I purchased two radiators and 2 sets of valves for them from Victorian Plumbing. It turned out the valves were the wrong type and I returned them. Several months later, after investigating my return they tell me that they only received one set and sent me a photo to prove it.


It seems to me that someone there who deals with their returns stole the other one. The only other option is that the courier opened the box, took out one of the two smaller boxes inside and returned the other one. That's a bit far fetched.


Each set cost about ?35 and I'm loathe to just write it off but I don't know what options I have. Any ideas?

Unfortunately the contract to deliver is between you and the courier company and Victoria Plumbing is seen to be the innocent party in this situation


Your potential recourse is to put a claim into the courier company for a damaged and incomplete delivery but you may have to prove that you packed securely the items and get proof that they weren't received as you sent them.

The thing that may be in your favour is if the delivery driver took a photo of the package at point of delivery showing it was opened or damaged.


It's potentially a tough one to prove unless you have strong proof (photos) of how the package looked when you sent it and what was in it.


Good luck

I'm pretty sure I took out the optional insurance with the courier. I guess my option is to make a claim on that. What a hassle though given there's no logical reason their driver would interfere with the parcel and deliver half of the contents.

    • It didn't occur to me to ask. No idea if dieticians are employed within the NHS. It is just one line of enquiry among others. The GP mentioned it, not me.
    • I thought the most they sell in terms of hot food at londis is like pastries and sausage rolls and for hot drinks its like costa coffee but its always a convenience store. Doesn’t look too bad in my opinion considering that shop has been closed down ever since i moved here
    • Hi Busterb, Yesterday I turned up with a scanner & towels, hoping to take a deceased tabby down to TNV. The body was moved moments before arrival & had not been turned in to any vets, rescues or animal hospitals. I am wondering if this could have been the same cat & if someone just tried to move the tabby further away from the road. Please be warned, viewers discretion is advised. but this is what the deceased tabby looked like: https://www.facebook.com/groups/900015513463302/permalink/3729980853800073/  In any case, if you haven't been able to get someone to scan or take down to a vet, I can scan tomorrow morning.
    • Wholeheartedly recommend Aria. He was polite, responsive and sorted our leak, from an old tap on an old plumbing system, with no bother and on same day.
