Been on the cards a while http://www.guardian.co.uk/business/2011/may/11/comet-close-stores-service-centres
They were going to keep 2 service centres, the other 12 are history. Maybe they're not going to keep anything at all now?

Well comets do eventually come crashing down !!! All the more work for us then !

Comet are closing all their service centres and getting rid of their service side completely, all work is to be sent back to the manufacturers to sort, 450 will be made redundant in the next 3-6 months.

I was asked to go and work for them a few times but heard all about the areas and the hours the engineers had to work and the training wasnt that great either so i guess it was inevitable . I personally cover the In guarantee repairs of several makes so I stand to gain but I really hope all those affected find alternative employment
