On July 16 I used Quidco to sign up to AVIVA car insurance -with the deal showing as 45 per cent cashback and potentially an extra £30 for a new policy, as per the screenshot (which I cannot post!!!) My policy was £300 - much more than I could have got elsewhere, but with the Quidco cashback it came in at a more…

T Mobile
6 months into an 18 month contract, the screen on my phone decided to start playing up. I took it into the store where I got it from. The assistant had a quick look at it and said didnt think it would be a problem getting it fixed as it looked like a fault with the phone rather than something I had done to it, and arranged…

Ann Summers Refund... Not impressed.
Just a warning really. I ordered some things in the sale on the 4th July, they arrived fine, paid by debit card. Most of the items weren't suitable, so I sent them back the next day, keeping two of the items. Fair enough, presuming they would just refund my card in due course. Almost forgot about it! When I remembered I…

Praise for Sky
Over the last few days we've had real trouble with our Sky, the signal was terrible, a lot of channels were just blue-screening and sometimes the box wouldn't power up properly. Phoned Sky and told them the problem to which they sent an engineer out to us for nothing, with a new box even though ours is out of warranty…

Barclays Rant
Opened two savings accounts with them last week, the woman wouldn't leave me go until I had opened them and even though I didn't have my ID on me she still insisted we went through it and even followed me home so she could get it. Should have known then that things were going to go wrong. Anyway, I agreed to put 1k in one…

Giffgaff order confirmation email. Scam?
Hi Not sure if this is in the right forum or not. Received an email on 30/07/10 saying I'd ordered a giffgaff SIM. Looked up the company and they are a mobile SIM card company. I'd never heard of them and definitely not ordered a SIM card from them. Thought maybe someone had signed up and put wrong email in but the email…

Praise for HMV

On Saturday I purchased a copy of the Alan Pownall CD from the HMV in Basingstoke's Festival Place, on arriving home I discovered that instead of a copy of the album disc I had 2 copies of the live 'bonus' disc. So today I went to my…

PCWorld incompetency can save you money !

Three years ago, I bought a flat-screened monitor from PCWorld for approximately £150.
