Durbanite Posted August 23, 2017 Share Posted August 23, 2017 Took advice this morning and seems I've made the mistake of posting it back myself, lesson learnt,ignore the warranty talk and the lies you are told regarding them. Have you decided how you want to move forward. Pay the bill or buy another system? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
6206greg Posted August 23, 2017 Author Share Posted August 23, 2017 Have you decided how you want to move forward. Pay the bill or buy another system? Certainly won't be paying the bill on what turns out to be a troublesome unit, part of the warranty terms were that they return it, so see what comes back, at least they can't repair it and sell it on. ...

I thought you said the warranty work had been done? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
6206greg Posted August 24, 2017 Author Share Posted August 24, 2017 Yes that's right, as warranty Work has been carried it's down to them to post it back. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
6206greg Posted August 26, 2017 Author Share Posted August 26, 2017 It's getting worse, Megasat are now asking for €61 as they have spent time looking into the damage, Damage I knew nothing about. These fellas really are taking the mick. Unbelievable. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

These fellas really are taking the mick. Unbelievable. Did you pay for it using a credit card as that may be your solution due to "Breach of Contract"? Although it failed after 12 months the breach of contract is because it was not durable taking into account the price paid as per my post #23. Is it now fixed or in the same faulty condition?

These fellas really are taking the mick. Unbelievable. Damage which was clearly caused whilst in their care?? perhaps, or at least because they didn't inform you on its arrival - you can assert that when asking them to return it. Can't help remembering Red Apple Digital's post extolling the virtues of this product. Wonder how they feel about your experience? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Can't help remembering Red Apple Digital's post extolling the virtues of this product. Wonder how they feel about your experience? Believe Red Apple have ceased supplying Snipe 2 kit. Wonder if it's as a result of reliability issues? Or is there some truth in the rumour (2nd hand) that says a Snipe 3 is coming along? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Or is there some truth in the rumour (2nd hand) that says a Snipe 3 is coming along? I Spoke with the fella at Red Apple a few weeks ago and yes he has stopped selling the them due to large quantities being returned I heard the snipe3 will be arriving soon, I don't think i'll be bothering. . Did you pay for it using a credit card as that may be your solution due to "Breach of Contract"? Although it failed after 12 months the breach of contract is because it was not durable taking into account the price paid as per my post #23. Is it now fixed or in the same faulty condition? I'm told the warranty work has been carried out,repairs to the damage hasn't been done Quote Link to post Share on other sites
6206greg Posted September 6, 2017 Author Share Posted September 6, 2017 Well after lots of emails, probably £50 worth of phone calls to Germany, it has returned home in its damaged state today, they paid for the return . Very disappointing, after repeatedly asking why i wasn't informed of the damage on delivery all i got was "i don't know". Lesson learnt. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Mallah Posted September 6, 2017 Share Posted September 6, 2017 Perhaps as a final hoorah you can contact them to say it has arrived even more damaged and claim compensation 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
