rierie 0 Report post Posted June 20, 2009 had a very very very terrible experience with Extreme Lightings. I know that a lot of us are customers of them. i've to acknowledge that their prices are very competitive. but, in terms of customer service, both htb and i cannot take it. first delivery - we checked the chandelier lights and concluded that there are too many scratches. almost all crystals has a couple. Alex was very nice. agreed to help us change. then he called to say that sure have scratches one. to me, i don't mind have a few scratches. but definitely not a couple of them on almost all crystal. long story short, their boss say they will ensure that the next delivery will have no scratches. second delivery - this early afternoon. the moment the delivery man open the box. i saw a super big dent on the body the light. don't even need to check!!! called alex immediately. he said need to wait till monday then can change. i was like "what? you were the one who told me that u are delivering today. thats why i arrange the electrician to come later. now u tell me have to change the date again? shouldn't u have check the lights before sending it to us?" after much ding dong, we agreed for them to come next tues during lunch time. and i made the necessary arrangement with the electrician. poor electrician, he was aly on his way to my house. so pai seh to him. right after the delivery man left, alex called again to ask if can change delivery to tues 3pm. i said that we couldn't make it at 3pm. even if he delivers it, no one will be there to collect and check the goods. ding dong back and forth again. finally agreed to deliver at tues lunch time. 2 hours later, he called me and these were his exact words. "Ms Lee, i just WASTED 2 hours to help u change. can you make sure u are at home in 30 mins time? i get the delivery man to deliver it to u." at that point in time, i was at the other end of singapore. what the h***? he expects me to rush down on the basis that he "wasted" 2 hours to help me change the lights?? not wanting to quarrel with him, i said to him in the nicest tone that i can come up with "alex, i thought we agreed it to be delivered on tues lunchtime? now u want me to travel back?" after much ding dong again, htb and i finally agreed to relent by compromising to reach in 1.5 hours. 2 hours after the conversation (note that we agreed that it's 1.5 hours and he was the one who say he can deliver in 30 mins), the light finally arrived. this time, i don't even want to check. told htb that this is my last straw. asked him to check that there's no major scratches (those that can see from afar). htb checked and said still got a lot of scratches. i was fuming with anger aly. but being sick of ding dong here and there, i decided to accept the goods. cuz at the end of the day, we're just going to hang it up there. no one will take the crystals down and see. lesson learnt - there's no cheap and good stuff. it's either we are too demanding or there's sth wrong with them.
