ego? pride? its a funny thing

So I was ordering some cologne from fragrancenet
it didn’t work out so well, i put in my current address as my billing instead of my CC billing adress, got my order put on hold, called them to fix it, called 2 hours later and they still ahvent done anything, 2 hours after that got a new email saying im on temporary hold, and i have to call to give them permistion to ship to my billing adress cuz they wont ship to my shipping adress (billing is 100 miles from me).
got hung up on twice when i was trying to be polite and saying thank you have a good day, bye. i hear a CLICK lol
so im mad, when i get the temporary hold email i call them again im like, i told them the right billing adress 4 hours ago, i want it shiped to my shipping adress because i live 100 miles away, is there any way to do that, she says no! so i tell her to cancle the order, and she does (wow the email came in 5 minuts lol)
so i headed over to fragrancex to get the same stuff for an extra 20 bucks :confused: and i opted for the 30 dollar fastes air shipping LOL.

so i guess my ego/ pride/ priniciple of the matter-ness got the better of me and i ended up paying 50 bucks more, which could been an extra cologne from fragrancenet, but hey they pissed me off!

/end of rant
anyone else have storys like this?
makes me love smartmones customer service, i always use a differnt shipping adress & billing then what my card is registerd to

What all did you order? Anything super-suave? :smiley:

I dunno if that EXACT thing has happened… I used to go to a Bubble Tea place nearby, but then management changed, and ultimately the ordering procedure became unnecessarily long and painful (they were snooty, they were slow at recording my order, making my order, ringing up my order, the whole deal). So I figured I might as well spend the extra dollar or two in gas and head farther out and get super-speedy service, no attitude, and a cooler cup as well. :smiley:

haha, how is that bubble tea stuff?
i always say im going to go to one them, and never do!

It’s pretty good… I mean, you either like it or you don’t. Half the people I talk to like it, half don’t. It’s one of those things where you either like new stuff and are willing to give it a full-fledged try and then make a decision, or you’re trying it only 'cause you have to and then you’ve basically made up your mind before even ordering one that you don’t like it. I like it… and most of my friends like it. Here’s a fun thing to do with them… get a tapioca ball in your mouth, chew it once or twice, put it back into the straw, and shoot it like a spit-wad. It sticks SUPER good to clothing. Or feels super slimey if it’s in your face. And it pulls off of clothing and then wipes off pretty neatly (and doesn’t stain as far as I know). Of course, do this to a friend and you run the risk of them doing it back… I once walked around for a half hour downtown Portland with 5 tapioca balls on my back and didn’t even know it till I sat down on the Max train. :smiley:

Sorry to hear what happened to you there, hopefully you will get better service next time :slight_smile:
