how to complain ???
I found a piece of wood in a pack of Walkers Sensations crisps - It had been cooked and I found it when I inadvertently put it into my mouth thinking it was a crisp.

Cust Srvs are atrocious - take ages to pick up the phone and also dont return your…

Mock Auctions/Here today, gone tomorrow cheap electrical goods
There seems to be an epidemic of these types of sales. I thought it might be a good idea to make a thread specifically for these so they can be discussed within the same thread, and the thread can also serve as a warning to anyone who may have seen and considered going to one of these places. (Maybe sticky??) If you see…
