He definitely didn't make anything here :rotfl::rotfl: He'll be home for dinner though.
Long story/rant coming up.
June 2015 we bought a new washer and dryer from an online company Washer has done nothing but cause issues, they've repaired it 5 times in the first 12 months, I paid twice in the following 12 months and tbh since then I've just managed because I can't afford it
Anyway many complaints to B3ko and nothing just standard out of 12 month warranty not our problem. So thought I'd let the online company know how dissapointed I was, that I didn't even have a working machine for 12 weeks before it broke down and the same problem has happened repeatedly since. They said nothing to do with them but I could take their extended cover and someone would come and repair it (£140 a year but would knock £40 off because of my issues or I could have £40 off a new washer) Told him to call me next week and I'll think.
Anyway this afternoon he called back and said he'd spoken to someone higher and they would take £127.75 of any washing machine they sell (the washer minus depreciation over 2.5 years)
Spoke to mum and shes going to put the £72 to that and get a new washer delivered
Can't believe how helpful online company has been :T:T Shame same can't be said for B3ko!0 -
Hidden, maybe it's the lawyer in me but I would have complained until they gave you a replacement for free. It's more than obvious that the machine they sold you was not fit for purpose! Seven repairs in two years is absolutely not reasonable at all. This isn't to take away from your achievement because loads of people would have kept hush about it so I'm so glad you got the £127 at least!Debt Totals July 2019::

I just wanted them to come and fix mine for free to be honest
I'm worrying now about the extra money mums putting to it and kind of regretting it0 -
Can't believe OH is still playing silly b*****s. I'm ever so cross with him on your behalf
On the plus side you're doing fabulously without him. New oven, new kitchen bits, new job

Yep, wholeheartedly agree with you missus
If he is determined to stay away then why not make it easier for him and put his belongings on the doorstep and change the locks... :rotfl:BUGGRITMILLENIUMHANDANDSHRIMP I TOLD EM! - Foul Ole Ron
It is important that we know where we come from, because if you do not know where you come from, then you do not know where you are, and if you don't know where you are, then you don't know where you are going. If you don't know where you're going, you're probably going wrong.

New job is confirmed and tax credits have been spoken too, although I'm going to call again tomorrow to confirm what was said. Although at the rate OH is working we won't lose them, he hasn't been in work again today Oh well fed him his dinner etc and he's away to friends. No bother for me I will just enjoy the peace in a nice clean house
Kids away to bed, really on the countdown to the holidays now. We are going to make cards and gift boxes from things we've got in. Then bake cupcakes and make a little envelope with a seed and poem on for the teachers. I hope it doesn't make us look bad not spending any money
I've wrote the uniform list and I think my mum will help out with bits she usually does coats or shoes.
Going to catch up on some tv now and have a cuppa
Tennis Stamps feet not a good day. Countdown to next year starts0 -
You are doing so well. Glad you are taking the jobs b. Those teacher presents sound so cute, perfect and personal.0

Thank you
Busy day doing boring jobs today, have new kitchen worktops being fitted tomorrow so need to make sure everythings ready for that.
Need to chase the prescription and get it corrected because we need some of the items they keep getting wrong. Have spoken to consultant and got different codes to what the GP is using in the hope that the new codes link to the correct items.
Need to clear the fridge and make any sorry looking ends of things into good things for the freezer Along with writing the shopping list for tomorrow. Hopefully a very short list Although my yard brush seems to have grown legs and ran away so will need a new outside brush, maybe I'll get that today, definitely a need I can't not sweep up
Hope everyone has a lovely day Nearly weekend x0
