Which number have you been calling? I'd recommend 094159002 which is the parent companies number, I have dealt with them a number of years, and I am sure they would be happy to take your feedback and ensure others don't have a similar experience. 

 

It's certainly not what I'd have expected from Avalon, customer service has never been an issue in the past in my dealings with them.

 

Either way I think a call to CDL should get whatever is wrong sorted. 

 

On the plus side they did dispatch the goods. 

 

I called the numbers listed on their website:

Contact Phone Numbers:
General Enquiry
Vaughan Winiata: 021 08 111 888
Email: vaughan@cdl.co.nz 
Service & Repair: 
Ashley Moloney: 09 415 2826
Email: ashley@cdl.co.nz
Hours: Monday - Friday, 9:00am - 2:30pm

As of today no reply from them at all, not that I am still expecting one; absolute nil reply to both my phone message and emails.

But thanks for the tip; I will definitely try to ring the number you recommended and see how that goes, as I'm interested in several other items on their site but a bit set back at the moment due to the poor service.
