UPDATE: Purolator has refused to issue a refund, stating that the situation was out of their control, despite abysmal customer service and zero communication... Worst courier service ever!
Purolator, the company of choice when you want to pay 100$ to have your documents lost... Despite being told that my guaranteed delivery was BEFORE 10:30 am on Thursday (October 25), it has yet to be delivered AND no one can tell me where the package is.
So far various Purolator agents have:
1. Told me that a tracking specialist would call me with an update today-- Never happened
2. Blamed me for dropping off the package too late--I paid for next available drop off date, which was Thursday morning, how exactly is this my fault...
3. Confirmed that the current location of my package is unknown and I just have to "wait it off"
4. Dragged their heels with issuing a refund, which honestly should have been generated instantly when they missed the "guaranteed delivery service"
5. Provided no apology, next steps, or solutions
I feel incredibly guilty that my friend's Visa application is now delayed because I chose an unreliable courier with terrible customer service. Future customers be warned, avoid Purolator! I hear carrier pigeons are more reliable these days...
