Tip: Beware 3 for £5 at M&S
M&S have a 3-for-£5 offer on some deli items. However, if you take four such items to the till, then, regardless of which order they're scanned in, the till will always select the cheapest three when applying the discount. To get the best deal, pay for the dearest three separately. I imagine this applies at other stores,…

warning rosehip tablets
My OH had a phone call yesterday from a company who initially told him that they were conducting a health survey and were from a health centre. The caller sounded Indian but gave an Enjglish name. As he likes to wind callers up my OH played along and answered the questions, stretching the truth and making up some answers.…

Sports Direct
I recently purchased some shorts for my son from Sports Direct. The tag on them said 11 – 12 (his age). There are no changing facilities in the store so we just bought them. We get home, he tries them on and they are massive, nearly down to his ankles and his legs aren’t particularly short! Check the label inside the…

Bit of a rant about having to pay for delivery
We have been out to buy a new bed today. We have a fairly new memory foam mattress so just needed the bed frame. We shopped around and eventually found one that we wanted in Bensons For Beds that was in the sale and £100 cheaper than an identical one we'd seen elsewhere and it came with 2 free underbed storage drawers…

Vent:Not so Ideal World
Ideal world is driving me mad :mad: I bought an electric frying pan in March as I had sold my range cooker and was looking for something that could fry onions/ veg and brown meat before putting it into the crock pot. This seemed like the best option as it has a multi temp setting and was massive. It was only £22 so hardly…

CEX online
I ordered a sony ereader late last Sunday night. I got an email to say it had been shipped on Monday. It was advertised as next day delivery. It's finally arrived today, although I'm prepared to take them at their word and put the delay down to RM. However, it was poorly packaged, just inside two jiffy bags, which given…

Vent: If you want the picture to be 3D, switch the glasses on!
As someone who sells TVs, it is very frustrating when I'm serving somebody and see people shamble up to the 3D TVs, put the glasses on, and go "Oh, it doesn't work." How hard is it to use your eyes and notice that the glasses are "Active" not passive - it says so on the signs. The price of the glasses also shows that they…

Having used TOP CASH BACK to make several purchases, I am rather angry to find that no money has been paid for my significant purchases. I filed my claims and enquiries and the result today was this Hi there, Unfortunately it appears that your claim could not be approved. The comment that has been posted regarding this…

Do not get an Asda online delivery unless you want your money stolen!
Asda have charged me for £25.65 worth of items which were not delivered as part of my overall order. I have made hours worth of calls, and been constantly fobbed off, because the home shopping store manager, Simran, at Park Royal where my deliveries are from says I did get the items. I most definitely did not, and would…

247 spares wont help in getting a refund for faulty item
I recently purchased a used Mass Airflow Sensor (worth £70) using 247 spares for my car in Dec'10. When I received the item it seemed to be faulty. It came with a 3 months warranty so I returned it back to the Merchant (Midlandbm Ltd.-Birmingham). The Merchant confirmed receipt of the item in mid January and promised me…

Beware of thomas cook misinformation
I have taken many Thomas Cook package holidays and the one constant is the misinformation and downright lies you get if you are stupid enough to go to their welcome meetings.NEVER BOOK ONE OF THEIR TRIPS until you have had a quick check to see what you will pay by booking with a local booking agent nearby.In our experience…

SwapGame.com Dispute
I'll start by saying I find it astounding how bad the customer service is for what I thought was a big player in game rentals. Long story short I had an account for a few months, and in early Jan I returned a game and as you do, awaited the next dispatch. Now I received an email a few days later informing me I had wrongly…

Anyone a member of Which! online?
Trying to get a review of the Navman Moov 315M but they want me to sign up. Had a nightmare when I signed up for their 'free' trial and they continued to take money (Consumer Action - go figure!) and I do not really want to do that again. I someone is, could you PM me the review. Naughty I know but they should not make it…

Now it started off ringing maybe once a day, then I…

Reserving items at Argos
Hi, I've just got off the phone to Argos customer services as I queried an issue that I've come across twice in the last couple of weeks. In the first instance I'd reserved a camera from their website. It was selling at £80.90. However, when I went into store to collect (using my reservation number) they attempted to…
