Hi Dritan,
We’re sorry to hear about your disappointment. Your order was unfortunately delayed due to the access panels being temporarily out of stock with the supplier. You were informed of this at the time, and your full order payment — including delivery — was refunded in full shortly after.
While we understand delays are frustrating, we always aim to communicate transparently and resolve issues quickly when they occur. Our team did their best to assist throughout, and we’re sorry this experience left you dissatisfied.
We wish you all the best going forward.
