Dom Watts is an unlikely consumer champion. Yet, the dad of three from Croydon took on the power and might of Kodak – and won.
His Kodakcamera protest Web site became the focus for a month-long campaign by consumers in search of fair play.
Yesterday, Kodak caved in to pressure and agreed to honour a deal for a cut-price digital camera – even though it maintained that the price tag of £100 was a mistake.
For Dom, Kodak’s capitulation proved to be the start of a busy round of newspaper and TV interviews for the IT contractor.
