Can anyone advise me here? I bought a washing machine which broke down after 20 months. Pixmania - the retailer - refused to pay for the repair and just said the guarantee had run out. To cut a long story short I took this to the small claims court and won the case, the retailer agreed to pay but has not. It now seems that I cannot get the court to enforce the payment because Pixmania's head office is outside of the UK (Paris). I think they must know this and that is why they have not paid, but I am unwilling to leave it at that and really want to firstly get my money back but mostly to see justice done, so that these big companies cannot just get away with this kind of thing! Any legal eagles out there that can help?
