    I hate waiting for deliveries to arrive

    Waiting for my new phone to arrive, I know it said between 9 and 5:30 but I would have expected it to have arrived by now, hope it's not on City Link lol

    If it is City-Link it is fully trackable and if you have been supplied a shipping reference can be tracked easier on City-Links site as you know we use them and they have an excellent success rate.

    Re: I hate waiting for deliveries to arrive

    I ordered something off of Misco at literally one or two minutes before they end the day last week, with 1-3 day delivery.

    Next morning, at 7am, at the door "BANG BANG BANG."

    Presmably the supply depot is just up the road or something.

    Citylink are ok so long as you don't mind the odd item that's clearly been used for warehouse football.

    Been waiting for an item from ebay for 6 days now, allegedly sent on wednesday, from a place 40 miles down the road, beginning to doubt that one!

    aah, but do city link not send everything to the central hub for processing, or has this changed now?

    so even if it is nextdoor it goes all the way to the midlands before coming back to you

    (well... it did last time i fully looked into how city link did things... at least i think that was citylink....)

    Re: I hate waiting for deliveries to arrive

    Could be worse i suppose, last year i managed to get a delivery from their Rotherham depot before it sank in the floods!

    They probably do send things around the country, I guess it's not all bad, got my pc delivered last tuesday at 7:30 in the morning!

    I've never had any problems with city link, everything has come well packaged and always between 9 and 10 am even when the slot I've selected is 9 to 5:30. Pretty impressive service for where I live.

    My HD TV was delivered by citylink and its probably the best delivery I've ever had by courier. Ordered on Friday, came Tuesday and no visible damage to the box or anything inside it.
