Wagahai’s corner

Went today to Wild Animal park with some friends, 2 mini video clips to share

Lorikeets in action and asking for attention.

Ok, so Krys mentioned earlier that I should try moving to Wordpress.. again..

..so here it is.. and it appears to work.  So far so good eh?  Now to play with it a bit and make it into what I want.  Also with the new look/feel you can probably expect a new type of post.  Rather than going on and on about what ticked me off or what just was the most impressive thing in the world, I’ll be blogging probably a bit more about tech and other crap than before just for fun.

Ok, so was looking to grab a few items and I’ve heard everyone talk about Tiger Direct and decided to try them.. Most tech people seem happy to recommend them.

Unfortunately, couldn’t have been a worse experience.. and this is only day 1, the day I placed the order.. and I think I succeeded in killing my order, but here’s the blunder list:

* Website screwed up and left 1/2 of my order off
* Phone sales screwed me into buying 2 of 1 of my items and tells me
to just “rerfuse delivery” of the first (assuming I am here to do that)
* Phone sales AGAIN causes the order to not make it thanks to warrenty
problem
* E-mail response to my complaint about website tells me to call in to
credit but gives no special # and doesn’t bother mentioning that the
department is already closed for the day.
* Called back in to try to talk to the credit department, am told they’re
closed
* Called back to try to cancel the order and am told the account is frozen
by the credit department. Meanwhile person I spoke with hears the story
and is confused as to why I was asked to order a SECOND of the same item
just to put it on the same order.. (as am I) They were also unable to
verify if the order has gone out, if there is actually a hold or if the
order will be shipped tomorrow.

Will update later, but I have to say, this company does NOT make ordering items easy.. or any part of the order process for that matter. Most places I order from online I place an order with, item ships next day, I have it after that based on which shipping I asked for.. it’s as easy as can be.
