Morrisons toilet paper.....con!
I usually buy Morrisons value toilet paper as it's only £1.22 for twelve rolls and your finger doesn't go through it:p. Well, went yesterday and they have changed it and it's now four rolls with a message saying 'larger rolls - twice the size of our previous rolls. The price...? £1.20, so that's 2p cheaper for the…

Warning: Have you noticed street lights being dimmer?
Hi there, I'm not sure if this is the right category or not so forgive me if it's wrong but I thought I should maybe post and see if this is something that's affected anyone else? I may be wrong, but I could swear the street lights where I am are a lot dimmer than they used to be and when I came home tonight, I found I…

Milk and More - utter rubbish
So I signed up with Milk and More a couple of months ago, and originally was having milk bread, soft drinks and a veg box delivered. First two delivery dates for the veg box, they sent the wrong one, a salad one the first time and one with fruit in the second time. I called and complained both times, and they didn't offer…

Vent... car accident claim!
So, apparently I had a car accident in August 2008. In September 2009 the company who employs the driver I supposedly hit send me a letter from their solicitors threatening to take me to court if I don't immediately pay. (This is the first point that I am aware that I've had an accident!) I told my insurance company and…

Praise - people in general
I saw a heart warming sight today. In our town centre there is usually a small group of people trying to get others to sign a petition on this topic or that. They usually find it hard to interest people, just getting the odd signature now and again. Today, the pitch was crowded with people waiting to sign one of the three…

I've lost all faith in Royal Mail.
Hi there, I'm probably not the first to complain about Royal Mail but I feel that I should definitely say something about the appaling standards of service I've been receiving for a longtime. There are so many examples of what's wrong with the service I could list and yet it wasn't always like this, until a few years ago…

Misdescribed item bought from Amazon
I'm not sure if this should be in consumer rights or not. I bought an iPod touch just over a year ago and only found out when I went to upgrade the Apple software that I had a 2nd Generation instead of a 3rd Generation. Has anyone else had similar issues and what response did they get from the seller when a complaint was…

Santander (UK) Plc - AGAIN!
I've just been charged overdraft fees by Santander for being nearly £27 overdrawn over two days at the beginning of June. Not worthy of a rant on here, you might say? Well, the reason why I slipped into the red on my current account was because a few days previously, Santander had frozen my access to nearly twenty thousand…

Plumbworld charging me for their mistakes?
I have had an ongoing back and forth with Plumbworld for over two weeks now. To cut a very long story short; I ordered an item and paid for next day delivery. The item didn't turn up, after contacting Plumbworld and receiving nothing but standardized responses copied/pasted by a very unhelpful robot, the delivery finally…

Royal Mail sorry you were out
Come on what is going on? I was under the impression that you part with cash for a package to go from the sender to the recipent. Apparently not. I am now an unpaid employee of the post office because I have to collect my own parcels. The reason is because I live in a block of apartments. Apparently this has been agreed…

Post delivered to wrong street
Not really a vent or anything just more a question.... I know this has happened in the past too but the reverse as in my post has gone elsewhere. For some very odd reason there are two streets in my town with the same name - well actually its kind of the same street that goes on for 2 miles however each end of the 2 mile…

Magazine subscription cover prices
Question: What is peoples opinions on a magazine that shows the cover price on subscribed issues as more than the retail bought issues? Its not that much different but part of me thinks basing your "savings by subscribing" on a higher subscription cover price is slightly dishonest. For reference the company itself claims…

Flymo Cordless XT Product Recall
Bought a Flymo Cordless XT in May 11. On 2nd use the battery won't charge - 5 days later still not charged. Ring Flymo (or so I thought) - Guy on phone wants £57 for a new battery (Strimmer was £50). I rant he tells me to ring Flymo as they are an agent for them. Ring Flymo on the number he gave me - talk to a nice man who…

Freakin Grammar Police
Havent been on here for a long long time due to petty arguments, bullying and the FREAKIN GRAMMAR POLICE !!! Really, is there any need for it ?? Some people have difficulty with writing what they are trying to express. Some can't type very well therefore easier just to bash out their thoughts. But why why why do these…

Amazon - Is it worth making a complaint?
Last Wednesday (29/06/11) I ordered a DVD boxset from Amazon. As it was a gift for my sister, who's birthday was on Sunday 03/07/11, I paid for the 1st class postage and packaging. Usually I just go for the free super saver delivery, but I needed it quickly. I was given a tracking number and an estimated delivery date of…

Council tax
This is from 2004 but it will always be in my mind. My wife paid 3 council tax bills IN CASH (I know, I Know!) A few month later we received a letter to take us to court for £1000 unpaid. We checked all paperwork and sadly we only had recepts for 2 of the bills (smaller amounts). So we had no way to prove we paid the…
