HOVERBOARD owners have been advised to "throw" their must-have Christmas gadgets AWAY by Amazon, as a watchdog urged all retailers to remove the self-balancing scooters from sale in the UK following several FIRES.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
 </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Self-balancing scooters – nicknamed Hoverboards – have been dropped by a number of high-profile British retailers including Amazon UK, Argos and John Lewis.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The news comes just days after the <a href="http://newsnewsblog.blogspot.com/2015/12/warning-thousands-of-hoverboards-seized.html">National Trading Standards, or NTS, seized some 15,000 of the 17,000 self-balancing scooters being imported into the UK</a>.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
NTS officials said many of the hoverboards seized had "non-compliant electrical components that could explode or catch fire".</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Non-compliant plugs, with missing fuses, were found with many of the self-balancing scooters. <a href="http://newsnewsblog.blogspot.com/2015/12/warning-thousands-of-hoverboards-seized.html">This increases the risk of overheating and exploding</a>.</div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
Bundled chargers, cables and batteries also failed a key number of National Trading Standards tests.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Amazon UK has told customers in an email to take their self-balancing boards and "throw them away" at recycling centres, according to the Daily Telegraph.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The Government has warned consumers to "think twice" before buying the must-have Christmas gift amid fears that imitation devices are being sold at discount prices.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Self balancing scooters are battery-powered boards which use a gyroscope to navigate.</div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
Riders can drive forward and backwards by leaning in the respective direction. Tipping one foot either forward or backwards allows the rider to turn.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The boards, which have no universally accepted name, debuted in China but have become increasingly popular in the United States and UK after multiple celebrity appearances.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The gadgets range in price from £300 to £800 and are illegal to use in public in the UK.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
 </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Retail Ombudsman watchdog has confirmed UK businesses could be liable for any injuries caused by defective gadgets.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Chief ombudsman Dean Dunham said: "I would urge UK retailers to take the responsible step of removing unsafe hoverboards from sale or face the risk of the full force of the Consumer Protection Act, under which the retailer can be held liable for any injuries caused by unsafe goods. Retailers who continue to sell hoverboards, that they deem to be safe, should also take note of the Crown Prosecution Service's position. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
"They have made clear that for safety reasons it is illegal to ride these hoverboards in public (on the road or paths) and this important information should be communicated to the consumer at the point of sale.</div>

"Consumers who have already purchased a hoverboard, perhaps as a Christmas present, should contact the retailer and for their written assurance that it's safe and in particular that it has a compliant plug with a fuse.<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
"Where retailers are unable to provide such assurance, consumers should simply ask for a refund as they are entitled to under the Consumer Rights Act and report the matter to Citizens Advice consumer service by calling 03454 04 05 06."</div>
<h3 style="text-align: justify;">
<strong>National Trading Standards has released some key advice to consumers looking to purchase a hoverboard in time for Christmas –</strong></h3>
<ul>
<li><div style="text-align: justify;">
Never leave the self-balancing scooter charging unattended, especially overnight</div>
</li>
<li><div style="text-align: justify;">
Check the shape of the plug, many of the seized boards had a  clover-shaped mains plug.</div>
</li>
<li><div style="text-align: justify;">
Double-check the online reviews before buying. Look for information about the company's head office as well as a landline number.</div>
</li>
<li><div style="text-align: justify;">
Buy from a trusted online retailer. Websites with spelling and grammatical errors can be an indication that the seller is not part of a professional operation.</div>
</li>
<li><div style="text-align: justify;">
Do not be dazzled by a bargain. Always question the price and if it looks too good to be true, it most likely is.</div>

Independent website <a href="http://downdetector.co.uk/problems/argos" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">DownDetector.uk</a>, which detects "when services go down or have outages", has reported a spike in the number of people complaining about outages on parts of the <a class="skimlinks-unlinked" data-skim-creative="500005" data-skimwords-word="Argos.co.uk" href="http://argos.co.uk/" title="">Argos.co.uk</a> website.</div>

ARGOS suffered a technical glitch during its four-day online sales in the run-up to Black Friday.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
 </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Argos customers vented their anger after a bug brought down the popular retailer's website during its pre-Black Friday sales, dubbed Red Friday.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Shoppers had flocked to the UK firm's online store after it advertised huge discount on children's toys, electrical goods and console bundles.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The retailer said deals are to be available every Friday between now and December 25 in attempt to relieve some of the chaos expected to break out on November 27, so called Black Friday 2015. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
But furious customers were left unable to take advantage of the savings after the website went offline for hours at the weekend.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
 </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Shoppers flooded social media, complaining the IT glitch had led to missed payments and unfulfilled deliveries.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Twitter user @Traypt claimed he was having ongoing issues making purchases, adding: "Day three of trying to order bunk beds for my son, but I get errors every time after payment @Argos_Online"</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
User @Welshlinzi said the site should have apologised earlier for the "shambles" adding: "I gave up and ordered with @AmazonUK instead."</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Referring to the high number of angry customers, @AlexGreem88 simply said: "Not sure I would want to be part of the @Argos_Online web team this morning."</div>

"This is the worst customer service I have experienced in my life."</div>
