shipping nightmare!

[DeanS]

I'm sooooooooooo happy everything turned out well for you Jessica...thought up a name yet?

 

[Jacqui]

Great to see all is well. I hope you have demanded a partial refund from UPS. You paid for overnight, but didn't get it.

Yes I will be doing that.

I assume that they will consider it, "an act of God" and beyond their control and not pay. They never pay for late deliveries here, even tho they guarantee folks they will be here by 10:30am knowing full well it will not be until atleast 4pm that they deliver.

Just so glad he arrived and is doing well. Looks like a wonderful animal and well worth all your months of waiting.

So happy it all worked out! I have been keeping up with this thread and anxious for her to arrive, she really is beautiful!!!

I am so happy for you Jessica...Praise God she arrived safely! She looks so beautiful! Yes, can't wait to hear the name you picked for her. Yes, for mechanical issues that first night, I would demand a full refund as you are entitled to it. However, for any weather delays they do not give refunds as that is out of their control.

Good to see a happy ending!

I was caught in a similiar situation only in mid January a couple years ago. Needless the say I did not have a happy ending and the snake passed on.

You won't get any refund - It was a weather delay, and the weather involved was incredibly severe.........Grand Father in Tennessee got to see his whole neihborhood destroyed.......

I am so sorry to hear about your grandfathers neighborhood. Those storms were really bad, and my thoughts and prayers go out to all those who were affected.

Thanks everyone! She is beautiful isn't she... lol. I had named her Claire but becuase of all the trouble we had getting her here, we thought a name associated with her travels would be appropriate. It is just hard to think of one when I have been calling her Claire for the past 2 months
