Default RANT dont use Laskys for electrical stuff

I ordered monday a £500 washing machine..

sold to me on the basis of Guaranteed Thurday delivery

called me tuesday to say it moving to Friday .. me not happy but agreed.

Wed I was told it would be Saturday i said no way - complained to supervisor and friday was re instated and assured.

Today- waiitng in- I called the delivery number- they said its scheduled for Saturday!

called them e mailed them . they are diabolical.. customer service awful, systems diabolical. empathy none existent

Might be cheaper than elsewhere but now I see why- Avoid them at all costs. it will cost you wasted days of work and stress.

LASKYS = crap . avoid


that is all

To be fair Quiff they did let you know! But I do agree they shouldnt promise things they cant deliver. Its hard to say what might have caused a delay though?

Still, you have a rite to be a little upset. just take a step back, and relax. Stress kills.

Take care and may your clothes be clean!

Oh my God, what kind of an establishment are they running there...who would have thought it, and a reputable place like Sainsburys too!!
Right both that and Laskys are now officially black listed on the VT list!
