been round in circles on their stupid site. Filled my trolley three times
and each time I got the checkout it had screwed up. Giving up and looking
for other stuff elsewhere

Not sure if this is the answer but many sites require the use of cookies to
process online shopping. Are you security settings too high? Never had
any problems with Dixons/Currys site myself.

Agreed...
Had a nightmare ordering... finally ordered... they took the money
IMMEDIATELY, said delivery was due on or before Friday...

Friday comes, and so does an email... "Oh gosh, we're just so busy,
we'll try get it to you for NEXT weekend and we'll let you know if it's
going to be too late for Christmas".

Then an hour on hold on an 0870 number to argue with a CS rep to get the
money back for a product that apparently wasn't even in stock.

AVOID!!!!!

Be careful though - you would be commiting an offence if you conspire to =
