Paid extra for one-day delivery but item not delivered or refunded.
“They promised one-day delivery for an additional cost, which I paid,”
Reviews show a pattern of responsive customer service: many customers report same‑day or next‑day replacements and named staff resolving issues quickly. A consistent theme is that fragile items sometimes arrive damaged in transit, and the company frequently replaces them promptly. A minority of reviews cite delivery failures, disputes over paid next‑day delivery, or specific product faults (for example leaking jar seals) and some complaints about marketing communications. Consumers buying fragile glassware should inspect parcels on arrival, choose delivery options carefully, and contact customer service promptly if items are damaged or missing.

Rinkit.com had a Coir doormat that I liked, so I ordered one from them.
They promised one-day delivery for an additional cost, which I paid, and Rinkit sent it via Hermes, so only God knows when it will reach because neither Rinkit nor Hermes knows when it is expected to arrive.
Neither Rinkit nor their representatives offered an explanation for why they couldn't be bothered to deliver the item as requested; furthermore, they have not yet issued a refund.
Is it even possible for companies in the United Kingdom to give customer service?
Even if this isn't even close to being true, accepting payment for next-day delivery and then failing to even attempt it is nothing short of dishonest.
