    From this:

    i am very distraught and shook up
    could of been catastrophic
    i'm being advised to sue
    i am really angry that it could of been my kids in there...
    physically sick at the thought

    To this:

    ...this is a massive non-event and i have not blown anything out of proportion...

    Make your mind up!

    Good that you got it sorted without any fuss, though.

    for your information seen as though you seem to be fixated with me:

    i WAS very distraught and shook up - so whats it to you eyh
    it COULD of been catastrophic - were you there? NO BUT my children were .
    i was being ADVISED to sue - whats that got to do with what i've said
    I WAS REALLY ANGRY MY KIDS COULD OF BEEN IN THERE --- so you would'nt be bothered if a big glass door fell on your children?

    don't know why its such a big deal what i've said get a life

    MY MIND IS MADE UP THAT I'V SPENT FAR TO MUCH OF MY TIME ANSWERING SARCASTIC REPLIES....... GET A LIFE PLEASE GO AND STALK SOMEONE ELSE.

    LEAVE ME ALONE FOR THE LAST TIME KEEP YOUR OPINIONS TO YOUR SELF AS THEY ARE NOW USELESS
  • and it was nice to speak to you too!! By the way, politeness and manners cost nothing...but despite your childish little rant, you entertained us with your poor english and grammar anyway!!!

  • For those of you who have difficulty reading Ellabells was simply asking "should she seek compensation". Obviously friends and family may have told her to claim compensation but she did come on MSE for other thoughts and opintions. Perhaps someone on here had been through similar and could advise accordingly. Instead a lot of you have read the post and chose bits out of it to start an argument of some sort. If you don't have constructive advice or anything USEFUL to add then why bother? It's surely a waste of your time. A question was asked and an answer was wanted and that's it!

    Thank heavens the shower door did not fall ontop of the children as they were in the bath just before Ellabells. What would you be saying to Ella if something terrible had happened to her children? Glass is a killer and luckily for her none of her veins were sliced open! It seems evident that some of you haven't got children or experienced a terrible accident such as this.

    Ella, document everything that happened, the time date, what was destroyed, everytime you phone the company and if you feel you are getting pushed around record what they say, write them a letter and enclose a list of expenses. Of course the new shower door should be replaced and fitted for free. Give them some time to respond but if you don't get anything back or they are not fothcoming with replacemnts etc do seek advice from the CAB or other regulatory body.
  • Thank you very much for your kind words of support this is excatly what i was looking for .... sound advice and support, i am so relieved that there are some nice people out there, i will waist no more of my time on those people whom chose to critisise me they are very sad.

    thank you so much again very much appreciated!!!!
  • oooh look ...a supportive well structured post from a brand new poster...

    Further to your post, supportive and structured advice was given to OP but she chose to be stroppy and down right childish when it was given and it wasn't what she wanted to hear. .

    Ellabells...we are leaving you alone, nobody is stalking you. Advice has been given to you and your friend has tried and failed to make us feel bad....I suggest that this thread is now at an end.

    But the glass door didn't cause any serious injuries so what is there to document?

    What expenses are you going to send to the company?

    What do you think the CAB or "other regulatory body" (CAB's are not regulatory!) will say?
  • Well I am insulted..not...i have explained that we have all tried to advise and been slagged off for doing so. I am not a troll....you on the other hand registered today and have been nothing but abusive to regular posters.
