Time for a Winge

Post by dodger »

Hi,

Our fridge freezer is on the blink so today we bought a new one from a well known company [no name but they do a hot Indian food :lol: ]

So ok, if i wait to the 18th of July i get free delivery or by Friday £20 and they will take your old fridge away for you, thats nice, only it takes 4hrs for the new fridge to to ice up and the old one has to be de-frosted before they take it away, how the bloody hell is that going to work!

Not a case of ,we will pick the old one up say another time, so thats a load of old cobblers and an easy way out!

Not really a problem the local council or steptoe and son will take it i'm sure,

Just thought i would have a winge and get it off my chest and bore the pants of you people :lol:

Cheers,

Roger.

Had similar post Xmas.

Curries Cnut said "wait for tomorrow's sale".

Came back, and F/F was now £85 dearer.

Went elsewhere.

Thats four full days,
i.e.
12 meals, plus suppers

Start eating !

N.B.
Beware -
Although your council may collect,
our's charges for fridges/large items,
and yours might likewise.

We have the pikey scrap metal ones round here. If you leave it visible they will nick it. Who says crime doesn't have its' uses!
