Not to sure I'm with you on this one Gareth

If you order something  ---------- then you have bought it

If you are lucky  you can get hold of someone who has the authority to
canc=
el.

Normally this will be a small company --    see my previous post

Smarthome  are a large company with "checkout people on the till"

If you go for cheap you have to accept that level of service

Well, I'd now like to add that SmartHome have BAD service. Placed the=20
order, but needed to cancel (found another UK supplier) - they have=20
REFUSED to cancel - only been an hour and 15 mins since I placed the=20
order. The order has not left their warehouse.

That's the first and very last time I ever used SmartHome.com. How many=20
people are on this list - a few thousand ??
