Wither Fulfilment..? (...so, my partner's a vampire...)

Fulfilment Partners From Hell

It seems an apology may be in order...

I've been told that social media is a happy place for happy people, and not at all the appropriate space for fans of justice & that sort of thing.?

And that people on SM like only uplifting & upbeat posts, with fantastical images of abundance, un-besmirched by reality's grit & shards.?

So here's an image relating to partnerships & fulfilment and is full of fantasy & growing abundance.?

It's a graph of the fantastical uplift in the average frozen storage costs per BAHD order each month. (averaged out to illustrate the actual changes)?

It shows e2b logistics' (aka Eat to the Beat / Global Infusion Group) charges metastasising from the agreed ￡1.09 right up to ￡15.50, 18 months later, and despite my constant queries & protests - that's quite an uplift...?

So the abundance from my burgeoning online retail business was enjoyed solely by Global Infusion Group, as the profits were leached out of my little one-man brand.

All the while they "misplaced" & misreported stock & fulfilled Big Apple's orders at the (admitted) & catastrophic error rate of 26.7% [FYI the industry average is 1-3%]

They also withheld from Big Apple information on its rights to refunds for errors, rights that were standard for their other customers.?

When I insisted on a service-level agreement, and that they explain & review their storage charges, they refused & put my account summarily on stop - meaning I could no longer trade.? and continued to invoice me at inexplicable (& still unexplained levels) for stock they had seized and refused to release or let me monetise.

As a result of their continued refusal to discuss, compromise or allow me access to my stock in trade ?6,780 of my sausages, buns, toppings & drinks?sit, now perished, in Eat to the Beat's freezers, with another 4620 set to join them as food waste on November 20th.?#FulfilmentPartnersFromHell

Just as painful as the lost revenue (approx. ￡6k + ￡11k on 20/11) is their refusal to make these meals available to food banks, charities or local organisations.?

So it's abundance for Global Infusion Group, but nothing but loss for the rest of us.?

Btw if I sound a little bitter, well, that's because I am. ???

But now, no longer dependent on their services and with most of the harm already done, after years of what amounts to corporate abuse at the hands of a fulfilment partner - I'm still standing & finally able to fight - to the bitter end, red in tooth & claw - to prevent their expensive lawyers, affording them an escape from all scrutiny & accountability for what's been happening.

As a soul-mate once said:

"I'm mad [and #BAHD ;o] as hell, and I'm not going to take this any more."

So it's beginning to look a lot like David (with a #BAHD attitude) vs. a Vampire Goliath named GIG, and it's time to make them #LetGoOfOurWeiners

N.B. For the avoidance of any doubt - and despite all this fighting talk - I very much need your full support - and in my corner too, rather than just ringside with popcorn.

So please do show your support in the form of words of encouragement, tactics and reposts & discussions with other good souls.

And if you are in any way skeptical re. the above; then I urge you to read the "e2b to Not to Be...?" narrative above and to?have a good read of the evidence contained in the links too, and please?then sign my petition forthwith, leaving some comments for E2b Logistics & sharing it on SM too (tagging @BigAppleHotDogs)?

Your participation is vital in the successful rescue of all those perfectly good meals, still in the cold grabbing hands of this diabolical deaf, dumb & blind giant, that sucked my little business dry & then tried to break it. ????????????????????

Btw, if do happen to know know any other 3PL fulfilment horror stories - I'd love to hear them. So please do share them, using the hashtag

#FulfilmentPartnersFromHell

With my franks in advance, and with every wurst wish.?
