"your currently monetary refund policy states"

"your current monetary refund policy states"
Also, perverse and not perversed.

What were you doing buying an Amp from Motorworld anyway? Just because it's cheap doesn't neccessarily mean its a bargain.

you bought the amp. it 1) works and 2) amplifies the sound as stated on the box. so you dont have a leg to stand on.
if i got that letter it would get laughed at and thrown in the bin

wish I hadn't posted it on here now!
no offence but, as someone mentioned above, some people on here have the personality of a damp sponge 
no offence guys but some of you are just sad (dont take it to heart!)
And Robbo, I think you'l find theres nothin wrong with getting people off drink-driving, their mistakes are getting rectified, and theres money in it. Everyone wins. And before you say 'well what if someone got injured/killed', that would be a totally different kettle of fish

You can't make comments like you do and expect to get on with anyone.
And i'm betting your actually 18.
I can't understand why a 'respected defence lawyer' would lie about their age on a car forum

you are not entitled to a refund, so you cant really moan about it

youve gotta remember that Asda, Tesco etc give refunds 30 days after sale, and Argos do a 16 day money back guarantee.
Even halfords gave me a refund after 2 weeks with no proper box or receipt
Yea, and if Motorworld don't feel like it then they don't have to. There is no law saying they are meant to give people refunds as soon as you change your mind.
sale and supply of goods act plus consumer rights act states that if a consumer is not happy with the product and returns it in a resaleble condition within an appropriate period of time (usualy a month) then a refund/vouchers
obviously not in those words, but thats the general gist of it as far as im aware
*not valid on sat nav as they contain licensed software and something to do with the data protection act*

no the Sale of Goods Act 1979, Supply of Goods and Services Act 1982, Sale and Supply of Goods Act 1994., The Sale and Supply of Goods to Consumers Regulations 2002 outlines that the customer is entitled to a refund if the item is not fit for the purpose it was bought for. ie. it is not of satisfactory build quality, described correctly. so unless the item is faulty then you are not entitled to a refund,and even then it must be within a 'resonable time', after this time they may be offered a replacment. or a partial refund if they have had some benifit from the goods
all refunds outside this are at the discretion of the store managment. THis is ofcause extended by the distance sellers act inwhich the individual is entitled to a 14 day 'cooling off period' inwhich they can cancell the order or return the item (it reselable condition) for a full refund minus postage and packing (and any outlined administration charge)
Companies have policies above and beyond this, and it really pisses me off when people think they are entitled to refunds when they've changed there minds/ realised they cant really afford it. not inplying that you are one of them

Is this letter a little harsh:
RE: Product Refund
Dear Sir / Madam,
I am writing on behalf of a longterm client whom I have been advising on a refund procedure, involving your stores.
It appears as though Motorworld employ, what I perceive to be, a very odd and indeed perversed refund system, if you’d call it that at all. As quoted from your website, your currently monetary refund policy states, that a full refund will be warranted if:
· Items are returned in original packaging
· Items are returned in re-saleable condition
· Items cannot be accepted for return which have been specially ordered for you or manufactured to your specification
The item matched all of the criterion above, and yet my client was, what I’d best describe as, ‘fobbed off’ and made to feel intimidated by what is effectively a huge corporation which has little to no respect for its customers nor their rights.
The item was a vehicle audio aftermarket amplifier, of the manufacturer JBL inc. and of the specification GTO2000. It was purchased in the sale, at a total sum of £74.99. It is not far off disgraceful how a company of your calibre would refuse a customer a refund, the device was initially suspected to be broken as the client believed it to be not performing as the specification suggested, and it was marketed so.
Quoting from consumer rights laws, we can clearly see that the 1979 Consumer Rights Act states that goods must be warranted a refund if:
· They are not of satisfactory quality
· They are not as described
· They are not fit for purpose
My client believes that the goods did not meet any of the above criterion, particularly the first two. “Satisfactory Quality” is not quantifiable, and is a matter of opinion. In this case, my client clearly felt that the item in question did not meet the first two criterion.
Subsequently, I strongly urge you to review your policies, and in the mean time my client and I will be reviewing a case for the Small Claims Court. Please standby for further action while we review evidence.
Many Thanks,
considering its all fake and no solicitors are involved

I can only see them givingyou a refund if
They are not of satisfactory quality - so it is not built well, bits are falling off, conecters don't fit snugly etc
They are not as described - I'm asumming there is somthing not on the amp that is described on the box then
They are not fit for purpose - it was not an amp but a chocolate chesse cake
however I suspect that none of these are true and you just thought it were crap after you bought a cheap amp
