The days of retaillers/installers doing that are long gone. I definately don't register warranties for my clients...that's their choice and responsibility. Might even be a data protection issue as well.

I don't put that on the user or the fitter
You shouldn't have to register anything, if a product you bought has a 5 year warranty a receipt should be enough. Manufacturers hoping people forget so they don't have to pay out.

Agreed. It's a nonsense at best and a con trick at worst.
Imagine if people had to register their new car with Ford or whoever?

It is standard practice. Most manufacturers that offer a longer warranty than a standard 12month warranty require the guarantee to be validated. It is to stop any fraudulent claims unfortunately. I recently bought a new range cooker and once the fitter had fitted it, he reminded me to validate the warranty as if i didnt and anything happened to the appliance they would only offer the standard 12month warranty with dated proof of purchase.
I know the cynics amongst us will automatically think differently but thats the reason.

When has a rebranding actually worked ?
Do people say SSShkoda (Skoda)
or Heun day (Hyundai)
or ekia (Ikea)
No they dont, I guess the English will still call it the Brecon Beacons and the welsh will call it by its new name
Its still the same hills, so dont not go there

.The Welsh can use the Welsh term for towns and locations if they wish, it's their country, their language. Why stress about it?
I think it will be a negative for their tourism but that is a personal opinion based on no evidence. I think it will confuse people but that is up to them.

On closer look, there’s a couple of recent joiners that seem to have very similar grammatical fingerprints…
Overuse of the humble exclamation mark and the just odd use of the inverted comma.
