Hi guys,
Just a heads up if you're ever thinking of placing an order with the 'Online Shopping Company' (http://www.the-online-shopping-company.co.uk).
I placed an order with them three weeks ago for two items that were showing as being 'in-stock'. A day later, one of the items went out of stock and I'm still waiting for my order to be delivered. They give an estimated dispatch date but that's been and gone half a dozen times now.
I've tried emailing, phoning and even sent a postal letter asking them to amend my order but there's been no contact or reply from them. I got another automated email from them this morning saying that the dispatch date is now the 1st of July but there's no way of contacting them for a refund. I put a thread on their forum an hour ago very politely asking for an alternative way of contacting them - but it got deleted.
I've placed a couple of orders with them in the past and it's been a similar story - I should have learnt my lesson.
Anyway, to sum up - don't trust their website's stock levels, be prepared to wait for ages and ages for your order to arrive even if it is in stock, and if you're thinking of contacting them after placing an order you might as well try shouting at the moon.
