Junk mail !
Can I encourage everyone to use the postage paid envelopes that arrive with your junk mail. I have used the mail preference service and it works very well for me. I still get letters addressed to the occupier or not adddressed at all and delivered by Royal Mail. I always put the literature back into the envelope and post…

Tesco Petrol Pricematch policy
I posted this on a different thread, but it was buried deep in that thread and I think now I have written it more people deserve to be able to read it. Tesco should refund double the difference and reduce the petrol price to match if you find a cheaper source of petrol within 3 miles of the store. (begin Rant..) I found…

Dhl
Having recently moved house, and continuing my normal practice of shopping online, it had to happen sooner or later. In the last week, I've had 3 packages dispatched from Amazon via Omega (which is part of DHL now). The first turned up as expected but the second & third (with the same delivery address on it) have been…

Parceline- sorry we missed you
He didn`t miss me he didn`t knock, oh I hate waiting in for things to come. But it was £30 cheaper to buy online. I have emailled them and told them that I`m not happy. DO they get paid for each delivery attempt? This means I will have to take kids to school/playgroup in the car tomorrow, to save time, an hour round trip…

Coventry Building Society
Coventry B.S. have been promoting their 60+ Saver account, on the television, recently. However, in my case anyway, they don't seem to want my money. I 'phoned for an application form etc. some time ago and they sent me 60+ Bond details and part completed application after it was specifically confirmed that I wanted the…

Index.co.uk - warranty problem
I bought a trampoline from Index via the internet last August. A part of it is faulty and rather than replace the part the whole item needs to be returned. I have now had to wait in for 3 days and the trampoline has still not been collected. I can't get a refund until it has been collected. I am really annoyed and…

Dodgy phone calls
Had a phone call this afternoon, claiming to be from BT Customer Services. When they asked to speak to a certain person it set alarm bells ringing - it was for the previous owner. The person on the line was spouting on about how I could save money on my phone bills if I paid 'them' by direct debit. When I questioned why…

Lovely AA man!
On my way home today from shopping I got a puncture and had to pull over on the hard shoulder of the motorway, within minutes (without phoning) an AA van turned up and offered to help by changing the tyre, at that point I didn't care who did it,and couldn't think which roadside service we were with! Eventually I found my…

bol - still waiting for order after 2 months...
I ordered 2 books from bol on the 21 March (almost 2 months ago) and these have still not yet arrived. However they charged my card for the books on the day of the order. When i contacted them they said that I had cancelled my order - this is blatantly untrue. As they took the money on the date of the order and have failed…

Heathrow Airport Parking Charges!! Warning!
Hi all, AIrport parking at Heathrow is SO expensive already at £3.90 for an hour. I dropped my husband off yesterday evening and decided to stay and have a coffee with him before his flight. Now, because of the refurbishments it takes you nearly half an hour to get to the airport from the short stay car park, so I thought,…

Claires Gift Vouchers
Friends gave my daughter a gift voucher for her birthday from Claires. It was for £5. She was saving them up to do a shopping spree. When she got to the shop they refused to accept it because it was out of date! So they take your money and refuse to give goods!

Claire's Accessories
Little Poppy bought some items in Claire's today and was overcharged on 1 item by 40p. I brought it to the cashiers attention and she wanted me to fill out a refund form with my name and address. I refused as I didn't see why I should give personal data for their error. Got my 40p though!

Tesco Jersey - 5 weeks to deliver an 'in stock' DVD !
I am getting fed up with internet retailers advertising goods as 'in stock' and then claiming after you have placed your order that it is on 'back order'. It can't be that difficult to maintain 'active' stock levels on your website i.e. after you confirm an order you update the stock figure ! I think it should be illegal…
