Beko UK make crap appliances

 I got food poisoning because my Beko/Blomberg fridge, 2 and a half years after I bought it brand new had leaked all its refrigeration gas. I was just in their guarantee period, and after 3 engineer visits, he filled it up with the gas again. No attempt was made to find the leak. I suspect, I will be needing a new fridge again, and rest assured, it wont be Beko/Blomberg. They had the cheek to send me a link to review their service on trust pilot, to which they then replied asking to email them so that could help. They didn't. 


Below is the email conversation.


Hi


The attached images should have most of the details you asked for. The invoice is from McEvoy & Rowley. 

[I attached images to the email of the receipt, and serial and model number sticker]

What happened is after 2.5 years use of the fridge, I got food poisoning. It took me about a week after that to figure out the fridge wasn't keeping food cool, and the compressor was running constantly.


After 3 visits from your engineer, he regassed the fridge. I suspect that in 2.5 years time I will have the same problem again.

to me


Good afternoon,


Thank you for your email.


Upon looking into this for you, we can see that the engineer has left a note advising that the appliance would need to be monitored after the repair and if you are experiencing any further issues with the performance, you would need to get in touch to let us know, so that we can assist accordingly.


Kindly do not hesitate to get in touch with us if you are noticing any drops in performance or experiencing any issues that you would like to report for us to possibly assist with.


Kind regards

Hi Beko UK!!


Thank you so much for NOT addressing any of my concerns or questions at all. I have updated my review to reflect that. 

I guess, when it runs out of gas in 2.5 years, I will replace it rather than the difficult and expensive process of proving a manufacturing defect, and will advise everyone to never buy from such a crap company. Also, you completely ignored the fact I got food poisoning. Thanks for that.


Worst regards

Letter to council in Woodley about stupid parking charges.

 Dear Tony Skuse, Andy Croy and Shahid Younis,


Congratulations on changing my shopping habits with the increased parking charges.


I would just like to congratulate you all on changing my shopping habits thanks to the increase in parking charges. In particular the free parking after 6pm and on Sundays being lost have had a major impact on shopping.


I will now drive further to shop somewhere that has free parking. 


Is increasing my carbon output what you were going for, because you got it.


Or was this just a money grab?  There was never a issue with finding a free parking space, so don't give me that lie. 


So why? Money? WEF policy's? Control? or you are just really mean people?



Regards

Ashley

Letter to Matt Rodda about paying the BBC to be able to watch non BBC live TV.

 Dear Matt Rodda,


Just a quick note. I am tired of the idea that I have to pay the lying BBC to be able to watch live TV like the (non BBC) news.


It would be like having to pay Tesco to shop at Asda. 

Or pay a subscription to Virgin to have a Skybox. 

Or paying BT line rental to have a three mobile phone. 

Or paying the Royal mail a fee to use DHL.

Or paying Bentley a fee to buy a Honda.


Anyone can see that its a farcical law and situation. 


Please have it scrapped it for the good of your constituents and the country. 



Yours sincerely,


Ashley Black

Debian 8.10 and fans

This note is mainly for me. Installed Debian 8.10 on an old G5 dual core.  Windfarm was not letting the fans spin up under load and possibly clamping the cpu frequency. After much googling on duckduckgo, with out any good results, I went cowboy and removed all the windfarm*.ko files from the drivers folder, edited the blacklist file in /etc/modprobe.d/ to blacklist all the drivers I found and then ran a update-initramfs -u -k all - which gave errors, but on reboot, no windfarm loaded! Fan were still quiet. Created a load (dnet), and they spun up. Okay, they don't spin down when the load it removed, but I am fine with that. This is going to be in a server room.
