    I bought a Yazoo milk shake for my son a couple of weeks before xmas, and it tasted off. I took it back to Asda and got a refund.

    I also complained to Yazoo about it by email, and this morning I had a letter from them and a 'goodwill gesture' of a coupon for a free bottle of Yazoo, and also £6 of 'Lovetoshop' high street vouchers!
    Well pleased with that.. sometimes it pays to complain!

    This is excellent customer service and very generous.

    Ive done similar with my loaf that was crumbled to pieces. I rang Sada customer sevices and they took details and then said to take it back to store for a refund and replace. I also rang Allison - no facebook or twitter feed that I could find as I was going to send them a photograph. Their CS was very short with me, took the details, not sure if I will get a letter in the post or not.

    Just have to wait and see what happens

    Hello Everyone.

    I don't post very often these days but I wanted to offer Squigs by sincere heartfelt sympathy on the loss of Loopy. She looked a very loyal and trusting friend from her photo yesterday. I always have 2 boxers and I know how empty the house is when one of them passes on. Your heart feels as though it has been ripped in 2 and you have an awful empty feeling inside. You did what was right for Loopy and she is at peace now.

    I'm trying to prepare myself for the worst with my older dog who's 9. We were in Scotland on holiday over Christmas and should have been there for 9 nights but came back after 3 nights as he was diagnosed with heart problems at the emergency vet on Christmas day. He's since had an ECG, heart scan and blood tests. He has congestive heart failure and is on medication but he could pass onto Rainbow Bridge at any time. It breaks my heart every day at the thought of losing him so I don't know how I'll be when the day actually arrives.

    I currently feel very guilty going to work and leaving him alone in case something happens whilst he's alone. We're currently looking at buying a webcam so we can monitor him whilst we're at work.
