Another response from the manufacturer regarding the charger they say I should buy off their website: "If you buy it on our website the guarantee for the charger or the battery is 3 months."
-
Thanks for the (as usual) sensible reply & info. I have written to them again and await a response.

I'm not with Free but can't see what anyone would gain from an email like that?

Better be nice to people on here in future Théière

That is basically what happened. I did it via email and Lidl sent me this reply: "Nous vous remercions pour votre demande et de l'intérêt que vous portez à nos produits. Etant donné que nous ne sommes pas en possession des pièces détachées et des accessoires, nous vous prions de bien vouloir vous adresser au fabricant de l'article qui prendra en compte votre demande."Which translates to "Since we are not in possession of parts and accessories, please kindly contact the manufacturer of the article who will consider your request."

You obviously miss the point Théière - a guarantee is a guarantee or is your post just a wind up as you have done in the past?I have received another reply from them stating "You purchased your product on August 2013 and have used it. Therefore it’s not a material defect."

I've never had a problem with tools purchased from Lidl, until this week.A florabest battery hedge trimmer I bought a year ago (3yr guarantee) failed to charge so I took it back to the shop I bought it from. A member of staff referred me to a sign I had not noticed before saying you can only return items to the shop within one month. Ok I can understand that, they do not keep replacements. I rang Lidl office (the no. listed for help/suggestions on above mentioned sign) to be told they do not keep spares and I must contact the manufacturers. On contacting the manufacturer via email I was told the battery charger is not guaranteed and I can purchase a new one from their site at a cost of 15€ + postage! No other explanation given.Needless to say I am not amused. The fight continues!

Loads of software out there that will do it for you. I use Audacity:http://manual.audacityteam.org/o/man/splitting_a_recording_into_separate_tracks.htmlBut there are many more, such as:http://www.nch.com.au/wavepad/kb/975.htmlhttp://www.mptrim.com/http://www.nch.com.au/splitter/

Strange that we hear so much on the net and news about the eBay hack but not about the fact that Orange have been hacked twice in the last 3 months, involving a couple of million customer details. Have Orange France customers received notice to change passwords etc?

Must admit I have not tried downloading until now and it does not work. If you press "pause" then "resume" I get a message "Temporary error". I suspect your VPN only works with the browser. iPlayer downloads is a completely separate program that accesses the net through your own ISP and is therefore blocked because you are not in the UK. I may be wrong. Maybe someone more knowledgeable will come along.

Try Media Hint, works well for me using Firefox and it doesn't use any of your bandwidth. https://mediahint.com/

OK, didn't see that!

Earlier I posted a link to Skype which I use to phone landlines and mobiles in the UK, very cheap either on contract or payg. My link seems to have been removed for some reason!

Yet another parcel down the black hole at ROISSY. Sent from the UK and arrived Paris on 6th May. Doing a Google search reveals huge numbers of complaints about the atrocious service and it seems there is nothing you can do about it.This site seems to be reserved for complaints which are never answered.

Could that be because they are classics? Of course that is the reason they are free to download (out of copyright)..

Blimey, makes you think twice about going there!

[quote user="woolybanana"]Somehow, my addlepated brain supposed that the enquiry was about France.[/quote]Since the post is on France Forum and in the section "French Legal Issues" one would be right to assume it related to France. Why would anyone assume it related to the UK?

I agree with that. We were forever having problems with meter readings/estimations. Since we do our own now we always know the bill will be right. Here is the sign up site:https://particuliers.edf.com/gestion-de-mon-contrat/mon-compte/mon-espace-client-82832.html

Got a response from EDF today. They said they had tried to phone me but didn't get a response, strange there was nothing on our answer-phone!. The crux of the letter is as follows:EDF est missionnee par l'Etat pour collecter CSPE......Je ne peux donc pas répondre favorablement a votre demande .......... vous informer que vous avez la possibilite d'adresser votre reclamation directement a la CRE ou au Ministere de l'EnergieAs you say Chancer - pass the buck!

[quote user="AnOther"]Although it's usually included by default it's actually an optional extra so just tell them you don't want it ![/quote]Well I didn't know that. I'll have to see how much that costs and decide if it's worth it for recovery within 50km of home. I suspect I will still have to keep that option.
