    I'm going there tomorrow after work - I would go today - but I don't have the laptop with me..
  • Argos have a Supplier Direct team who speak to Lenovo via email (24-48 hour response time).

    If you phone through to Argos frontline, tell them they need to involve the Supplier Direct team and they'll confirm with Lenovo the lead time you have stated. It should be enough for them to agree for the item to be returned to a store for refund.

    If the frontline person doesn't do this, escalate the call to a manager - This will be dealt with

    Ive had a few updates -Might be good news:

    From Lenovo - Via Twiter Messaging:
    "Hi Darren, I'll request for our support team to review your repair case. Please, can I take your email address and telephone number? Thanks, Joe"

    Gave info

    "Hi Darren, thanks, we will make contact again to help within 24 hours. Joe"

    From Argos - Via Twiter Messaging:

    "Hi Darren, I am sorry your laptop is not working. As this was collected from a store you would need to return it to a store and advise them what you have told us and see what they can do for you. Jules"

    Might be making traction - :T

    Why don't you do as requested and simply take it back to the store your purchased it from.

    Off-topic - why do people write like that? (Capitalise the first letter of each word). Surely it's more effort than using proper sentence structure?
