Dont get me started on Winc.

Came in, gave me a big spiel about being the cheapest in stationary, yadda yadda. I spend my precious time organising a product list of what we buy.

They come back with a quote with every single item a fair bit more expensive than what we pay.

Our next meeting got rescheduled to a "phone meeting" where we said our final goodbyes.

TNT were friggin space cadets, years ago they lost a $48K order I sent to a mining company years ago and I got my arse reamed over it, we had to remake it and send it straight away and then two months later it just showed up at our place with the original con note I put on it, all the details were spot on and it still ended up at the senders address.

Apparently they had unclaimed lost motorbikes and all sorts of valuable shit at their depot.

Do you know how much time it takes to organise stuff for Spartans and SA Sharks junior teams during work hours!?!?

Not to mention the printing bill....for the company.

Winc, arrived at one of our sites. They had gone to the Client entrance. Security directed them around to the Security office through the main building entrance. They simply ignored it, went back to van and gone....
All caught on CCTV.
I complained, every order was wrong. At one stage I thought it was just us, until my manager at time said it was happening all over Australia.
NFI why we put up with them for so long.

Mrs had issues with a courier mob, startrak I think.
They left a note on the computer tracking system saying noone was home.....when at the time my Mrs was on the phone to the Melb depot where its its there HQ...and I was watching tv in the lounge and noone came!!! She went nuts!!![emoji16]

I tell you who is the worst, Australia Post, absolutely shithouse.

We use Jet Couriers, big fleet, not too long waiting times, good pricing. excellent golf days. :lol:


We use Capital, but that might change soon.

Maybe I'll try to get in on your golf day. You'll love my company.


I use Capital for all my local stuff.
Only ever had one drama, rang my rep and told her never to send that driver again.

They're ok, but their prices seem to be rising.

I've had to call once, because an order was collected from us, and the signature on the POD was my first name printed in capitals.

I don't work in the warehouse, so the Capital driver had been grabbing stuff from where our outgoing stuff sits, and instead of getting one the guys to sign, he just signed whoevers names on the account.

That was a fun email and phone discussion. Im not allowing someone to sign my name on anything. One of the girls is a bit abrasive. I believe they've moved her away from customer service now.

I drove for yellow's for a little while, that was an experience.

I had a delivery to Electrolux once and no prick was willing to help until I found a forklift, jumped on it and started it up as I headed to the ute.

I just want an 1800mm spirit level delivered from Beverley to Plympton, not 4 tonnes of goods delivered from Darwin to Adelaide.

Why do I have to wait nearly 2 weeks?
