I placed an order yesterday which included a 600 x 900 double panel radiator . The end panel was damaged an I tried calling the 0870 777 xxxx number which was on the enclosed leaflet and it was constantly engaged.. I telephoned Screwfix to ask about that and they gave me an alternative number which they said was for Kudos Rads but the lady ,who could hardly speak English ,said they had only been supplying rads to Screwfix for one week which didn't sound like they had supplied my rad as it was the same model as one I got months ago ( says FIX on the end panel).
I then called Screwfix again and was told the rad was supplied by Valiant and gave me another number and ,unconvinced by this ,I called them to be told that they did not supply panels and to contact Screwfix to have to explain the whole friggin' story again to be told " Oh we willl just send you another rad out " which was just what I did not want to be told and I tried to speak to a supervisor but after several minutes of silence I had to put the phone down and redial
This time ,still with no supervisor,the girl offered again to have a new rad sent out ...clearly my explanation that it was the end panel that was the problem and there was no guarantee the replacement rad would be anyy different ...didn't strike home .She also said I could take the rad to a local branch ....(but she did admit she had never lifted a double radiator ).
What she did say was that they knew of the problem with the 0870 number I had been trying to call and they were trying to get that resolved .. I said I would attempt to get in touch with the company meantime ..Her reply was that I had 30 days to get an exchange rad.
Not good enough Screwfix...
