I am still waiting for my locks to arrive!!

Really f**ked off. He sent them on the 10th and gave me the tracking number and it confirms it was sent on the 10th but the Royal Mail just has it down as being in their network...

I phoned up and they said I have to wait until it has been 15 working days until it can be classed as lost. I hate the post in this county, complete joke

Yep, he has been great. Been in contact with him for a couple of days.

The Royal Mail just won't do anything to help. Even though it has a tracking number they don't know what depot it is at..so god knows what point a tracking number is.

My car has been sitting at the garage as well since last Thursday, very annoying as with all the snow coming the next couple of days , the post will be even worse than ever.

Finally got my locks delivered on Friday , the only problem is the garage is shut over the weekend  :angry:

Not sure mate how to get them lower, is why mine is at the garage to fix, I usually end up causing more trouble with the car when I go fixing things.
