Bit of a rant but I'm interested in other people's opinions.... I've been doing a fair bit of online shopping lately and have received 2 items the first that was misdiscribed and the second that was faulty.

Debit card fraud... bad day for me.
Hello all, I checked my Lloyds online account last night and found a transaction for £340 that I didn't recognise. I contacted the fraud line to contest it and asked if I should cancel my card with card services. 'It's probably best to do so, to be on the safe side' was the reply. So through to card services and I cancel…
