The website says "Order by 1.00pm ( Monday to Friday) for Guaranteed delivery before noon next working day including Saturday"
It's 11:49 and the website says that my order is still processing (yes, I ordered before 13:00).
Was it £9.99 wasted?
I've used next day from CRC before..... and it wasn't. Won't be doing it again.
I made the mistake of picking next day a couple of times, never again. The delivery is next day, but only from when they send it and next day seems to take them longer to get the package out the door. Took about 3 days when I tried, and yes I ordered well before the cut off for same day shipping.
All 3 times I've used next day the order has taken about a week to arrive. Two of those where the wrong item too..never again will I pay for it.
I placed an order Wednesday afternoon, it arrived Thursday morning. That was free delivery
I've been let down a few times - if I want next day, I use Wiggle...
CRC next day seems to take longer than free delivery - as above they seem to take longer to dispatch it.
If they hadn't offered this service I would have bought my parts in the LBS. It seems to me that this is part of Chain Reaction Cycles strategy to take business away from brick and mortar shops.
I've complained to the ASA since it seems like this a pretty common occurrence.
