i have never experienced customer service like london customer service...

i remember one time i wanted to buy a blackberry and i waited forever for someone to serve me at this big electronics store...i had to hassle this dude out to get some attention...i said 'hey i need to talk to someone about blackberries...can you give me some advice?' (i knew nothing about blackberries and still don't)

'No i can't help you, thats not anybody's job. u just have to work out what you want on your own then bring it to the counter'

I nearly dropped dead. While I was reduced to shocked silence, my friend took my arm and stormed us both right out the door.

Kind of a blessing in disguise though - my life really wasn't complex enough to justify having a blackberry phone - i redirected my finances to more important things (fashion accessories) & got on with my life.
