WTF or Durham Strike Again!

#1 Post by phaedra1106 »

After getting my FAC back with a sec.1 shotgun missing Durham sent me a replacement which I got on Wednesday :good:

Just got todays post and guess what?, yep, they've sent me another one!

Doesn't inspire confidence in them does it.

Sh!t happens, as they say! :lol:

At least on the bright side you got your S1 SGC eventually, so that's a good result. :good: :lol:

The inaccuracies on Durham FACs are something to behold. :cool2: The only reason I didn't give mine straight back when I collected and saw all the mistakes is that I had a new rifle coming that week and I knew I'd not get it back in time. Once I've got my MARS my FAC will be going back to be put right.

It's a real shame as Durham used to be spot on :bad:

I reckon their self esteem and self confidence must be at rock bottom.
It's a great shame as one time they were one of the best and most efficient.
I'd like to know their staff turn over rate - I would imagine they'd need a hide of a rhino to survive in that department.

Going by posts on FBUK alone, it seems Durham FLD has become a byword for incompetence and cockups.
