Maplins/ Letter to the Office of the Director of Consumer Affairs

Not quite Rip-Off Ireland in respect of prices, but certainly in respect of customer service. As a result of bad customer service from Maplins following my having bought some faulty product from them, I sent a letter to the ODCA.

I bought some electrical components from them recently. Didn't shop around because I saw they're price promise sign -
"We guarantee the cheapest prices around"

Went to Peats the next week, and found most of the components I bought at considerably cheaper prices. (as much as 50% cheaper)

I guess I coulda got my money back from Maplin if I held onto the receipt, but I don't think they should have that sign up.

I shoulda shopped in an Irish store initially I guess..
