Without going into the issue, one would have to wonder at the quality of 
the leagal advice HN was getting.  If they had got experienced and 
comptent advice at the beginning this might not have even gone a week.

Why did you not report it to the Consumers Claim Tribunal straight away? 
 It is specifically set up to deal with these sorts of baby consumenr 
issues.

If you had done that you would have saved yourself a lot a stress and 
aggro.
