    Delivery Issues
    Status:
    Resolved
    Ordered furniture from IKEA and they use AIT as their delivery service. I was told my items would be delivered between April 1 - April 3, and that I would be contacted by the delivery company for a delivery timeframe. Today is April 3, and still no contact from AIT. The tracking number they gave me does not work. And based on the other complains about this company on the BBB website, their own FB page, Reddit, and other reviews, this is the only way to get their attention and to get your items shipped to you, so I am not messing around and playing games. Im getting this process started now because I paid a lot of money for shipping and the company has not made any attempts to contact me or do the right thing.Im uploading a screen shot of my IKEA delivery information to show proof of the timeline. I am also uploading other reviews from other sources, including AITs own ******** page, in order to highlight the extent of their poor customer service and how common it is for customers packages to go missing or be damaged.If my items are not delivered by the end of this week, Im contacting my credit card company and filing a claim against this company and getting my money back. Thankfully our credit card company is amazing with claims. I actually just wanted the furniture, but if this is what I have to do to protect myself as a consumer then so be it. I can always spend my money elsewhere and get similar furniture.

    Ordered an expensive desk and tracked it online everyday so I could make sure I didn't miss any calls for delivery. Tracking says it took 13 days from pickup to get to it's delivery terminal. At that point I get a call (6 days later than expected) expecting to schedule a delivery but the guy tells me they lost my package. He said the label that was on my box fell off and ended up on another box. I've never heard of this kind of thing happening so it seems a bit fishy. The man on the phone told me to contact the manufacturer to figure out what to do since they have no way of finding the package without its label. I can't recommend a company that runs well behind schedule and can't do the one thing they're supposed to do, make a delivery.
