I have had mine for years, had a few issues with the switch, it wouldn't turn off, but have always managed to resolve it. Heat added for me, mine cost £24.99.

I sent a message to unbeatable-uk last night and they got back to me this morning.
I basically asked them about the switch problem and they said that out of 191 sold they have only had 4 with this problem!
They also said that unbeatable-uk and masterplug will honour the warranty for 2 years.
That has put my mind at rest. Hot deal!

The eBay ones from this deal are new from a VAT registered business! I would be really surprised if Masterplug didn't uphold the guarantee.

Well I've already bought three so if they are faulty they will go to the manufacturer as they have a 2 year warranty.

I was also told from masterplug that the ebay ones they wouldnt be able to do anything about, hence i sent the one i had from screwfix to them!

Yeah, i was told from Masterplug that using items with transformers for prolonged length of time will cause the switch to fail, thus 2 laptops with the external power supplies doesnt help for 9 hours a day! But its a plug, it should work!

I have two sorts: The original Masterplug with a push button switch and a white Sainsbury tower with a rocker switch similar to that shown here. The swtiches have gone on both.
This is probably why:

Had a couple of these, and the switch at the top always broke.
Very annoying.

Yes, i have too, i brought 2 from this company, and one from screwfix, and all 3 became faulty within 1 day with broken switches on the top. I have sent one off to masterplug so they can send me a better product.
I only had 2 laptops and a thermal label printer on it, pathetic really!
