Royal Mail- Royal bl**dy screw up!
I posted some important documents on Mon 19th, sent them recorded delivery. I've never had any problems using this service before, so didn't think that I would this time. The documents are not so much valuable, but they contain info regarding my dissertation that needs to be authorised by a guy that may allow me to conduct…

I checked my online bank account this evening and saw a payment taken out for £11.97 on the 23rd of February. It was from Tesco Jersey. I couldn't remember ordering anything recently so I looked at my Tesco online account, and my last order with them was on the 9th of November 2006. I ordered quite a few dvd's and cd's for…

Tesco Extra Clubcard Points - Misrepresentations and breaches of contract
Hello all, Just a warning whenever thinking of signing up for a Tesco service or deal based on extra clubcard points. On more than one occasion I have found these points are not added.

Argos Substitutions?
I reserved an Lindam stair gate online yesterday and went to the store to collect. Imagine how I felt when I got home, over an hour later, to find that I had been given a different make. Now correct me if I am wrong, but if I order a particular item that's what i expect to be in the box.

Wimpy (mis)pricing
Visited Wimpy in a service area yesterday. My boyfriend and I generally order a meal deal and an extra burger, we then share the chips and the drink. While waiting to order yesterday, I worked out if it made any difference which burger we added the meal deal to - and, surprisingly, it did - by £1.40. So my boyfriend…
