I had a meningitis wristband that I always wore in memory of my friend who passed away from that. It was too big on me and fell off and I lost it. On July 10, I called the Meningitis Foundation of America to order another one. My credit card was charged the following day for it. I was told that it would be shipped out the same day as I got charged for it. On July 24, I still had not received it, so I called back and was told that it would be shipped out the same day. It is now the 31st. To this day I still have not received my wristband. I have, however, been charged for two. I don't know what I should do. Since this is a small charge (each wristband costs $2) I don't know what they would do or if they would even listen to me if I complained. Should I just let this go and order another one?
since it's a non-profit organization, i say that you go ahead and purchase another one... you may end up with two - of course, you may not. either way, the money goes to a good cause, so just keep that in mind.
Even though the fee is small and it's going to a good cause, they should still have good business practices. If they continue to mess things up like this for other people and when larger sums of money are involved, it could cause them to have integrity issues. People might not trust the security of their transactions, etc.
So I called them. The woman I spoke with the first time around said that she was on vacation and just got back today and is sending it out today. I clearly picked the wrong job if she works someplace where she can take 3 weeks vacation in a row. My mom has 5 weeks vacation/year and isn't allowed to take more than two at a time.

Eh, could have been medical. But good that you're getting it

Yeah, but unless you are on the board or you are one of the top execs you are probably making chicken feed.
