I have contacted the company they have no plans to reverse their decision so I am voicing my right for hopefully them to see and listen to on a public forum!
It is not right that something that has been the norm for years has suddenly been taken away from us and they then expect people to just take it or not be allowed to voice there upset
there are disabilities out there that cannot use a phone etc yet can use a web site and it is bad they have taken their only right away
the whole idea of this site is that it is a way for people to stand up for their rights not to be downgraded during the process so please unless people have anything positive to say allow me my right to voice my opinion0 -
it says you can only buy 1 product per auction, something they currently do not enforce and they often say live on air if you would like more than 1 use 2 phones, i also believe the following states basically you can buy all tv items online via there website it is hopefully all in here
You can also find all TV auctions for today in time order
TV pre-bidding gives you the option of entering a bid amount on a TV auction prior to it going on air. You can find these items in our product categories marked with a "TV deal" graphic.
You can always return to increase your bid or "Buy now" once the product is live on air. You can only ever buy one product per auction.
You can also find all TV auctions for today in time order by clicking on the top banner in the middle of the homepage. If you'd like more information on future TV products you can use the TV listings area at the bottom of the left hand navigation. Here you can see the products that will be on air up to 3 days in advance.
Keep an eye on the "Live on TV now" area on the right hand side of the homepage to see what product is currently on air. It is only when the product is displayed here that you can "Buy now".
Remember the price will keep dropping until the quantity runs out and everyone pays the lowest price.

Its simple really , if someone used the PC they make no money
If people ring up its £1.50 a call and this gets charged even if you didn't manage to buy the item, thus making them thousands in phone calls0 -
sorry i was not ranting at you
it was aimed at those who continually say get over it and move on etc they were saying just leave it, rather than allowing me to voice my opinion of a bad company decisionYou were asked for a link.
That's just the first step in trying to help you.
Believe it or not, there are a lot of people, me included, who don't know what you are talking about.
If you were to supply a link, then people could look at the website and hopefully better understand your problem.
You never know, people might be able to help then.
But if you just want to rant... you're on the wrong board. :beer:0 -
that is exactly the way i am looking at it they want to lock the web to get the commision from the phones, although il happily give them £1.53 if they allow people to get the items via the web againIts simple really , if someone used the PC they make no money

Take your business elswhere, there are plenty of retailers who will be glad of your business.
I might add I still don't understand what the problem is.
the problem is i want to shop with them, it is obviously a great deal, but i will stop shopping with them if they stop me buying my £1 items online as it makes me feel they dont want me as a customer0 -

Could you get a headset and use an IP phone service like Skype ?“That old law about 'an eye for an eye' leaves everybody blind. The time is always right to do the right thing.”0 -
A quick google on this issue suggests that there may (and its only a may) be a valid reason for making this change. I've seen complaints from people who have tried to phone, only to find that all the items are gone before their phone even completes dialling - why? Because all the items were being sold via the web because it runs a few seconds ahead of digital tv, enabling those online to get a head start. Now that came from another forum where people were debating it amongst themselves so its not coming from the channels - so it seems that there isn't an easy answer as whichever approach they take someone is going to be unhappy - given the phone revenues its hardly surprising they aren't going to leave those customers at a disadvantage.Adventure before Dementia!0

Dont be silly.. Where would the OPs rant get any joy from then?

Rollernutty are you going to answer the question asked of you RE thisrollernutty wrote: »They cant! a statutory right is companies cannot false advertise, hence they cannot say bid/buy online on all of our days listings and then say you cannot
you are of course aware that a shop of any osrt can refuse to sell anyone anything in said shop... No matter if they are disabled or even an alien.
Mind you if Stephen hawking can use the phone write books and talk then why cant you use the phone? Or even a textphone? Or is it that you dont want to pay the phone call charge..
Yes, I bet you thats it. But if your quick you can play the racist card too as that will be a lot more powerful then the disabled card"If you no longer go for a gap, you are no longer a racing driver" - Ayrton Senna0
