New Bed
Hope that this is in the correct section. Does anyone know where we would stand on this. A month ago we ordered a new bed and mattress. The bed has got hydraulics, so that it lifts and you can use the whole space under the bed for storage. The mattress that we liked had a built in topper, was lovely and comfortable and the…

Ahhhhhh Comet!
I need some help here please. I purchased a Goodmans 37inch HD LCD TV from Comet last Saturday (3rd) and only really had a chance last night to sit down and watch some TV for any length of time. Basically the picture quality is horrible when anything other than a static shot is on screen, so fast moving images, cars or…

Car owners!! Sign the petition
For all those car owners....This is real!!!! Sarah Kennedy was on about this proposed car tax scheme on the radio.

Sky - Appauling customer service
Just wondering if I'm the only one who's been on the end of their disgusting customer service?? Long one beware: About 3 months ago they took £160 from my account. I phoned them the day they took it.

Ebay charge fee for failed d/d which was their fault
I'm livid! Just changed banks, new one has changed all my direct debits for me. Ebay ignored their notification and d/d bounced, leading to my account being debited with a £5 "administration charge". New bank has confirmed that they informed Ebay. I've pointed this out to Ebay but they have ignored this key point and…

Argh! Sent Wrong Memory Stick By Ebuyer!! CS No Use Whatsoever!
I ordered this http://www.ebuyer.com/UK/product/104891 MSXM2GN (2GB) a few days ago.

There's a picture of the High Speed version on ebuyer, and it's mentioned a few times on the reviews, too. The…

Lovefilm overcharged me and took my services away!
Hi all, I've just been reading all your posts about Lovefilm and although I got my £15 voucher for boots, I didn't realise I needed to return all my DVD's before it was actually cancelled so changed my package to the lower one for the second month. I checked my account a few days ago and they've taken out the £15.99 top…

Price Comparison sites don't Compare Prices
Strictly speaking, this is neither a warning or a rip-off just clearing up a misconception. Price Comparison websites should be better known as ECommerce Database Feed Websites as there is not one single site out there that actually compares prices. It's true that the user can, indeed, compare products and prices but the…

Dreams Bed Store? Nightmares would be a better name
Need to vent spleen even if there is nothing that can be done. So forgive the rant and marvel at the customer services from Dreams "Britain's Leading Bed Specialist".

Full credit to Staples
I recently experienced some pretty poor service in a Staples store. I emailed the company to express my dissatisfaction. They promptly and politely responded and this was followed up with a phone call from the regional manager and a letter from the store manager. I was made to feel like a proper customer again, unlike the…
