Tesco short changed us....
We have just been to Tesco. OH gave the girl £20 and she gave him change for £10. He queried it straightaway (she clearly wasn't that interested). She then called over the manager. All we could do was leave our name and address and we have to ring them tomorrow afternoon. Really annoyed. Currently £10 out of pocket. Does…

Phones4u insurance - "No, I just want to cancel please!"
These people are a joke! I accept that it is their job to persuade you to keep the insurance, and the call centre people are just doing what they are told to do, but they really shouldn't be allowed to make it so difficult. I made it clear from the start of the call that I just wanted to cancel, and I'd heard all the…
