Praise for Smeg

New electric oven purchased July 2014.

Dear Wife wanted to give it a proper clean which involved removing door, the handbook was quite vague about the method to do this.

Removed door ok but could not get it back on! after a few attempts telephoned Smeg to be told a engineer would come out but it might not be covered by warranty, " user error" was quoted.

Now the praise, engineer called to arrange time ,the following day, arrived on time, fixed door no charge.

That's what I call customer service.😀

    So this is your kind of English?
  • And presumably, for such good service, and having saved you money, you gave the man a tip? Surely ?

    Just ignore it. Its a new account obviously created with the sole purpose of stalking me.
    Obviously I wound them up because they couldn't spell or something. Pathetic, really.

    Ignore? And miss the chance to quote more RD?
    Now kindly cluck off before I extract your giblets and shove a large, seasoned onion between the lips you never kiss with :D

    Red Dawrf has a lot to answer for.

    They have been called that since 1948. It stands for Smalterie Metallurgiche Emiliane Guastalla ("Emilian metallurgical enamel works of Guastalla").
