    Re: comet

    I myself tried to log onto Comet, the DSG group of companies ie. Currys, PC World & Dixons over the holiday, all off line except comet as already described. PC world Business could be accessed but Dixons and PC World both had headers up that they were busy.

    First time at the sale and festive season I have seen this! and my take on this is that this is the latest marketing ploy, with the courier and post services all struggling with backlogs after the adverse weather, in all probability the sheds behind themselves with their own transport they decided to create some inertia by preventing people accessing the sites thus punters make their way to the actual stores. Note that all these sites are back online now ?

    In this economic climate with VAT increase on the way surely any business would want to attract as many customers as possible by whatever means at their disposal ? Having a site down for updates or whatever would not be the order of the day and with Comet they even had gone to the trouble and expense to have a so called cue system designed ?

    Very Odd
