Argos Reviews

AVOID!! I pre-ordered a PS3 online, but cancelled when they took payment 3 weeks before it was due to be delivered! I am still waiting for the refund 6 weeks later despite them saying they have issued it a number of times........ obviously lying! Another thing.......... don't use there premium phone number to contact then, use ...

The last time i visited my local argos store in Hastings was yesterday when i went to buy a broadband modem to get me on dooyoo. The level of service you recieve is next to none with friendly members of staff at all times of the day. ***Products*** They have an extensive range of products and in my case they do have something for ...

i would like to start by saying how i think that this shop provides amazing choice. There are litterally thousands and thousands of products that you can purchase. The price is relatively cheap as well. The catologue also gives very clear decriptions of the products available. For example, I wanted to purchase a CD player, however I ...

I recently ordered a double bed from Argos Direct and encountered several problems and extremely poor service. I will keep this review short, but I for one will never use this company again. 1) Mid- July placed order for bed Online. Order unsuccessful no reason stated. 2) Two days later placed order via telephone. Informed 7 - 14 days ...

I bought a small upright/handheld vacuum cleaner on the Argos website. It was described as having good tools and accessories - nothing was said about the fact that it was only suitable for dwarves in upright mode. It arrived on time. That is all that was positive about it. Being an upright cleaner one would expect it to have a handle long ...

Argos rather like to paint themselves as a user friendly, customer focussed company. If that were true I would still buy things from them. I learnt the hard way just how much they care about their customers. At the beginning of April 2002 I had the misfortune to fall down the stairs at my local station and bust up my ankle rather badly. ...

I have just bought the Nokia 3310 for my son for christmas.What a great deal to get a digital camera as well.I was desperately thinking of a suitable present for the inlaws and now I have the perfect solution at no cost at all! what could be better.The Nokia 3310 is a great phone for all ages but the camera was a bit tricky to understand the ...

I placed an order with Argos Direct for some weights and was told my item would be delivered on Friday 27th September 2002. My father waited between the stated hours of 8am and 6pm and nothing turned up. The customer service line for Argos Direct orders is absolutely terrible. I have spent £5 in phone calls waiting over an hour and did ...

I have used Argos for years, in fact, the majority of my Christmas shopping came from Argos and most of the presents I received were from there too! I grew up in a small Cornish town where Argos was considered the best thing since sliced bread, and it was basically the only shop to buy from unless you ventured to Truro, or even further to Plymouth ...

- Try Argos for size. I think that the Argos TV Adverts are one of the brighter adverts that you see nowaday (especially as it has been used so many times) and I bet that they are loving it because they are generally quite short and so it costs less air time and also I imagine they are quite cheap to produce - no expensive actors or sets ...

I love the Argos ad! Don't quite know why. Is it just me, and my simply mind which is please by the ageing rock of Status Quo's 'Whatever you want'? Probably, but then there is the bizarre notion that dividing the screen into four squares (possible Abba video reference), showing pictures of kettles, breville ...

Right ok, first of all, I have nothing against argos itself. I do have something against its adverts though! First off, what’s with the colour schemes?! Do they want to put us off their products or just make us look away from the screen for a while to rest our eyes from the ummm, lovely greens, oranges and yellows. They may have ...

The ad: Close up on the Christmas supplement of the Argos Catalogue. A cartoon Santa flys around the screen as products sre flashed up so quickly it really is hard to make any of them out. I think there may have been a toaster, a mixer and some toys among the selection. Meanwhile, Status Quo are playing... OK, so Status Quo were quite ...

At last we have found how Status Quo stay in pocket. They sell their songs to Argos to use in advertisements. That is fine and a good way to make money but the public Dont like Status Quo songs. How to annoy your potential market. 1)Put a Status Quo song on your advert. 2)Decorate it with images of toys that children will keep on about ...

This advert annoys me sooooo much-it is difficult to express in words my extreme hatred for it. Ok, it was alright the first few times that it was on, but after 5 weeks of it, no-one can deny that it does get just a little irritating. To make matters worse, this is one of those adverts where not only do u see it once in a slot (which is ...

You know Christmas is fast approaching when the catchy tune “Whatevva you want….” graces our screens. Besides the fact that this must be the most annoying tune ever played, the advert is unbelievably naff. A variety of tacky merchandise crosses the screen, can you spot which are real and available at a reasonable cost at a ...
