    I have never heard anything good about their customer service, I'll vote with my feet and stay away! Hope you get a response from toceo soon!!
  • I got extremely bad treatment from ToysR Us years ago and voted with my feet and have never shopped there since. Totalling up over the years, they have lost hundreds of pounds that I've spent elsewhere. I phoned, wrote etc and got nowhere. Customer Services was non-existent and when I actually spoke to a store manager she was the rudest most unprofessional person I think I have ever spoken to who had no concept of any consumer law. I wouldn't wish badly on any store because if a store goes bust, lots of people lose their jobs but in the case of Toys R Us I make an exception because I hate that store with a passion :mad:
  • Toys R Us are overpriced anyway. Who would spend their money in a greed driven company when they can spend it in decent shopkeeper's stores?

    I used to buy toys at Woolworths. ToysRus have always been overpriced and we also bought a trike with parent handle two years ago. One of the wheels was faulty and they tried to get out of changing it. It had not been used and it was obvious as the wheels were unmarked and had no dirt on them. After hasseling and threatening to stand at the door and tell customers walking in about our problem they changed it over. Go to the store, and speak to the manager if you have not already done so. Don't forget you receipt, be firm and say you are not leaving without a replacement it's as simple as that.

    Maybe you should use the £10 to buy some punctuation....

    Do you realize how hard your posts are to read properly?
    If it looks like a duck, and quacks like a duck, we have at least to consider the possibility that we have a small aquatic bird of the family anatidae on our hands

    It's really hard to understand your posts. From what I gather, Toys R Us are refusing to give you a refund and you've been talking to someone named Toceo about the problem?

    If you're not getting any satisfaction in store, go over their heads and write to the UK head office, laying out what has happened and that you're aware of your rights (well covered elsewhere here). Don't waste your time arguing with people in the store.
    If you don't stand for something, you'll fall for anything

    hello just to warn people with children not to buy from toys r us. I was sold a trike which broke and they try to get out by saying it was misused I have wrote and phoned them to get nowhere now writing to the CEO in the USA. I am gutted by their treatment and think that the sooner they go broke the better. I am now going to warn every body I see and I have the number of the so called head of customer services if needed. :mad:

I still have not had trike returned going to put sign in back of land rover and tell everyone how rubbish they are. Thanks for your reply just so angry never had anything like this happen before.
    update toys r us said they won't ban me from there stores, that's nice of them, and give 10 pounds of any further purchase. What do they think I am? As if i would give them any of my hard cash. I won't stop warning people and I want a full refund because they are liars.

    Fixed it the best I could and hope it makes sense now.
