Returning an item to Argos when they dont have it anymore

    I bought a tv from Argos last year, and got their 3-year cover on it.
    It seems to have stopped working now though.

    I checked their catalogue and they dont have the same model anymore. So if i go and return it, will they give me a different type, or just store credit?

    My mate got a dvd recorder once, it broke after ~10 months, by that time a newer better model was out of the same brand, but as they were so new when he got it the newer model was also cheaper. They gave him the new better model (old one not in stock like yours) and gave him the difference in price in tokens! think it was €30

    This is why I continue to go to argos, just for their returns policy.

    sometimes they give the money back if it now discontinued, depends who you deal with in there

    In my experience Argos are the best retailer for returns, no quibbles if everything is in order. As above poster said you will get the newer or equivalent model.

    You wasted your money buying a 3 year guaruntee as it is already their in law. (not including putting the boot through the thing).
