There's a fair few threads like this I've discovered.

like it says in the thread the email address I eventually got to work was customercare@play.com. The other's ive been given (inc the one above) just throw back 'unnattended mailbox' emails.

If they are all crap, they can all just stay crap basically. Its infuriating, i know how you feel Dave.

I`ve ordered shedloads of stuff from them and never had a problem. The one time I did was when I bought a PC and when it came it was German XP installed. They refunded the money no problem. Hope you get it sorted

Good for you mate, screaming via email is much better than screaming on the phone. On the phone they can hang up and accuse you of being rude to them. Via email, they can just read it and weep (or go "meh" as the case may be).
