Bathstore lousy after sales service.
Recently bought a load of stuff from Bathstore for a refit. The wrong sized radiator arrived and was quickly replaced.However, the plumber said he felt the shower tray was too shallow and would likely leak with water soon lapping on the edge of the cubicle. I called them up expecting to exchange for a deeper tray but they…

New scam? Or known?
Received a telephone call yesterday, saying the caller represented a legal firm. She wanted to know if I knew about people having to sell their homes, to pay for their care when they are elderly, and how did I feel about it.

PRAISE - Tyrrells crisps
I had a bag of Tyrells last week which I wasn't happy with. I sent them a polite email saying that I was disappointed with them and why. I did however go on to say that as I had eaten them I didn't want a refund, especially as the crisps were on offer for £1.00. A couple a days later an email came back from their customer…

Vent and rant about the car cleaning services in car parks (and other people touting)
It happens in quite a few car parks, including my local shopping centre one... EVERY time I get out of my car (and I go into my shopping centre 4 or 5 times a week for work or shopping; ) I get 'you want car wash?' And I say no every time, as I wash my own car. My problem is not so much with the fact that they are asking,…

Be ware when buying edible products with a screw top.
A while ago I observed a customer in a well known supermarket unscrewing jars of jam and licking the contents. I gave the person the evil-eye and said 'will you be buyng them?' all I got was a smirk and just carried on. I informed a member of staff and they knew it was happening but couldn't stop it. I said you have…

Hello, I purchased several radiators including a chrome-plated towel rail from Trueshopping and had them installed at the beginning of May. We have run the (brand new and professionally installed) heating system a few times to bed it in and have had no issues. However... we went on holiday for just over a week and when we…

When they gave us the original quote, we asked if we needed lintels putting in, as next door had had windows replaced and no lintels and now the windows are bowing. The 'salesman' said we would probably need them but they would send a surveyor out who would…

Stupid magic spider.
So, I'm sitting on the bed and this MASSIVE spider pegs it across the bedroom floor and goes and stands right on my favourite Rocketdog pink goth plimsolls (that I am far to old to have and I don't care because they've got bats and the moon on and they're very cool). Now I'm not afraid of spiders, but I don't really want…
