Easter Holidays

If you are thinking of hiring a sat nav this Easter Weekend and maybe through to the following Bank Holiday weekend the latest you can order is 4pm on Wednesday 20th April which will guarantee delivery by 1pm on Thursday 21st just before the Easter break. We still have a few sat nav’s remaining for the UK and also Europe for those travelling further afield.

The weather is looking perfect with temperatures set to sore into the mid twenties, hotter than Rome, Benidorm and Tenerife! So its definitely a good time for a staycation.If you are staying within the UK then we recommend visiting our home county Dorset. With the sun set to be shining all weekend it is well worth visiting Sandbanks in Poole which is renowed for its million pound properties, excellent beaches and coastline.

To all our customers we wish you a Happy Easter!

We have moved!

We have recently moved to new offices located in Bournemouth. As we have extended our product range, mainly on our Zintech Media website, we required the additional office space and have made the short move from Poole to Bournemouth. We previously shared offices with Fonix LED who provide LED screen hire for events such as X Factor, movie premieres, concerts and sporting events. Our new address is The Old Mill, 18 Wharfdale Service Road, Bournemouth, BH4 9BT. All of our products will be supplied with return packaging with this address.

Easter Weekend and the Royal Wedding

All public holidays prove to be the busiest times for our sat nav hire service and this year with the double wammy of Easter weekend and then the Royal Wedding we fully expect to be busier than ever. It is very likely we are going to run out of sat nav’s therefore we recommend booking now for this period. If you are travelling to the UK from overseas for this period please contact us about our collection point at Heathrow so that you have your sat nav for your first journey. We are still offering our pre-programming service for this period to make using the sat nav even easier. Car Hire will also be in strong demand for this period. The best way to find the best car hire deals is to use our sister site www.comparisoncarhire.com which is a car hire comparison website and offers the best price from a number of leading car hire suppliers.

House available for rent on Erinvale Golf and Country Club

With the World Cup less than 100 days away accommodation is becoming scarce in all the areas where games are being played, especially in Cape Town where England are likely to be playing twice (if they progress through the group stage).

One of our travel partners have the ideal property available for rent for the duration of the World Cup. The house is situated on the spectacular Erinvale Golf and Country Club in Somerset West just 35 minutes from the Green Point stadium in Cape Town. When games are not being played this is the perfect location if you enjoy playing golf, visiting the many wineries, shopping or just relaxing.

The house is a 3 bedroom property that has been recently refurbished in January 2010. There are 2 bathrooms, new fitted kitchen, open plan dining and lounge area and excellent outdoor living including a swimming pool. The house enjoys views on to the championship golf course (home to the SA Open in 2003 and 2004) and is surrounded by the Helderberg mountains.

To find out more information and rates on renting this property during the World Cup South Africa 2010 then please contact Zintech on 01202 741212 and ask for Andy.

Business as usual for Zintech

As you will all be aware from the amount of press coverage it has received Royal Mail have now begun a 48 hour strike. It has also been well reported about the disruption this causes to businesses such as ourselves and other companies who rely on the Royal Mail delivery service. We can assure all customers who have placed orders with us and those who are considering it, our service will not be affected by the strike action. We have contingency plans in place so that we will deliver your product a few days earlier or if an order is placed on the day of a strike we will use our alternative courier- FedEx.

The current strike is for 48 hours from 0400 today, Thursday 22 October and the communication workers union (CWU) are threatening more strikes if the dispute cannot be resolved. The way it is looking at the moment the two parties do seem a long way from a resolution so there is a good chance the strike will be prolonged in the run up to Christmas. The last postal strikes occurred 2 years ago and as a company we still managed to provide the same service to all our customers. The cost  to use an alternative courier is more costly for us but we intend to absorb this cost so that our prices remain the same.

You may see Zintech in the media in the coming days as we were interviewed recently by a leading national newspaper to give our thoughts on the strike and how it will affect our business. As we have said above, whilst the strike is inconvenient, we will still deliver the same high level of service as normal.
