Well Done ASDA
On Saturday, 19th I got some online shopping from ASDA. Because of the tripe weather-they were couple of hours late, and had called to tell me so. I got a free delivery voucher AND the cost of delivery refunded onto my card. Fast forward to Wednesday 23rd December and waiting for my Christmas shopping. It came on time-but…

Sainsbury's checking IDs
Went into Sainsbury's the other day to buy a bottle of wine and some other things for a friend's dinner party. The girl at the till refused to sell me the wine because I didn't have any ID on me. I'm 29. I look 29. I understand that there are people who look a lot younger than their age. I'm not that lucky. You would have…

It shows two men seducing one woman implying a threesome scenario Even my 21 year old daughter thinks its wrong to show the ad Anyone else offended ? or am I behind the times As a middle aged hetrosexual woman I'm sure i'm now a minority :rotfl:

Big praise with little vent for Ocado this year.
I was going to have a Christmas delivery on the 21st from Ocado, no delivery happened obviously because of the snow. Called that evening and organise a redelivery for the 28th. They gave me back my delivery fee + another of their call centre person reinbourse me £10 on top of that. So at the end I had £20 back from my…

Go Compare Ad's
I'm interested to know what people think about the current advert for the go compare website. I personally hate them with a passion and can't even listen to them. I will never use their service as a result of these irritating ads. So the questions are am I an unreasonable miserable git? or are they truly hateful?

Parent and child parking
I'm annoyed! These parking spaces should be for people with SMALL (ie:young) children and the signs should be more specific. I have just, for the billionth time, had to struggle getting my baby in and out of the car and seen parents with bloody teenagers using these spaces. Grrrrr. Hey-ho, before anyone else says it, i…

When a pint isn't a pint?!
I will name and shame now as I am bloody sick of it. Bacchus Bar in Birmingham. Great place, fab decor, very quiet, but they have this one annoying rip-off going on that I've just had enough of (having suffered it today, and noticed it before a few times, and got into a big argument about it this evening). They have the…

Really annoyed at Woolworths and Littlewoods
I have been refused for a shopping account with both Woolworths online and Littlewoods online. The Woolies one happened just before Christmas and Littlewoods happened today. Being paranoid about ID fraud etc, I subscribed to Experian and checked my account and there was nothing unexpected at all. I have a small mortgage…

Tesco & their staff are brilliant
I realise a lot of people like to bash Tesco but I always find them really helpful. I buy some of our shopping at small, local shops and stalls. The rest I buy at Tesco and certain bits at Lidl. Sometimes I take a disabled person and the Tesco staff cannot be faulted for their offers of help etc. Fetching wheelchairs,…

Argos price fluctuations
The first week in December I bought a Philips 7380 shaver from Argos for £43, the normal retail price was claimed to be £89 so it seemed a good deal. About a week later I saw a Comet advertisement for the same model at £34, checked the Argos price and it had gone up to £58. Returned the item to Argos and purchased from…

Unfortunately they didnt but I thought I would contact customer services and ask…

Severn Trent have seriously impressed me!
I have a water meter so am charged for the water I actually use. (If you live on your own, get one as it will save you loads.) In November, an engineer called to say my metre was reading incorrectly. He fixed it and advised me to query my next bill as the old meter's readings were too high. My bill was 3 times the usual…
