Either they are re-grouping and trying to sort out their delivery problems
(which I've never had a problem with) or are just about to go belly up.

I reckon the latter.


I hope not - they owe me nearly £200 in returns.

Last week I ordered a sink tap (Pegler Iconic), which arrived this week,
and leaked like a very leaky thing when I installed it. Ordered a
replacement (different Pegler), which arrived today, and was also faulty.


Paid by credit card?

Not a problem if so.

I wouldn't guantee it. I recently only got a credit card refund from
Lloyds TSB after a company went bankrupt by taking LTSB to the
Financial Ombudsman. Whilst the law states that you are covered if
purchased by credit card, the card company can still stick 2 fingers
up.


It does seem to depend on the card issuer and on the relationship you
have with your bank manager.

I had an issue like this (wasn't Lloyds) and the bank manager leaned
on them, pointing out that it was better to write off £200 than to
lose £50k per annum of business through the card account.
