You had to collect a dozen or so vouchers from the Daily Mail , obviously meaning you had to purchase the newspaper over a period of a couple of weeks.

Orange and Cartex are on my black list!
Cancelled Orange broadband on 3rd December to switch to Sky. "It takes 14 days to clear the line" and they still haven't cleared the line so Sky can connect us. I'm aware it was Christmas - but I'm currently putting in a complaint to Ofcom about them as they've said they will still charge us even though its been…

Item was advertised as being in "Hampshire" but the email stated that the console was actually in Manchester but could be posted via Special Delivery for an extra £6. I was…

They want me to pay a 'liability charge' of £995 by credit card first to show I am serious about selling which will be refunded to me in…

Buyagift.com
Hi I received an "experience" for a present from Buyagift.com. It was a Theatre & dinner for 2 experience. And what a great experience it was. Me and Mr SMF went to a west end show (a matinee) and had the "best" seats in the house - we expected to be in the Gods. There was just no hassle at all...everything worked just as…

Comet's 72 hour refund policy!!!
Can abody help me please? Short story - purchased a telly, doesn't work right, want a refund. Phoned Comet, they said I needed to have reported the fault within 72 hours of purchase, otherwise they insist on an engineer coming out (which is too inconvenient for me).

Hiya, we hit the shops today hoping to bag a few bargains. We went into Woollies and spotted a good coat for our 7 year old, it had been marked down from £19 to £2 but looking further the other same coats had been marked down from £19 to £12, someone had not put down the one infront of the two. Anyhow we thought we'd be…

The losers of Christmas 2007
I thought I'd start a losers of Christmas 2007 thread. I made a mistake and named it 2008 to begin with. It's the companies that let you down this Christmas. For me the biggest loser has to be IWOOT. Took them nearly 3 weeks to send out my items even though they were in stock. People who ordered weeks after me got their…
