don't they come out with a load of b***

I'm so pleased you got your money back, though why a cheque? hope it clears!  The whole episode leaves a bad taste doesn't it. 

I buy my computer equipment from Novatech (Reading or Portsmouth branch) or online with Ebuyer.  Direct from the manufacturers like Dell are also more trustworthy than these smaller outlets or even the well known high street chain.

Merry Christmas
Jenny

I have also have a Toshiba, and it works faultlessly - just so that others don't think that Toshibas are a load of .... Tosh  ;D ;D ;D

Bought from Morgan, one of the distributors rather than a retailer

I had 4 faulty TV's from Currys and kept taking them back for exchange, finally on a hot summer day wearing T shirt and shorts I demanded to see the manager then told him that I would sit in his shop until he found me a TV that would not break after 5 minutes, and every hour he kept me waiting I would remove an article of clothing.

I got an upgrade to the latest model and the explanation why the others did not work - a design fault!

Not that this helps much but hoped it would cheer you up before Christmas.

Good luck and demand you rights.

Hi,
This is unrelated to the laptop topic but have just joined RootsChat and am looking for a way to contact sooziecats as I think we may be related on the Wanklyn side of the family. Cant find a way of sending her an email direct. Can anyone help?

Hi Frowna

If you post again, you will be able to use the personal message system to contact her - I'm not sure that she has been online recently but she should get an email to say that you've sent a PM.

Replying to this counts as an extra post.

Kind regards, Arranroots  ;)
