Praise for an energy company!!
I am a dual fuel customer with EDF. 3 months ago i had a letter from them telling me that I was entitled to a massive refund of £8 something as a discount for being dual fuel. I didnt get it, and when I spoke to them on Tuesday evening, they said they'd send a cheque out. It arrived today! Its not the amount of money, but…

Aqualisa Showers - compliment
Very rare I compliment, but my digital processor on my shower went belly up this week. I assume the shower is past the warranty (was there when I moved it) A quick look on ebay say the processors changing hands for over £300 so I rang Aqualisa. They wanted to change £255 to supply it, I asked about fitting and they said…

Naked Wines - lack of customer service
:mad: I have used Naked wines for 18 months or so, and have found them really friendly and really enjoyed the wine. Back in February, I changed payment date to 10th of the month which was more convenient, and this was duly actioned until May when they decided to take it on the first. This left me a few quid short for a…

Council snooping on my drinking habits (matter resolved - its a scam!)
We have alternative weekly bin collections, with a separate container that is for glass. This is collected every other week. Recently we have celebrated my wife's birthday and one of our children's birthdays. We had 20 or so people around for each so consequently the glass bin is very full of wine and beer bottles. We get…

It was supposed to be delivered the next day (next day delivery) but it still has not arrived yet. I emailed them countless of times, and called them but no one ever answer the phone.

Buyagift experience vouchers...
Does anyone else think Buyagift or experience vouchers in general are a rip-off?!

Beware of ring pull cans!
May I just ask the members of the forum what seems to be a strange question? Have you had problems with the new style ring pull cans especially corned beef ones?

No, it is NOT a typo! Please, please, please... if you need to sell your car, please don't try selling it through these guys... I have an old banger.

Tescos Praise!!!
Unusual to praise the place, but credit where credit is due! I went to cook some mince the other day, and noticed it had an 'odd' odour, got the packet back out of the bin to discover the USE BY date was actually on the day I bought it and this was three days later. I wrote a grumpy (but polite) email having a whinge about…

Warning: Shopper Discounts and Rewards .co.uk
Take care: There's a cashback website, in my case linked to Ryanair, that promises you £15 cash back, but then signs you up to a £10 a month membership fee without making it clear that you are doing so. It took me 4 months before I realised, thus costing me £40!!! Credit card company claim they can't stop it. You have to…

One in perticuar that relly gets on my nerves, where you end up paying over 2000% APR. Then they give you a discount code that a total of 25% off. Sorry can't give you a name but can't think what they are called off the top of my head.

It certainly is lagging behind the modern day spa and I can think of many better places to go next time!! Royal Tunbridge Spa, Alexander House and Utopia Spa and even the Aqua Sana Spa at Center Parcs is fantastic This…
