Daily Mail Subscription Rise
Since March I signed up to Daily Mail Subscription at £10.40 per month. The last 2 months they have been taking £16.41. When I contacted them: Didn’t you get the letter – NO We were giving you 50% off, but were making no money, so now we are giving you 25% off. Aren’t you happy with a 25% discount – NO I would suggest that…

verbaudets deceiving e-mails
I registered with Verbaudet a couple of weeks ago but had not placed an order. I received 2 emails in the same 24 hours, both offering me £15 off a £20 spend, one offered a free gift and free delivery also. Small print states free delivery is only over £60, which all customers receive, so no "offer" there. I put a coat for…

Tesco staff praise
I just wanted to praise the member of Tesco till staff that went out of her way to save me money today :T I popped in to buy a couple of items and noticed their sleepwear was on offer, 3 for 2. Selected my items and went to the tills. The lady on the till spent a couple of minutes hunting around for a voucher she'd seen…

Friend in distress scam
You may all be aware of this scam, but it came as a bit of a shock to me. Opened my emails today to find one from a friend I'd met in the States in the summer. The email said - to summarise - that she'd been mugged in Madrid and that she needed funds urgently. Could I wire funds to her via Western Union. Initial reaction…

Missing post/postman
Have had no flipping post all week. Waiting for a few important things too! There are letters from HMRC, the bank (including a new debit card) and various other places, all of whom have assured me letters were sent 1st class last week. I'm also waiting for some glucose tolerance test results to come through that I was told…

Facebook changes - a feature too far?
The latest round of changes at Facebook seem to have some users jumping up and down (given that it's free to join and free to use it does make me laugh when the complain about it). Are the new changes a feature too far? Have they lost sight of what the end users want? Are they too concerned with how to make that monster of…

Sainsbury's
I want to praise the company, I have noticed recently that the "once" expensive supermarket has now became one of the most competitive. Today when I was in store they are now running an offer where you can have four main meal deals i.e Indian/ Chinese curries & pizza's & 2 side orders which can be a starter and a dessert…

Tesco poor level of customer care
I just returned from shopping at my Local Tesco. The level of customer service was shoddy at best and not for the first time. Description of events After walking up and down the frozen isle in Tesco, I noticed an in store promotional poster, which stated: “Buy at least £10 worth of frozen food and get 5p off a litre of…

Leappad Explorer - is it on offer at Toys R us?
I know it says at bottom, selected items but does showing them in the picture imply they are in the offer?

The Hut Problems.
Just thought I'd see if anyone else is having problems with thehut.co.uk recently? I've been using them for a couple of years with no real problems. I'm aware that they have several different sites (IWOOT, Asda, Zavvi, sendit etc.) and I've honestly been fine with them all before now. Here's my problem: Last week I placed…

BBCosmetics.co.uk ? Anyone used / recommended them ?
Afternoon all. Has anybody heard of, or used the above website ? The website looks quite 'swish' and legit, but it also looks fairly new and there is a lack of contact details on there Their payment system doesn't seem to be secure either. Any feedback would be greatly appreciated. Cheers.

I am a regular customer of John Lewis, and buy a lot of clothing and shoes there. I primarily use their Norwich store, which is in the process of being totally revamped. I went in yesterday to find the ladies shoe department had moved to a different place, and very swish it looks too! I saw some shoes I really liked, made…

What's wrong with CEX - do they really care ???
Hello.... I think I am going to regret placing an online order with CEX. My order status has gone from 'Order Picking in progress' to 'Order Picking completed' back to 'Order Picking in progress, in the last few days. No reply to email.

Tesco opticians misleading pricing
They say that you can have two pairs of spectacles for £65, fair enough, you can. They go on to say that, for an extra £10, you can have tinted lenses in one pair, you cannot. They refuse to supply tinted lenses without UV protection lenses, and these cost an extra £10. The optician said that it was against the law to…
