Any reaction to True Blood, Deb? Your eerie silence reminds me of your reaction to Michelangeli's Chopin Mazurkas. Will I have to give you your money back?
Trueblood arrived in the post today!!!!
Thanks to you, really, Thomas.
When you asked, I thought that it really should have arived. I checked the post office...no.
So...something made me check my account with the company I bought it from.
Sure enough.......although I had received previous goods from them with no trouble, when I looked, they had done some sort account keeping overhaul.
In my case, this turned my address into incomprehensible gibberish.
I tried to correct the mix-up, but the site wouldn't allow it.
So I emailed them to let them know:
a. The address now attributed to my account was now gibberish.
b. I was unable to correct said gibberish.
c. The package was about to be returned.
d. Here was the address I had given them, and which was, in fact my address, and could they please:
i. Send the package to my actual address when it was returned.
ii. Correct the gibberish their new system had made of my address so future packages would arrive without any major detours.
They emailed me back, clearly without reading my email, telling me what my address was in gibberish and saying the package would shortly arrive at said gibberish.
I responded with a somewhat heated email suggesting in future that their support staff would do well to read customer emails instead of whatever they had done with mine, and reiterating what I had said in the previous email, but with some capital letters.
I received back a somewhat abashed email noting that the package had, indeed, been returned because the address was gibberish, and that they had done as I asked in both of my emails, and that they had re-dispatched the package to the original and reiterated address.
And HERE IT IS!!!!!
Now to actually LOOK at it.
Are you trembling yet, Thomas?
