Currys...aaarrgghhh! (Update...more aarrgghh)
Over 5 weeks ago I ordered a top of the range Sony 'big' telly. Payment was taken for it straight away. Order confirmation indicated delivery would be within 4 weeks.

Barclays Home Insurance
Blimey they have got me angry! Woke up 2 Saturday's ago to the sound of raindrops falling on my skylight. Oddly, the sound got louder as I went downstairs, and I walked into the living room to find water pouring in through the ceiling!! Got the buckets out, but the leather suite and carpet were already drenched. Knocked on…

British Gas - again !
Last year I kept getting red payment reminders from British Gas before I had even received a bill. I phoned and complained and they said they would sort it out. Well. I haven't had any more red reminders - in fact no bills either - just a letter from firm of debt collectors in Glasgow !!! British Gas, you are absolutely…

topcashback unfair rip off
:mad:I am furious. I signed up to topcashback last august following the idea that Martin sent on the email about getting £25 worth of car rescue cover for only £5. Well I just assumed that it would have been credited to my account but it hasn't. When I queried it, inspite of the fact that the site registeredthat I had…

The Council and my dustbin
To supposedly save the environment, our council have decided to only empty our dustbins once every two weeks, with recyclable material being collected on the other weeks. Our dustbin day is Monday. As this was a bank holiday, the dustmen did not work. Logic states that the bin may be emptied on Tuesday, but this is not the…

No Bevin Boys' medals for the families of deceased men
I think this is shameful. The Government are issuing medals for Bevin Boys. The average age of the surviving men is 80 plus. But if you are a widow or a child of a Bevin Boy then your family member's war effort is not being recognised and you cannot apply for a medal for your late husband or father. They say it is a…

Rangemaster Cooker
I bought a Rangemaster Classic 110 cooker last summer. There are 8 brass coloured knobs on the front. 5 of these have come unglued and fall off every now and then. I have glued them on but can't be using the right glue as they fall off again. Then one fell off and I stepped back on it and dented it. :mad: I wrote to…

Possible scam to get CC details???
Have just had the strangest phone call.. from Sky. Have been a sky customer for nearly 9 years and never had a call from them. The caller 'claimed' my repair policy for my sky+ box had expired and asked what I proposed to do about it? I told him that I had not received a letter recently and that our cover was on rolling…

ebuyer have taken my money but now tell me it is out of stock
I placed an order earlier in the week for some computer parts, one of which was a graphics card. I chose it because there were plenty in stock, ordered it, and they took my money out, but when they have come to pick it, they tell me it's out of stock. The thing that infuriates me is that they are selling stock that is…

motmax
Looks like a fairly new thing, not sure if places like it are else where in the country. But basically they just do MOT's, nothing else. It was fantastic, booked the car in yesterday for 9:40am today and it took 40mins to test, it passed, thank god. But i loved the idea as we waited in the lounge for it to be done and if…
