Section 75 is a washout. What on earth can I do now??
NB. It is
extremely important to note that Desktop PCs have increased considerably in
price since I purchased my PC 3 weeks and 5 days ago. Although my PC cost £1472.49,

IKEA delivery - won’t help carry sofa?

I’m hoping for some advice on a consumer dispute I’ve been unable to resolve. I paid for a dog training programme in July based on claims that my dog would be able to be off leash at the end.
