Ring them up and YELL AT THEM LIKE BRIAN BLESSED
I hate it when customers do this to me, but it makes you feel better!

HAve you ever tried ringing PC World?
I did tonight and failed to speak to a hooman. When I got to the repairs option I was told to log onto the tech section of the website by some pre-recorded voice, which then hung up on me.

I've emailed them instead.

And the new monitor return policy states that goods should be returned unused and unopened, but the no-speaker situation only presented itself when everything was hooked up to the pooter.

I am therefore going to drink beer until I can no longer stand up.

No, but I imagine it would make me feel better to scream obscenities at the robot.
I do it to automated cold callers; the real ones I babble at in French and then hang up on!

Buying stuff from PC World is as pleasurable as sitting your bare bum on glowing coals with sharp edges.
Got my Laptop from them. Laptop itself is what I expected it to be, but finding out it's specifications was like scraping my fingernails on a chalkboard (and afterwards the remains of my bum after the coal-torture). Needless to say, when I get my Desktop PC, I'll be buying the parts from a specialist shop and assembling it myself.
