oh poor you sounds like you are having a nightmare at the moment
hopefuly that will be it for you now and you will win the lottery on sat :0)
just a quick one on the laptop power supply
my laptop battery went just before my laptop was 12 months old
i contacted the place i brought it from who said actualy we only guarantee battery for 6 months, i looked on there website and no where did it state this so i sent them a email saying if i did not receive a replacement battery i would be seeking a full refund for the laptop as the whole point is it was supposed to be a mobile computer a few days latter i received a phone call saying i could go into the shop and pick up my new battery, so hope you dont get fobbed off
all the best0 -
Bus broke down on our car park yesterday, no help for an hour then 3 tow trucks turned up at once.I'd rather be an Optimist and be proved wrong than a Pessimist and be proved right.0

Nice story, good on you for persevering.
But I think the op means the power pack? If so, they are still dear and I would push for an original replacement, the cheaper ones aren't as good imo.0 -

If my nana broke a couple of things in quick succession, she would always deliberately break something else (she'd snap a pencil), in case the third thing she broke turned out to be her leg.0
