Praise for Aroma Home
Hi all - I had a lovely pair of cute slipper for Christmas from the in-laws. I've already worn them to death and was quite disappointed that they lasted such a short period of time.

Homebase own brand stuff - what a rip off
My shower riser was split and needed urgent replacement; it's a Mira and would take a week to order a new one so I trotted down to the local Homebase thinking anything would be better than nothing. Thing is you can't just buy the riser because then the holder won't fit and if you change the holder the shower head won't fit…

Still not received anything so logged back in today. No sign whatsoever of any refund having been initiated, just the same credit balance & a…

Rant: Barclays' fraud protection

I need to pay off one of my loans in full, but first I had to transfer some money between my Barclays, Abbey and First Direct accounts. The sums…
