On line discounts
I would like to know how it is possible to take advantage of online discounts when I choose not to have debit/credit card (they made for too much debt in the past), some stores say that you can go into the shop and the discounts apply but haven't been succesful anywhere yet! Thanks

Issues with training company deposit
At the beginning of last year I was looking for a change in career and researched a few training companies - the sort of places that offer week long courses in particular subjects at their training centre. I found one and hadn't read any nasty reviews about them anywhere, so trusted them. I sent off a £150 deposit for one…

Deceptive advertising
I went into Woolworths today after reading one of Martin's Money tips which says in bold type "50% off Woolworths", so naturally thinking everything was 50%, I spent my £5:00 on travel and went to Wollies. As I approached the store I seen the same big bold advertisements "50% OFF ALL STOCK", so I went about my shop. After…

Great service…

Me and my mum were in one of the Phones4U stores in Hull on wednesday. A female member of staff came up to us as soon as we had stepped throught the door and asked if she could help, we said we were happy just looking thanks (because we were more than happy looking on our own). We walked around the store and quickly…

Grattan have just done me.
I bought an item that was a special price from Grattan a couple of years ago. That was the only reason I had an account with them. Anyway, for one reason or another, I ended up overpaying and my account was in credit by £15. I never bought anything else and I was happy to just leave the credit sat there, I figured I'd find…

Dyno rod - Horrible job well done
Probably the worse kind of job in the world. Yesterday found that there was a blockage in my drain, couldn't clear it, and resorted to the above. I've used them (the Dyno brand) for lock replacement, so it seemed sensible to go with the brand again. Guy turned up within an hour, did things with my drains up to his armpit,…
