Online store is a disaster.

Last week I tried to purchase a JoJo Tank online on the Builders Warehouse website. I had a gift card which I intended to use but the online system gave an error. I sent an email to query this but only received a response 4 days later. By that time I have decided to spend my gift card in store on other items and pay for the JoJo using my credit card. I duly did this. I selected the item, inserted the delivery address and made the payment. Everything was accepted. To my surprise I just received a phone call from Builders Warehouse stating that they cannot deliver the item and that I made a mistake with my purchase! I am shocked. How can this be?? It has been a disaster thuss far shopping online at Builders.

Please let me know today. Otherwise I will have to cancel the order and request a refund. I can purchase the item at any local store and have delivery within 24 hours. I nevertheless ordered the item from Builders because you were a little bit cheaper. I thought I will wait for the 10 day delivery period. But if I have to wait for longer than that I would like to know and cancel my order. Please let me know before end of business today so that I can make the necessary arrangements.

I was under the impression that this query is being handled. I just received a call from Donald from the NewMarket store telling me that they will rent a truck and then charge me for delivery to Middelburg!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! When I ordered the item it stated free delivery!! Please cancel my order and process my refund!!

I understand that it might take 7 to 10 days for the money to reflect back into my account after cancellation. What I dont understand is why the cancellation hasn't been processed yet? Is this included in the 7 to 10 days? Firstly it is a struggle to order items from Builders, then it is a struggle to have it delivered, now it is a struggle to cancel the order.

Please enusre that the funds is returned to my credit card. I do not require the funds on my Builders Profile. You stated on the 12th of October that the funds will be returned to my card yet I just received an email stating that it was returned to my Builders Profile. As it is clearly evident that I cannot purchase a JoJo tank online from Builders I will need to purchase the item at a different store. The funds on my Builders Profile will be of no use to me.
