Two-lane Posted November 16, 2022 Share Posted November 16, 2022 There seems to be some enthusiasm for American-style franchises. Hooters is an American franchise. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can't get them to deal with customer complaints and accept that customers are entitled to bring things back for repair rather then send them off to the company that actually made the goods. They insist that if the packaging has been opened then it is no longer their responsibility. Catch 22. (sorry to derail ) Do we really need them ?

Was it something that you bought on the website and delivered / installed at home. If so then I think you may have to go to the manufacturer. ( same if you ordered it online for pick up at store ) If its something that you bought in store then they seemed to be happy to help. ( at least that's what they did for me when o had an issue with an item which I bought from the store Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I try and go with established local firms now, although there is less choice and probably more cost. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was at the counter the other week behind about 5 other people who were ALL taking stuff back because it was broken/shit/had issues. There was nobody actually buying anything. The place is an embarrassment I generally always go to Colebourns. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is always a line of muppets returning stuff and normally because they didn’t read the specs properly before purchase and thought it would do something it doesn’t. I could count on one hand the items I had returned in my whole life and yet speak to others who are returning things weekly. I don’t get it. Decide what you want, make sure it is fit for purpose, buy it. Only a fault in that actually stopped an item working as intended would trigger a return. These must be the same people you see at B&Q returning a £3 light bulb because the purchased the wrong one, who have spent more than £3 in fuel plus an hour of their time to get there and back.
