So, the saga continues. I went to the sorting office this morning, to be told by staff there that I am unable to claim the parcel without the card. The person in there was standing holding my parcel, and refused to give it to me! Treated like a complete idiot - told basically it was my fault if I couldnt find the card. The staff just kept talking over me, saying that I was getting nothing without a card, nothing without a card, nothing without a card over and over! I asked to speak to a manager, told there was no manager to speak to and even if there was, I would still not be getting my parcel! I asked them not to hand it over to anyone other than me, regardless of them having a card - they said that they would need the card! Idiots, bloody idiots. I told them that their postie was a liar, as they kept telling me that as he had said he had attempted delivery, that he must have done!
On return home, called the number I was given for customer services, and made a complaint, I was told by the guy on the phone that there has to be a manager present at all times at the sorting offices, so I was lied to about this as well! I will say though that the guy on the phone was very helpful, and said he would be contacting the office to discuss both the postie not leaving a card, and the attitude of the staff there. The helpfulness of this guy - although welcome - was likely influenced by the fact that they are running a survey about customer service at the moment on the customer service line.
So, now I have had to go with the only option which is redelivery, they said it was too late to try again today (9am) and would I like them to try again tomorrow or on Saturday! I said try again tomorrow, but I wont be in! They said this was the best option, as I would get a card to collect it 24 hrs later! Absolute joke, through and through!#
I could understand them not giving my parcel out to someone without extensive proof of who they are, but I was standing there with my passport, drivers license, 3 utility bills and my polling card!
Argh! Sorry for ranting, really was looking forward to my new toy, but now this has soured the whole experience for me!

For temporary pain relief, gargle with salt water. I have had tonsilitis alot, and it really helps - but tastes disgusting!  |

Hope he hasn't attempted delivery at the wrong address! There isn't anyone around here I speak to, and I don't want them collecting my provari 'on my behalf'  Already put a complaint in to RM, they have no-one, anywhere to speak to by phone on a sunday, what a wonderful postal service we have! Also noticed they 'attempted delivery' before 12.10 (their specified time - before 12.10) no doubt in order to keep their 'guarantee' of deliving before 1pm!  |

So, after arranging and paying for guaranteed saturday delivery on an item, waited in all day, never arrived. Got the tracking number today from the vendor, stuck in RM tracking service, and they are claiming to have attempted a delivery, and I now need to take my non existent missed delivery card to retrieve it! What a bunch of jokers, no one knocked, no one called, no card left - I live on top of a shop, who said they hadn't seen any RM delivery guys coming to mine, or into the shop either. My feeling is that as my flat is up some stairs, whoever was supposed to be delivering it just couldnt be arsed or couldnt see the place immediately so just didnt bother. Dunno what I am supposed to do now, as I have no missed delivery card to claim the item with. Sorry - just needed to vent. Bloody RM wankers. |

After much deliberation, I have decided to buy...... *drumroll please*................neither! Going to get a provari instead, I'm too focussed on getting one so I will likely end up buying one as well anyway, so might as well get one! icon_shoppingm Thanks for all the advice though guys n gals, I'm sure there will be others trying to decide evic or SVD as well |

Hmm, more pro's for the evic, gonna keep me thinking! Not too worried about how heavy or large an svd is, I like a big one (ooh err missus!), but I do like to fiddle with techy bits, so thats a plus for the evic. Output limit is no prob for me on either - I never hit 5v, all my juices seem to fry at that. Gah! Now I dont know again! I'll be watching those pbusardo vids this afternoon, hopefully they will help me decide! Thanks again peeps, good to keep the info goin! |

Thanks for all the advice Going on what has been said I think I will go for the SVD, it being more robust is more important to me than extra features - also the telescopic aspect makes battery selection much easier. Goin to order in a week or so I think, just to give extra thinking time |

Hesta I posted the same query and after the feedback, I think the SVD won on a split decision. have a SVD arriving soon but would love to own both. I think this is the rematch SVD versus Evic. Hehe, well I'm leaning more towards the SVD already, I think I read through your thread, but as fast as things are always moving in the vaping world I thought it would be worth asking again, along with more people having one of them as well. Also, there is the thought that I could just wait and get a provari, I tried to buy the mini listed in the classies recently, but forgot about the extension cap, and decided against it, oopsie! |

Hi all, after my vamo bit the dust, I bought an itaste mvp, which is a cracking device, but i have no VV whilst its taking its sweet time to charge every couple of days! So, I'm currently trying to decide which shiny to get to supplement its downtime or even take top spot! I was initially going to grab a provari, but finances aren't allowing a new one at present, so settled on getting either an evic or an SVD, but - which one?? Ideally I am going to be using the 18650s I already have as my 18350s are used in my daytime mod - this is for at home Help me decide (they will be bought at fasttech as well, so I don't mind waiting for one!) |
