The Great "Milk and More" rip off?
OK, so having a milkman is not the cheapest way of having one's daily pinta, however, I like the service and think it's important to keep these useful local services in business. However... for many years I have had the milkman deliver my sparkling water, then last year I was aware that my bills had increased, although…

Praise for Tesco
Bought a mobile phone a month ago from Tesco. It was fine until two days ago when I couldn't hear the other person. As it was a new touchscreen and much more modern than my old brick, I was sure I'd set something wrong. Had a fiddle and couldn't sort it. Whizzed up to Tesco and asked the nice man to see if he could sort…

Inequalities in the workplace!
Not as serious as it sounds, just a little vent really. I met my OH for lunch today. I stood outside his workplace in the lovely sunshine waiting, watching his colleagues leave the office. My OH wears shirt, tie, dress trousers etc to work, the policy is 'smart casual' but they like the (few) men to wear ties. Its a call…

Hi all I am looking for people who have experience dealing with KGB in the past. Basically I bought a voucher for a dental consultation in Jan 2012, clearly on the voucher it says it expires in July 2012, but everytime I call the dental clinic, they say there busy and will call me back but never do. I eventually went to…

Cashback-'fuming'
Right. Yesterday I spent 5 hours of my life trying to reduce the cost of my 'Buildings and Contents' insurance. I am livid!!!!!!!! Tried them all from Go compare to Moneysupermarket. Also went on Quidco and got a cashback code. Cheapest quote was Swinton @ 9.99p/m. I then get a phone call from Swinton telling me that they…

Birmingham City Council
We used to have a recycling collection once a fortnight. We had a collection just after Christmas which took place a few days after the normal Friday collection. I assumed this was down to the mass of paper and plastics involved in opening gifts over the Christmas period and shrugged it off. The next collection took place…

After a couple or four unmeasured Whiskys and coke I feel better now so I have decided to spare you all from my rant.

Currys Made me really angry
In the past, I've bought a few items from Currys. I never opt for the extended warranty they try to flog (afaic that's what contents insurance is for). It turns out that Currys have taken out over £100 -unauthorised - from my bank account :mad: I went to Currys today and spoke to the store manager. Surprise surprise, he…

Another Thread about a claim against a Travelodge stay.
Hi all, This is my first post and I've previous been stalking these boards following a letter from the famous Civil Recovery Services concerning a claim against me for £100.73 after a stay at Birmingham Central Bullring travelodge on 26th january 2012. I'll try and keep it short : i received the letter from CRS a whole…

BG stupid or harrassing?
Just got in the house with heavy shopping when phone rings and it is british gas wanting to speak to husband. A little surprised as I thought this was the 21st century not the 19th and chauvanistic attitudes like this had disappeared. Decided to be reasonable as we have been customers for over 20 years and possibly DH had…

Very impressed, we got there at 2pm for his party and had a 2hr guided tour with a tour that know how to get into the minds of 7yr old boys lots of talk about poo, and bottoms lol. Even though it was busy, she made space at every tank for the party to be at the…

Bedeck - Bedazzling Bedding Company
This is Spot on the left. He's my daughter's best friend. After Spot went missing briefly over the weekend I was afraid that his next solo adventure would be one he didn't come back from, so I thought it politic to try and find a close relative in case of toddler heartbreak. This is an old photo. Spot looks much the same,…

Fleming Park Eastleigh - Nightmare kids party
Had a kids birthday party yesterday at this venue which is run by DC leisure and have been to several parties before which were good albeit expensive. Yesterday we had another one and it was a joke. When we arrived the party room was locked and the party host didnt know the code. When she got the code it was the wrong one…

You can't even select East Midlands as an area to search!!!! Edit, so I thought I would get myself a magazine sub. but they list "for her" "for kids" BUT not…

speckyfoureyes callback NO!
whilst looking on the specky four eyes website it says 'request a call back' at the top of the page and when looking at a pair of individual glasses a window annoyingly keeps poping out from the side saying the same thing. i did request a call back hoping to get a swift answer to a question and no call was made back to me,…

Amazon
Amazon Customer Service is brilliant. I reported an item which had broken, within half and hour they had sent a return label, and the following day I received a replacement item. It gets better, the broken item, once packaged up can be dropped off at loads of places, rather than standing for half an hour in the Post…

About time YouTube cleared up their act..
I'm talking about the comments section of videos. It annoys me how a huge majority of videos end with a list of vile abuse and commentary from brain dead idiots with nothing better to do! I don't have kids, but if I did then I would seriously consider blocking them from accessing the website for this reason. At the moment…
