Unless they can PROVE the fault was not there at the time of purchase a refund or repair as the customer wishes should be given. You cannot expect customers to be happy with shoddy customer services, if the issue was resolved to the customers satisfaction straight away then there would be no annoyed customers.
I think a change in the attitude of the staff is more in order than a change in the customers who through no fault of their own has a legitimate complaint.
I think that you will find that the retailer has got the option.
Where the goods are faulty, take them back within 6 months and the shop has to prove they WERE NOT faulty when you bought them, therefore you can send the item away to check that the item was not faulty. It does not mean that the customer can DEMAND a refund.
I also say that go in with the right attitude and you get a lot more than going in with the attitude that a lot of ppl have.
As regards a change in the attitude of staff what most need are re-training or e refresher course. What they dont need is to be spoken to like something stepped in, they are after all doing a job that doesnt represent massive pay0 -
