...price. Each lot is sold in quantities, depending on what is in stock. It is aired for as long as it takes for the quantity to sell. Who ever buys will always pay the final lowest price when the product sells out. ** THE SHOW** Firstly, there are different presenters working through out the day and into the small hours. They all do a good job in 'selling' the product they have at the time. The presenter will chat through out the product airing, ...

Review of TV Warehouse

Auctionworld TV

Advantages: Good quality items at low prices
Disadvantages: Customer service virtually non-existent

...looking for a bargain, then Auctionworld meets the criteria, but pray hard that you neither have to return the item nor raise a query or a complaint; you will get nowhere as my partner and I have recently discovered. We have bought several items from the shopping channels and have been very pleased with both the quality and value for money. Customer service has been good on them all, with the exception of Auctionworld and its sister channel Chase-It. ...
..."Service" we wrote to the Auctionworld office complaining and to our surprise we have not received a reply. My partner has also requested that a Manager calls him back. Surprise, surpise - no return call! After eventually getting through yet again, he was told he was on a call back list. That was a week ago. Still nothing! Our next point of call is Trading Standards Office as we are getting nowhere with Auctionworld. My overall opinion of this ...

Review of Auctionworld

IS THIS A BREACH OF DATA PROTECTION ?

Advantages: Quality service overall
Disadvantages: Premium Phone Rate

I have had no problems with Bid TV at all there items have always arrived on time and have had no cause to send anything back, the only fly in the ointment for me is that as far as I am concerned they seem to be breaching a data protection issue because I have noticed they have started to put my home phone number above my address on the postage label. I did speak to them about this a couple of months ago and tried to get across that indeed it is ...
...number is Ex Directory to start with, so much for that when it is lying around in a warehouse awaiting to be delivered etc, and being as we live in a world where a lot of burglaries take place someone has only to ring that telephone number to see if anyone is in the house. I will be writing to Bid TV this time as I feel my phone call has taken no effect whatsoever even though the lady promised me the phone number would be taken off the label. Was ...
