Just a rant I'm afraid. I've just had one of the worst customer service experiences in a very long time from tooled-up.com, and thought it worth sharing.
- A couple of weeks ago, I purchased a stapler from them. They sent it. I tried it, it was faulty (kept jamming).
- Called them, then sent it back at my expense.
- They sent a replacement. This also turned out to be faulty.
- Called them again, they asked me to send stapler 2 back. I said I'd only do this when they've refunded my postage for the first one, which they haven't. They eventually (after a very long conversation) agreed to collect stapler 2.
- They've now sent stapler 2 back to me stating no fault. They won't refund my postage, and they've charged my credit card more than I'd originally paid.
I know I could (and should) pursue this, but TBH I've really had enough of it; I'd rather just bin the thing and forget about the whole incident.
I would normally have stuck to Screwfix, Axminster and Toolstation, all of which have great customer service in my experience, but they didn't have the model I wanted.
