  1. Mail Order Cycles www.mailordercycles.co.uk avoid this company like
    the plague.
    This unreliable company cooperates with Amtrak delivery service
    ( www.amtrak.co.uk ) offering 'free delivery' with your bike on the
    arranged day.
    Having waited all the day round I didn't get my consignment, although
    on the tracking internet tool at the end of the day the status had
    changed from 'with driver' to 'failed delivery attempt'. And then,
    calling the company to find what's going on, I heard that I'd missed
    the parcel and would have to pay for another attempt! And if not, the
    bike would get back to Mail Order Cycles and I'd be charged for this
    shipping and also restocking fee (about £50 in toto). The manager of
    Mail Order Cycles when I asked her to solve the situation was rude and
    inconsiderate towards me: 'There are many unfair things in live!' -
    she said and 'According to my records you missed the delivery'. So
    they value more they data-base records than customers? Still don't
    have my bike although they have my money. Don't risk, at least as long
    as they haven't changed the middleman delivery company - Amtrak - and
    the manager of Mail Order Cycles is the same.

    I do not know if the delivery companies in the UK operate very differently
    from the ones over here in the USA. But, UPS, FedEx, DHL, all will attempt a
    second delivery at least. After that, you are given the opportunity to
    contact the company for a later pickup from the terminal.

    Free delivery means that somebody, in this case the store is still paying
    for it. Again, forgive my ignorance, but I was under the impression that a
    second attempt is usually in the shipping arrangement.
