not exactly - im just not allowed to talk about what goes on inside where i work. & im already overstepping the mark. but they can bite me for all i care.

FreedomEclipse · May 2, 2009

yoyotech are awesome. their my main guys for non-E-tail hardware. I get a lot of stuff from them & always had great service from them with any questions or returns that i might have.

Ketxxx · May 2, 2009

Royal Mail SUCK. You guys are always breaking/damaging/losing my stuff even on the rare occasions I have absolutely no other choice. :shadedshu

alexp999 · May 2, 2009

Royal Mail isnt that bad in the south. The redirection service has been great. Parcelforce on the other hand :shadedshu

Im not the one you should be complaining to :toast:

but there are hundreds of things that arent right with R.M

what do you guys think about this PSU

alexp999 · May 2, 2009

Id rather have a corsair

But I'm pretty sure Mushkin are okay. About the same as OCZs

MoonPig · May 2, 2009

Parcel force are twats. I got a mobo from the US, Parcel took it and charged me £17 handling, i paid it (reluctantly) and selected the Friday for delivery. Friday, nothing. Monday, nothing. Tuesday, nothing. I email them tuesday, they say it was a mistake and it'll arrive Wednesday. Wednesday, nothing. Call them, it'll arrive Thursday. Thursday, arrives at 3pm.

I payed them the handling charges + £2 for delivery on Friday. I never got refunded.

Beat that.. lol. I HATE them, not as much as OcUK though.

And i never thought of taking pictures as i didn't believe that such a thing could happen. Twats.

You do know parcelforce are part of rm right?

Dont forget DHL too! I use to work for them also!!

alexp999 · May 2, 2009

Yeah but TNT were supposedly going to buy a section of the sorting department. Or something like that.

FreedomEclipse · May 2, 2009

The company has come under extensive criticism from disgruntled customers, dubbing it "Parcelfarce" in colloquial terms for its reliance on automated call handling and perceived failure to meet acceptable service levels for the safe delivery of parcels and all their contents. In February 2006 Royal Mail was fined £11.4m after more than 14 million letters and parcels were lost, stolen, damaged or tampered with in the previous year

In recent years the company has won industry awards for Information Technology and Health and Safety

Damn they stopped doing suicide delivery runs....

Companies need kicking into touch from time to time.

I Would still buy a corsair unless that is a particularly good price?

Ketxxx · May 2, 2009

Not likely. A LOT of RM workers are ex cons. So go figure how so much stuff handled by RM gets "lost"/damaged :\

now that, isnt true. all R.M workers arent/werent allowed to work until the security checks came in clean.

but there are those who join the service then change & start stealing things. R.M has a Zero Tolerance policy on stealing & they will prosicute & take you to court if you are caught stealing, & in my 6months ive been with them Ive already seen 3 people frogged marched out of the building by police. so its not a matter that R.M takes lightly. - LOCAL COUNCILS & Nurserys hire Ex-Cons, not R.M.

Ketxxx · May 2, 2009

No, RM do hire ex cons I've seen it/heard it, and Despatches reported on it 1-2 years ago.

FreedomEclipse · May 2, 2009

Well i dunno about 2 years ago. i wasnt working for them then but they have stepped their game up since. - at least in my experience. but who knows if there are still ex-cons that are still in the service.

Ketxxx · May 2, 2009

Whatever internal tweaks have been done, RM still suck. DHL or City link all the way for me
