    Have just bought a laptop from Currys and just found out that the battery cannot be removed.
    Can I return the laptop and get another one with a removable battery.


    Thanks.:)

    If you bought online, yes.

    If you bought instore, no. - Unless they do it out of goodwill

    Does the spec say removable battery?
    from a legal perspective unless they stated the battery was removable then no they do not have to take it back. If they do then happy days. Just be polite and honest :)

    If it was bought online you can return it for a refund within 14 days for any reason and buy whatever you like.

    If not this post applies.

    if in a shop unless you asked was it removable then you are relying on goodwill
