RAM courier, NOT TO BE USED

I placed an order for a new phone due to the fact that my current has given up the ghost. Vodacom dispatched a new handset on Tuesday the 28/09 at 15:12. It arrived in PE Wednesday 29/09 at 5:56. I called on Thursday 30/09 to see when it would be delivered. I was told it won't get delivered the same day as parcels need to be sorted for delivery first, bearing in mind it had all ready been sitting in their warehouse for over 24hrs already, that not withstanding, all the trucks were out on their routes already so it wouldn't be delivered that day anyway. Friday 1/10, I wasn't at work due to unforeseen circumstance, so I called the PE depo to see if I could get it delivered to my home address. That is not an option as it takes between 24 & 48 hrs to change that, besides, it was still sitting in the ram warehouse and not due for delivery that day either. So I offered to go and collect it myself. That is not an option either. I called this morning, 4/10 to confirm that it will in fact be delivered today and guess what, it's still sitting in the warehouse. So now, I am waiting for a phone call to see if it will be delivered today. Tracking number, for what it's worth U***

Hello Warren.

Apologies for the experience you had with the delivery service and the delayed delivery of your parcel.

We will escalated the matter to the hub management to arrange for delivery. They should revert to you at the soonest possible time.

Kind regards.

When it was delivered, the delivery guy was shocked that it hadn't been delivered Thursday last week, as according to him. Tuesdays and Thursday are the days for this area, so perhaps whoever is in charge of making sure that the correct parcels leave the warehouse on time should be answering some questions right about now

Remember the parcel was taken out for delivery on service recovery.

The branch manager is the one who was correcting the mishap of the parcel that was not delivered on the day it was supposed to be delivered on.

Service recovery is done by management make those corrections.

I suppose the phrase " correcting the mishap " is going to be the closest I can expect to admission that someone slipped up

Definitely someone at the branch made a slip; we do do not know who yet. But the branch manager sorted it out.
