Really no need to post this 3 times.
Same answer as I gave in the other 2 :
I assume this is a badly written troll attempt.
Could HAVE, not could of.
And it didn't either give you a fatal injury or hinder your life.
If I worked a Primark and got a letter saying what you had, it would be deposited in the circular file asap.
However apart from that, if you are serious, you do actually have a point. They should not be having machine needles left in items you buy from thm. I would forget about demands for compensaion as NOTHING HAPPENED TO YOU and I wouldn't contact them, I would get onto your local trading standards.0 -
Fatal really? :eek:
Granted it could have done you some damage, maybe even blinded you in one eye if you'd managed to lay down straight onto it.
Best you can expect from Primark is I expect a refund and apology (but it being Primark I wouldn't hold out for the apology)Kate short for Bob.

Wanted to know how i go about complaining to primark, if i should write letter to newspaper.
Unbelievably annoyed with company as this could of caused me a fatal injury that could of hindered my life.
Will be happy with any advice.
Cheers.
Fatal injury that could HAVE hindered your life? I would have thought that any fatal injury would hinder most people's lives.
What do you hope to gain by going to the newspapers?*
*What a stupid question. :doh:The greater danger, for most of us, lies not in setting our aim too high and falling short; but in setting our aim too low and achieving our mark0 -
If I had a fatal injury, I expect it would hinder my life as well

i have had a similar issue i found a primark sewing needle inside a pillow. even though luckily no damage was caused it could of potentially given me a fatal injury. i haven't written a letter to primark yet as i am not completely sure what to put in it.
is there any suggestions to how i should word the letter?
i believe that i deserve some compensation from this diabolical company, seeing that this needle could of potentially hindered my life.

You know you're pushing your luck if even Flyboy doesn't support you
The best thing you could do is take the pillow and needle to Primark and complain. They should give you a refund and may give you some compensation. But don't try and make a case around what could have (but didn't) happen.Competition wins: Where's Wally Goody Bag, Club badge branded football, Nivea for Men Goody Bag0 -
