...uk is the online version of the high street computer retailer, PC world. I have always used PC world for my computing demands, be it buying a new computer, computing accessories and games, as they are a name I can trust and have never had any problems with them.

Advantages: None Disadvantages: Expensive, dreadful support
I too will never use PC World again due to their shoddy customer service.
My son bought a PC from them on 18 January last year. They didn't have the advertised one which he wanted (sound familiar?) so he bought a more expensive one. On 5 January the thing died. I called their service line and we ran some diagnostics, the upshot of which was that they decided that the motherboard was dead and needed to be replaced. Fair enough - I have since had ... ...may not be part of PC World, I'm not sure. Anyway the guy told me that the part was not in stock but that he put it on order and they would call me to arrange an engineer visit when they had it. By the 13th I hadn't heard from them and so called back. Again I was told that the part was not available. I said that this was not acceptable and they gave me a number for PC World customer support. Called them and they put me on hold whilst they sorted ...

Quick review of PC World
Customer service is awful. When my laptop developed a fault after only 6 weeks it took me another week (with tech guys having me do system restores and a system recovery) before they picked it up. They have now had laptop for 18 days (after i was told an average of 7 - 10 days) and not once have they contacted me. I had to chase it up myself and depending on whom i speak to I am either told the part needed to fix my laptop is in stock or it isnt in stock - different departments seem to use different computer systems !!!! Would not recommend PC World and will never ever use them again ! ...

Advantages: Great depth in base, looks great, easy to use, durable Disadvantages: Too many wires, sud shakes at higher volumes
When i opened the box and started to put the speackers together i was very impressed with the 'shape co-ordinated' jack sockets which ment you could not physically put the wrong jack in to the wrong input. When i first switched on the speakers and played them through my itouch i was very impressed with the depth of the base and the adjustability of the sub woofer via fiddling with the equalizers. However, at higher volumes the sub woofer will start ... ...around what ever surface they are placed on as the rubber feet do not proivde much friction. All in all i would have been impressed with these speakers even if i had paid 150 for them and they look great!The touch volume controls are very sensitive and the metal casing around the speakers stops my little brother from poking his finger in there! ...

They don't support their warrenty, when you ask for after sales help they just try to flog you services that cannot be of any help, they don't read emails properly and generally don't know the meaning of "customer care"
