Re: Right said Fred……
Hmmm.
Anyones insurance premium gone up lately?
If so, see Martin for reasons why. 😛
Re: Right said Fred……
So who’s actually stumping up all this monopoly money?
As in who’s refunding the customer?
Re: buying a van
Shame you weren’t in a position to fight on. I’d say you had a strong legal position (regardless of the wimpy solicitor!) and could have done some serious butt kicking!
A lesson for us all though.
Thanks for the advice.
Re: buying a van
Steve,
I think you will find that as you contracted the vehicle from the local dealer and returned it to same dealer at the contactually stipulated time then you were no loner legally liable for the vehicle beyond that date.
I’d’ve told them “see you in court”!Re: Qualtex selling spares online at trade prices!!

No, silly, I said “spare parts provider”. 😉
Re: Qualtex selling spares online at trade prices!!
Sorry, pardon my butting in but I think tadpole’s point might have been missed.
I read it as they seem disappointed that qualtex are apparently supplying a ‘competitor’ who are then selling on at what, at first glance at least, appears to be virtually if not better than trade price. 😕
Maybe the response could have been slightly more sympathetic instead of shooting them down. 🙁

I’ll butt out now as I have a litigious spare parts provider on the other line!! 😯Re: Engineer being alone in a house with a minor?
If the child is under sixteen years of age, they are not legally responsible for any occurrence that takes place whilst you are in the home. Both you and the parent/legal guardian are.
However, there is no law existing to dictate whether they should be left ‘home alone’ or not.
Any judgement will be made based upon if they have been put at risk.
I certainly would not, and indeed have previously declined to, accept responsibility for a child alone in the house.
The ramifications could be enormous.Re: Fairy Active Bursts
Just shows what little I know!! 😳
“Hard Water is effectively a solution of Calcium Carbonate (CaCO3). When hard water is heated up in your house or when the water pressure changes as it does when leaving a tap or suddenly changing direction in an L-bend pipe, the Calcium Carbonate comes out of solution and reverts back to chalk once again. This chalk is of course now called limescale but is still hard deposits of chalk.”
I’ll leave it at that then.
Gert slopes off muttering quietly to himself “Still think Calgon is a waste of money!” :clown:
Re: Fairy Active Bursts
Yeah,
Just after I sent it I thought that maybe someone would point that out!
Sorry.
Still a worthwhile comment though (in the right context, of course! 🙂 )

Calgon, check out who makes it. 😉
K.
Ken,
it’s the advertising that could be perceived as misleading, for both products!
Purely if one were of a disbelieving nature of course! 😉And as for Calgon, now let me see, one wash, ok. Now is it two, three or four rinses these days? 😕
So how does the rinse water get softened to prevent limescale build up?
It doesn’t? Oh. 😮 😛
It never ceases to amaze me how many marvellous (ahem!) products get past the extremely strict and ‘independent’ regulatory body, the Advertising Standards Authority! 🙄Calgon or Soda Crystals. Which one’s a lot cheaper than the other?
I wonder when Calgon will Finish. Oops! Freudian slip!
Re: Fairy Active Bursts
The manufacturers know full well that dishwashers cannot go without salt in hard water areas so why do they not (or more to point whay are they not made to!) include this information in their marketing blurb/ads?
Cynical? Who, me?
Next I’ll hear it being said that Calgon is value for money!
Shiny elements indeed!!
Re: Hotpoint Aqualtis
Blimey, must be the heat! 😯
Thought I read that a hotpoint machine was similar to a Miele :rotfl:
Re: Help! Can’t get Neff panel off!!
If they’re accessible, have you tried drilling the screw heads off?
Re: towels coming out rough
Jose,
Did the customer really contact you for this ‘fault’?!! 😯
And you believed them when they said they use the correct amounts of soap and conditioner?!! 😛
One would ask about the age/quality of the towels as that could make a heck of a difference.
Also, I ‘ve rarely come across a ready-for-washing towel that was ‘nice and fluffy’.
Good luck.
Re: LGH AON At It Again 😕
I’m afraid Graham Mottershead and Nick Hislop (Manager and General Manager respectively of AON Network Services) are constantly hitting their heads against a brick wall re the LGH/AON claims team :haier: . Graham and Nick work extremely hard to set up processes however somehow (yes, I do know how!) these are very rarely followed logically/correctly.
Still, it’s only money! 🙁
