Rights when buying a Lenovo online?
OH wants to buy an IBM Thinkpad maybe from Toye Computers. However their website has no T&Cs and they say (verbally) that it's not their policy to take back unsatisfactory products ordered online within the first 7 days, even if unused except for being turned on once to check if it's acceptable. Even a faulty product would…

Consumer Advice Needed
Hi, I wonder if someone can help me. Last week I bought a gas barbecue from an online reseller. When the barbecue arrived, I immediately noticed it was damaged. However, as it was fairly minor damage and I had planned my whole weekend around the barbecue with friends/family visiting etc, I decided to accept it. When we…

White marks on clothes.
Is it my fault for using the wrong powder? I bought Ariel Champ White with the tennis thing on it, mainly because it was on offer, I am wondering is it only for 'whites' (doesn't say) as it's leaving white marks on my coloureds! I have had to do a few washes over again:mad: I haven't had this with other powders. Anyone…

National Express 'Funfares'
Saw a great deal with National Express into London for £1. But when I tried to get 3 more seats for hubby & kids, cost came to £100+!!! Yet when I went back in, I was able to buy 4 seats as an Adult for £1 each again. So if the seats exist - why are they charging £1 each for them (£4), but if I buy them as 2 adults/2 kids…

Royal Bank of Scotland

Indesit's stupid staff
:mad:In my second last house, I purchased an Indesit K342 Gas cooker, three years ago. But it wasn't until I moved later that year I discovered a problem. It must have been because the kitchen was much smaller and we were more likely to brush against the cooker. When the oven was on the cooker heated up very extensively,…

Company hasn't refunded me and is ignoring all communication.
I placed a telephone order with digico.co.uk and they gave me a specific date for delivery. The item did not arrive so I rang to cancel it. They said that my refund would be back in my account within 2-3 working days. This was 6 weeks ago and they will not acknowledge my contacts by recorded letter and email. Without…
