But your case is as simple as simple could be. You take it back, they say it's not faulty so you prove otherwise and get a resolution of your choice. As it's less than 30 days then you get to chose the remedy.


I don't know what law school you went to but saying you shouldn't need to do this is just, well I can't explain why a solicitor wouldn't know that.


You actually asked for legal advice? Do you not work with other solicitors? I think you tripped yourself up on this troll attempt.

If argos not playing ball then take it to Apple and it will get sorted under manufacturers warranty.

It is suspicious that you dont want to have the manufacturer look at it

well considering there is a lot more to it than just those 2 acts maybe I already did, but tell me, when you need to know judicatory president and EU / International law it would take a while and I already do all that for my day job and trust me its not that simple as two acts, the courts are for clarity of the law, the statues themselves are limited to the courts interpretation of said acts and how its applied. But yeah im now not a solicitor hmmm should get my head checked then; knew I should have a doctor.

I've worked with lots of solicitors over the years, and all of them knew how to spell 'judiciary' and 'precedent' - and they even knew what the words actually mean.

Not to mention statute. I though the school holidays were over this week.

Somewhat off topic but this thread (and another one a couple of weeks ago on the Employment board by, I think, "Houndedout") reminds me of something I read years ago in a book (Psychiatry in Dissent) by Anthony Clare, the psychiatrist who was also a TV personality.


If I remember correctly, he described an experiment carried out by researchers in the US. They believed that mental illness did not exist and that it was purely a social construct. (By the way, I'm not debating the pros and cons of this view!).


In order to test this hypothesis they arranged to have volunteers present themselves at hospitals across the States, demonstrating various symptoms of mental illness. Needless to say these volunteers were all lying and the symptoms were made up (in the sense that they were not really suffering from them).


Some volunteers were rumbled and politely told to stop wasting the hospital's time. But a surprisingly high number of volunteers were believed and diagnosed as suffering from a mental illness, and were admitted for treatment.


The researchers took these hospital admissions as evidence that mental illness didn't really exist.


(Personally I'd be more worried about a hospital listening to someone demonstrating clearly schizophrenic symptoms and then sending them away as mental illness does not exist! I think Dr Clare was similarly critical.)


Something about these two threads reminds me of that experiment...


(PS - apologies if I've misremembered Dr Clare's account!)

In years to come this post should become part of MSE folklore.

I'd like to type more, but Mr Precedent just called and told me my application to become an astronaut has succeeded so I need to fly away.
