British Airways flights
Read in the paper a couple of days ago that BA are going to be charging customers for booking online. I think the charge was £1, but not sure. So I guess the alternative is to phone them on a ridiculously high charge 0870 number, or trudge down to your travel agent to do it! They also said they were reducing the travel…

Fonezone
Anyone else had problems getting a refund from this mobile phone company in Northern Ireland? I returned my phone a month ago and they still have my money. :confused:

Game shops con? Is this Legal?
Hello there, I am an avid pc software/game buyer and I spend at least £50 a month on Pc games and software. Now the shops that I use particularly "Game" operate a "non returns policy on pc software" I question, is this legal? They say "we do not exchange pc software, after it has been put into the computer, so have you…

Little Chef 'Free' Flights
Got a call today from Little Chef after we'd finally tracked their promotion department down and asked them to find out what happened to their free flight promotion. Having collected the required receipts and applied in mid-December for a weekend trip to New York we've been told that there's no chance of the requested…

Don't renew your home insurance with Morethan
I got a quote through with a 6% increase. I ran my identical details through their website and was quoted more than 20% less (plus lower apr for payment by installments) I rang CS - they told me this was quite correct - what a rip off - there is nothing stopping me from cancelling and taking the new quote instead. It seems…

People who use the term "a billion" without defining it
I have seen three definitions of the term "a billion" recently. I stupidly thought there were just two - theirs and ours.

be-direct.co.uk
Excellent electrical goods website. Ordered a new TV package on Monday, they said one item was out of stock, I was happy to wait until it was in before it was delivered. They called Wednesday, could they deliver on Thursday? I asked if they could do Friday, yes no problem. Items all arrived mid morning Friday. It was a…

Online Discount Vouchers
I thought this was for people who'd found codes and they could post them to let everyone know. So how come it's full of "does anyone have a code for......." I feel like saying "no they bloody well don't, if they did they've have posted it already" Phew that's better, it's been on my mind for days

People who talk through plays and films
I went to see Mary Poppins last night. Paid a fortune for the tickets (even though they were the cheapest!) and it was wonderful. However, people very close to me were chatting the whole way through. Gosh, it's so annoying. Surely if you want to chat then you a) wouldn't have gone to see the musical or b) had a…

www.thedownloadplace.com - scam?
Anyone had dealings with this web site. I believe it must be a scam. I have become a lifetime member at $39.95. :'( :'( :'( :'( The reason for joining was to download some office software that I am after. It also says you can download music, films, TV shows etc. It is only after you have signed up and paid money by credit…

They offer a free 2 hour workshop in various locations then invite you to go on a further course to learn more but nowhere does it state how much these extra courses cost. They also have a membership ( i…

Asda
We bought a Pacific DVD player a few months ago for £35 from Asda. It has never worked very well and we had always blamed the dvd's we put in it. It was only when we put same dvds on daughters laptop and they played perfecly that we realised it was the player. Spent ages looking for receipt, credit card statement etc but…

Postmen!
Just walked 50 yards down the road, and counted (and picked up) about 30 rubber bands - there were more down people's drives, especially near letter boxes. The size and colour were exactly the same as those left outside my front door, just after the postman has been. Why can't the postmen keep hold of them and put them in…
