I sure hope so, anyway.
Assembly is still underway…
And Hubby said that it will be only another fifteen minutes.
Boy, am I impatient or what?
Yep, I am impatient, are you?
Sadly, I didn’t know all these years that impatient can mean annoyed, irritated, edgy, intolerant, eager, keen, raring to go, (that’s more like it), anxious, in a hurry, hurried, hasty, impulsive, impetuous, rash, hotheaded, enthusiastic, excited (now we are back on track) as I always say TA DA!
Today was a test of all that.
I awoke way too early, first time in a very long time for this early, 3:32 A.M.!
Couldn’t sleep so I grabbed my cup of java and headed over here to turn this techno marvel on with the news, nah the Nate Show to my back on the TV, same one I saw yesterday on ABC at ten A.M., apparently it is on NBC in the 3-4 A.M. time slot, Geez I was wondering why even though it was supposedly cancelled last November that Tampa’s ABC was carrying it but none of our locals were.
Tired, not yet, but soon, while in this exhilarated awake-ness of the wee morning hours I checked our credit card accounts and to my astonishment my free delivery with a ten dollar refund offer became no refund with a $12.95 charge to my account!
Not good to talk to anyone when you are sleep deprived… any-who… I called the credit card company first and told them that I was refuting the charge and that I had no intention nor did I request this monthly charge for free delivery charges that the company that I ordered from provided with my over their limit of fifty dollars for my two dresses and one cardigan last month!
I clicked on the order form that said I was also entitled to a ten dollar refund. Not that rare a happening, why even Macy’s and Kohl’s offer ten bucks back with each order over fifty dollars at their stores, so why not this Dr. Leonard’s online shop?
I will get back to my stories, but Hubby being a man of his word has brought me a picture of the finale of the project!
And I feel that I must share; do you really want to see it?
You know I could finish the story and then shoot the pics in here lastly, hmm?
Nah… drum roll please………………………………………………………………………………………… BEFORE.
And AFTER….!
Back to the story, but wasn’t that worth waiting for? And I see that I am no longer incognito, but forget what you read, okay?
Anyway, I thought the ten dollars off was all from the merchant that I purchased my clothing from since it was right in the middle of my order form.
But I was so wrong… it was not!
And today I was billed on my card over a month later with a $12.95 charge and still no discount of the ten dollars, and to say I was upset would be a vast understatement!
Unbeknownst to my usual cool exterior when accused of not realizing I went nastily off on the woman who felt I was dotty, perhaps I am a bit but that is not for a stranger to say, ya know what I mean?
Any way it was still rather early and earlier still wherever this company was, but in the end even though I called my credit card provider first, which this insolent not nice person told me would not allow for my this months charge to be refunded… well she finally did and this charge would be a monthly fee for would you believe, ‘free delivery!, huh? Is it just me?
But wait, it gets better… you know that ‘free’ one time only credit score company that is promoted on the Today Show by their financial people; ScoreSense.com?
And so again I said what the heck, and loaded Hubby’s and my names up for our scores, it had been a couple of years since we did that, and it asked for our credit card numbers, blah, blah, blah… but this free introductory offer was only a dollar a piece and so I went for it, and sure enough that same day were billed on our charge one buck each… but today we were billed $29.95 each!
Uh, oh, I hear you all saying can this gal be this dumb?
I like to think it as trusting a world renowned TV show with reputable specialists in finance and so I just think someone goofed, and it wasn’t me!
So in the long run they were the nicer of the two and gave me a reference number and the amounts will be removed within the next couple of days!
Whew!
Life can be way too exciting some days, hmm?
On those miniscule harrowing life’s experiences and a bit of colorful happiness in our lives too, allow me to be the first to wish you all a very happy good night and ask you to kindly count all your blessings and share those overages and we will too!
And next time please be here or be square, ya hear?
