Gift delivery madness
« on: September 01, 2021, 03:16:13 PM »
Big Sis is 83 this Saturday. Given hospital food and whatnot, I order a large fruit basket from M&S to be delivered to her hospital ward on Saturday.

She has gone home. I go online to get the order redirected or cancelled.

NOT POSSIBLE!

I call the Customer Helpline and wait 20 minutes Banghead Banghead

The order cannot be cancelled or redirected  Banghead Banghead

However, when I get a notification on Saturday that the order is out for delivery I MAY be able to change the delivery address then!!

Bonkers!

It's better than I ever even knew.  They say that the world was built for two.  Only worth living if somebody is loving you.  Baby now you do.
