Tassimo UK. Grrrrr!!
Tassimo customers will recently have received emails from Tassimo UK inviting them to enter the great Tassimo 'Secret Garden' competition. You choose your prize from a range of items. You enter code numbers from Tassimo packs. And then the 'Secret Garden' website tells you if your number is a prize winner. But actually, it…

Groupon/Bodini not delivering/Groupon
Has anyone else had a problem with ordering the xmas tree from Bodini via Groupon. It was a £79 xmas tree for a groupon price of £8 and was supposed to be delivered in 2-4 weeks from 26 October. I have e-mailed Bodini twice and been ignored and when I ring the number on their website, the call gets transferred to a…

Morrisons - bargains, but a little bit 'cunning'
You've got to watch these shops. My local Morrison's were offering a great deal yesterday on Christmas sweeties. Boxes of Roses/Liquorice Allsorts/Heros etc were buy one for £4, get two free basically giving you over a kilo of sweeties for £4. Magic...... Then I spotted the Coke on a big stand something like "1.78 each, or…

Sainsbury's: PLEASE OPEN YOUR CHECKOUTS
Is this just a localised phenomina, but each time I go to my local supersized Sainsbury's, the queues are usually 3+ deep and only 5-10 of the 40 checkouts are open? I left a trolley full of stuff in there last night and just walked out in disgust. I'd never see this kind of disregard for customers in Asda (but I'd never…

I've emailed them twice in the past 35 days and had no response and their telephone number just rings…

Post Office.
Having major problems with my local P.O to the point that I now regularly travel 70 miles to post stuff, also to get shopping as well. This has been happening since the new owners took over a couple of years ago. I only go if I really, really have to as it is unpleasant & often a waste of time. Each time I go there is…

what's happened
Not really a vent more of a niggle. But today while in my living room trying to fix my christmas tree lights i kept hearing a bang that sounded like banging metal so looked out my window to find a car on the side of the road alight. Cars had all stopped and people from the navy base a few doors down from my house were…

Tesco - customer service not great!
My husband bought me a Professor Layton DS game for my birthday. Unfortunately it was the wrong one. I was surprised it was not in cellophane but he said that was how they sold it to him. Today I took it back to change it, to be told that Tesco do not exchange games for copyright reasons and anyway as it was opened, they…

Beware of Foot Asylum
Went to take a pair of shoes back today to the Foot Asylum in Stoke as the thread had come undone. Got told very abruptly by some assistant that all she was able to do was refund on to a gift card - never asked why I was returning the shoes. I asked for a receipt to be told that 'a receipt is our property, not yours'...she…

John Lewis Five Year Guarantee
This is a pre-emptive rant... You'll have seen the "John Lewis five year guarantee" for TVs? JL's webpage ( titled "Our guarantees and what they're worth" ) says: "The best example's probably televisions, where we offer a 5 year guarantee -that might be up to 4 years over and above the guarantee offered by the…

whitestrips4u.co.uk - Legit?
Placed order with http://www.whitestrips4u.co.uk/ over 2 weeks ago. Website says next day despatch. 2 weeks later, no goods, long delays in answering emails, no answer to telephone. Have I been had, or are they just a lot slower than they claim?

Schuh
This is a big praise with a teeny bit of vent thrown in as well. So I wanted to order a pair of shoes for my partner for Christmas and I saw that they offered a 10% student discount if you e-mail them with a photograph of your student card and information about its expiry date. My student card hasn't got an expiry date and…

Who to complain to about our postman?
We live with a gate onto the road at the front to our front door, and our back door goes onto a cul-de-sac. Over the last few months we've had the postman carry out the knock and run (knocks and leaves before you've even had a chance to make it too the stairs!) and he's left parcels at the front AND back doors and today,…

Beware M&S 3 for 2 offer
M&S has an offer 3 for 2 on toys. I added 3 but didn't get the discount at the end. I called M&S and they said it was a system error and some of the toys are showing as 3 for 2 but are not. This is false advertising, should they be honouring the offer?

Play.com first time customer online, don't bother...
Decided to purchase a small anniversary gift, 'Name a Star' gift set by Gift Republic. 5 days passed before being delivered an empty tin. No contents. There wasn't even the cover sleeve on the tin. The warehouse person picking this item clearly saw that this was an empty blank tin being sent to me. So anyway, I follow the…
