Welcome,

I thought I would get stuck into writing about Guarantees, since you have taken the time to come to this page, thought it worthwhile giving you something you would find interesting. Guarantee registrations take many forms, typically they are either through returning a pre-printed form to the manufacturer or their agent, going to the manufacturer's website and filling out the details, or another method that I found out recently telephoning in your guarantee registration. Before I started out this website, I personally never thought about registering a guarantee. But then I moved into my apartment here in Dublin City Centre, and bought a range of different electrical products. From TVs to toasters to kettles to Irons, all had the product guarantee details and registrations. It got me thinking if I had a problem with any of these products how would I know if the product was still within the guarantee period and how do I prove it? So www.ProductFul.com was born!!

My reasons for starting up this website are:

(A) To allow you like many other consumers one centralised website to store your guarantees.

(B) To allow manufacturers to have an online service that gives them quick easy access to the guarantees registered against their company.

(C) To allow consumers to login anytime and see if their product is still under guarantee and what way they can go about contacting the manufacturer if they need their product fixed.

(D) Manufacturers will have a system of not just tracking their guarantees registered against them, but also seeing trends and analysing those people who are buying their products QUICKER.

I have given just a brief outline, our site will be updated in the near future with more functionality for you  to review. If you take our survey by clicking 'Take survey' above and leave your contact e-mail address within the survey, we will be able to keep you up to date on developments.

Useful links I have found in helping me with this business:

The below link is a good starting point to understanding guarantees, and this website is useful for those who live in the Republic of Ireland.

If you live in mainland Europe the European Commission has a useful website detailed below which will fill you in on your consumer rights:

http://ec.europa.eu/consumers/hot_topics/10principles_en.htm

The above is a useful article and it outlines generally what consumer rights are. It is in several different languages.

For those living in the United Kingdom, have a look at the below:

I am currently researching the consumer market and looking for feedback, so if you have read this article and would like to participate feel free to leave a comment.

We shall update in the next while with more information for you to review.
