I imagine they'll tell me to ring that premium rate number to sort out a repair.

Or they could do the decent thing and either send me a cheque for the full amount, or at least get someone to contact me to arrange the repair. But I doubt it.

Well... another letter received and guess what they say...

Ring the premium rate number to arrange repair!! They obviously don't read the letters before replying to them.

They then go on to state that if I don't want to ring the premium rate number then I should take the laptop back to the store who will sort it all out for me. Hang on a minute, isn't that what I did in the first place, hence me writing to them?!

I've given them my phone number to ring me if they want me to arrange a repair with somebody as I am not ringing their premium rate number - if they can't be bothered to ring me then why should I be bothered to drive another 19 miles just to argue with their "Duty Manager" again? Been there, done that... which they would know had they bothered to read my letters.

They don't want to play ball so looks like I'll have to take this one all the way.

Here's a wee tip.

I know it's a hassle and that you shouldn't have to do this in the first place, but that aside...

If you do call the premium rate number, you can take your phonebill back into the store and ask them for a refund of the call cost. Their system even has a "goodwill payment" code, and amongst other things it can be used for this. The training manual even says this, in case the duty manager disputes your request!

In terms of leaving faulty stuff in the store, it's a bit hit-or-miss.

I saw it done twice.

One guy followed it up with a letter to head office, copied to our store manager. He got a refund plus some vouchers.

The other guy's product got nicked from our store 30 seconds later and he got nowt!
