Can i be the first to laugh at all the idiots with their smart arse comments? What's so unbelievable about a faulty charger then? Some people don't know when to keep their mouths shut, this topic is messed up because of them.

Nothing is unbelievable about a faulty charger or even a batch of faulty chargers. Quite possible and good reason to recall boxes which contain them.
As you may have noticed: we are making fun of the explosion part.... as the first post of this thread... kinda suggested.... there's chargers exploding all over....

Yup, I agree,
but can we get back to the issue.
THERE ARE FAULTY CHARGERS OUT THERE!!!!!
They may or may not explode, if you have one that is made in Thailand by Delta and was purchased recently, YOU COULD BE AFFECTED.
If you don't believe me contact your nearest Carphone Warehouse store, they should all have had the notification by now.
The branches in Aberdeen (Scotland) ARE PULLING BOXES TO REPLACE CHARGERS. There was someone in the back shop with a pile of boxed
S.E. phones replacing the chargers as I got mine replaced.
This is not a hoax.
They even added a note to my file on their system that I had had my charger replaced (could be sending letters to affected customers????)
Sorry to be the bringer of bad news.......

I'm not talking about your funny bomb comments etc vlam, That's natural progression of the subject. It's things like gullible and flat out denials etc that annoyed me.

yup, mine was a 3 pin european, only 3 days old.
It never ran hot or made a noise.
I was put under the impression (by the woman that replaced mine)
that the 'fault' could cause the charger to short (she indicated somewhere around the cable entry) hence the 'explosion'
The thing that I find hard to work out is why have there not been any posts from people WITH exploding chargers?????
Could this be something that they found out internally????
Or have 'capped' the reports and done the recall????
Damage limitaion????

Mine's seems to randomly charge them stop and start again, could be the start of the fault. I'll be returning it tomorrow.
