Still no AMS, 6 weeks later

According to the Black Friday terms anyone who ordered an AMS that did not turn up on or after the 5th of October gets a qualifying gift card equivalent to the difference in price.

As you all know, I received my AMS this week.

The form has excluded me. A support webchat will be made about this now.

If they think their poor handling of my situation requiring me to get the police involved because they chose not to do their legal obligation means the delivery date was the date of theft, they have another thing coming.

The date in law is the date it arrived to me from them, that was a couple of days ago.

I waited until 3 am to speak with WebChat to get the discount.

They told me they needed to create a ticket and promised to reply today.

They said, “It will take some time to read all the communications related to the case.”

Not a surprise given all the lies they added.

It took over 30 minutes to get to that agreement.

I wait to see if they honour this promise.

This is just wrong. I’m sorry you’re going through this. If bambu won’t make this right then I will. Send me a private message and I will order you a new ams unit and have it shipped to your house

Did you use a credit card to pay for it ?

If so, contact your card issuer and ask them to issue a chargeback for the missing goods. You have to wait a few weeks after order placement to allow the good to arrive, but you’ve likely reached that point.

Asked and answered before.

But, for those who do not scroll.

I used gift cards from the revenue of points I earned here.

If you think about it, they decided that I could not claw back the points they gave and then that means they devalued all the money designers earn to promote BL.

Pause and think about that for a while. It says so much in that one understanding of the problem.

We are in control of everything and as such, we can and will screw you over.

I have ordered a third AMS.

I will document its journey (hopefully) here.

I aim to be sitting at the front door on its arrival date/time.

Earlier today I have received a communication from DPD (the delivery company) that BL told them to expect my entire order as a single delivery (not split into multiple deliveries).

I have heard nothing from BL.

As usual, I will receive no notifications from the delivery company or BL before the day of delivery.

This obviously means there is no way of knowing when the package will arrive or what time.

As I wake up each day blind which takes a couple of hours to clear up, leaving my only working eye (75% function) able to see, depending on when they send the notification on the same day of delivery, I can be (and have been) blind when they arrive.

It is usually easier to simply not go to sleep before a delivery, however, not know WHEN the delivery day is, it really makes things hard.

As many of you know from my assistance here, I am often still awake at 7am as I find getting to sleep difficult.

It seems the 3rd AMS may be delivered tomorrow (23rd).

AMS is due for delivery today between 10;17am and 11:17am.

BL finally told me it is due in an email they sent @ 10:15am.

TWO WHOLE MINUTES before the delivery hour slot.

The only communication since the order.

I have received the AMS.

Despite the order summary listing all items purchased being shipped at the same time, it appears the order was split, this information changed at 10:17am today.

Nothing indicated this until 10:17am today. It appears DPD have been told about another delivery they are awaiting.

I have no idea how many of the other 21 items that I ordered will arrive in this next shipment.

It could be one, it could be all.

Why is communication so bad with Bambu Lab?

If they have enough information to tell the delivery company, why can’t they be bothered to indicate that to their customers?

I ordered 21 filament refills, I wonder it I will receive the full allotment of 5 (1 per four purchased) free reusable spools.

Both types of spool are currently for sale and the offer was until stocks last.

They lasted for my order to have been picked,

Hmm I think I saw one per order in small print, but hopefully I’m wrong

Anyway if you need and are willing to cover shipping I’m up to send you some, before I started only ordering refills I ordered quite a lot of full spools, so I have a bunch (of the old design)

They state 1 per 4 refills and a maximum of 5 free spools per order.

I comply with those.

The failed to include the promised reusable spools.

I didn’t receive 5, not even 1.

Is anyone else affected?

Visit the post and vote if you think Bambu Lab should be allowed to constantly get away with lies, thefts, inaction and indifference.

As my 2nd AMS arrived after the 5th of October cut off point for the sale starting, I am entitled to the price difference.

After wrangling with support, both webchat and tickets, they finally agreed early morning on the 22nd of October to provide the difference in price with a gift card.

They said they required 4 working days which came and went on the 25th of October.

I still haven’t heard anything.

I have updated the ticket again!

Just once, I would like BL to say something they can stick to.

Today I was granted a gift voucher $70 for the U.S. store.

Sounds great , but as many of you know and they certainly do as they have all my details including the qualifying order - I’m from the U.K. and thus require a U.K. gift card for the U.K. store for £70!

Even more annoying, the US price difference is $100 and they gave $70, they clearly knew it was the U.K. price difference.

At a certain point it stops being incompetence and becomes intentional acts designed to annoy.

It has been 13 days and BL support still have not resolved this issue.

Is it incompetence, ignorance, arrogance, it could be all of them.

Why keep asking us how they can improve when they can’t even do the basics?

This isn’t difficult, it has been approved already as it should have been, no one should have to explain how to get this right it isn’t rocket science.

This is where BL are holding themselves back, decent printers, but, useless support. It is rare to hear a good BL customer service story.

Finally!

I have received the Gift card for the price difference, just 14 days after it should have been a simple admin process. In the correct denomination for the correct country’s store.

I had to get a different department involved to move it along though.

If you’re from the UK why haven’t you contacted the relevant ombudsman/trading standards and let them take over?

You’ve already completed the first steps (tried to resolve it)

Distance selling laws are on your side
