Hargreaves Lansdown £25 offer in lieu of Error
I am a private small investor with an internet Acc. with Hargreaves Lansdown. I came on line at about 08.05 one morning late Dec. last year to find Cybit shares had jumped about 50p from the last time I looked turning my £100 odd investment into over £6000. I did a deal at once to sell £5000 through my net Acc. which was…

A few weeks ago I e-mailed them from the site asking if they had any plans to add MoreTh>n Credit Card to their supported sites.

Watch Your Powergen Bill
Just received Jan 2005 bill for the last quarter of 2004. As is the norm it was based on an estimate of usage. However, the estimate provided on this occasion has been grossly UNDER estimated. On the face of it all very well perhaps, providing a low charge just after Xmas. However, as a substantial price increase has been…

Double Velvet / UCI Cinema Tickets not received
Has anyone else not yet received their UCI cinema ticket vouchers? I sent off 14 tokens (plus SAE) to be exchanged for 7 ticket vouchers on 12th December, and haven't heard a thing. I've called the 08700 number, but it just routes to some no-name voicemail extension at a no-name office. I leave messages, but get no…

Parking at my hospital
This is something which I really need to rant about. The hospital where I work, has recently been built at an out of town site, and there is not enough parking for it's staff, let alone the patients & visitors. >:( Valuable time is wasted by staff driving round looking for spaces, some have even been known to give up and…

Daily Mail Medical Books
Was pleased with the free Part One of the medical part-work in last Saturday's paper. However I now find that to complete the 26-book set, it will cost £90 (25 x £3.60). A decent Health and Medical book can be bought for around £40 in most good book shops, so I wonder how many people will be drawn into collecting this set…

Wickes Kitchen - 'warp' speed !
I had a 'denver' kitchen delivered in october of last year; pretty nice for a wickes kitchen I have to say! smokey blue/grey doors and nice thick white decor panels. Unfortunately, when it came to putting it together I found door after door was warped - in fact, every single door was warped about 5mm from centre line to…

RANT OF THE WEEK: NAME AND SHAME NATIONWIDE
Reader's of m'book will know I'm no fan of 'price promises' - false security blankets making people think they've a good deal. Nationwide's new car insurance ad says "find it cheaper within 28 days and we'll refund the difference". What a scam! How many people check quotes AFTER signing up? And all it's offering is…

Get your hedges cut - please!
Friend, who is registered blind and walks with the aid of a long cane, was complaining vehemently today about how many people don't bother to trim back their hedges. Says he is constantly walking into hedges that stretch half way across the pavement and obviously haven't been trimmed in years. Result, scratched face,…

middle lane hoggers!!
drives me mad! people who drive down the motorway in the middle lane, never switching lanes, even when theres a clear run on the inside lane. I blame a lot of traffic jams on these people, how many times have you hit a traffic jam and at the end of it there was no crash, accident, or roadworks. frustrating! These lanes are…
