Hmmm....PC World
« on: 28 January 2014, 09:35:08 »

I hate these places with a passion but, was in need of a new router and they were well priced.

So I reserved online an Asus RT-N66U N 900 and drove to Loughborough to collect it.

Paid and got home, opened the box and guess what.....

.....it was a DSL-N66U N 900 with internal aerials.

Receipt is correct....product supplied is wrong.

So a phone call requried and then another trip grrrrr.....

Was it incorrectly marked on box? Pcworld are usually pretty good on reservation stuff.

Nope, box is correct.  :y

Clearly they didn;t scan the product and produced the receipt from the reservation (or the system is wrong!).

Call to customer services made....and no resolution, I have to wait for the store to call now

N900 wifi router we had briefly had excellent range.

Not that I have a great deal of experience with them, but it outperformed Virgins super hub 2 by about 20ft

Not sure the precise model, but it had external aerials.

So call placed with customer services at 9.39 and a commitment that the store will call me.

The issue I have is the lost time and fuel.....so they need to try hard!

Any bets on how long it takes for the store to call?

tomorrow at best! I find that firms that promise to call you back rarely, if ever do.  >:(

Not ever. They'll now be figuring that, if you're upset enough, you'll take it back. ::)
