Major high street retailers duping shoppers with ‘misleading discounts' on pricey TVs, Which? warns

SHOPPERS looking for a new television may want to think twice before trusting the discounts advertised by some of the UK's biggest retailers. An investigation by consumer champion Which? has revealed questionable pricing practices at Currys, Very, and other major sellers, potentially misleading customers into believing they are getting better deals than they actually are. 1 Which? analysed over 1,600 television deals across five retailers. More than half (56%) of the "was" prices used in promotions were not the most recent prices charged before the discount. Which? said this tactic can create the illusion of massive savings when, in reality, the higher price may not have been charged for months – or was only briefly in place. Plus, four in 10 TVs (40%) had a "was" price that was only in effect for less time than the discounted price. And a third of all the TVs reviewed (33%) were doubly misleading, with both intervening prices and promotional periods longer than the higher "was" price. Which? said the findings are concerning because UK consumer protection guidance states that a "was" price must represent the genuine price immediately prior to the discount. Retailers that dodge these rules risk enforcement action from authorities such as the Competition and Markets Authority (CMA). Lisa Webb, Which? consumer law expert, said: "Shoppers deserve clear, honest pricing - not smoke and mirrors. "If retailers are using dodgy was/now discounts to create the illusion of a bargain then we expect the competition regulator to take enforcement action. 'Anyone in the market for a new TV or any other expensive purchase should take any such discounts with a pinch of salt and check price tracking sites like CamelCamelCamel or Price Runner to ensure they are getting a genuine deal before making a decision." Shopping discounts - How to make savings and find the best bargains Which retailers were the worst offenders? Very emerged as the worst offender in the Which? investigation. Of the 399 TV deals reviewed, nearly nine in 10 (87%) used "was" prices that were not the most recent, and over half (53%) had higher prices that were in place for less time than the promotional price. For example, the LG OLED65B46LA 65-inch TV was advertised with a "was" price of £2,499 and a "now" price of £1,499. However, the £2,499 price hadn't been charged for five months and had been replaced by seven lower price points during that time. Currys also came under fire, with three-quarters (75%) of its 608 TV deals featuring outdated "was" prices. Plus, it had the highest rate (68%) of TVs where the higher price applied for a shorter time than the discounted price. An example includes the LG UT73 50-inch TV, which had a "was" price of £399.99 and a "now" price of £299.99. The higher price had only been in place for 25 days, compared to 207 days at the lower price. What about other retailers? While AO was also found to use intervening prices in a third (33%) of its deals, it provides transparency by publishing the dates of its "was" prices and acknowledging that lower prices may have applied. This makes AO's deals less likely to mislead shoppers, Which? said. Argos performed the best, with nearly all of its "was" prices reflecting the price immediately before the promotion, offering customers a more accurate picture of potential savings. Amazon's pricing practices were also reviewed, but the retailer uses a different approach. Its "was" prices reflect the median price paid by customers over the past 90 days, excluding promotional offers. While this is a distinct method, Which? has concerns that it could still confuse shoppers and make discounts appear larger than they are. Which? also revealed earlier this week that Sports Direct shoppers are being misled by deceptive pricing tactics, creating the illusion of bargain deals. How to compare prices to get the best deal JUST because something is on offer, or is part of a sale, it doesn't mean it's always a good deal. There are plenty of comparison websites out there that'll check prices for you - so don't be left paying more than you have to. Most of them work by comparing the prices across hundreds of retailers. Here are some that we recommend: Google Shopping is a tool that lets users search for and compare prices for products across the web. Simply type in keywords, or a product number, to bring up search results. Price Spy logs the history of how much something costs from over 3,000 different retailers, including Argos, Amazon, eBay and the supermarkets. Once you select an individual product you can quickly compare which stores have the best price and which have it in stock. Idealo is another website that lets you compare prices between retailers. All shoppers need to do is search for the item they need and the website will rank them from the cheapest to the most expensive one. CamelCamelCamel only works on goods being sold on Amazon. To use it, type in the URL of the product you want to check the price of.

Thugs throw missiles on FOURTH night of violence as families forced to hide in attics in riots which injured 41 cops

RIOTERS have lobbed bottles and petrol bombs at cops with blazes springing up in Northern Ireland as a fourth night of carnage erupts. Police barricades are blocking roads amid another night of disorder - as families are left hiding in wardrobes and attics in fear of the violence. 7 7 7 So far, stones and bottles have been thrown and bins set on fire after being dragged into the streets of Portadown - which is an hour away from where the riots began on Monday. A police spokesperson warned they "will not tolerate a repeat of the scenes" seen over the last few nights. PSNI chief constable Jon Boutcher described the rioting as " wanton, disgraceful criminal behaviour that is absolutely race motivated". He said: "I want to send a very clear message to all our diverse communities: we stand absolutely shoulder to shoulder with you. We are here to protect you. 'We are your police service, and these bigots and racists will not win the day." Cops earlier decried the mass carnage as "racist thuggery". They've called in reinforcements to keep the peace, with 80 extra officers from Scotland coming over. Violence originally erupted in Ballymena on Monday, stemming from an initially peaceful gathering to support a girl and her family after an alleged sexual assault. Two 14-year-old boys appeared in court charged with attempted rape on Monday. A third man, 28, was also arrested over the alleged sexual assault. The boys confirmed their names - which cannot be reported - and their ages through a Romanian interpreter at Coleraine Magistrates' Court. But within hours of their court appearance, disorder broke out in Co Antrim. Northern Ireland's Chief Constable said that the girl's family are "mortified" at the rioting. "Let's stop it now, Everybody wants it to stop" he said. "I reiterate the retraumatising of this poor girl, she's been through enough through what happened to her on Saturday evening. She doesn't want any of this. "I know the family are mortified. I've spoken to them personally, they've asked me to make this plea. Why the two 14-year-old boys charged with attempted rape can't be named The two teenagers charged with attempted rape appeared at Coleraine Magistrates' Court on Monday. The defendants cannot be named due to their ages. Article 22(2) of the 1998 Order restricts press and media reporting of proceedings in youth courts. It states that, where a child is concerned in any criminal proceedings in a youth court or on appeal from a youth court, no report revealing the name, address or school of any child, including anything likely to lead to the identification of the child, shall be published. Press and media are also restricted from publishing a picture of any child concerned, except where the court or the Department of Justice, if satisfied that it is in the interests of justice to do so, makes an order dispensing with these prohibitions. 7 "So for all of you listening, for people who have any sort of responsibility or charge over people who have been doing this awful disorder, get them to desist, stop it. "It's not helping anyone. It's certainly not helping your community." Families in the town of Ballymena, Co Antrim have been forced to flee their homes as the riots continue. Residents in Portadown, County Armagh, were warned tonight that demonstrations are being "directed towards migrants, foreign nationals, and what (is) perceived as deviant behaviour". A letter urged locals to secure their property and belongings, and to stay elsewhere if possible. Earlier in the week, crowds set fire to piles of furniture in the middle of the streets, homes were set alight, and multiple cars went up in flames. Footage showed masked and hooded rioters lobbing petrol bombs, fireworks and bricks at cops trying to calm the unrest on Tuesday. Officers fired baton rounds and water cannon in a desperate bid to keep the mobs at bay. Yesterday, a leisure centre in Larne came under attack after it emerged some foreign families escaping the chaos were being temporarily housed there. In total, 41 officers have been injured in the chaos - with the force even describing a hatchet being chucked at them. Many residents have placed posters in their windows identifying themselves as British to avoid being targeted. Union Jack flags were also prominently displayed. A hand-written note in one window read: "British residents." The PSNI said: "At this time, all incidents are being treated as racially-motivated hate crimes. "We absolutely condemn these disgraceful attacks on our minority ethnic friends and neighbours. "Those responsible are endangering not only the lives of those inside the properties, but putting themselves at risk of injury." Earlier today, three teenagers appeared in court charged with rioting offences. There have been 15 arrests in total. 7 7 7

Moment 'killer' attacks police officers with samurai sword as they try to arrest him after schoolboy was slashed to death in street

This is the horrifying moment police officers were attacked by a man with a sword, in footage which was shown to the jury at the Daniel Anjorin murder trial. The schoolboy, 14, was 'slain' with a samurai sword on his way to school in Hainault, east London on April 30 last year. Marcus Monzo denies murder and four counts of attempted murder. He appeared at the Old Bailey today. The court heard Monzo had driven into Donato Iwule in his van before attacking him with a sword and beginning a 20-minute rampage. After killing Daniel, he went into the home of Sindy Ariasand Henry De Los Rios Polina and attacked them next to their four-year-old. He also attacked police officers PC Yasim Mechem-Whitfield and Inspector Moloy Campbell. In footage shown to jurors, police arrive at the scene where Monzo is stood holding a sword, standing over a body. When one officer attempts to help the victim, Monzo approaches while holding the sword. Officers are heard shouting at Monzo 'drop it' while he asks them 'do you believe in god.' Monzo then shouts: 'Is there anybody here who believes in god.' Officers attempt to use a spray to stop the defendant, but he begins to flee, going into nearby gardens. Police bodycam footage then shows officers chasing Monzo down an alleyway. As they approach the end, Monzo appears and strikes one of the officers with his sword. An officer is heard shouting: 'Police officer stabbed.' Another video captures the moment just before a second officer is stabbed in the arm while trying to block the sword with a baton. Monzo is then seen on a roof as he attempts again to get into people's gardens. An officer shouts 'Lock your doors, everyone lock your doors'. Jurors were then shown police body worn footage of Monzo being tasered and then handcuffed while lying on the floor in a garden. He was seen earlier in the video holding his sword as paramedics arrived at the scene Giving evidence Inspector Moloy Campbell said he was on his way to the scene when he heard over the radio that a police officer had been stabbed. 'Members of the public were walking briskly in the opposite direction to where we were travelling and many were gesturing in the general direction of the incident.' He said he arrived and went behind some garages to find Monzo. 'Our purpose was to arrest, and protect the other officers. I decided to confront the defendant. 'I decided to first try and use my PAVA spray to keep as big a distance as possible. 'It had no effect, the defendant blocked the spray and then began to come for me. 'I dropped my PAVA spray and drew my baton. I struck him or attempted to strike him. 'Mr Monzo was slashing at me with the large sword. He made contact with my hand and with my bodyworn video camera. 'I was disappointed because it meant I couldn't carry on with what I was trying to do. 'It was frightening. I remember my priority being to try and carry on the police response. 'I looked down down and my black baton was now red. 'I was being backed into a coroner and I withdrew away from the corner.' He was treated at the scene and taken to hospital. Forensic pathologist Dr Ashley Fegan-Earl, who conducted a post-mortem, told the court that Daniel's injuries were 'unsurvivable'. 'They were unsurvivable however quickly medical attention could be brought,' he said. Monzo, who was born in Brazil, had told his customers he was an Elon Musk fan and believed the earth was flat and the Pope was an evil lizard, the court has heard. He skinned and deboned his own cat Wizard before carrying out the Hainault attacks. Jurors were played a 999 call Monzo made after he attacked Daniel. Some shouting could be heard but Monzo did not answer the operator's questions. Monzo could be heard asking police officers if they believe in God while they told him to drop his sword. He remained on the call while he attacked PC Mechem-Whitfield and went into the bedroom of Mr De Los Rios Polina and Ms Arias. Monzo entered the bedroom and said: 'Do you believe in God? Just tell me now, do you believe in God?' while the couple screamed. The operator continued to ask Monzo if he could hear her but he did not respond. He eventually came to the phone and said 'Hi, I need people who believe in God, the same as me. Faith. I promise my life to God and I'm ready.' The operator told Monzo 'please don't hurt anybody' and asked where he was.
