I'm prepared to give it another go but if this continues I'll have to do the same.

They've started offering boxes without fresh fruit but what's the point of that? The fresh fruit is the best bit.

I had one box not arrive AT ALL in the last fortnight and now today's has failed to show up.

I found it annoying they decided to 'half-refund' the one that went missing; I responded saying if I ordered a DVD from amazon and it never arrived then I would certainly not be happy with recieving half of my money back, although I understand postal losses are not always directly their fault.

I'm emailing them now to let them know another has gone astray and see what they say, however, things aren't looking bright for graze

I don't think it's their fault tbh, the post is chaos at the moment, although it hasn't been publicised that much

I do feel sorry for them on the matter, but at the same time, my other mail & deliveries are arriving every day, on schedule as usual.

I understand alot of this is probably out of their hands, but when you pay for a service on a specified day, it's not on if you fail to receive it on numerous occaisions.

Jingo, go back to the page where you reported the first one late and report it again. You should get a full refund, not a half refund. Both my no shows this week got full refunds. The system does work - they give a half refund if the box is one day late (to cover the fresh fruit), and a full refund if it is two or more days late (or a complete no show).

I also note that they've given up fighting the postal strike and have decided not to send fresh fruit out at all. Anyone who specifically wants the fresh fruit should either cancel their boxes or set a holiday. We may be in for the long haul on this one.

My post is now running consistently at three days late - two items posted Monday just arrived (including one of the missing Graze boxes - fresh fruit not in good shape, as expected - though it's grapes which I already have in the fridge).

Just put an order in finally!

Think this code might work for a free one:

When the thread was started, my workplace provided food, so there wasn't much point

Can't get it delivered to work but ordered for Saturday and will try not to scoff it all weekend!
