Lewis Posted November 4, 2009 Share Posted November 4, 2009 Might be worth telling Omlet. Not sure they can do anything or if its a trademark but they could have a word and see. Either way its really obviously cheeky Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jools Posted November 4, 2009 Share Posted November 4, 2009 I doubt there's anything they can do tbh, unless they've copyrighted Eggloo as well. And what's worse is that they look like the rest of the poor quality, flimsy, imported rubbish flooding the market .......... which is only good for kindling Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lewis Posted November 6, 2009 Share Posted November 6, 2009 I doubt there's anything they can do tbh, unless they've copyrighted Eggloo as well. We did something in Business Studies and companies have won when they are spelt differently but sound the same. Just as an eg if you phoned up a shop and asked for an 'Eglu' you could mean Eggloo or Eglu as they sound the same when spoken so Omlet could potentially lose customers to Eggloo and they may have a case?
