I requested 40 measures of terrace panel 3.6m x 140mm x 28mm on 8th July.

I paid extra for Sunday shipping also it came about the first available Wednesday, therefore it was an excellent start but since that time anything went terribly wrong.

Just six of the initial panels were of worthwhile, so that they were:

1) nearly right - not arcing with a change greater than 5mm per metre size

2) not somewhat bowed

3) not split in locations apart from possibly at-one or both ends

4) examined to possess significantly less than 5 knots per metre size

5) not broken or broken-in different ways for example being cut/distorted by keeping straps

6) examined not to have substantial openings or spaces where troubles had dropped out

The only real reason I purchased from wickes is the fact that section of my terrace has already been utilizing their terrace and so I didnt wish to have an irregular turn to the top.

I just actually purchase the minimal quantity of timber that I will use or lay out to prevent bending although standing for greater than a fortnight.

34 bits of timber had several of the above mentioned problems. Imaginable how poor this timber cared for I unpacked it.

I approached Wickes customer care (Becky) on 17th September plus they explained it had been I'd be simpler easily approached the neighborhood shipping centre at St Albans and consult with them straight.

I am aware the website team might be hectic, nevertheless after eight efforts to contact them-and being continued store for over 20minutes or simply getting the telephone hold up on me, I began to get frustrated. Therefore a couple of days later I talked with Matt who approached the website on my account plus they guaranteed to contact me back. However nothing happened. Therefore following a few more times I talked with Millie who did just like Matt despite the fact that I questioned her to acknowledge a romantic date to get the timber and provide some alternative. Our recommendation was rejected.

So here I'm again, on Sunday 7th July discovering myself talking with Bob in Wickes customer care when I still can't cope with towards the website people. He explained he'd advance to local administration, but I've no idea what which means and whether Ill get any quality to my problem.

So far as Im worried, this deck ought to be completed right now and that I still have to purchase an additional 20 measures of terrace.

All I will state is the fact that despite how useful Wickes customer care attempts to be, I simply can't get something categorized.

Its worth noting that I've had my fingertips burned by Wickes before after I purchased some wood before that was bowed and damaged but was not able to solve it using the supervisor within the Borehamwood department in under 30days when I couldnt locate my bills, and so I was lumbered with (excuse the pun) over a hundred pounds of ineffective timber.
