Elephant. Is this correct??
I recently changed my car insurance policy from Elephant to the RAC. However, today I have recieved an e-mail from Elephant claiming I still owe them £52.21. When I phoned to find out why, I was told it was a 'back dated payment' because half way through my policy with Elephant I got 3 points on my licence which I never…

Is this the most rude and offensive Tesco delivery guy EVER?
Just had an awful experience with a Tesco's delivery driver. He didn't ring the intercom, as the others do, he called my boyfriend's mobile and said he was at the end of the street. We took that to mean 'so come down and open the door' (we live in an apartment block). But no, he was literally at the end of the street about…

HomeCare Customer of British Gas ?
Beware... you would expect that paying a monthly fee for boiler and central heating cover would give you peace of mind. Not likely. My experience is one of blatant misdiagnosis in order to sell. This is how the scam works. You have your yearly safety inspection and the engineer places an at risk sticker on your appliance.…

The utter lying CON that is Empire Stores
Arrrrgggghhhhhhhhhhh I hate Empire Stores more than ever. 1 month ago I placed an order of a few bikini's and some flip-flops for my dad as a gift.

Hi there. My girlfriend is currently in new zealand. She received a text from a load of random numbers (not "Vodafone" as usual) saying she had to call a certain number to verify herself or she'll be cut off (the contract was about 3 weeks old and first payment due soon).

Chessington World of Adventures
I went to Chessington yesterday with my son and friend and her daughter. The park "houskeeping" was awful. There were huge industrial disgustingly smelly bins lying around the park. The drains were bad and really stinking in some places. They ran out of food in some of the kiosks by 4pm, in one of the kiosks the food prep…

In early July, we telephoned to query…
