Finally......I am pleased to announce that after writing a letter to the Director of Comet - Mr Hugh Harvey - with the threat of court action if my case wasn't addressed promptly & in the proper manner - I am now the proud owner of a replacement Brand New 'like for like' Apple iMac! Interestingly, 'Backstage' the company that Comet uses as their Apple approved repairers, as a direct result of my complaints are being fully investigated by Comet for incompetence & unprofessionalism. So for me it has been a win, win situation. I hope now that no one else has to endure what I've had to. So, if I have any advice to give, it would be - go straight to the top with your complaint Mr Hugh Harvey MD Comet Group plc Comet House Three Rivers Court Rickmansworth, Hertfordshire, WD3 1FX, And what ever you do - don't give up fighting for your rights, as generally speaking the truth will out in the end! -

It's a long & sorry tale............ I became the proud owner of a beautiful Apple iMac on 24th November 2010. After just 37 days, it began to shut down totally & with out any warning. 3 times I took it back to Comet, 3 times they made me take it home again (saying they could not replace it, as they could find nothing wrong - 'it must be you' they said, we never have problems with iMacs!') 3 times they failed find any fault with it. Twice they sent it back to Backstage (Apple approved repairers) Comet failed to properly parcel the iMac, so it was damaged in transit. In store customer services said that a regional manager would contact me, they never did.........so in desperation, I sought help form Apple direct. They sourced the problem immediately, telling me it was a known fault with that model. Apple were horrified with the state of the box & packaging, & found further damage to the screen. (caused in transit to & from Backstage) I have put my complaint in writing to Head Office in Hull. I have been in touch with head office over the phone too many times to mention (I found the people in the investigations team to be unsympathetic and condescending) To date, Comet have not admitted to me in writing that there was even a fault with my iMac! Even though I have sent them the report Apple gave me from the repair! Basically, Comet are in breech of the sale of goods act 1979 - 'goods should be both of satisfactory quality & free from & defects' But will they take responsibility? No I can see from this forum I am not alone in my frustrations. If a member of Comet's staff reads this, then for goodness sake, get your employers to hold their hands up & replace my iMac or give me my money back so that I can go & buy a new one from a reputable store - like Apple!
