Why did Apple call it a Genius Bar. Pretty much setting their mediocre and worse staff up to fail…read more Took in a phone for a simple battery replacement and they broke the phone beyond repair. They did replace it but wiped my old phone before I could set up the new one so I was stuck without a phone until I could get home. They gave me lots of incorrect information and I would never trust them with anything again. There's also a bit of an attitude problem with some of the staff because they work for Apple or something. Go there to touch the shiny new devices if you're thinking of buying one but be wary if requiring any assistance or technical expertise.
Great place to try before you buy apple productsread more

This Christmas, DO NOT buy in-store at GAME. Any protection you assume you have for returning…read moreincorrect or unwanted consoles or games, your wrong as you will only receive store credit as a refund! Instead go to Curry's, Argos or Asda in-store who all sell at the same price but instead, offer the basic returns rights you would expect at any other reputable company of this size in this day and age. Couple of weeks ago, I decided to buy a new Xbox console plus some games as a gift. I chose to drive past Curry's, Argos and Asda, wrongfully choosing Game to be the best place to buy a games console, expecting unrivalled customer service being the specialists. I also worked for Game many years ago myself. Purchased the console in-store at Berryden Industrial Estate, Aberdeen, but unfortunately my gift was unwanted. Having never even taken it out the carrier bag, I expected nothing other than a run of the mill return for full refund. Instead I was informed I could only get store credit back (nearly £500). The Manager Craig, couldn't have been less sympathetic, repeatedly shrugging his shoulders telling me its a recent policy change and 'it is what it is'. I asked him why it wasn't made absolutely clear to me when spending a large amount of money (for me) that the goods were non-refundable other than store credit, and his response was that he and his staff simply dont have to inform customers and it's not normally as issue because people don't normally return consoles. Craig pointed out it was made clear on the receipt which it absolutely was, but that's not much use to anyone after the point of sale. He also added there was clear information on display explaining their policies under the counter. I had to take a step back and crouch down to read a poster not in plain view but instead, roughly floor level to just above my knees (I'm 6ft1). I asked him why this wasn't pointed out or even better, on top of the counter where customers can see it before they make their transactions but he didn't have a response. I found Games' returns policy is completely different for online orders despite being the same business, offering a 28 day no fuss returns, as you would expect. Manager Craig's response was his familiar shoulder shrug. Furious with the situation, I can't get my head around how a business gets away with this. I will never use Game again and hope others will read this before they make the same mistake in the lead up to Christmas.

They have a good range of new games, and they also sell pre-owned games which means you can also trade in your old games for store credit or cash. You can also pre-order new games coming into the store, and also consoles. They are not always the cheapest place to buy games, it pays to shop around as you may get a better deal elsewhere, they do have a store card though, which means you can get ponts for things you buy which you can claim in money off vouchers. They staff are friendly and you normally get asked if you need any help when you go into the store.

They also sell other gifts such as ornaments, jewelery, keyrings and stationery. At the rear of the shop is a cafe which is great for lunches. It serves Costa coffee, cakes, salads, paninis and sandwiches. It has a couple of play tables to entertain the kids. All in all a nice shop.

The shop itself is usually very crowded so it is hard to move around with limited space but i do find the staff are extremely helpful compared with other shops. Then again, these days it isn't hard! It has a wide range of phones, both pay as you go and contract so it's definately worth a visit.

The shop assistants determine wether you are good enough to serve and have frequently been totally ignored by the shop staff whilest they continue their private chats but when you do get someone who deems you worthy they do provide a good service. For that reason I have decided to stop shopping there altogether

From anything from home such as electronics, beds, carpets, furniture... To beauty, clothes and toys, fabrics and little presents. I'm not sure if it's the best place to dress for woman up to 35/40 years old.. But the home stuff is just lovely to watch for any age group! The only downside I have notice with some products, the quality went a bit down for the price it costs. You would expect a table for almost £1000 to be at least stable and from a good solid material.. Otherwise, I still love going there time to time even just to have a look and their catalogs are full of inspiration :) Regarding the staff, they are always helpful, polite and not pushy - and that's one of the reasons why I prefer to go there rather than other department stores where you can meet unnecessarily too many employees trying to engage conversation with you. I prefer my own time and when I need somebody I will ask and there is always somebody in sight

Costco sell electrical goods such as tvs, cd players and things such toys, clothes, video games, alcohol, flowers, all different kinds of foods and lots more! When it comes to the food and drink, they either usually sell things in bulk packets, or in larger sized bottles/cans etc, and everything is cheaper here than in other shops. They also have an opticians section, though I have never used it before. There is also a little cafe area serving tea, coffee, pizza and cake at very cheap prices. A great place to stock up on things!
Fantastic place!…read more Be aware that there is a membership charge, I think currently £28 a year, you get two cards for this price. However it is worth every penny for this. They are a huge warehouse, they stock a large variety of products, mainly very good quality. The products are not the cheap stuff you usually find in a cash and carry type place. They have amazing jewellery (for the same price as a flat!), their electrical department offers excellent prices. There are always good deals in their quarterly deals 'passport', however, you will need lots of space in your house for all the toilet paper and chopped tomatoes! Service is good and relaxed. The cafe area is great on the way out, baked potato and chilli etc for £1.25, cup of tea for 25p etc. I can't say enough about how great this place is!
