I bought a HP laptop from Curry's in January. After about four weeks use, one Sunday afternoon it suddenly closed itself down without warning. Appeared to have gone into hibernation mode but I couldn't get it turn on again. I took it into Curry's who sent it away to their repair offshoot (The Techguys). It came back this week, unrepaired with an engineer's report saying 'liquid damage, no coverplan'.
The laptop absolutely did not suffer 'liquid damage' before it failed. I talked to various people at Curry's and none would help at all, simply referring over and over again to this engineer's report.
Anybody offer advice on this matter? I asked around and soon found a few people who had experienced exactly the same treatment with Curry's on laptops and mobile phones. I'm appalled at the way I've been treated over this matter, since I KNOW the machine didn't suffer any liquid damage whilst in my possession. It seems a simple way for them to avoid aftercare costs and it seems I can't do a thing about it?
Thoughts or advice?
Paul.
