I bought a £900 TV from a big company online and collected it from one of their stores at the end of June.
This TV developed a major fault 3 weeks after purchase.
I phoned their customer care centre and was instructed to return the TV to the same store where it would be tested and if found to be faulty I would receive a new replacement.
I did this straight away, but when I got there, they said it would have to go back to the distribution centre then they would send out the new set to the store for collection and this process would take 3 days.
I agreed to this, but was never contacted so I phoned their call centre a couple of times only to be fobbed off.
I was fed up of trying to get through on the phone so started to send emails instead.
This is when I discovered that the set had been lost in transit and they had started an investigation with their courier with no indication of how long this will take.
In the meantime they are refusing to replace or refund the TV, bearing in mind that I did not lose the TV (they did) is their stance reasonable?
If not, what should I do about it?
Just to be clear, they have had the money for more than 5 weeks and the TV for the last 2 weeks.
Cheers
