I would normally be the first to say good service ... until it lets you down in such a big way - had a £1000 HD TV delivered, didn't work from the start, emailed the returns section, they offered to get it repaired :confused: (ummm, why would we want to spend £1000 on buying a faulty TV??) ... they gave me Sharpserve…

ABSSUK Ltd are scammers
Hi Everyone, I joined abssuk home mailing program and paid a fee of £49.99 (apparently refundable once I send my first batch of 100 envelopes). Initially I did have my suspicions but thought it wouldn't hurt to try and I could always make £49.99. On their site they make it out so that people would get the impression that…

Hi My first post (although been lurking for a while - brill site!) but need to vent. My daughter bought a pushchair in Mamas and Papas yesterday.

MP3 player Refusal to honour warranty - fair?
I've just had an MP3 player, which was faulty and sent back to the seller (a reputable online store with whom I have had multiple orders and so far no problems until now) under their RMA system, returned to me with a notice saying the warranty was void. The reason they give is that a sticker on the back of the MP3 had come…

Rant about P & O Ferries Booking System when 'spending' points.
Have complained about this numerous times to P & O (by telephone and email)but to no avail. Just need to have a rant about it. We travel often on the Northern Ireland/Scotland route, so use their frequent traveller scheme i.e. Quay Awards. Good scheme and points build up quickly. Now, here is the downfall. When booking…

Morphy Richards Vacuum Problem
A week ago my fantastic Miele Cat & Dog died :( I couldn't afford a new Miele so had a look in Argos at alternatives. As I have 2 long haired collies that shed bucket loads of hair, a pet friendly machine was essential. I picked the Morphy Richards Pet bagless cleaner. However I'm really disappointed with it. It came with…

Decel
I bought a container of Tesco Vitamin B tablets recently. Nothing wrong with the pills but the container was about one fifth full, the rest was packaged air. How come they are allowed to use such big containers for so little content? How many other products are deceptively packaged?
