Vi skulle bruge tre plader krydsfiner skåret i forskellige bredder. Det klarede Søren til ug med kryds og slange - og vi havde en herlig stund med sjov og alvor. Søren er virkelig en god medarbejder for Silvan i Frederikssund - vi kommer igen - bare ikke fredag, for da har Søren fri!

Sød og serviceminded personale der hjalp mig med de vare jeg havde bestilt. Har kun givet 4 stjerner da jeg så deres stueplanter som stod i bagene sol og som så meget triste ud. Fik min plante sat prisen ned da den så meget trist ud
Bestilte Gasbeton på hjemmesiden til levering, som kom hurtigt. Dog var der ca. 10% af blokkene som var helt eller delvist ødelagt, og deres lagerstatus var heller ikke korrekt, og de annullerede dele af ordren, da det var for sent at finde en anden løsning. Nu afventer jeg hvad de gør med de ødelagte blokke, og om jeg igen skal betale for transport af de nye.
Dårlig information om afhentningssted, min click og college pakke var ikke registreret i jeres system, selvom jeg havde modtaget mail om det. Jeres “ første” servicearbejder kunne ikke finde pakken og den tilkaldte nye medarbejder blev lige undervejs taget at en anden medarbejder….tjah 20 minutter for at afhente en click og collect pakke er ikke helt optimalt !!!
