Amazon - a bit irritating
More of a rant than anything. I bought an item last week from Amazon the day after the item went down in price. Now the item finally turned up today (5 days later), i am in the situation where if I send the item back to Amazon(its unopened), claim a full refund and then reorder the item then it will cost less than just…

So I waited, saw him down the street with my neighbour, when he came back he said, "the parcel's not yours, it belongs down the street". I asked him if I could see the parcel and it was addressed to someone in the…

Sony Erricsson phone from Tesco
I bought a W595i from Tesco in August using my doubled up clubcard vouchers. Initially the phone was fine ( I'm talking about a couple of weeks) but then I found the battery needed recharging every 3/4 days - even though I hardly make any calls myself and the phone is used only for emergencies and a few incoming calls.…

TV Licence wont refund the whole amount dispite their error
Gah! I moved house a couple of months ago, and moved my licence accordingly (there was only a week left, but I figured I'd paid for it!). When that licence expired, my partner purchased a new licence. However, despite us having a valid licence at our new address, TV licencing sent me a threatening reminder to renew my…

Praise - Evans Cycles
Back in March, I bought a Dahon folding bike. I'd used it 5 days a week since apart from the odd holiday. In September I turned a corner when the handlebars suddenly folded and I fell off. I pushed it back to the local branch and they arranged for it to be repaired under warranty. A few weeks later the same part failed…
