599210 2007-10-22 21:26:00 Hi there, I'm new to this forum . . .

Anyway I ordered and paid for a modem from Madkiwi, money went through and I got this email .

"The comments for your order are

out of stock due in september



Your order has been updated to the following status .

New status: backorder"

Strange I thought as I ordered it at the end of September . Anyway I forgot about it for a while (exams at the moment) and then after a couple weeks emailed to ask what was going on . No reply .

Rang them, got an answering machine saying they'll be back after Labour weekend .

Now I have emailed twice more asking for a refund . No reply .

Yay, looks like I'll get to go to the Disputes Tribunal .

PCtek we can be witnesses for each other :)

That's why you wait for them to tell you they have stock before you pay them . .

This is on their website (which is www . madkiwi . com)


Important notice:
Madkiwi computers office will be closed from the 16th October until the 24th October orders placed during this time will not be processed until the 25th .
No courier pickups or drop-offs will be available .

This is probably why you haven't got a reply yet

secondly, before you go to disputes if you really can't get anything out of them just go to their address:

5 kupari place
Glenfield
Northshore
Auckland

if you don't live in auckland just wait, they will most likely email you back anyway

599213 2007-10-23 00:17:00 Hi everyone thanks for your replies .

Thanks for that info Agent_24, that made me feel a bit better . I am still asking for a refund, as I had emailed them on the 7th of October and received no reply .

Also I really can't understand how a PC parts supplier has such terrible customer service .

I'll post an update on the situation when I can finally communicate with someone from Madkiwi . I'll send a carrier pigeon if I have to .

well hemade a good point. if you really want to know something, a quick google search will reveal it much sooner than a forum, and requires less collective effort.

By a simple Google search I found the answer in 10 sec where as it took you how long? :rolleyes:
