Tesco - Emergency Recall Product
I was in Tesco this evening and I picked up a pair of trousers, reduced from £18 to £5. At the checkout a warning flashed up and the operator called a supervisor. They had a chat for a few minutes and the supervisor told me that they could not sell me the trousers as they were flagged as an "emergency recall product". It's…

Arriva bus running me off the road!
Is it just me or is it a requirement for we-employ-crappy-drivers-va (Arriva) bus drivers to drive dangerously? Mr I-own-the-roads, this is not cool! You nearly ended my life! http://road.cc/content/news/57153-leicester-bus-driver-may-face-disciplinary-proceedings-after-cutting-cyclist…

Praise for NEXT
Last month my next account was hacked and someone managed to place an order for some rather expensive sunglasses. I spoke to next and they advised me on when I had to do to get this item removed from my account so I wouldn't have to pay for them. I was unable to use my account whilst they were investigating the hacking but…

Razor blade left in bathroom after repairs
So we had some work done in our bathroom today and one of the engineers left a great big sharp three inch open blade. I have children under two. If either had got hold if it they could be seriously hurt. I raise a complaint and hear nothing.

Not disabled at all parking in supermarkets.
Went shopping this afternoon and parked near some disabled spaces. I noticed 2 or 3 able bodied people getting out of cars with blue badges on the dashboard. One chap must have been in a hurry and practically ran into the supermarket. I am talking single occupant able bodied people with no obvious disabilities. Saw a…

lovethoseshoes Love Those Shoes- refund warning
As I'm unlikely to get a refund, I wanted to put up a warning, and as I have found this site in the past while looking on Google, I think this is the best place to do it. lovethoseshoes.com offers free delivery, free undated returns and has a permanent sale sectionl. For this reason I bought 5 pairs of shoes and returned…

Really Cheap Kitchens
DON"T BUY FROM THESE. They also operate under several other names none of which is registered with companies house. I wasted over £1300 for kitchen units that couldn't be put together, fell apart within 4 months of light use by older couple, had parts missing, had wrong parts sent, had 2 left sides, doors fell off due to…

Ridiculous rubbish sack rule
I found out today that my local council won't collect household rubbish (ie non recyclables) UNLESS it is in a black sack, by which they mean a refuse sack that is black, no other colour is allowed. Needless to say, it is the first time I've heard that petty rule - I've lived here over 22 years fgs! My rubbish was neatly…

Dodgy company - Balloonhelium.co.uk
I just wanted to make as many people as I could aware of this company: Balloonhelium.co.uk They are part of Bonza balloon network Our charity run preschool placed an order with them costing just over £60. Which is a lot for us considering it's the children and parents that raise the money! The order they sent was incorrect…

Rant - Vie at Home Still no makeup!
I went to a Vie at Home party 5 weeks ago and STILL have not had the makeup that I ordered. I have spoken to the rep last week to ask where it was and was told there were problems with delivery of stock from Germany, yet my cheque was cleared a few days after the party. So Vie at Home have my cash sitting in their account…

Kybotech / Gardenbuildings Direct
My experience with this company has been terrible and having done some research now I can see that there are lots of others who have been let down. I ordered a summerhouse from them with the promise of a typical 2-5 delivery but still waiting for even an indication of a delivery date (let alone delivery) 10 days later. And…

Tesco Spam Emails
In the last few months I've clicked 'Unsubscribe' on all the spam emails I get, and have stopped receiving mailings from online shops I've used in the past. I am still getting emails from Tesco Entertainment. This is despite repeatedly checking my subscription settings in my Tesco online account. I have also complained to…

Vent at Tesco Mobile
I ordered a new SIM only from Tesco Mobile and wanted to carry my existing number across, they said it would be no problem. I received the SIM card and a text saying that it would take until 4pm yesterday to carry my existing number over. My old service provider cancelled my SIM early yesterday morning, I waited until 4pm…

Lovefilm (and similar)
I registered a holiday with Lovefilm so that I didn't get any films sent to me while I was away (this was only for 5 days). I've just checked my account to make sure they reduced my premium this month. I'm on a Light User plan (3 discs per month) but, on checking my account details, it appears Lovefilm only sent me 2 discs…

The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly
After some disasterous :mad: outings to the supermarkets and general clothing shops with surly staff who are unable to say 'Hello' I wanted to get other people's opinions on how you feel about going shopping. What most annoys you about just trying to pick up a few groceries, your pet peeves etc? :p

LowCostHolidays - Baggage Ripoff
I just completed a booking with lowcostholidays for a package deal. When it came to selecting the last final details, like baggage I was surprised that you only had 2 choices. ALL or NOTHING at £50 PP for a Thomas Cook flight. I called them but no-one was there at that time in the evening. Changing the booking later…

Vodafone web order processing shambles
I ordered a Huawei G300 on the Vodafone website last weekend and got email and text acknowledgement saying I'd be updated when it was despatched. My credit card company called me on the Sunday to verify it was a legitimate transaction which I confirmed so I know it cleared security. I didn't hear anything further from…
