It must be only TB.....
« on: 08 September 2018, 19:00:42 »
I've just complained to ECP about an incorrect air filter delivered last June (I know, I just didn't get round to fitting it!), thinking that they would ignore me as it was that long ago, and a lady cdalled Rebecca responded immediately, asking for details of purchase.
I sent the PayPal details, and she aploogised for the error, and promised a replacement as soon as possible.
I had a text message from DHL this morning saying that they will deliver on Monday!
Sorry TB, it must be you?   ;)

I've found ECP fine if there are no problems. :y

If there is a problem of any description they are worse than useless. :-\

Most people miss the self flagellation tickbox when making their purchases on the internet.  :)

TB never does!  ;D

At least euroshite do have people you can talk to. Sister company CP4L don't.

My issue with euroshite is I'm convinced they seem to have a dodgy supply chain, and not everything is as genuine as its supposed to be.  This seems to have been a lot better since they were taken over though.  Though the Triple QX screenwash is still utter shite...  ...that bad that it went down the drains, and if ever I was given triple qx oil, I wouldn't even put it in the lawnmower.

I know you hate their screenwash, but why do you think their oil is of poor quality - surely it must meet the appropriate specifications?

Well, every time I visit the local branch they ask me if I would like to sell them large quantities of old cooking oil.  :-\   ;D

The Triple QX screenwash claimed not to freeze (neat) until -20C or something like that.  It certainly wasn't that cold last winter.  So why should I believe the label on the oil?

because the temperature will definitely have to drop below -20C for oil to freeze?

I never had a problem, I've got one just down the road so it's super, super easy to get things. Had a couple of wrong parts, but they've swapped it without issue.  :y

No problems for me with QX screen wash, goes in both the bus and the 3.2, normally at least 30% mixture. Does good job, I up it 50% in the winter, 75% with last super cold spell, never frozen.

The screenwash they supplied me was clearly just coloured water, as it didn't go much below freezing last winter, but it still froze. Neat.

Maybe I should have put it into long condoms, and sold them as ice pops :D

Went back to Halfords stuff, about 50p more than the Triple QX stuff, but it works.  And you get more sense from the knuckledraggers in Halfords...
