Issue with Middletons
BPickle
Posts: 3 Newbie
My father was mis sold a scooter by Middletons. They say that because he is outside of the cooling off period they can’t do anything and we need to go through the furniture ombudsman. Just wondering whether anyone has any experience with this? Thanks

Well they can do anything they want, including actually dealing with the issue but if they're stonewalling him then he'll either have to go to the Furniture Ombudsman or take it to small claims.
Of course, the latter in particular depends on whether he was truly missold the, presumably, sofa.0 -

Scooter I suspect. Can't find sofas on their website.
Without more info it is difficult to help the OP.

The furniture ombudsman won't do much good with a scooter, unless they're just talking about the seat.theonlywayisup said:Scooter I suspect. Can't find sofas on their website.

But the OP did - that's who Middletons believe should resolve the dispute.theonlywayisup said:

That may be so, but it is y3sitsm3 that has offered the item to be a sofa. The op describes it as a scooter.68ComebackSpecial said:

OP in what regard did they miss sell .

Yes, because the OP mentioned a scooter but talked about the furniture ombudsman. It seemed far more likely that "scooter" was a miscorrected typo than "furniture ombudsman" was.theonlywayisup said:
