Roberts radios
I've been lead to believe that Roberts are the aspirational standard for radios. However I've only bought two and they have both been faulty. The first one had a problem with the FM waveband, in that it couldn't be turned off except at the wall socket. Unfortunately I had it for a while before starting to use it, by which…

Amazon rubbish delivery date estimate
So, I've ordered a CD (well actually a DVD-Audio) from Amazon, and it says "not in stock, but we'll have it in 1-2 weeks". That's OK, I can wait. Two weeks pass. An email arrives saying "we haven't got it yet - it'll be another 2 weeks". Two and a bit more weeks pass. Another email arrives, saying "we still haven't got it…

Greasy Palm Not Paying Out
Has anyone else registered with Greasy Palm, but does'nt automatically get their cash back when its due? I shop a lot online and ALWAYS check to see if Greasy Palm has a link to that store - so I can get cashback. Almost always I have to submit a ticket for them to pay me my cashback. My real bugbear is that I have bought…

KFC- Bad service
I recently went into the drive thru at KFC in Plymouth with my Fiancee and my kids, the level of service was disgusting, from a rude person taking our order, the person serving us was rude, obnoxious and looked so untidy and unhygenic, then to top it off they got our order wrong, and provided no forks for the coleslaw and…
