Ripspeed DV720 DVD unit not Working?
Got this last christmas and its only had about 2/3 months use. Just stopped working one day...Tried putting a battery across it and no power at all. Checked the fuses on the wiring and they are okay. Anybody know what else to check as dont have a reciept to take it back now, and its still like new...
Can you take units to a shop to be repaired? If so, what sort of money am I looking at!?
Cheers!

Shouldn't need a receipt, does the pesrson who bought it for you still have the same card? They can track it back through that. Also on halfords supply Ripspeed stereo's so shouldn't be to much ball ache

Remember that the guarantee is in addition to your statutory rights, which last for up to six years. Further to that: as you dont have to be given a receipt, they cant demand that a receipt be provided when you take this up with them.

RIGHT
Where do i start
I bought a cd player from halfords for £200 in March - It just died on me.
I went into the store an they said they needed a receipt which i lost so i got a credit card receipt which they said " nope we need the proper receipt".
I phoned Customer services an they said the same. The lad i sold the car to i gave him the recipt my mistake so i got it back an went back to halfords an asked for a replacement.
They said " no its after 28 days so we HAVE to send ti away for repair". Which will take 7-14 days.
I checked my statutory rights online which said i was entitled to a replacement or money back if the repair caused me annoyance in the time it would take (cant mind the word lol)
I then phoned headoffice an complained about this an they stuck to their guns saying they HAVE to repair it and wont replace it after 28days
So i just gave in an gave them it. 5 weeks on still no repair. Then i phone headoffice an complain. They call the store to which they call me an advise they "lost" my cd player.
I then get quite annoyed BUT the store gave me store credit for another CD player. There was none the same price an i asid i would NTO pay any extra they said pick any an they will pay the difference if its not major. I picked one for £230 so they paid an extra £35.
So all in all done let them mess you about. I did

what are you doing buying a ripspeed brand anyway, ya just know it's gonna be cr4p, just look at the halfrauds website at how many of their things are refurbished, wouldnt touch em with a barge pole, hope you get it sorted though.
