    Just had a phone call from a company called Total soloutions (i think) think it was the original warranty company on the paperwork for the FREE pc.

    From A TARIQ........ asking me about the PC I PURCHASED from Watford electronics......

    I said you mean the FREE pc i got from redten with the broadband contract?

    Oh did they give free pc's away was his reply.....


    The only Tariq that has my mobile was from REDTEN ...but he denied it was him!!!!

    Anyway the PC you bought........errr no FREE pc i kept correcting him...

    Are you aware watford electronics is no longer and your maintenance contract has ended with them ....I explained the PC was FREE and the so called contract was with redten ..

    He said he was in a position to offer spare parts for the PC as they had a surplus....Ahhm I wonder why????

    The upshot was he wanted to sell me a maintenance contract....... Can you believe these @ssholes


    you just could not make it up:rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl:


    You should have asked them for a quote!
    If the maintenance contract has in fact ended (and I bet it has) that is yet another breach of our original contracts and you could send the quote to Clode, asking them if they would like to take it up to restore our service.

    Of course - if it's a free PC, they may feel that there is no obligation to provide a warranty.

    Hope they ring, I need something to make me laugh!

  • Yeah he caught me on the hop...... The only person to have my Mobile number was Tariq from Redten!

    He totaly denied he was from redten and told me watford had gone into liquidation......OLD news

    Kept on ramming it home to him about redten/shafted with broadband etc etc
    skin as thick as a Rhino and a brain to go with it!!!

    Yes in hindsight I should have got a quote but Im afraid the red mist came down......... after all the crap we have put up with they have the neck to ring up to sell me a maintenance contract that THEY have defaulted on...... well i ask you..... this lot want to stick to selling double glazing :mad:
  • Trading standards called me today to say consumer direct has passed the info on to them. I was unable to answer the phone I will call them tomorrow.

    I'll let everyone know what happens.....

    total care rang me " about the Pc I bought from Watford " , I told him i never had which seemedto pee him off a bit "your details are on my list" , then it dawned on me , i bought some laptop memory from lowestontheweb.com that was part of the same group !!

    so all they must have is a list of names , tel numbers etc

    Is it me or is it getting a bit quiet on this forum? Where's everybody gone - we should be keeping each others morale up!

    Do feel free to post to say that you are still around, even if you haven't anything new to add.
