    Is your comment regarding accessibility @marybottomley, or another issue?

    How have you addressed the issues? Verbally or written format?

    You might want to read this post we made earlier in the year @marybottomley, if your concern relates to the accessibility of a website or app in particular.

    I had issue this week I bought a table and chairs online 

    When I got a call about delivery I explained I was in a wheelchair so could they ensure it came after 3pm so I wasn't on my own 

    As they said delivery was contactless i knew I couldn't get it in myself 

    They said they couldn't ensure delivery time but would get email that morning and delivery was anything from 7am to 9pm 

    I told them if I was alone at the time I would just send it back with them as if would be left unsecured outside or block the door 

    Fortunately the email came and delivery was 5pm to 9pm slot

    Ah, so is that why you're struggling to get them to pick it up @marybottomley? 

    Have you had any luck finding the right person to email?
