I visited my parents a couple of weeks ago and left my credit card there. Realising this I asked them to send via recorded delivery. I missed the delivery as I was at work. This was last Friday and I went to collect it Monday using one of Birmingham's city cars to get there. They "couldn't" find it and told me to call up Tuesday even though my tracking code said it was at their depot and their slip said it'll be there. So, wasted journey and cost of the car...
Called Tuesday still cant find it. I said it's a credit card that I really need this weekend as I've paid to go away and I'm going to be short until pay next week due to unexpected bills. They've told a manager and after calling Wednesday (Not having a call back) still nothing. Called today and it just rings out. Thing is I'm busy at work and I don’t have time to keep chasing them.
I've had to cancel my credit card (best be safe) and now having to go down the route of borrowing money off my parents which I didn’t want to do. I've not had to borrow a lot but it's the principle that royal mail have f**ked up and cant really give me an explanation!!!
Want to complain but no idea where to start and whether I could get any compo for wasting time and having to pay out going to the depot?
Any ideas?
