Photoglossy and credit card fraud?
My friend last month has someone trying to spend 100s pounds over the internet on her debit card. The only place she had really used the card online was at photoglossy.com and easyjet. The card was cancelled and replaced, then this week someone tried to make 100s pounds of charges on her credit card. This has only ever…

Land Registry - Hopeless!
It's not my week! :mad: After the Harrods - Hopeless thread, now the Land Registry has messed up big time. I sent all the correct forms/documents to register a property in my name (I rang them to check). Today the application came back, rejected but referring by Title Number to a totally different property on the other…

TESCO called a customer a "Thief"
Hey there. Recently had an incident at Tesco while trying to use the Misprice Policy. I believe it should be posted here as it was NOT to do with the misprice thread on MSE and actually a seperate ordeal. I was using it due to a misprice I saw on my receipt. Originally I was told the policy had expired, then I was told by…

Orange - should I take this further?
I'm looking for some help with this issue. In September, I called Orange to terminate my contract, and asked for a PAC in order to transfer my number. I was given the usual "your account will be closed in 28 days" etc. However, I contined to be billed, I cancelled my DD until I could get the issue resolved. I wrote 2…

Hey guys, I keep getting calls from a number. I keep missing the call but this tends to happen between 11 and 12 at night. I did a google on the number and got nothing but I'm wondering if it's a scam or not? I have called it back and all that happens is, I get a sound like someone has picked up at the other end then a…

Morpeth Mobiles: RECOMMENDED
Not sure if this little firm has ever been mentioned on MSE before, but in view of the fact that mobile phones are such big business nowadays and if, like our family, you're conscious of the need to get a decent protective covering, then. . . We first dealt with Morpeth Mobiles years ago when they were first starting up.…

Siemens Washing Machine Repair
We bought a Seimen's washing machine with a free 10 year parts and labour guarantee four years ago. It was a bloody expensive machine despite trackiing a good discount from an internet supplier, but we'd gone through two wrecked cheaper machines and I had learned more about mending the bloody things than I ever wanted to…

Bank of England.
The Bank of England. A company so certainly eligible to be ranted about. The Bank of England Governor Mervyn King and his fellow Monetary Policy Committee rate setters must be either asleep at the wheel or got their snouts too deep in the money trough and oblivious to the financial woe they are causing and going to cause…

HELP! Woolworths and Samsung S400i Mobile
Hiya, I was hoping someone could please help me. I bought a samsung s400i phone from woolworths on the 15/10/06. I only noticed there was a fault with it a couple of weeks ago. The problem is that whenever I turn off my phone some numbers in my phone book get deleted. I called the number on the leaflet they gave me as it…

Dabs!
I meant to do this a while ago, but here goes: I bought (or rather, treated) myself to a new 19" widescreen TFT monitor from Dabs before Christmas. Could have bought a slightly discounted used one, but it had to be new. I had placed the order late in the day, at about 4pm. What a surprise it was when it arrived the very…

estate agents, higher solicitors fees: sequence homes and click conveyancing
Warning: be careful when using a solicitor (particularly Barnett’s) recommended by estate agents (particularly in the 'Sequence Homes' group) that you’re not paying through the nose! We are in the process of selling our house with an estate agent who is part of the 'Sequence Homes' group (they seem to include lots of…

Prompt response from Green & Blacks
I was v. impressed with the prompt response that I got from Green & Blacks when I found a small hard unidentifiable item in a bar of chocolate. It turned out to be a lump of hard caramellised sugar - not fatal or anything but I just didn't know what it could be. Within about 3 days of sending the item off, G&Bs had…

Calling Renault owners... Clio and others
:confused: I am on the brink of despair with my brand new Renault Clio and wonder whether anybody else has noticed the same problem I have, because I am getting nowhere with Renault UK. When it rains any more than just a really light drizzle, I am experiencing smears from the windscreen wipers that make it very hard to see…

Scales Express
I decided I wanted a set of all singing all dancing bathroom scales to help me in my new year's resolution to get healthy. After researching on the internet, I ordered from Scales Express who were the cheapest by a long way and only charged £2 delivery. I placed the order Wednesday lunchtime. I was amazed to get home…

Scam call.....
Just recieved a phone call from a guy claiming to be from Moneysupermarket.com asking for my OH. I thought it a bit strange as OH doesnt use that site and would always put his mobile number down and not the house number. Anyway, I googled the number and it came up from lots of other posts on other forums as a scam…

Leaving a tip electronically by debit/credit card.
Just thought I would post an interesting conversation that I had with a waitress in my local 'Frankie & Bennies' restaurant the other day. When paying with my debit card and the option came up to leave a tip with this payment I asked her if she would get the tip I left if I did it this way. She said no, that all tips left…
