Yep, the old BAS is back in full form.

But no, wait, what's this, BAS writes "I might be wrong". Alert the news services, there seems to have been a seismic shift

Back on full form?

I never lost the ability to notice when some fool thinks he can "quote" this:

I'm pretty sure that responsibility does not extend to including consequential losses.

and say

You did not mention SOGA in that statement

When what I originally wrote looked like this:

.. a fault on the washer that in law is the responsibility of the retailer under SOGA.

I'm pretty sure that responsibility does not extend to including consequential losses.

Back on full form?

Even on an off day I'm always going to be brighter than you.

When you buy goods from a trader you enter into a contract which is controlled by many laws including the Sale of Goods Act 1979. The law gives you certain - sometimes referred to as statutory - rights under this contract.

DAMAGES
You are entitled to claim damages from the trader to cover your losses if they were caused as a direct result of the goods being faulty . This is called consequential loss. For example, if your washing machine developed a fault and clothing was torn, you could claim for the cost of the clothing as well as seeking repair, replacement, full or partial refund from the trader.
