Hi @EvansCycles. I bought @Lezyne Zecto Max from you in Nov 2023. It stopped working in Nov 2024. 2 of your customer service agents have told me you won't replace it - despite @Lezyne providing a 2-year warranty on all UK purchases, via @UpgradeBikes. Why such poor service?

Hello @UPS! Is it possible to speak to a human being about a parcel which you keep promising to deliver, but never actually do…? None of your systems seem to work!
