Check your address occasionally if you're with Natwest
Just wanted to warn people to periodically check their address if you bank with Natwest (I don't know if this applies to other banks), especially if you live in an area where mail occasionally gets mis-delivered. Apparently, they have a policy that if a letter is returned to them undelivered (or if someone posted it back…

YouGov deducting points when you take surveys
YouGov deducted 50 points off me for taking part in a prize draw survey - apparently it's so they can offer bigger prizes. However, it seems to have a completly illogical process - collect points by taking surveys which you can then use to take more surveys, which by taking part in you might win a prize. If you could…

Beware ViewPoint Balconies
:mad: A WARNING to anyone doing business with Viewpoint Balconies, Rochdale [TEXT DELETED BY FORUM TEAM]. We paid £620 for a balcony back in August 2010 - by cheque as they dont accept credit cards.

More Tesco praise
Always nice to have some good news! I did an online shop with Tesco a couple of weeks ago and as I was putting it away I realised that I had forgotten to use the extra points vouchers that I was sent with my Clubcard statement recently. I was really annoyed as I had actually purchased the qualifying products, so I e-mailed…

Autoglass?
My OH has a chip on her windscreen & she's quite wisely decided to phone Autoglass to get the chip repaired. So she phoned them up & they've said the chip isn't big enough for them to come out. Now their advert says if you see a chip no matter how small tell them & they'll come out before the chip becomes a crack. So now…

Argh busses!
OK, I'm NOT complaining about the busses - well one I am, but I'm just having a rant, no need to reply. Basically, I had a training course to go on yesterday for 9.30am, and I left my house at 6.55am to catch the 7.08am bus outside my house. Thought I'd wait there longer than needed because I didn't want to miss it and be…

Clarks outlet praise
A week ago I took my son for his new school shoes and tried many on but as he's 13 and size 9.5 he couldn't make up his mind what style he liked. He wasnt sure what his mates wore but the young male shop assistant directed him towards 3 or 4 different styles. He eventually, after moaning and groaning, decided on a slip on…

Complain by email or phone?
Earlier tonight I found a plaster in a tin of Heinz soup and want to let them know about it. I'm not looking for any compensation or anything like that (after all it's only a 80p tin of soup). I do think they should be made aware of it though as it wasn't even one of the blue plasters I thought anyone preparing food needed…

Found a debit card
Why are Santander such !!!!!!? I found a debit card today. Rang santander, the issuer, to tell them. I asked if they'd contact the card holder to let him know. Save the panic, help him manage the situation. Y'know, not wake up in the morning and realise he can't buy breakfast, a train ticket, petrol etc. Even get a jump on…

Damaged Car
Just a quick vent about the tw*t that has scuffed and dented the side of my car in the Sainsburys car park today and just drove off without leaving any details. Now I have a nice black line down the side of my lovely white car :mad: Its quite high up on the car so must have been a 4x4 or a people carrier. Wouldn't have…

Email Addy - Next CEO
Hi Hoping someone on here can help me in my plight to find an email address for the CEO at Next or someone of similar importance. I have emailed their normal complaints advisors and they just dont seem to be bothered on actually fixing the problem, which they said would take a few days, that being a week and a half ago and…

Need To Do Something. But what?
About 2 months ago my mum had a new front door fitted by her local council. Apparently all council property's are getting them. The door is lovely. But my mum is unable to lock it when she goes out, resulting in her having to leave it unsecure. The door is a really strange door. You have to close it and physically lock it…

Hi everyone, I'm looking for any sort of advice that might help us to stop this scam from happening to anyone else. My Father in law has been chatting to a woman online for the last 12 months and over this time he has been sending her 'financial help' for 'medical bills' in Cyprus to the tune of approx £30k. She claims to…

Tapcentre.com - anyone dealt with them before
Bought a tap from this company a few weeks ago, card has been charged and the item hasn't yet been despatched. There is no phone number that I can find that actually gets you through to speak to someone and their email support may as well not exist. I'm going to sort out a chargeback tonight as I'm fed up of trying to deal…

Just a note to warn any potential customers of Xavier Footwear Limited, of 3a Tardebigge Court, Hewell Lane, Redditch B97 6QW, that it has gone into voluntary liquidation. We do not know whether there are any assets. This is very unfortunate for my 86-year-old mother-in-law, who commenced County Court proceedings against…
