Unrelated nasty IKEA trick I noticed:
I ordered a desk online. The previous time I ordered something from IKEA, I received a bazillion messages from them on the day of delivery.
This time, I received one message: the desk was being picked up. After that: total silence. At the end of the day, I called to ask what's up. Apparently they didn't have the desks, and it would be months until they would be back in stock.
What I learned: If you don't get stalked about the status of your delivery, you don't need to stay at home. You're not getting it.
What I did: told them I'd wait for the next delivery, and expressed my annoyance. Got a coupon because of that, then cancelled. I couldn't help myself: if they play tricks on me, I have to return the favour.
- justsomehnguy 5y agoDepends on IKEA/country I suppose? I recently tried to order a chair (it was in stock when I ordered). On the delivery day I got delivered two other items in the same order and later I got a call about how they couldn't deliver the chair because it out of stock. Got a full refund for the chair price (without any action on my part), a coupon for smaaaal amount and a 1/3rd part of the delivery fare as a 'compensation'.
