My f'ing pram broke yesterday after just 2 weeks use!!!

There I was at quickfit after booking my car in to have the tracking done, went to get the pram out of the boot and put it up and it wouldnt click into place... Well that was it. After several attempts and lots of swearing at the damned thing I put it back in the car told quickfit i'd be back later and drove to the nearest car park to mother care... which is like a 5-10 minute walk away.

I then had to march down to Mothercare with Olivia in her car seat in one arm and a great bloody heavy pram in the other and boy was at getting cross with the people giving me funny looks... and even like this did an EDF engergy sales rep try to stop me... Well he got a mouth full and all!!

When I got to mother care they asked if I had the receipt... The f'in receipt i didnt expect the thing to be broken I told them... Then they gave me a big lecture about keeping the receipt... I have kept it... But I dont keep it on me at all times!!!

I then had a great hissy fit at them and the manager who then deceided that yes they could look on their computer records after first of all saying they wouldnt.

So with all the commotion I then burst into tears in the store as my arm was aching... my tummy started to feel tight and sore again after carrying so heavy bloody things through the pedestrianised town centre and eventually she swopped the pram for a brand new one for me BUT had the cheek to then show me how to fold it up & down... WHAT DO THEY THINK IVE DONE FOR THE LAST 2 WEEKS LIKE!!!

Sorry for the rant but had to get it off my chest.

i got stopped in mamas and papas a few weeks ago pushing my little sister round, i thought id been suspected of robbing the way the girl dived in front of the pram... to kindly tell me how id had the straps fitted in the pram wrong, lol. mothercare always seem to have really stuck up people working there ud think they get training on how to be as snotty as possible. and concidering they see pregnant women shopping every day they stare at ur bump as if they think its false and ur stuffing baby clothes up ur top lol xxx

Whats really strange is ive been looking to buy a Quinny Zapp online but we went to Toys R Us on Tuesday night and they had £20 off the bright pink one... We had a £30 babies r us voucher so I said to Chris we may as well use the voucher on the Zapp so in total we save £50 and then if it was to break we can just bring it back to the shop...

So Ironic the next day my pram broke!!!

Iwantone!!!

did u pay by cash or card hunni if that is the case thats is as good as the reciept i would ring mothercare office and tel them what u have done today and how rude the lady was and u want to know what they are going to do goodluck

I'm sorry for your bad luck hun, wow some shops need to have a word with their staff, I'm lucky with the staff at our mothercare, they have been fantastic, I guess it helps that I know the manager tho lol

eugh.... that would happen to me that im a disaster area anything that can, will break when im around lol.

the mothercare by mine is crap, little snooty snot bags workin there, I was browsing and getting a rough idea on how much things are gonna be lookin round and this pip squeek jumps from behind a shelf of breast and maternity pants and says "can i help you, ive noticed you've been wondering around" I was fumin i thought on one hand maybe she was trying to be helpfull then i scrapped that idea when her smug little bean face was still looking at me. "just lookin thanks" i replied and she looked me up and down and sauntered off i was livid!!! there is no sign in the window to say only come in if your buying dont come looking. mothercare is sh*te its an expensive hole you can get prams etc cheaper on the internet anyway.
