UPS And Halo 2
Okay, this happened a while back, but I never got around to posting it till now.
My copy of Halo 2 was supposed to be here on Tuesday the 9th, but didn’t arrive in Calgary until Thursday the 11th. I finally received in Friday morning. Apparently, UPS had a late trailer problem, which was cause for some delay, but not all. When I did get it I found the shipping notice in the package, and it was supposed to be shipped on the 6th, not the 8th. Another thing was that on the UPS website, it said it went out for delivery Thursday at 9 AM. Frustrated at not getting it, I phoned UPS at about 6 PM that evening. I went through the maze of recordings, and finally was able to talk to a real person. She told me that my package would be delivered between now, being about 6, and 8 o clock that evening. This renewed my optimism. This newly found optimism was quickly crushed as the clock struck 8, and no package had been delivered. I was fuming mad. I considered phoning UPS once again, but didn’t really feel like it as it’s not like they could do anything anyways. They could give me no compensation. I would just have to wait. I anxiously awaited Friday morning for the UPS guy to come. Everyone one else had gone to my brother-in-law’s convocation, so I was home alone. Finally, at about 11:20, the UPS guy shows up, and I receive my copy. I was not very happy with UPS and Future Shop, and will not be buying anything through futureshop.ca, anymore. Nor will I ever be shipping anything via UPS. I would advise all of you to do the same.
