The Time Traveler's Wife book - pages missing!
Hey there everyone, I do apologise if this is in the wrong section, I wasn't quite sure where to put it as I guess it's in part a warning and in part a query. I bought a copy of The Time Traveler's Wife the other day from HMV and was really getting into it, so imagine my anger when I got to page 58 and found that the next…

Beware Technology Recycling Solutions
If you are thinking of purchasing a second hand computer DO NOT USE THIS COMPANY I foolishly ordered a computer before Christmas and although I thoroughly researched the computer I very stupidly did not research the company. I ordered on 11th December and this was acknowledged, after Christmas having had no communication I…

Praise for service in GAME
I was given some Game vouchers by my friends who have all clubbed together so I can buy myself a PS3 and a couple of games as i'm still stuck in the house quite a lot. I knew the basics about the PS3's but didn't know which was the best one to get for the vouchers I had been given. I told the assistant what I was looking…

Direct Debits and Fitness First-URGENT Help Please!
My daughter took out a subscription with Fitness First and then lost her job. She told them about it and they agreed to suspend the account. For good measure she cancelled the direct debits too (she was also paying for her mother too). However, in spite of all this they have continued to attempt to take direct debits…

School closures are snow joke
Hi folks, I'm lucky enough to live in an area that seems to have been spared the worst of the wintery weather over the last couple of days. Yesterday we had one heavy snow shower which lasted about an hour. The snow started to thaw pretty much instantly and although there is still some snow about the main roads etc are all…

Sorry, Home delivery network rant
Home delivery network apparently delivered a parcel to me today. Clearly, they didn't because the parcel was apparently left in the safe place at the rear of the house. The rear of the house is 140 feet away, backing a public car park. How does that make it a SAFE place?? But to make it even better, I have now spent 20…

Asda home delivery! Well done!
Earlier today was waiting for an interlink express delivery that didn't show. Reason was the weather. Fair enough, not quite sure what weather they meant as at the time there was no snow in West Cornwall and I drove the route the delivery driver took as the depot is near where I work and the roads were completely fine.…

Major praise for AA!
Stupid stupid me left my lights on when I went into work this morning. To be fair, my car usually 'beeps' when I open the door with the light on, but this didn't happen this morning, hence a flat battery when I left work! Called the AA and they stated that they would send someone for me - this was at roughly 3.10pm. Got a…

Mesh - court case. What is / is not allowed?
After having a refund for a PC agreed by Mesh and PC returned in Sep, they neglected to actually make the refund. I enquired what had happened in the week before Xmas (thought I must have missed it on a bank statement). They had simply ignored the "refund" part of the refund. There has been no reason given (nor apology)…

Avoid Toto's Restaurant In Bury Unless You Have Lots Of Spare Time
On Sunday my wife and myself decided to go for something to eat rather than getting a take-away as planned. We were staying over at my mum's in Bury, Lancs so we decided to walk round to the local Italian restaurant called Toto's (Used to be San Rocco). We've been quite a few times in the past when it was San Rocco and the…

Help/ stress with home insurance claim
Hope this is the correct forum for this? Our integrated cooker packed up in November, it's 5 years old (we've lived in the house for 2 years). We pursued a claim with home insurance, which went something like this: November: Phoned up, told to arrange our own repair. If it cost more than the excess (£100), insurance would…

Praise for Sainsbury's and Iansyst
I own a 360, and I happen to enjoy playing Assassin's Creed. I know the second game came out not too long ago, so, me being me, I went and bought it last week, only getting round to playing it today. Well, I would have played it, if it worked! Put it in and all the 360 was doing was saying there was an error and the disc…
