Scam trying to involve warmfront
My father who is disabled was very nearly taken in by a scam recently. There is a company going around who are saying they are a part of Warm front and saying they are there to install either cavity wall insulation or loft insulation, and of course charge hundreds of pounds for doing this. My fathers next door neighbour…

Thanks Tesco
Well done Tesco. Bought a combi microwave a few months ago. Just last week, the door catch broke so the interlock wont close. However no reciept, had thrown it away. Packaged it back up and took it to the Crawley store. Came out 5 minutes later with a full cash refund. Wasnt expecting that, many many thanks.

Home Delivery Network (HDNL) [not] collecting on behalf of Argos
I have a tale of woe and a friend suggested that I name and shame the people responsible here. I have a faulty DVDR/VCR combi that I purchased from Argos, which they have agreed to have collected for a full refund (it was originally delivered to me rather than picked up in store). It was booked for collection today -…

Quidco v Topcashback. Ethics
Got an email from TopCashback today saying that following the receivership of DGM* that left many potential users without their cashback, they will be honouring them all. I emailed Quidco with this info to ask if they would do likewise (I am owed £105 via the DGM fiasco) and got a feeble reply stating that it was 'out of…

Tesco Online Book Sales - Useless
I placed an order for 3 books on Sunday 26th September with Tesco Books and paid using clubcard vouchers, the website cancelled 2 items for some reason virtually straight away (although they are still on sale at the same price) so I cancelled the whole thing. The website still shows the order as pending cancellation even…

Not Using Direct Debit
Not sure if this goes in this section I pay my mobile phone bill either online or by phone by debit card. But because I don't use Direct Debit they charge me £2.98 for not doing so. They don't even send me a paper bill, because I check it online. It annoys me each month and feel that I am being made to pay for…

What would you do?
Please bare with this, I know it's a bit long but I need help. I got my drive way concreted over by two cowboy builders (one of them is/was my "mate" who recommended this guy to do it) and they screwed it up by adding a thin layer of concrete, so thin that it could be kicked with your shoe and you would put a hole in it!!…

JTM Services - Service agent for LG
Contacted this company on the recommendation of LG appliances. If you are going to use them do check that parts are available for your appliance before you pay their £72.50 call out fee.

How to save many £1000s and hundreds of hours
Recognise a gold digger early and run like the wind. Normally I would say run to the other side of the world but that would be costly and time consuming. Unfortunately I have become very cynical about women that have little to their name other than a job and rented accommodation. They are usually looking for some poor…

Tesco Opticians
I know to a lot of people all things connected with tesco are the work of the devil but I've just had a great experience with Tesco opticians. I wear day and night monthlies from them and knew that I was due a sight test before I could get my next lot. I was convinced that I had 1 pair left and therefore hadn't booked a…
