Question asked by me via Twitter @ArgosHelpers:

 

283/6540 "features many dazzling diamonds". How many diamonds other than the "stunning diamond at 12 o'clock"

Reply from @Argos HelpersLuke:

 

OK, so on the same lines; would you expect us to describe a Christmas tree as sticks of PVC attached to a metal pole?

 

It's just the name of a product. If we were pedantic about every item we sell, we'd never be able to describe anything in less than 5 words and it'd be extremely difficult to narrow down a search when finding specific products. Luke

Merry Christmas to you too Luke. Edited December 18, 2013 by fade2gray.uk

I'd report him. even though he's being human, a company representative should never act like that.

 

Btw, luke was wrong. The advert clearly states "many diamonds" and not just a single one.

Was just 'sharing' my experience, but I have already notified Argos - they emailed back asking for my Twitter name and the date/time the conversation took place.

I've also pointed out that they advertise some of their watches as 'sliver' but don't clearly state anywhere as being just 'silver coloured' in the detailed description as in other adverts on their site. The response was "It's just your (my) perception".

quick question that reply is about 225 charictars longer than twitter allows for standered messages??

[renegadeimp]

Isnt the messaging limit longer if they send a direct message?

 

edit: its still 140 chars, but twitter now auto splits the message if its longer than the limit.
