Upon shipping the remains of my beloved pet, Pet Meadow provided me with the incorrect tracking number. This led to a heartbreaking 24 hours from shipment to delivery during which time I thought the remains were lost in the mail. I realized something was wrong when Pet Meadow provided me with a window the courier was picking up the remains, and hours later the tracking was still showing the courier did not know the package's whereabouts. Immediately upon recognizing something was wrong, I left a message on Pet Meadow's after-hour urgent line. Knowing they had printed a new label, I suspected they gave me the incorrect tracking number, which they assured me was not changing when I specifically asked this question. The urgent phone line was pointless, as no one returned my call. Desperate to know the package was safe, I continued to call them the next day during their normal operating hours; none of the phone calls were answered. I also sent several emails (screenshot in photos), all of which were ignored. Almost 24 hours went by before I finally received a call and email back stating it would still be another hour before they could check on what happened. They stated they would have an update at 3pm, but they still waited until 4:55pm to call me; five minutes before they were set to close. Screenshot in photos. The package luckily ended up being delivered about an hour prior to their phone call under a completely different tracking number, as I suggested they check in one of my emails. It became apparent at the start of the phone call that they had no idea where the package was. When I interjected and said it was delivered an hour prior and they would have saved me immense stress simply by responding to my attempts to contact them and asking they check the tracking number, she rudely, defensively and unapologetically said that the emailed number was the only tracking number Pet Meadow had. This is alarming, as Pet Meadow specifically said they printed and fixed the new label to the package, which clearly listed the correct tracking number. This means that no one at Pet Meadow thought to cross check the email they sent to the label they printed. There was no genuine apology, and certainly no accountability or ownership for their extreme oversight. This was a package of cremated remains and memorials of our beloved animal we NEVER would have been able to replace. The carelessness, especially given their industry, is alarming. I sent a follow up email expressing my outrage, concern, and overall sadness by how this was handled, which was also ignored.
