Send it all back!

Last year I bought a shelf unit thingie (the big one) and one of the end panels was slightly damaged. I phoned up to ask for a replacement and they sent a whole new unit. Two for the price of one, even if the end panel is a bit dented and scratched isn't too bad. IKEA aftersales, in my opinion, is awesome.

Minor inconvenience.

I drove 127 miles paid 150 quid for a desk I can't use and now I'm waiting in for a panel 8" x 6" while I should be out doing stuff. :mad:

Yep, that classifies as a minor inconvenience to me

Lol, with all the IKEA stuff we have, i have never had a missing piece.

IKEA stuff is handy when you have young kids, when their older i will upgrade to real oak and such

I found their support very good. I ordered a desk, lamp and something else from them. 1st desk was delivered damaged, 2nd was the wrong size and the 3rd was also damaged. I ended up driving 45 mins to replace it my self. They gave me a refund and petrol money which in the end worked out to be half the cost of my order.

i found their CS excellent. when we moved we lost several parts to our ikea furniture, called their CS line and they shipped them next day at no charge

easyrider · 21 Jul 2015 at 13:11

Ok Drama over

Now I just need 2 X 27" monitors

Well I have to say that I can't really complain at their customer service.They have done everything that they promised.However I am going to write to them commending them on their after sales service and will be requesting a refund of my petrol cost's for the inconvenience.

neil_g · 21 Jul 2015 at 13:25

good luck with that. youd have driven there either way.
