There is nothing you can do via ebay or ebay as you are out of time. If it cost a lot then you have the option of small claims, but try phoning seller first.I’m a Forum Ambassador and I support the Forum Team on the eBay, Auctions, Car Boot & Jumble Sales, Boost Your Income, Praise, Vents & Warnings, Overseas Holidays & Travel Planning , UK Holidays, Days Out & Entertainments boards.

Ever thought all this wet weather may have something to do with the bell not working?

To be honest I wouldn't expect a 5 quid door bell to last long at all. We've purchased a couple in the past and they just aren't durable enough, a slight bit heavy handed with them soon sees them in more than one piece.0
