    I can't buy something that you will more than likely never have :D

    :confused: What, you mean I'm not going to get my new Bissell? :cry::cry:

    Oh Tallyho calm yourself down a bit. We know it's unlikely to come off (we really don't need your help to see that) but there's no harm trying ... if it's getting under your skin go help others elsewhere and we'll buzz you when we reach the final outcome.

    well said !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
    Use your judgement, and above all, be honest with yourself. :)
    I walk with the world & the world walks with me!
    I don't make bad choices!!! Other people just fail to see my GENIUS !!!! :D

    Well banter's fine provided everyone sees it as such ;)
    I don't mean you no harm Tallyho. Life's too short.
    On a serious point though. I didn't order 50 vacuums or whatever. I ordered one. And my old Hoover is just over 30 years old, it's a Hoover Constellation ... its shaped like a huge golfball and glides on a cushion of air (allegedly) ... my Gran gave it to me when I was a studento and that was 22 years ago and she'd had it for ages. And despite being abused this length of time she still soldiers on. The Hoover, that is !
    But as with everything spares are proving hard to find. I could be doing with a new vacuum and I'd be over the moon if Bissell coughed up on this one. Then it'd save me having to juggle about financially and deciding which bills go in the pot for their random chance of getting paid :)

    Blimey zappster, I suggest you write to Hoover - they might give you a free one for the publicity. I didn't realise they lasted so long .... have you ever used it? It's supposed to collect dust inside the bag, not on the machine itself you know! :p
  • I wouldn't mind buying your old hoover if you do score a new one; it sounds way cool.
  • i did fill in the form for one of these hoovers an if it comes it comes of not so be it

    there seems to be a few people calling others for wasting their time
    why are you posting to tell us that surely in you posting means yopur also wasteing your own time looking up TC upon other stuff

    its a bit like the person who calls the presenter on the tele saying i dont like him blah blah but they often end up watching any way
    or the person that calls in on the radio to say i dont like your show

    well why listen or watch????

    it doesnt make sence to slagg others for supposedly wasting their time on this matter when you yourself are doing the same by posting

    plus what harm is it doing to you apart from your winding yourself up

    i find it comicle

    No offence taken , banter is what it is meant to be . :beer:

    If I can offer some advice on a serious note then . By all means try to get it , the company is not going to even acknoweledge any form of threat by anyone , especially an en masse mail from one individual . I ordered one myself , I received an ID order number , I have screenshots . I honestly can't see it getting anywhere except in them taking full payment if it is provided .

    If possible , state your individual case in a polite manner , let them decide , you never know .


    PS Zappster

    If your desperate for a hoover I'll send you one . Bagless HEPA , 2 months old , 2 yrs warranty , like new . We received one of the £30 Bissels so this one is spare . Drop me a PM if interested .

    well in the pay now box it was £0 so tha is what I am sticking to. If they dont offer the hoovers, then compensation to avoid bad press will be sought.

    Compensation for what?
    The money, Dave...
