hello
a few months ago i contacted a company about coming to messure for a stairlift, and i been emailing them and i know they are in forres near aberdeen but at the moment i cant seem to get an answer or a date of when they will next be up on the orkney islands.
i just emailed them again as the last email said they will let me know today, well i wont let it rest as i found if you dont keep harrazing some people you dont get any where, anyway this time i said i need to get it fitted as soon as they can as i having to find other ways of going up the stairs, ie, on all fours a cross between crawling and standing, you know what i mean, anyway this way i go go quite fast as long as i watch what i do and stand up when i get to the top, coming down is easier as i got 2 rails one side and the other on the other side, the things you got to do.

Hi only
This thing makes me so angry, I dont know what gone wrong with this country, but getting jobs done on time is a thing of the past, how annoying that they cant even answer your email, if it were me I would send loads of emails till they answered :roll:
Hope you hear something very soon, let us know how you get on.

Me too i hate this kind of thing it makes me so mad :x :x :x :x :x :x :x :x :x :x :x :x I dont ask for much all i want is a striaght answer its not as if there is many places thet come to where i live, it makes you so mad when people muck me about, that is one thing that gets me mad more than anything other than bossy people and i cant stand that and also people you cant trust, dont it just make you sooo crosssylvia0 -
So are they thinking that it is not worth travelling to Orkney?
If you haven't done so already, try calling and/or writing to the actual owner of the company advising you are disappointed with their lack of communication and interest and also say something along the lines of that due to your arthritis you are obviously always in touch with and referring to fellow sufferers companies, gadgets etc that you are highly satisfied with and again are surprised that the company through their lack of service is potentially losing out on future referrals and business.
How frustrating for you. I take it there are not many companies that cover your geographical area?
Good luck.

Hi Only,

Hi, Thats really bad, supposing you couldn't manage, I wonder what they would do, or if you had an accident? Sometimes these things make me want to SCREAM!!! :shock:
Do you have a doctor or a occupational therapist or even physio, who could speak or write to them on your behalf? Just a though.
Hope you get things sorted soon, all the worry must be making you feel bad. Love Sue0 -
