Consumer rights
Happy new year to you all.
Back in high school I had the worst haircut ever. I don't know what I was thinking to be honest. You can see what I mean by going to the gallery. A few embarrassing pictures of me and my equally strange looking friends can be seen there. They were taken 10 years ago at the great Wales High School, which just so happens to be nowhere near Wales.
I've changed the colours of this site yet again. And again it's because of a sheer lack of anything else to do with my time.
When I first opened the doors to my glorious Church, the text was red on a black background. I still don't think I'm happy with it though. Curse my tinkering nature.
The last couple of weeks I've been pushing my consumer rights. Firstly, the shiny chrome custom built split rims that cost me £1500 aren't shiny any more, and even look rusted. I bought them last March, so I don't expect them to look so bad in such a short space of time. I'm in the process of trying to claim my money back. I will succeed.
I'm riding high on the wave of my recent victory over a company called Trust, who manufactured my graphics tablet. After four months of flawless usage, it didn't work with my new image software. A few heated email exchanges later and I claimed a full refund.
I've found that although the customer is always wrong, he is right when the customer is me. Thanks to being articulate and a git, I can get anything. I'm a store managers worst nightmare. If it goes wrong, there's hell to pay.
Shoddy internet retailer PC World was my next victim: an order placed December 19th never arrived. Today I cancelled it for several reasons. Firstly I phoned the delivery company DHL, who, for the last week, have been taking my package to an unknown location; their order tracking facility showed me their incompetence. After confirming with them that they had my correct address, they still tried to deliver it somewhere else. The last thing I wanted was some dishonest moron collecting my package and it disappearing; I'd have had a nightmare trying to prove I didn't receive the goods. Secondly, I phoned PC World and told them I didn't want them to have my money because they sucked. I think I'll send them a hate-filled email requesting compensation for the money spent on phone calls and distress caused by not getting my package. Or something. I'll make them pay for their insolence.
Check out the DJ Chat page. Just added it.
It takes some setting up, but I covered it all so it's nice and easy to do. There's always someone chatting in there too, although a lot of the time it's about rubbish when I'm not speaking. When I do speak, the topic usually changes for the better. By that I mean I start talking about myself, and everyone loves me.
