Halifax Faster Payments.
Got to say blumming brilliant. My grandson lives in Winchester, no family around. He lost his wallet with cards in, driving license, EHIC card. Luckily only a couple of quid in it. Santander wouldnt give him any money over the counter so he rang me absolutely desperate, no money till his new pin comes. Halifax had some…

Warehouse contact address?
I've had all sorts of problems with Warehouse this week over a parcel that was 'guaranteed delivery for Monday' (which I still don't have and resulted in a last minute shopping trip on my half day to try and get an outfit for Saturday). I'd like to write and complain but I can't find any address to do so? I did find an…

Debenhams rant (online).
Okay so this is too early to be complaning but I need to vent!!! Ordered a sale item from Debenhams on Wednesday morning for store collection (yes I should have checked MSE first and seen a free home delivery code :o ). Had to order without registering as the site was having technical issues. I registered afterwards anyway…

BHS Customer Services Disgusting
I ordered something online from BHS yesterday and realised soon after that I had ordered it in the wrong colour (my mistake I know but it's a xmas present so got to get it right). I looked on the confirmation email they sent me and there was a customer services telephone number for on-line orders. So, thinking it would be…

Beware Tesco Offers.
Was in Tesco yesterday & bought a few things that were on offer. Seemed dear when I went to check out but that's just the way things are I thought. OH eagle eyed as ever checked the receipt & the offers were charged at the unreduced price. He was at customer services for ages as the staff wouldn't have it that they were…

Wilkinson's paint - product review
Well, 12 months on, here's the result of my field testing of Wilko primer, undercoat and gloss topcoat for wood. Lousy. All turned a nice cheesy yellow. Took a long time to dry and stank to high heaven too. I used Dulux on similar woodwork at the same time, and that dried faster, smelt less and is still brilliant white.…

Costco :)
Thought I'd just put in a good word for Costco as had a good experience of their refund policy last week. Went shopping there on a Friday but I didn't check the receipt until the Saturday when I spotted that they had charged me twice for something. I phoned them up as soon as I spotted, not really expecting to get any…

Asda christmas gift guide 2011
Page 160 shows a 61-key keyboard, it says it comes with AC adaptor [they're lying]. I bought one keyboard in Chatham Asda after picking up a gift guide, I unpacked the keyboard to test it and found it needed 6 batteries and had no AC adaptor with it. I took it back to the 24 hour store at 11pm only to be told that the…

Unexpected praise for Seetickets
Late on last Tuesday evening I purchased tickets online for an event tomorrow. Whilst looking at the differing descriptions of tickets I'd obviously added 2 sets of 4 tickets (each set at a different level/price) and whilst I'd been looking at the small print at checkout I'd not noticed the total. Once I received the…

Wow... People really do this?
I popped into Sainsbury for a few bits for lunch and decided on some fresh fish. The fish counter has a sign saying "Free marinades or butter with fish" which is a nice touch, saves you having to hunt around the store for a suitable sauce. You can then cook the fish in the bag that they give it to you in, complete with the…

I'm going to put all of the facts of the complaint below, just wondering if anyone can come up with suggestions on what to say? I pay…

Talk Talk cold calling
Recently I had Talk Talk knock at my door, the salesman told me I could now get free broadband in my area! he never identified himself as being from the company, and barged his way in my flat after asking about a table. That was no indication to come in! I just let him ramble till he went, and no I did not give nay…

Beware Greg Nicholson golf shop
I would not normally bother going to this effort, but I thought I should bring this to the attention of online (golf) consumers - avoid Greg Nicholson like the plague. The service has been amazingly poor and I would not use this company again if it was the last golf shop on God's green earth. Very unprofessional, took…

She and a few other staff members have asked for a day off for Eid (out of their own holidays) but have now been told that they…

Amazon and Vtec - PRAISE
Bought a couple of Vtec Kiddizoom Cameras from Amazon back in June. Recently they both developed different faults. Emailed Amazon, who replied within the hour saying they would be happy to help, but as a first port of call, had I tried contacting Vtech Technical Support to see if the issues could be resolved. If I got…
