I will never shop at CURRY'S again
I Bought a gas cooker in September 2009 from CURRY'S The grill had to be repaired for the same fault twice in the first year under warranty. Now 18 months later the same fault has occurred again but it is six months out of warranty and CURRY'S refuse to repair it. Customer service were extremely rude when I said I felt this was wrong as this was an ongoing fault and were totally disinterested.
At the same time I bought this cooker my son bought a laptop and paid £199 for an extended warranty until 2012. The letters on the keyboard began wearing off within months and when I spoke to a CURRY'S representative in the store in Cambridge I was told that this was fair wear and tear and not included in the warranty. Have you ever tried to get through to your local CURRY'S? It is not possible. It is a nightmare trying to get through on the phone each department puts you on hold and I am sure their customer service representatives are given nastiness lessons and probably poked with pins as they sit on the phone to make them irritable, rude and cruel to us their customers. I will never shop at CURRY'S again. I would advise anyone to look at the list of COMPLAINTS posted on the internet about CURRY'S before they shop there. You WILL be treated with respect at CURRY'S when you walk into their shop to empty your pockets into their tills but after that BUYER BEWARE!!!

CURRYS....BUYER BEWARE
Bought a gas cooker from CURRYS in September 2009 and the grill had to be repaired twice in the first year for the same fault. Cooker is now 18 months old and exactly the same fault has occurred again but CURRY'S say as the warranty has expired they will not repair it. I was told to get an engineer to inspect the cooker at my own expense and send the report to CURRY'S to see if they would consider a repair, I am disabled, on a low income and can not afford to do this. When I disagreed with this because it was an ongoing fault their customer service rep told me I was not listening and refused to give me head office address saying she was their representative and they would back her up. At the same time I bought the cooker my son bought a laptop and paid £199 for an extended warranty until 2012. The letters on the keyboard started wearing off within months and some are now completely missing. The customer advisor at Currys has told me that this is classed as fair wear and tear and not covered by the warranty. I will never shop at CURRY'S again. The only time you are shown any kind of respect from them is when you are giving them your cash. Before you buy at CURRY'S take a look at the complaints logged on the internet. CURRY'S customer service is disgusting and rude and uncaring. BUYER BEWARE

Installation fee fraud
Bought washing machine plus installation service which includes,
• Check that existing electrical and plumbing connections are safe and appropriate to be used for the new appliance
• Disconnect the existing appliance
• Unbox and check the new product
• Remove transit bolts
• Connect to existing plumbing and electrical sockets plus level the appliance
• Test the appliance to make sure there are no leaks
• Take away your old appliance for recycling if requested
• Ensure you are happy with the installation
When deilvered all packaging removed and "installed" but refused to test run as not his job so i tried & wouldnt drained been trying to get resolved since refused refund within 7days as "used" as not in original condition but if currys website says they take packaging off and get it working for you how can it be in original condition? Was told they charge for the installation but not always possible to do so due to the drivers no engineer came out even when "booked" team leaders etc said have no idea refuse to take calls and hang up.
Theyre actually breaking trading laws by falsely advertising not just to the UK but EU as well, absloute terrible customer service to this day i still have not received receipt as it was a purchase over and not in-store, I would expect this beheaviour from an unoffcial plumber but not a multi million Superstore like Currys!
If youve had similar situation complain and file a case they are breaking the law, trading stantards were contacted on my behalf by consumers direct!

TV Repair
Bought a tv 8 months ago, with a 12 month guarantee only to find out when it went faulty, that the repair man will want to take it away for 28 days and you are not given a temp replacement, you are just left with no TV, rude on the phone to the extent that i felt i was being unreasonable.
Why dont they give you a replacement, or at least try and repair it at home, taking it away for 28 days as a first option is really poor.
Why call the person coming out a repair man, shouldnt it be, look at and removal man
Honestly these companies, as soon as they have your money, its a nightmare, do they not think of future sells and the customer

fault of sales group
I bought a wireless USB adapter. When I pay the product, I asked sales girl whether I can get it returned if it's not worked in my computer. The sales girl said "YES". However, I couldn't get it returned or exchanged. They said I opened the product already. What the hell is that? It's cheating. How I know whether it's worked in my computer or not if I not opened it? Cheating! Cheating! Cheating! They didn't tell in 1st place when I bought it!!! Unlike Argos, they state clearly when you buy it; if not I surely would buy it at Argos. What the hell is Currys? Hell Currys!

faulty laptop
I purchased an Advent laptop from Currys Cardiff in February last year, and some weeks later it developed start up problems which gave difficulty in getting into the computer. Sometimes the computer would work for some time with no problems, and would start again with no warning. The computer would go into the start up repair mode but it always came back with the message that it could not repair. I complained to Currys and they collected the computer for repair. When it came back it worked for a little while but it started to devleop the same problem. I then contacted Currys again who took me through a programme over the phone which worked for a while. In all seven phone calls were made and a further return to Currys in November - all efforts to repair came to nothing. I wrote to Currys in January this year requesting a repalcement . Someone rang me to say that my request was being refused, but that I could submit an engineers report at my own expence which they would consider. I asked for all this be put in writing to me, but this was refused. All letters to head office went unanswered. The engineers report confirmed everything I was complaining about. At this stage I asked Trading Standards for help, and they were excellent. They took over the complaint which still required me to send the computer back to Currys for their own engineer to examine. After much haggling with Trading Standards Currys gave me a replacement computer together with my engineers £40 fee. I can not say anything positve about Currys complaints proceedure. They will put every obstical in the way, hoping you will go away. Without Trading Standards I would not have stood a chance
