I see the mist clearing

Trading standards have begun investigating after an initiative launched by house builders appears to break laws on mis-selling. Back at the beginning of the year, a consortium of builders, sick of being asked stupid questions by new buyers approached a far east company to supply crystal balls to new customers. The purchasers were to refer to the ball in all circumstances for all questions regarding their new purchase. In the event that no acceptable answer was forthcoming from the ball, the buyer would simply ask the ball to provide a contact number for a telephone conversation.
Things were going fine with many buyers reporting better response from the crystal balls than the site managers, until Barry Jones asked his why the boiler only worked for an hour on Saturday and an hour on Sunday at precisely eight pm.
Unfortunately Barry threw the crystal ball in anger at his television one Sunday just as the boiler turned off again. Barry 'borrowed' a replacement from a traveling circus after having his fortune told. He returned expecting to meet a talk, dark electrician waiting to fix his boiler but as he placed the new crystal ball on the kitchen table, the swirling inside cleared and a message read: "Barry you're a feckin idiot, your old crystal ball was made of glass"
Shocked by the clear response he asked the ball what was wrong with the boiler. Immediately the crystal ball indicated that the special needs electrician had wired the boiler into the Virgin Media box so whenever he was recording x-factor the boiler also came on.

Barry dutifully asked the crystal ball for a number to contact customer services and the mist again cleared with another message. "Get a grip Barry, I'm not a bloody clairvoyant!"
