Vent: Council Workmen wrecking the place!

Dixons customer service
Long story but I ordered and prompty cancelled an order with Dixons. Anyway, they decided to deliver anyway (only DD at home so wouldn't have known to refuse). We waited in all day yesterday for pick up and no-one turned up. When I phoned I was totally fobbed off and told that someone 'might' still come but the traffic is…

Praise: Apple Store
Long story short; wife decided to put my iPhone 4 in the washing machine. Took it into the Apple store in the Arndale, Manchester. Seen quickly and efficiently, advised it would be £139 for a replacement phone (which was fine, as it was clearly my fault and obviously wouldn't be covered by a warranty) but as a gesture of…

Beware of Virgin Media changing things!!
We had a Virgin Media engineer out last week to replace our V+ box which I praised with the speed it had all been done. Whilst the engineer was tuning the new box in he told us that we were on a old telephone code on his system and he just needed to change it to a new one. We didn't think anything of it until today. We…

Vent - gas works blocking driveway >:(
There have been roadworks happening in our road since well before Easter... on and off that is, since they regularly seem to down tools and leave it festering for days on end.

One of the 10£ notes I got was damaged and a shop refused to accept it. It seems like it has been through the washing machine or…

"Scam" Clothing Collections
Just had two bags stuffed through my letter box for unwanted clothing. They appear to have been delivered by the same person. Neither of them was a name that I knew - so did a bit of Googling. 1. "Troop Aid" does appear to be a genuine charity - although the bags are distributed and collected by a commercial organisation…
