    Thanks OP

    Best to phone Argos, give them the order number and specifically say "I'd like to cancel my contract under the Consumer Contracts Regulations, are you able to collect the laptop please".

    Hopefully they will simply arrange it to be collected. Don't mention going to store or anything else it just complicates things :) 

    They might charge a small fee for collection which is fine, if they refuse to help or they later refund but not the full amount please do come back for more help.

    Your rights, if purchased online, are the same with Argos as these from the Currys website (my bold highlighting)


    Changed your mind?

    If you purchased online, you can return your item within 30 days even if you have opened it for inspection. To obtain a full refund, it must be returned as new and in a resaleable condition. This means you must not use it, you should keep it in the original packaging and return it complete with all accessories.

    Most online returns are accepted in stores as long as the item meets these conditions. Use our handy returns journey guide to help you find the quickest way to return your item.

    If you purchased in store, you can return your item within 30 days in its unopened and sealed packaging along with proof of purchase (excludes connected products with airtime, such as a mobile phone, sim contract or broadband connection*).

    *Returns policies for connected products differ by network. You can change or cancel your contract with ID within 14 days of purchase. You are not able to change or cancel your contract with Vodafone.
