Cornwall Electricals Caution
Edward W. Thompson
processor has withdrawn their support for this online vendor due to
non delivery of puchased items and non response to customers. This
online vendor' seems to be very close to fraudulent practices and in
my opinion is best avoided.

Edward W. Thompson
To elaborate on the story, Cornwall Electricals offered to sell me a
Microwave oven at a very fair price. I paid them using a credit card
and they offered to deliver in one week. First 'problem' was the
invoice they sent me itemised a camera as the purchased item. I
corrected them by telephone but did not receive a revised invoice.
Cornwall Electricals, or their contractor (TransX) charged my credit
card immediately ( sharp practice). A week plus a day ( I think) I
visited Cornwall Electricals web site and noted that 'Due to volume of
orders, goods will dispatched two, weeks after order' (or words to
that effect).
I tried to call Cornwall Electricals but they were not answering. I
emailed with a question about when I was to expect delivery and
received a reply saying they were having 'problems' with their credit
card processor and I would be receiving a refund within 72 hours. I
could pay them with cash to receive the items ordered! Alarm bells
began to ring.
To date I have received no refund and they claim the problem lies with
their contractor Transx and not them! Cornwall Electricals don't seem
to understand the basics that they as the 'prime' have total
responsibility for the transaction including any default by their
contractors.
Just be warned, do not give your business to these people. They may
not be dishonest but my experience suggests they are to be avoided. I
suppose it is the old adage when a deal seems to good to be true it
usually is! Caveat empor

You haven't given a timeline with your story, so I don't know
if you've given other parties reasonable time to resolve issues.
Just call your card company, explain, and ask for a chargeback.
For a non-responding retailer, it can take 60 days. However,
you will probably find that your card company won't charge
interest on that transaction during that period (but do check
this, don't just assume it).

Yes. I have spoken to my card company (MBNA) who told me they
would/could do nothing until 30 days has elapsed from the time of the
default. This is despite the parties (Cornwall Electricals and
TransX) agreeing by email that a refund is appropriate. It seems that
as the matter will come to a head before my next credit card bill is
due, I will not be out of pocket (at least I hope so). I understand
from MBNA they have paid TransX so TransX or someone enjoys the
benefit of an interest free loan! Nice if you can get it!

What Cornwall Electricals seems not to understand is that their
customers agreement is with them not TransX. The responsibility and
liability for reimbursement rests wholly with Cornwall Electricals,
their customers have no agreement with TransX who have been introduced
into the deal by Cornwall Electricals.

I'm not so sure when paying by credit card. There is often a problem over
the time taken for refunds. Of course a decent vendor wouldn't debit the
card until the goods were actually despatched.

My experience in trying to deal with Cornwall Electricals was bad and
I would not do business with that organization again and would advise
others to investigate their options before embarking on a transaction
with Cornwall Electricals.
There are many web based businesses that provide excellent service,
why do business with one that doesn't?

You have obviously never heard the saying "When in a hole
stop digging".
I have never bought anything from Cornwall Electricals, and
after seeing your replies in this group I doubt I ever will.
Many people do a Google groups search for names of online
businesses before trading with them to check if anyone has
had any problems with them, or if they have a bad
reputation.
Google never forgets, and a search for "Cornwall
Electricals" is likely to ring warning bells to a number of
your prospective future customers. You just can't call
unhappy customers "idiots". You also spoke about your
business being close to bankruptcy in another thread - not a
word that instils confidence in potential customers either.

You might care to comment on the observations made in several forums

Your website used to state:
"Cornwall Electricals - Penzance. Founded in 2008, Cornwall Electricals
has many years experience in the Electrical Goods sector"
Now it states "Cornwall Electricals has been established since 2005"
And yet the company was incorporated just this month:
Date of Incorporation: 11/02/2008
How does a business established for just a few weeks qualify as having
"many years experience"?

From his language I'd guess nearer 13 not 17. I think we've

People who have never posted on this group before just seem

wonderful Cornwall Electricals are. Interesting that they

Looking at the "nicholasparc" website and the Cornwall Electricals rants
here, it seems that schools in that area have a lot to answer for. I
also wonder how someone managed to raise the £40,000 he claimed to have
invested. A run down council house doesn't offer much scope to raise
capital.

That in itself is one thing that nobody here is likely to criticise you for.
Clot
I applaud you for starting your own business and wish you good luck. However
common sense and literacy do not seem to be your strong points. Each time
you respond, you are digging an ever deeper hole and putting folk off being
customers!
I think you meant:
"I love reading all your comments. One day, one of you will have the guts to
talk to me. Oh, I can't see any of you on my records as having bought
anything. May I say thank you to you all. I've had a good time reading. One
day, you'll have the guts to start a business yourself. May be we are all
slightly jealous?
A 27 year old man has got the guts to do something in his life and not sit
around signing on or working for some old git who thinks he owns Penzance.
All I can say is you are all missing out on bargains. Not me and the happy
customers. Roll on Cornwall Electricals Ltd."

Anyone who would order from you certainly would find out how good your
service is, in short appaling.
20% off, COD, I certainly don't believe it unless you inflate the
price by an equivalent amount. 20% off at 'net pricing' would mean
you lose significant money.
My experience is you take money when the order is placed. Default on
the contract, then place the onus on the purchaser to get their money
back from whatever credit card processor you happen to be using at the
time.

Store Reviews? Compare and contrast with:

Ouch! I suspect lots of T&C pages get "lifted" but borrowing "reviews"
is a very hooky.

Verging? As far as I can tell every "Store Review" on "Cornwall
Electricals" website is a review taken from the web of other stores.
A couple of examples:
http://www.cornwallelectricals.co.uk/store-review-4-w.asp
"by Mrs I W,
I ordered a Zanussi 16281 washing machine on 28th January. Very
competetive price and it was delivered (to East Lothian) on 5th Feb (the
day of my choice) within the time slot advised. I was particularly
impressed with the young lad and lass who delivered it, they were
extremely courteous and pleasant. 10/10"
http://www.dealtime.co.uk/xMR-30826~MRD-30826~S-1
Coop Electrical Shop: 82 Store Reviews
"by Mrs I W, 06 February 2008
I ordered a Zanussi 16281 washing machine on 28th January. Very
competetive price and it was delivered (to East Lothian) on 5th Feb (the
day of my choice) within the time slot advised. I was particularly

extremely courteous and pleasant. 10/10 for the Co-op."

Edward, Cornwall Electricals are making false representations about
their business. See their "Store Review" page and do a Google search on
any of the "reviews". You will find that each one of them is taken from
another website.
This is misrepresetation and Trading Standards take this seriously, but
only if the complainant is a custoemr who has been defrauded by the
misrepresentation. That seems to mean you. Cornwall TS state that you
must complain to TS in your own county first then they will pick up the
complaint from there.
Steve Firth
How strange, because Cornwall TS don't seem to agree with you. They find
quite a bit wrong with your website.

You really are a sad wanker. Google has nothing to do with policing the
usenet postings and as for your hookey website, well, I certainly
wouldn't buy a Duracell from you never mind a household appliance.

I know this is an old thread but I've only just come across it. I was
mentioned in the thread quite early on and thought it relevant to update
and close the thread.
I'm Mr Barnes the owner of the website Nicholasparc.co.uk and what I wrote
about Parc Mellon still stands today, albeit a far better place now that
it ever was. But my actual reason for posting is to inform you all that
Cornwall Electrical was indeed trading from a flat and has been closed
down many years ago. Scott continued to defraud customers and was later
charged and prosecuted for fraud by Ebay. He was later charged and
prosecuted for stealing £700 from a church and I believe other offenses
were taken in to account.
Undeterred by all of this he now operates a carpet cleaning business.
