I think you would be far better back at home looking after the little ones, where is your husband, he'll know what I'm talking about love! Is that the impression you get when shopping at Comet and been attended to (if you can call it that) by a male customer service assistant (if you can call HIM that!). I can count the ...

I've just been reading another Dooyoo member's opinion on Comet and he summed it up perfectly with his title..Do you want a product to go with your extended warranty, sir? lol That fits the bill perfectly!I must admit that it's not just Comet though, it's all electrical retailers. At least buying electrical goods from Argos, you ...

I visited Comet a week ago to purchase a toaster and to ask about Liberty Surf discs. The shop was not busy but I still stood for 15 minutes before an assistant offered to serve me. The conversation he was having with his colleague about the events of the previous evening seemed more important. I paid for the toaster and asked about ...

Yes I have to really put my opinion across well now as I feel Comet have the most incompetent staff around, and yet they have the best prices and the biggest product range. So I am pleased about Comet? Could I recommend them to you? Well, let me tell you a little story... Around a week ago I decided I was going to purchase an ...

As long as I live I will never buy so much as a blank tape from Comet ever again! A few years ago when I moved into my first house I bought a Computer and a TV from my local Comet store. The computer fell to bits within a week and needed all new bits to get going again, all of which I had to pay for and install myself. This was because ...

Having had to vacate my house due to being hospitalised and burgled I took up temporary residence with my son and his wife and thus no longer had need of my 9 years old Indesit WN 850 WG washing machine. Still being in excellent condition, it was donated to my grandson who at around that time was setting up house with his girl friend. ...

My parents brought a TV from Norweb about 4 and a half years ago, with the 5 year cover. About 2 years later a switch broke, but Norweb had just been taken over by Comet. We called up the number on the receipt and got through to a call centre who arranged an engineer to come out. A Comet engineer arrived (late but at least he got there) and ...

I went to comet recently to buy an electrical kettle costing approx £20. To my surprise, I was offered an extended warantee for 2 years. The Warantee would cost in the region of £12-£13. When I refused, I was offered a dicount of 2-3 pounds. What I could not see was why I sould pay more than 50% extra, for the cumfort of knowing that my kettle ...

I have had so many problems with Comet I have now decided not to set foot in one of their stores ever again. Over a year ago my oven stopped working and after much searching for one that would fit and was of a reasonable price we ended up in Comet. We chose an oven set which was Oven, Hob and extractor fan as it worked out cheaper to ...

You'd have thought I'd have learnt by now. I bought a computer from Comet about 6 months ago. I know they are not the best place to get a computer from, but the deal was quite good, and I have a Time card to pay for my purchases. Lo and behold, after going through all the motions of processing the sale I'm told that the ...

Since buying our house we have bought all our electrical products from comet and always found there prices and service to be second to none. Today for instance we had to return a telephone we bought in March that had stopped charging. It was a BT freestyle with answerphone,and the handset which is removable just wouldn't charge. I took it ...

I have used Comet before and always been pleased with my purchase and received excellent customer service but usually have found them to be too expensive on most items compared to mail order. That is until I went to check out prices of Widescreen TV's - I had armed myself with a price list from a internet mail order company which had the ...

Comet electrical stores stock a wide range of products icluding small household electricals, white goods, computers & accessories, hi fi & televisions. Some ranges are very extensive & some limited especialy the computer section. I have bought several items from them & although I have have had problems with some items the guarentees have ...

I have on many occasions used Comet for the purchase of goods, and I have never had any problems with either their staff or their aftersales service. Although I do think that some stores may be different to others. I had bought a television from the Colchester store and it developed a fault as in the speakers started to hum, after 3 ...

Over the years I've bought quite a few bits from Comet, their prices and service have been fairly good so no problems there. However almost every time I've bought something reasonably expensive from them at the point of sale they always ask you if you'd like an extended warranty. This is one of those commission led, high ...

comet don't know the meaning of price match. recently i saw a advert in the paper for "toys-r-us" offering a phillips c12 bt cellnet "u" pay as you go phone for £24.99. as i don't live near a "toys-r-us" store , i went to my local "comet" store which was selling the same mobile phone for £29.99 . i ...

Many stores are doing this now. They promise that is you find the same equipment elsewhere but cheaper then they will refuind you the difference. This is supposed to make customers happy that they can buy the cheapest product from this store with confidence. However, it's a scam. Comet only offer this on selected deals. Usually ...

After much too-ing and fro-ing between different stores I decided to buy my Sony HI-8 camcoder from Comet in Aberdeen. Scotland. The model I had chosen was on display in the cabinet and was the last one in stock. The sales person offered me a free 3 year guarantee instead of discount as I was paying cash. Once I got it home i ...

We were looking to buy a new freezer and after looking in serveral shops we found that comet was the cheapest. We returned to the store to be told that the last one had just been sold but they could order us another one. As we are impatient, we decided that we could look in another comet store and take one home with us there and then. We looked in ...

I bought my (first) computer from Comet two years ago and whilst happy with the computer (eventually) was far from impressed with the customer service I got. Having never owned a computer before I asked friends and family with computer knowledge their advice on what best suited my needs and tried to read up as much as possible on the ...
