watford electronics/saverstore

hi new to mse.com hope this helps some site visiters
i recently was e mailed some great offers from this company and swiftley ordered a new dell computer from them this order was them confirmed by them only to be contacted the next day to tell me it was out of stock.
A similer spec machine was offered which i ordered on my credit card,i consequently found out afterwards that the company went into administration earlier this year,if this is the case how come they are still trading and taking customer orders?:confused:
I have cancelled the order with them as i was lucky enough to cancel before dispatch but i am still waiting for my account to be credited just a warning to all you bargin hunters !

    Yes. They did go into administration but all the assets and leftover business was bought by a new company, founded specifically for this venture, essentially a phoenix operation. I think they felt they could serve debtors better by letting a new company take on the responsibility rather than deal through adminstration restrictions.

    Edit: the company is called Globally Ltd, which is physically headquartered in the same building as watford/saverstore, which I think says it all.
