Although a regular reader of this place I have only just joined these forums with the hope of getting a little help from you guys & gals.
I seem to be having what is turning out to be a big problem with www.globalpositioningsystem.co.uk
To cut a long story short, I bought a SD gps receiver for my pda from them, and it went faulty. I RMA'd the gps and they sent me a new one. A couple of months later it went faulty again (different faults tho). I got an RMA after an initially negative response from them, and so sent them my gps. I was instantly emailed to say the unit is now discontinued and to contact them for an alternative product, which I did straight away.
And that is where I'm stuck!
I've had no reply from them since, even tho I've included my telephone numbers for easy contact.
After more than a week of no contact, I emailed them again just in case they did not get the last email. At the same time ( just to be sure ) I contacted them thru their website contact pages. AND with the hope of a glimmer of light I emailed Catherine Hinchcliffe, as she seemed very good helping others who had problems with www.globalpositioningsystems.co.uk.
STILL NO REPLY
So they have had my faulty gps for two weeks now and I dont know where to go from here
I spent over £100 on this gps and now have no goods, just the silent treatment.
I have bought other things from them in the past with no problems, but that would seem to be the case...They are very willing to provide a telephone number to take your money, but no telephone number if you want any sort of support!
Oh well.

Happy Ending :D
I received a replacement gps receiver in the post this morning which is working wonderfully with my pda.
I would like to thank Catherine for all her help with this, she sorted the whole thing out very painlessly, while always staying in contact with me.
Thank You

Hello All
I am new here, I found this site earlier today but before I looked at the forums I looked at the adverts as I was looking for my first PDA with sat Nav so I clicked on the globalpositioningsystems.co.uk web site and I looked around and purchased from them.
I have now looked on these forums and have read your comments,
ARE THEY REALLY BAD?
HELP |
