    Can you still get warranty on electrical goods bought in N.I. and transported south? I would be concerned about large spend items in case warranty was not honoured by their ROI agents? Anyone got experience of this?

    I'd have to recommend Seamus Watters Electrical in Culloville.

    Prices wont be beat and after sales service is second to none. Our Fridge Freezer stopped making ice a couple of weeks after we bought it and they sent out an engineer the next day and fixed it no problem.

    My mam had a dishwasher that was a couple of months out of warrenty so Seamus wrote her a new reciept so it would still be fixed...

    As I said above - Seamus Watters in Culloville is cheaper than the south, friendly, able to haggle and wonderful aftersales service.
