Mesh
Hi all. Don't know if this is the correct place to post this, but I wrote to Mesh complaining about the keyboard we received with the computer, (it was 18 months ago). The letters are wearing off a few of the keys, so I thought they would be able to advise me what to do. This is the reply I got A keyboard can last 1 month…

Fusion software update
Grrrr.... Digifusion have updated the software on the digiboxes mainly due to "customer feedback". This software upgrade has removed the automatic dual buffering feature. It's been annoying me all night that I can no longer just flick between channels and rewind if I am a bit late flicking back. Digiboxes are great, but…

taxi driver
Excuse me whilst I have a little rant. My eldest son (he's 12) gets a taxi to school everyday as we live 6 miles from the school and his Aspergers means that the school bus is too loud and terrifying for him. The contract was given to a local one man firm much to my husbands disgust (the driver managed to reverse off the…

Sky
I called on 10th May to cancel my subscription as I will be away for the next 4 months. They offered to put me on the basic channel for 68p per month, so I took this option instead of cancelling completely, as it would be handy if my Dad wants to come round and watch anything in peace away from my Mum! But it looks like I…

Top marks to Morphy Richards customer service
My slow cooker recently went a bit kaput on me, the thermostat was getting a bit dodgy and the knob on the lid broke so I called to see what they could do as it was still under warranty. When I called initially they said that they would send out replacement parts of a new thermostat and a new knob for the lid of the slow…

Pixmania trouble
Hello Does anyone have any non 08700 numbers or email addresses for Pixmania - a notoriously difficult company to contact. I ordered a camera off them - great price - and shelled out for superfast delivery because I'm off on holiday but the camera hasn't turned up and now I am trapped in a labyrinth of misinformation,…

World for Less
Last summer a friend was showing me a supplement from the weekend press which had a purse on it she liked. I liked it too and it was on BOGOF, so I thought I'd buy her one and put it away for Christmas and keep the free one for myself. I filled in the coupon and the purses arrived. In January this year, saw a transaction…

Next Directory £3.50 charge
Did a search on this but didn’t find a great deal of information. Requested a copy of the Next Directory a few months ago via this page: https://order.next.co.uk/dir-mail.asp and duly received the catalogue. Was slightly baffled a few days ago when I received an invoice for £3.50. Returning to the above form, there is…

Virgin Wine
More of a DON'T Shop... I've just politely sat through 15 minutes of spiel on the phone from a Virgin Wine rep colourfully describing the characteristics of each and every wine in their exclusive "telephone offer only" case which they're trying to use to entice previous customers back. I had to bluntly ask how much it was…
