This bunch of jokers took £229 from my account, totally unauthorised, it took 5 calls and 2 wks to get it back. I then returned an unsuitable TV which they received 6 weeks ago and they still haven't refunded the money. I've made over 15 calls and spoken to a variety of muppets who lie repeatedly. I've used this company in…

Clearing cheques on the same day as you bank cash!
I'm hoping that I am posting this on the correct board. Last week, I wrote a cheque to the value of £88 with the Royal Bank of Scotland and when I realised it was going to clear on the Wednesday of the following week (and also realising there were no funds to clear it!!), I went to my branch and deposited cash to make sure…

Avoid Tommy Hilfiger Goods

For all you campers out there! We had a khyam tent which we bought last year in an end of season sale, and used it for the 1st time last month.
