[donna255]

Ah! Only at QVC!

 

[Dame Fondacox]

I'll be interested to see if they chase me for the money. If they do, I'll insist they arrange for Evri to collect the return, on a day that's convenient for me.

 

[donna255]

Yes, I have a feeling they will. So just keep an eye on your bank account.

Long ago I ordered something not QVC, eBay France they took so long to ship my bank which had the money hanging waiting to be claimed refunded me. Then it arrived, and I had to organize sending the money to the seller. Damn nuisance.
