Re: Beware of CCLComputers

NO!! I don't want to start a huge flame or debate either!

The point of the post is to warn everyone to be careful when dealing with these guys.

Thanks for your advice though James

Cheers

  Err, without wishing to start a huge flame/debate over Consumer Rights
  again, I should point out that the Act states "...goods shall be of
  merchantable quality and fit for stated purpose..." (not quoted directly
  from Act)

  Having made your requirement known at the time of purchase, I would enforce
  this right.  If you paid by credit card, then you may have some redress with
  them too.  Either way I wouldn't let them shaft you like this.

  My opinions of course,

  James H
