480p is not considered HD, technically or otherwise. Demand your money back.

>While there is no standardized meaning for high-definition, generally any video image with considerably more than 480 vertical lines (North America) or 576 vertical lines (Europe) is considered high-definition.

If there is no "Standardized Meaning" can you really go back and demand a refund?...curious, not trolling. :)

I think if you fail all common post-1970 definitions, then yes. Absolutely.

It's also a customer services process; there's never anything stopping you from demanding your money back. Just as they can tell you to buzz off. This seems well within the "worth a punt" category, here.
