After vacuuming the house yesterday, with my G.Tech, which is the first one they produced and I have had it about 12 years. I noticed that the filters weren't fitting into their holder anymore.
I rang GTECH and the man said. 2 new filters and the tray, £14.99 incl vat + postage £3.99. He said your machine is white, these will be grey, as that was the colour of the next model. I didn't care.
Went to put in my card number (he was working from home, so it was a secure way). Put in the wrong number and then cut myself off. Rang again, got a lady, went through it all again, ok £30.97. I said, I prefer your colleague, and she laughed, and explained that he was charging just for the filters.
Whether or however the mistake, I thought that is one of the quickest price rises I have ever known.
Personally, I think it is Growsters fault. Yes you, you started the electrical, broken vacuum thread.
You are awful, but I like you. ( flutters eyelashes, as in Dick Emery) Mrs Bouquet
