Like all tech guys (and girls) I like gadgets. One of them is the PowerBall. A crucial part in using the gadget is the little red rope. And a while ago I lost it. Apparently one of the main reasons that the little red rope disappears is when a cat uses it as its lunch/dinner/whatever-time-of-day meal. That was not the case here as our cat lives outside (I’m allergic). No, I think our vacuum cleaner ate it.
I am not one of those who can start the PowerBall just by using my hands – believe me, I tried but I guess my fingers are just not long enough – so I went on the web to search for a replacement. And I found it! Right on the website of The Powerball People!
After submitting my loss through their website here, I got a prompt reply from Philip Macbain to confirm what is written on the rubber grip band of my PowerBall. This was last week Wednesday. I replied back in the evening. On Friday I received a confirmation that a spare part shipment had been dispatched containing 1x – Neon Pro – Starting Cords. And today I received an envelope containing 2 little red ropes, posted in Ireland! This is even an extra rope because my original purchase from some years ago now only contained one rope!
I would hereby like to thank The PowerBall People for their outstanding customer service! Hoping to own a metallic ball some day in the future
So if you’ve lost your rope(s) as well, contact The PowerBall People!
