I just tried to order a load of AA/AAA/button batteries via CPC.

1st time - order accepted for delivery to work (a place CPC deliver arse
loads to). 4 days later - no goods. Phoned them - oh, you specified a
different delivery address to you CC address on a first order - order
cancelled. Eventually found the email about it in my SPAM folder (which
hardly every gets false positives).

Complained. They said - here, have an account number (WTF x 2?) -that'll
work.

2nd time - used that number, placed the same order, accepted. 2 days later -
order on Hold. Another email in SPAM.

I lost the will to live and bought them from Argos.

I tend to use RS these days - seems less painful.
