You can't do it when you B+Q it.

Post by IainD »

Looking for a replacement ding-dong chime for the house as the old one is past it.

Found the perfect thing on B+Q's website. Cheap as chips, good reviews on Screwfix where it is more expensive.....

Can anyone spot the problem?

A spokes person for Screwfix said, " when we haven't got any , ours are cheaper than B&Q"

Got a reply from B&Q, much as expected, no sense of humour :whistle:

Good Afternoon Iain,

Thank you for your email dated 19th October 2015 in regards to the replacement door chime.

I have checked the product availability and can see that the product has now been discontinued and no longer stocked by B&Q. I have checked all stores within your area and no store has any stock.

I apologise for any inconvenient caused.

Thank you for contacting B&Q.

Kind regards,

I would always try Toolstation before B&Q as they are nearly always considerably cheaper.Great ad for B&Q though !
