there are four golden rules:
a) examine the goods you buy at once. if they are faulty, tell the seller quickly.
b) keep any receipts you are given. if you have to return something, the receipt will help to prove where and when you bought it.
c) don’t be afraid to complain. you are not asking a favour to have faulty goods put right. the law is on your side.
d) be persistent (but not aggressive). if your complaint is justified, it is somebody’s responsibility to put things right.
