alterations to a ringmain electrics carried out by DIY with no part P, the question begs "what insurance?" Its no accident that cable is now date stamped, and insurance companies will use the info……..

Hmm data protection says they must give then to you (although they can charge a nominal fee) and I wouldn't touch the disclaimer with a barge poll.

Having said that when we do retinal photo's for peeps we are happy to provide a free copy if they bring in some form of data storage device

Hmm best I had, woke up in a strange place, turns out I had had a pretty good night in the staff quaters at a local hotel with one of the waitresses (long b4 I was married btw)

damn good thread, I just got a USB turn table and have been converting all my old missio, sisters and all about eve stuff to digital

I had similar problem recently, pressure release valve died on my boiler, I knew what was wrong but thought i would get someone to fix it, tried a few peeps and got "call out £x plus parts + labour to fix If that really is the problem". Once I knew the X= anything form 50-100 let alone the other bits I went and ordered the £8.38 part and fixed it myself.

I have one of the logitech 3 i stations, which has the input you need and does everything i need for travel speakers

my old washer i had for 12 years never dryed it once, never had mould either, but up to you i guess

OMG after all this tooing and froing am I reading right that you bought this off the net?

If so none of the above may apply as the website may not be UK registered………….

If goods do not conform to contract at the time of sale, purchasers can request their money back "within a reasonable time". (This is not defined and will depend on circumstances)

taken from the sale of goods act directly the word reasonable is open to vinterpretation………….

TJ the imprtant word that you seem not to want to read is DISCRETION as I posted some retailers discretion will say its onlt 1 day, others might say 364, its down to the type of goods being sold and the interpretation of the law by the retailer. Until someone stands their ground and brings a test case to the courts the retailers can do what they want.
I am in no way saying this is a good thing and in my industry customer service has to go way beyond these minimums, but that word discretion means the reailer does not have to adhere to any set timescale.

not sure on that point tbh but dont think it changes your status as a creditor, one hing in your favour when administrators are involved all financial outlay(including staff hire) has to be approved by the administrator

TJ reread point 1 of scardys post above you really are over arrogant AND WRONG!!

sorry to say no guarantee of pay as you are just another creditor, who comes somewhere behing tax man VAT and administrators/banks when assets are shared between creditors

OH and btw Mr TJ my knowledge comes form having worked in retail as salesperson/manager and buisness owner for over 20 years, so am pretty sure of my facts here

Thankyou scardypants that pretty much supports everything i said

Thankyou scardypants that pretty much supports everything i said

It gives the retailer discretion to decide on "suitable timescale" they could deem suitable as 1 or 100 days thats called discretion and there customer service is affected in response to this

If goods do not conform to contract at the time of sale, purchasers can request their money back "within a reasonable time". (This is not defined and will depend on circumstances)

from your own link, as said this gives the retailer discretion, do you not know when to give in…………….

TJ read "REASONABLE TIMESCALE" this gives the seller discretion to interpret as they see fit, you are on a lodeser in this one M*dont argue it.

TJ isnt what you have quoted basically what i said, and btw YOU DO NOT HAVE AN AUTOMATIC RIGHT TO A REFUND it is a very popular misconception, and as I stated this is an inferred timeframe not an inlaw time which is why sellers can enforce the repair rather than replace option

there isn't a stated time, but this is an 'inferred' period if you speak to trading standards peeps

Oh and btw as it is less than 1 yr old it is up to the seller to send to the manufacturer, as said above your contract is with the shop, theirs is with thwe supplier.

Longer than 28 days ownerhip you are not entitled to a refund, the seller has the right to repair or replace (at his discretion)within a reasonable timeframe, again usually deemed to be 28 days.If he cannot repair/replace within a reasonable timefframe you are then entitled to a refund.

Sorry if this isn't what you want to hear, but ti is the law.

Take a look at Adidas clima cools, interchangable arms and nose pieces to wear as sunglasses or goggles, and can even take a prescription clip, been using them for years, and still think they are the best thing around…..

they are obliged to give you a copy on the day of the test, but can and probably will charge you for a replacement, and tbh i dont blame them……..

………flip side now they have seen more of you maybe rethinking if you could do the better job, you never know…….

OK,something to think about "you get what you pay for"

If you acidentally damage your glases try getting specsavers to do a repair rather than replace (forking out for a ne pair)

same as above fort the online retailers

some of the other multiples will repair if they can rather than sell you another pair, however most independant opticians pride themselves on their service, and part of that is in aftercare, why replace frame and lenses at a cost to the customer when only a frame arm is damaged.

I own an opticians , and we have a branch of specsavers five doors up the street from us and tbh its actually a good thing,most people at some point will give them a try but strangely end up back with us soon after.

As for cheap I recently made some glasses for a little girle with a very high prescription, who had been tested at specsavers, she had been quoted £230 on top of her NHS vocher for a good set of glasses, we provided the same lenses in a nice kids frame within the cost of the NHS voucher……..the kid also left the shop in tears of joy as she had never had glasses she liked wearing b4nbut by chosing the right shape and size of frame the glasses acually looked very neat.

As for those that buy their specs of the internet I applaude your savings but just remember one day it may come back top bite you, you see the average cost of a sight test on the high street is about £20, the actual cost to the opticians in wages and equipment is nearer £70, and rely on selling glasses to make up the difference, so if everyone goes to the internet for their glasses dont be surprised if your sightestcost rises consideraby.

OK my rant and two peneth done, flame me all you want

good luck with getting varifocals off the internet lens positioning should be interesting

OK just for you, the surgery will correct long or shortsightedness, but as you are now needing a correction for reading you would not be totally specs free as the surgery can't correct the the lack off focus range which unfortunately comes to us all with age.

And I thought this thread was going to be about the old kids cartoon, quality TV………..

He'll prob use that celeb lawyer and get off with it because the sign post was incorrectly sited or some other stoopid excuse

Spaniels are are very mis understood dog, they are not dumb, they are actually highly intelligent, their problem is that they have alot of energy which means they need to be kept interested.So if you want a dog that will sit round all day for cuddles…..wrong dog.
If you want a dog you can take on long walks/bikerides and play with alot using lots of energy…..perfect

Quite often it isnt the dogs, its the owners who dont understand them

so lets get this straight you are saying he makes a duff rag 80% of which was your idea, so you are moaning about him pretending to be you moaning about your own duff idea
