2nd response from Amazon

On the same day as an article appears in Golwg re my little tiff with Amazon, the company finally send me positive response, following their previous not so positive one:

I'd have thought they'd offer me a bit more than the price of a stamp for my distress, but hey you don't make $100' s millions by being generous. I'm not sure whether I'll use them again though.


Update 13.4.07

God knows if Amazon read this blog, but following posting the above comments yesterday, I've now received this e-mail. Fair play to them.

Dear Rhys Wynne,

Further to my previous correspondence with regards to
the processing of order  by cheque payment, our
Management team have concluded their review of your issue and they
have agreed to provide a good will gesture to the value of GBP22.93.
This goodwill gesture will be in the form of a promotional
certificate which can be redeemed towards your next purchase with
Amazon.co.uk.

Please accept this goodwill gesture as an apology for
the inconvenience of having to forward us the cheque
payment again, and thus delaying the dispatch of the item to you.

Thank you for your understanding and patience with
regards to this matter.
