a) been delivered 2 outer containers for the same job
b) been delivered a soap drawer for a job that i ordered a soap dispenser?And im not going to mention a certain lady manager who is at LG either….. 👿
Have we drifted off the point from L.G.E. ??
2 Outer containers, that’s nothing. We tried to order an outer tub, front tub, seal, element & drum for a job. Their web site kept crashing out during the verfication of of order process. We made 6 attempts on ordering the same items with the same order number within 15 minutes. Eventually gave up & after checking on their site there was no current orders for that day, ordered by fax from ISDA.
Yes you guessed it, we have had 6 identical order deliveries from L.G. The last time that happened was last August & they refused to accept credit as we had “placed the orders”.
Regards Hazel Elliot, at this stage, No Comment, but I will say I am really pleased to be shot of them.

Connect has got the contract, Wonder if they’ll put up with as much crap and rejects as ISDAL has for the past years.

I am supposed to be an agent in my own right, yet they have not had the courtesy to tell me direct, I hear from the ISDA channel. No surprises there.
All I can say is: CDSL welcome to the world of frustration that we have endured for the last few years.
Duplicated orders they refuse to authorise returns depite it being their software problem.
Waiting YEARS, yes I said YEARS for some invoices to be settled.
Modified part numbers technical give out to us, but the parts division refuse to recognise the number & won’t allow us to order.
Staff members at Slough who will not liaise with colleagues/other staff members.
The delays in getting authority numbers for BER repairs.
The website which has potential, but tends to crash or time out.
I’m sure Richard won’t mourn their passing, but will no doubt keep his head down as he must be owed a £ or two.

Re: UK Whitegoods Meeting No.3
Typical I’m away again. Only just got back from Imola Grand Prix.
I’ve been told that I must suffer R.S.I. from putting my case on the weighing belt at the airport. This is a total fallacy as sometimes I travel by ferry.
I digress, It looks like I might have miss out on this one, shame all round.

Re: I.S.D.AL. & L.G.
May go some way to explain why they have been charm personified and finally settled their account with me.
The cynical way I look at this is, they have decided to clear their history and make way for a new beginning. However I’m pretty sure there are others out there who may be still owed.
I’ve a gut feeling I know who has got the contract.
Re: Before It Starts
NICKNAMES
If Laura, Suzanne, Debra and Rose go out for lunch, they will call each other Laura, Suzanne, Debra and Rose.If Mike, Charlie, Bob and John go out, they will affectionately refer to each
other as Fat Boy, Godzilla, Peanut-Head and Scrappy.EATING OUT
When the bill arrives, Mike, Charlie, Bob and John will each throw in £20, even though it’s only for £32.50. None of them will have anything smaller, and none will actually admit they want change back.When the girls get their bill, out come the pocket calculators.
ARGUMENTS
A woman has the last word in any argument.Anything a man says after that is the beginning of a new argument.
CATS
Women love cats.Men say they love cats, but when women aren’t looking, men kick cats.
FUTURE
A woman worries about the future until she gets a husband.A man never worries about the future until he gets a wife.
BATHROOMS
A man has six items in his bathroom: a toothbrush, shaving cream, razor, a bar of soap, and a towel from the Holiday Inn.The average number of items in the typical woman’s bathroom is 337. A man would not be able to identify most of these items.
SUCCESS
A successful man is one who makes more money than his wife can spend.A successful woman is one who can find such a man.
MONEY
A man will pay £2 for a £1 item he wants.A woman will pay £1 for a £2 item that she doesn’t want.
MARRIAGE
A woman marries a man expecting he will change, but he doesn’t.A man marries a woman expecting that she won’t change and she does.
NATURAL
Men wake up as good-looking as they went to bed.Women somehow deteriorate during the night.
DRESSING UP
A woman will dress up to go shopping, water the plants, empty the garbage, answer the phone, read a book, and get the mail.A man will dress up for weddings and funerals.
OFFSPRING
Ah, children. A woman knows all about her children. She knows about dentist appointments and romances, best friends, favourite foods, secret fears and hopes and dreams.A man is vaguely aware of some short people living in the house.
THOUGHT FOR THE DAY
Any married man should forget his mistakes.
There’s no point in two people remembering the same thing.Re: Motivation
I hate to say this, but this smacks more of depression to me.
The weather is good, and the opportunities are out there to be taken. You can’t go on forever sitting around and playing boys games. One day your wife will get wise to the fact she is out earning and you are sitting about at home. You need to be a player in the household and put something in.
Sorry to sound blunt, but that is the way I see it. You need to restore some pride in yourself, and the best way to go about it is to get out there, integrate with society and make yourself feel worthwhile. It is a tragic waste of your skills if you let it slip through your fingers.

Re: Homark hob ignition fault
Chances are someone was a bit enthusiastic when cleaning, or some water has boiled over onto the spark generator.
Sometimes, just leaving the hob switched off at the wall and leaving it 24 hours to dry sorts it.
Time will tell.

Re: The UKW Subscriber Forum
You’ll need a reference number. 😉
K.
Well I was caught out on that one, for the life of me I could not find the field or box on the pdf file to put in that number. Left it blank.
Never mind, when the money hits the appropriate account, I will be in there.
Hope you are all enjoying payroll year end, ought to be a law against it.
Happy Easter.

No, this is not some sort of exclusive club and we’re not all retreating to a foxhole to scheme stuff either, this is as open as I can possibly make it and as low cost as I can as well to you or your business, that was the aim.
Hopefully in time it will gain the members rather than cost them with some of the deals we secure but I did say I was not going to make any rash promises there. I am offering no guarantees with it bar one, everyone involved with UKW will do their level best for the members as they have done thus far and I don’t think it’s my place to ask anymore than that.
K.
Very eloquently put.
I knew no reassurance was needed on my part, but I was concerned that some would read into it a secret agenda was to be made available within a restricted area.
I would assume the light hearted items would be left as they are in the public domain; and the subscriber forum be able to get on with the more important topics & issuses that afect us all one way or another. I see this as a progression to a more recognisable and accepted part of this medium.
I’m off to put my details into the system as a member.

Re: The UKW Subscriber Forum
Few silly questions if I may? I’ve been out of the loop a bit the last week or two, and am still catching up. I’m in full agreement with this and ready to put my hand in pocket.
Is this open to anyone who cares to subscribe?
You mention levels of access and suscriptions to match, will it be made clear what is available at each level?
Is there a criteria or vetting procedure?
Does one have to be recommended by a fellow member?
How much and how are we invited to subscribe?
Sounds like membership to a golf club.
I’m really asking this on behalf of other interested parties as well, as I don’t want this to appear to be an exclusive club. I know the figures as discussed recently won’t break the bank.

Re: Electrue/NESN
So that is who Nick Cooper is.
I’ve had this one yesterday & today from the above source. I’m not even an NESN agent nor have been.
No doubt this has migrated from their address book through someone elses.

Regards,
Penguin.Take it you mean David Bedford who was promised success at the 1972 Olympics, but he didn’t do too well.
He has successfully won the case against 118-118. Ironically he has now offered his services to the rivals, BT 118-500 and has promised to donate any money to charity.
David Moorcroft also an athlete (1500m) and his championship career was from 1976 to 1982 and he didn’t have the dead ferret under his nose.
Re: When Adam was a lad!
I remember something that utilised a mercury switch, I was invloved in one when I was an apprentice.
What about the Thor washing machine. Open looking thing, top loader with a mangle and the motor along with the belt exposed and mounted on a frame under the tub. They were always painted green.
That is as far back as I want to remember.

Maybe you’re right Alex, maybe I have been an ostrich in that regard. 😕K.
No you silly bugger, not you being the Ostrich, bloody DASA. They keep on ploughing their furrow, heads down totally unaware of the changing real world that is out there. All due I have to say by one person, that is bourne out by the postings subsequent to my protest. Action is long overdue it seems.
I know I have a clear conscience regards bringing this to the fore, it was so obvious that something is really wrong with the regime as it stands. After shelling out nearly £500 I started to wonder if I was alone, must admit though, I knew I wasn’t.
As I say, reminds me of 1970’s union meetings. The likes of Jack Jones, Frank Chappel, Sid Weighell and other old union leaders are long gone, lost in the mists of time due to the reaility of life and it is no longer beer & sandwiches in number 10.
Best of luck to all on Thursday, wish I was able to be there.
