Registered 20 years agoI've never returned anything because I didn't want it but when they sent the wrong thing then they were very speedy and nice about returning it and sending the correct DVD. -

Registered 20 years agoWell that sounds worth the hassle of returning something and having to pay postage on top of paying more for buying from HMV!

As for returning to play, just don't open the dvd, tape a bit of paper with their returns address over the original packaging label, slap a stamp on and post it back. Nice and easy. Done it quite a few times. -

Registered 17 years agoMy expeirances with Play are pretty good.
I got Rome Total War off them and it turned out to be a pirated copy about two to three months later.
It looked genuine had all the right packaging just wouldn't patch.
I rang up, told them and didn't have my reciept.
They still exchanged it though. -
I ordered an Action replay cheat cartridge at the beginning of August.......still waiting for it to be delivered.... -

Registered 18 years agoGiven up waiting for my order for Batman Begins to arrive. Apparently it was shipped last Wednesday. If I go out an pick up a copy from HMV at lunch time and I keep the other one sealed when it arrives, what are Play like about taking things back? I know I've got the 14 day thing anyway, just wondering if its all plain sailing? -

Registered 18 years agoWell if I'm picking it up from HMV I'll get their exclusive superdooper one (I'm a sucker for that stuff) so I cant take the Play one back. -

Registered 18 years agoPartly because I'm a bit annoyed my order went straight to processing and sat there for 3 days, thus meaning I couldnt cancel the order when I realised there was a Ltd Ed. available, and partly because I'm a bit annoyed that they couldnt get me a major new release on its release date.

Just for closure, they've agreed to take it back with a full refund. See HMV? Thats customer service.
