Aha, our good friends in the electronic retail sector, Comet submitted by Simon Moxon

An entertaining trip to Comet to return my friend John’s faulty Xbox: John: “Hi, I bought this XBOX last week, and as soon as I plugged it in it came up with a message on the screen saying it’s faulty”

Smart car dealership, London

An ill furnished warehouse in the region of Abbey Road London is masquerading as a purveyor and importer of fine automobiles. Upon hearing of a Porsche 996 GT2 in their showroom, I made my way there to window browse and

Dixons group stores, London

You know, the group that houses the infamous high street retailers such as Dixons, Currys, PC World and Link. Everytime I go in there I always vow never to return, but we always do. I stood next to two shop

London BMW dealers

Hexagon and Millcars, to name a couple. Unfortunately, we know they don’t have to kiss ass to get anywhere. Business comes to them in these areas. North London is known for having a bit of money, so why chase people

I HATE TEMPO

The most dire establishment I have ever had the misfortune in dealing with. From the prepubescent managers to the emotionless, heartless, ‘reading-from-a-page-attatched-to-my-monitor’ customer support. I have never, ever in my life resorted to hanging up my phone in anger. I

Sennheiser (nominated by Blow Dog)

A welcome return after such an absence, what better way to start than by awarding a straight 10/10 to Sennheiser, manufacturers of fine headphones and recording equipment. After owning a set of EH2200’s for a number of years, I was

First Direct Bank (nominated by Simon Pricket )

Always friendly, always get to speak to a real person. They’re open 24 hours, and have done silly things for me like arranged car loans at 3am while I lived in California and 3am UK time was a good time

Ever heard of the dealer principle inviting you in to his house for coffee? Nope, nor had I until I spoke to these guys. They really are the most accomodating guys I have ever dealt with, not only giving me

Old fashion store that revels on old fashioned customer service. Latest equipment, superb service but not only that, they will price match anything you buy from them for up to a month after purchase. Internet, mail order, anything. Thats why

Why the 997 GT3 is the best car I’ve ever owned.
