I also reported a book before Christmas as faulty and they also emailed me
back saying that there was nothing wrong with the book, even though it is
obvious if you listen to the whole book that there is a whole section missing,
a major section about the theft of military equipment so not a minor part of
the plot.
I am not sure that there is much we can do. Despite receiving reassurances that
the catalogue would be sorted out in the “New Year” I am still waiting for
books I asked to be transferred from the main TB catalogue, to the Overdrive
catalogue in November to arrive. The team has proved supremely indifferent to
issues and suggestions that I and others make which may improve the service.
The attitude appears to be that you can abandon the service and get your money
back or just put up with the poor delivery and lump it.
