Mobiles4U...
Have started bugging me again. If you get a call from 01792862544 then ignore it as it's these guys. As soon as I realised who it was I hung up, but I'd already dropped my laptop and broke a nail as I tried to answer my phone... They even got it wrong... I'm on an 18 month contract, not a 12 month one, suckers!!

Praise be!!!!
|I would like to praise the shop assistant who served me in Tesco today. I bought some clothes along with my shopping and she had a £5 off voucher in her pocket that she let me have.

Problem with Amazon returns: anyone else?

Received an email today from them to say that they will be refunding me £237.06, when the PS3 cost £279.99. As it's 8 months ago, I can't remember the details of the transaction exactly but I think that the discrepancy in what…

What a con!
I recently paid a visit to this "Praise, Vent & Warnings" forum. I have to say I feel decidedly short-changed. Most of the material in the forum tells of negative experiences entirely of the author's own making. Correspondents seem to be perpetually incapable of reading Terms & Conditions; or feeling absolutely compelled…

Daily Mail "free" freeview box offer
collect 60 tokens until November and pay the postage (doesn't say how much that might be!) or 10 tokens and £17.99 (again the going rate for a box) or pay £24.99 without tokens! what gets me really annoyed is that come 2012 and probably before that there will be companies that will give away freeview boxes for nothing just…

I used the the 30 day trial and after a few days they sent me a email with a code for £10 off Love Film (rentals or shop) and I tried using it, but am unsure whether it worked or not. It said a code had been added, but when i confirmed the order the…

Company pretending to be T-mobile
