Virgin media are STILL stealing from me.
:mad: And won't listen. Every month since september they are meant to take £20 for 2 services from them - every month they take anywhere from £38 to £79 from me. They haven't been sending me my bills either so I don't always know what they've taken. I've had it with them, they are in effect stealing between £20 and £60 off…

HELP! Massive problem with Cineworld cinema tickets.
Ok, not a massive problem but I am £32.30 out of pocket and that is a lot of money to me. Two weeks ago I booked online 4 cinema tickets for Pirates of the Carribean through Cineworld. When I turned up at the cinema and went to collect them from the automated machine my booking was rejected. So I spoke to the 12 year old…

BENQ on-site warranty - useless!
I have a BENQ TFT monitor FP731 which has a 36 month on-site warranty. It went faulty the other day so I called the warranty helpline (10/10 to BENQ for having a geo. number) and gave all my details. They said that someone would call me back to organise a swap out. 2 days later I still havn't had a phone call so I ring the…

HP Camera - What can i do?
I bought a Hewlett Packard Camera on 13/6/06 that included a 12 month warranty, it went wrong in less than a month and they sent me a new one. Now that has gone wrong (exactly the same fault) and they refuse to do anything. They say that a replacement only carries 3 months warranty. That would make it that i only had 4…

Beneficial Credit Card Customer Services are excellent!
I don't generally visit this section of MSE but I have to say that having now arranged three end to end balance transfers via Beneficial's call centre in India that the customer service I have received each time has been really excellent. The person answering the call has in each case been able to 1) Make me smile within…

Tesco dumped my shopping and ran!
So much for their ads telling you they more or less put it away in the fridge for you. This week, when my Tesco grocery delivery arrived early for the umpteenth week running (despite NUMEROUS complaints from me resulting in promises that they wouldn't/would phone) they added insult to injury by unloading my shopping on the…

orange reserve tank !!!
Hi, I dunno if anyones posted this but I'm really miffed about Orange not disclosing the T&C on this 'new' service. They plug it as access to an extra £2.50 credit when you need it and then you pay it back the next time you top-up, which in itself is reasonable idea. What they don't tell you is that the first time you come…
