The way things normally work is they have to be aware of it first. This involves someone telling them.

With all these posts and links/emails to media organisations and still no-one has done it? Talk is cheap. By the time you get these cameras they'll only be worth £98

Erm well I just posted them up, who says no one has done it. Whats your interest?

i genuinely contacted watchdog.... i genuinely believe that consumers in this country at times get a rough deal .

is that geniune enough for you.

the fact that this site exists surely shows that those of us like you who look in on it are looking for a baragin in some form or other....

the site is called money saving ....after all ..if your not looking for a baragin or how to make your money go further then why waste time with this site...???



cheers

How can you claim to be getting a rough deal over this? Someone made a mistake on the site, simple as that. It's not a case of an organisation trying to put one over on you.

The vast majority of people took a chance on benefitting from that mistake, with the view that it was unlikely to come off. The company have done what most expected by cancelling the orders, yet some people still want them to honour an obviously flawed deal. You'll get your money back, just shrug it off.

I would be surprised if watchdog or the media get excited by this, because all it is is a mistake.

If you really think you have a case then see a solicitor, and take them to court because they wont buckle under the pressure of griping on internet forums.

they are just not available, there is no mistake.

The mistake was putting them on the website at £98.

Apple didn't say that. They are just unavailable.

Lots said the same thing with the pokemon/virgin escapade & they eventually caved in, so who knows, apple may do the same............
