Well you have 7 working days from day of recieving it to return it under the distance selling act if you aren't happy, but maybe give OCUK a chance to rectify it first.

I plan on phoning em up on tuesday due to bank holiday tommorow and if I don't have any real answers it's a trip back in a van for the PC but it'snot like I don't know how to overclock I've done it before it's just I am more worried about losing my warranty with OCUK for overclocking it

I would be very surprised if you were to lose your warranty for overclocking to the level at which it was sold. Get in touch with OcUK, they will sort you out.
Last resort - take it back during your 7 days.

so far I've managed 3.8 GHz stable at 1.3 core volts and went up to 1.35 in steps but couldn't get a stable clock on 4.0 what is a 'safe' voltage for a 920?

I wouldn't go over 1.35 vcore and 1.35 qpi personally.

1.35 qpi and 1.55 vcore is what Intel say is the max but 1.4v+ vcore would create an incredible amount of heat I would imagine.
