Myself and the wife in a moment of madness bought a new TV in Currys (first new telly in nearly 15 years). A panasonic LCD telly, which is very nice. Bought a week past Saturday. Last Saturday we were having a nosey in our local shops and noticed in Comet the same telly was £200 cheaper. . .S***!!!
Saw the Currys price promise and went home to get the receipt. . .no where to be found despite the fact she files everything (so she says!!)
It`s now Thursday. . .still no where to be found! Since I`ve stopped beating her up I thought I`d better to do something a bit more positive. Can I do anything? On another note whats the deal if something goes wrong during warranty? Does anyone have any experience of a similar situation, can Currys reproduce my receipt?
Anyone with any experience or idea`s will be gratefully appreciated. £200 is a fair bit of money just to let go of, especially at this time of year and with 2 young ones looking for everything thats, plastic, shiny and noisey!!!
cheers

they should have asked for your name and address and u should be on their system so they should be able to get u a copy of the receipt.

is it not in your wallet or her purse still?
Was it with the packaging & thrown out with it?
I quite like the Helpdesk people in a benevolent (as opposed to malevolent) way as they do some valuable work in preventing us being inundated by every halfwit who can work a phone.

We paid with vouchers (we had some DSG vouchers) and visa. I have the box in the hut thought it might have just been put in there no joy!!! Not sure how this price promise nonsense works though, becuase I`d need to wait till my visa statement comes through for proof of purchase that wat.

Err... try talking to curries and what forms of proof would they accept. As someone else pointed out - they have your name and address on the system so they should be able to track you easily from that. Failing that, you can prove your purchase via the credit card stmt - get your bank to send you an interim one.
