So I call them and question the integrity of the postal system as it is a fairly large box and it is strange that it can go missing. When I made reference to the letter, the person mentioned that they are not honouring the $50 refund.... i was dumbfonded when I heard it... told them it is amazing how they can churn out a letter and not honouring it.... the person then said they will only refund the postage cost... CASE CLOSED
the person kept saying that I should get insurance next time to prevent such things from happening and I replied saying, if Australia Post is not able to deliver a simple parcel and Australia Post is using this "blackmail" of we consumer having to buy insurance, registered mail, etc - it is simply ridiculous...
If given a chance, I really hope they revamp Australia Post and their postage cost is simply rude to talk about...
