Hi Tasha,
I completely understand your frustration, and you are absolutely right - two weeks after ordering, with the label created and your acceptance of the 30% cashback based on an imminent dispatch, there should have been movement by now. This is not acceptable.
I have just checked your tracking directly. The parcel was registered with the courier on 17 July but is still at "information received" and has not yet been physically collected - that timeline is completely unacceptable.
I am escalating this to my management team as an urgent priority right now. They will be investigating directly with the courier to locate the parcel and determine what can be done to get it moving, or if that is not possible, what our resolution will be. Given the seriousness of this situation and your timeline, I will ensure you get a concrete answer within 24 hours on what happens next.
I am genuinely sorry this has been allowed to drag on like this.
Warm regards,
Anna

Would like to cancel my order
Sent from my iPhone
Hi there,
Thank you for reaching out, and of course, I completely understand.
I can see order 2499 currently shows as label created and still at the information received stage, meaning it has not yet been collected by the courier. I am checking right now whether we are able to stop it in time.
I will come back to you as soon as I know more, and if we can catch it in time, I will get the cancellation processed and a full refund arranged straight away.
If you don't mind sharing, it would really help us to know what prompted the cancellation, purely so we can look at improving things for the future. There is no pressure to answer though, we will get this sorted for you either way.
Warm regards,
Anna

Hi there,
Thank you for explaining, and I am sorry it is not going to arrive in time for you.
I can see order 2499 is still showing as label created and has not yet been collected by the courier, so there is still a good chance we can catch it before it ships. I am actively checking on this right now and will come back to you the moment I know more.
If we are able to stop it in time, I will get the cancellation confirmed and a full refund processed straight away.
Thank you for your patience, I will be in touch very shortly.
Warm regards,
Anna

Hi Tasha,
I'm so sorry, we were not able to cancel order 2499 in time, it has now gone out with the courier.
I have talked to the higher-ups and we can handle a 30% cashback (£16.48) back to your original payment method without needing to stop the order or arrange a return, does this interest you? Or would you rather wait until it arrives and send it back for a full refund instead, entirely your call.
Just let me know which you would prefer and I will get it moving straight away.
Warm regards,
Anna

The 30% cash back would be perfect. I’m sure will be able to use it some other time

Still no further forward on this order. It hasn’t even been dispatched yet. I thought it couldn’t be cancel because was been dispatched but that’s not the case at all.

Hi Tasha,
Thank you for your message, and I completely understand the frustration here.
I can see your order is now in the courier's system at the information received stage - this means they have registered it and it's about to be collected for shipment. At this point, unfortunately, it can't be cancelled or stopped, which is why we offered the 30% cashback that you kindly accepted.
I'm going ahead now and processing that 30% cashback (£16.48) to your original payment method. It should land within 3 to 5 business days.
You can track your order's progress here: https://marlow-london.com/apps/parcelpanel?nums=YT2619800708596855
From where it is now, we estimate it should arrive within about 8 to 12 days.
Again, I'm really sorry it won't arrive in time for you. This cashback is our way of making this right.
Warm regards,
Anna

I think 2 weeks for an item to be dispatched is absolutely ridiculous.
I did accept money off on the understanding that the label was created and was due to be dispatched. 14 days ago I ordered and nothing.
I’m not a difficult person and very understanding but this is just unacceptable.
However, since I am not allowed to cancel If this isn’t dispatched within the next 2 days I will have no option but to have my sister (a lawyer) take this further.

Hi Tasha,
I completely understand the frustration, and you're right to be upset - I'm sorry.
To be straight with you: your order is genuinely still sitting at the very first tracking stage (information received) and has not yet been physically collected by the courier, so I can't promise it moves in the next two days. I don't want to give you another vague timeline, so I'm chasing our fulfilment side directly today to find out why it hasn't moved.
The 30% cashback we agreed has now gone through to your original payment method and should land within 3 to 5 business days.
I'm sorry this has dragged on the way it has, and I'll come back to you as soon as I have real news on the dispatch.
Warm regards,
Anna

We are now 4 days later and still no further forward.
Since you can’t cancel I will now contact my bank and lawyer
