"Having, since 1979, with great pleasure & satisfaction, used; extold & recommended, Blacks of Greenock and\/or Vango. This despite Vango Force ten 1 (wo)man far to small. 2 man far to big. They, have of late, gone to HELL. CON{(ned)demned}sumer service, after careLESS. Thank goodness for www.Temu replacement, Banshee poles. (Force Ten. Still good as was). Given which, they can't be bothered, I maybe shouldn't never, ever again, be bothered to re-purchase Vango. As has been advised as such on global business reviews. Whom I hope & trust, should post as such?"

"What WERE 5 decades ago until of late, exemplary products & after care. Note past tense...\r\n\r\nThis, to advise 5 decades on, I still have my, as new, FORCE TEN T E N T, with ALLOY POLES. Ditto.\r\n\r\nMy original Vango minus 25 degrees, centigrade bag having developed cold spots, in British Columbias\/Alberta, Canadas, Rocky Mountains, immediately replaced, without question, at no extra charge as since used in Rockies, Bolovian Andes, Iceland & Kamyatka Siberia.\r\n\r\nBlacks of Greenock as they WERE then extremely receptive & responsive.\r\n\r\nHowever. It is with extreme lamentable regret, I have to advise, they have gone to hell. Vango, since having become, clueless, useless, unreceptive & unresponsive.\r\n\r\nWere it not for subsequent in flight baggage restrictions,I should not have foolishly purchased on line a deplorable\r\nVango Banshee 200. It being far to short & low. No upper roof vent. Worse than useless, fibre glass poles, shattered within a couple of weeks. Ironically, not in New Zealands, Southern Island\/Alps. But British Isles, Northwest Highlands.\r\n\r\nGiven which, those I hither too extolled & recommended to everyone & anyone, can no longer be bothered...I can't ever again be bothered to ever again, re-purchase from such deplorables."
