Child's bike - Warranty issues?
I'll try to keep this brief. Bike was purchased in November from E-Bikes Outlet as an Xmas present, the bike was brand new and boxed. Over the weekend, the pedal on one side has fallen off, the thread on the plastic pedal has basically gone, and it's gone on the pedal arm too - so it won't screw back on. Contacted E-Bikes…

Hi I walked into a B&M store today and was stopped by a security guard just as I stepped into the store. He said face recognition had set off an alarm. So I asked if I could try it again and it did set off his alarm. So we went outside and he explained it was either for shoplifting (absolutely not!) or being argumentative…

Swarovski
I bought my daughter a ring from Swarovski store for her 18th birthday. A year later (out of guarantee) a stone fell out.
