Even by our supreme unlucky standards, we've had an excessive run of bad luck at Carrefour. Indeed I believe it would be safe to say that every visit has been doomed in some way or another.
Here is our list of doom and gloom.
Toaster worked twice then gave up the ghost.
Coffee grinder which works intermittently.
Paella pan worked for 3 weeks.
T Shirt in sealed pack different size to that stated.
Gas heater - oh yes, 90€'s worth - kaput after one gas bottle
and to top it all - Samsung speakers bought this week sealed was found to be an empty box when we got it home!!!!!!!!!
This isn't necessarily any worse than anywhere else - (as I have alluded to at best we get grimaced at by Lady Luck) and indeed we became on first name terms with the manager of B&Q Penrith after a run of problematic purchases and most family and friends coming to visit us would break their trip at the store to pick up missing pieces; it is still frustrating. We've not yet tried customer service - however it is getting beyond a joke now (let's hope our customer service experience also has no resemblance to a joke).
Annoyingly we were in Seville last week and I made a joke about getting the speakers in Zafra Carrefour so it was 'closer when they went wrong'.
I hate being right.
