I don't get my iBood email alerts until around 3.45am - do you check the site manually or just get told earlier for some reason?

Re: Harmony 1000 for £150 - be quick

i've purchased one of these last week money is out of my account but when i look at info of order, it been saying in progress. I think it is a bit cheeky to take the money out of my account before they have shipped the item. What is there processing/shipping timescale like?

Re: Harmony 1000 for £150 - be quick

who knows but the tracking number i have does not find anything, so it looks as if it has only been packaged up but not picked up by dhl. have to say i would not use them again unless it is one heck of a deal!

Still awaiting mine. Ibood are absolutely shocking when it comes to delivery.

I'll probably receive my credit card statement with this on before the remote turns up.

Re: Harmony 1000 for £150 - be quick

well nothing again for me. would have been quicker to send it by carrier pigeon.

sent two emails and noone has come back to me on either. customer service poor, shipping poor which makes the company downright poor in my book. will not use again even if they do have a great offer.
