Hello
So my 4 year old laptop which I brought from you guys just died last night. Nothing happens when I turn on the power button. If it's connect via the AC adapter it seems to kill the adapter when I press the power button. (Green LED on the brick goes off). However when it's plugged in with he battery the led lights on the laptop to indicate it's charging is on. I've tried powering on with just the battery (and my spare battery) and still stays dead, despite knowing that at least one of them would have been fully charged.
To make things worse, is I'm currently in the Falklands and the idea of not having a laptop for near 6 months is kind of depressing.
My question is, are you able to deliver to the Falklands, roughly at what cost and with which courier would likely be used? I would assume if it was possible it would likely have to be delivered via ship and not air due to weight/dimensions likely meaning a very lengthy wait of a few months.
Sad times. :(

Looking at the delivery options it appears to be British Isles, Ireland and Europe. The is an option for British Forces Post Office (If you serve) that would be worldwide.

I only bring this up as i'd completely missed it myself a few days ago.

Yeah I serve in the forces and I did see that BFPO was an option. Just wanted to clairfy if that would also include the Falklands

If you can, calling PCS would be your safest option. Most of us on here don't work for PCS, we're just satisfied PCS customers who like to help. :)
