Not again !

Almost daily now we get a ring on the doorbell another fast food delivery none of us have ordered. Someone thinks it's funny I guess but I feel sorry for the people having to bring it out and the shop losing out on the sale.

So annoying

Re: Not again !

Have you upset any one lately in your area Linda?

They must have a phone number of the person who is calling, they can then block them or report them.

Re: Not again !

Have you put your husband on a diet? He might be secretly ordering food.

Might be an idea to ring the shops involved and let them know.

Re: Not again !

That's nasty business. And should it continue you could want to order yourself one time and find you are blacklisted.

I would talk to the manager and insist they do something.

Linda ? Who's Linda

Anyway Nathan's ringing round now to tell places we don't want any deliveries. Been five this week you'd think they'd have realised to stop them already.

Re: Not again !

Julie, maybe the business could call you personally to ask if you really ordered?

I think you deserve a free meal for compensation. This has to be annoying and they should have stopped after the second time.

Re: Not again !

Years ago, I heard of people doing this. Also ordering flowers and having them delivered...then the flower shop is out the money...but now you have to have a credit card for the flowers so that took care of that.

I know here, if you order a pizza, you have to give the phone number and they call you back, but I don't know how that is working out.

Childish thing to do, that is for sure.

I agree with Susie here. The shop needs to check it out.

Another thing is, if you really ordered one now Julie, would they ever believe you?
