Fraudulent direct debits being set up in my name.
Hi folks, Just over 2 years ago I had a little acount I used for cashback websites daily clicks that kind of thing. I stopped doing the clicks but some time later started getting a lot of direct debits set up in my name for all kinds of things, even cat insurance, even one that wanted to charge me £28 for a loan…

Moan about sellers on Amazon :-(

Paid £16 odds for it, delivered today. And its a VHS :mad: I've requested a refund after I send the item back. Just wanting to moan…

Can't even leave good feedback!
Hi all, Right, I do a lot of moaning - I find most companies I deal with fall well short of my expectations, plus I'm a bit of a nightmare, having worked in retail for years of my younger life, I know how to get what I want. But every so often, someone does something really good, and I like to feed that back too. It's…

Prestige Flowers - Anything but Prestige
Look at their website. Looks good. Implies you're going to get Prestige flowers delivered with care from a local florist. Prices are definitely Prestige. What you actually get are flowers in a box in the post. Yes, really. They rely on the postman to deliver these. So much for paying a premium for hand-delivered…

Premier Inn Booking Issues-Terms and Conditions
Apologies if this is in the wrong place, but just had a terrible evening trying to get our booking over Christmas done- visit the lone parent for a few days and have to split up between her and the hotel. Not only does our room cost a lot more for Christmas Day compared to Christmas Eve and Boxing Day- and we don't get our…

Tesco and John Lewis blocking Samsung Cashback ?
I noticed both Tesco and John Lewis have removed their banner advertising the £50 Samsung Cashback on tablets. I emailed both to find out why and was told 'they' are no longer taking part in the promotion. However, Samsung still have both retailers listed. Tesco got quite snotty on the phone and suggested they would block…

Praise for Costa Coffee Staff
Yesterday i went into 2 local Costas looking to buy cups for a relative who is Costa mad. The first store didn't have the size i was looking for, only the large and Espresso sizes but they bent over backwards trying to help me. The manager wasn't in at that time, they offered to get him to call me back, they were lovely.…

NHS consultant
Not sure where to put this so thought a vent would be in order! Basically I wrenched my shoulder in May, was prescribed physio which made the pain worse and then referred to a consultant. I didn't know what to expect but he just seems to delay things. First he said I needed an Xray, then an ultrasound, then an MRI with…

YouFrame - Terrible Service Avoid
I activated a Groupon voucher for the company YouFrame on 6th November 2012. Ordering a canvas photo montage as an intended Christmas present. While they WERE able to process my order I found I was unable to access my account with them online, and thus keep an eye on delivery dates. When I raised this with YouFrame it took…

Arrrggh Amazon using First Class Post for Prime Deliveries
I hate December. The vast majority of my Amazon Prime orders are sent using first class post these days. I know this topic's been done to death but my last three orders have all been late. Ordered a video game yesterday with good old "guaranteed" next day delivery as we're Prime members. Heart sank when I got the dispatch…

Shocking Customer Services from Tesco Credit Card
I just wanted to rant on here that the Tesco Credit Card Customer Services Team is appaling. I have been on hold now for over 20 minutes and my call apparently is in a queue. Yet amazingly enough, if I choose the automated option to apply for a new Credit Card, my call is answered just like that!! Quick to get your custom…

Argos Rant/Moan
I ordered a Christmas gift from Argos for my DD it was supposed to be delivered Friday so I cleared my plans and stayed home so I didn't miss it. The time slot allocated was between 7am and 7pm... at 2.45pm I received an automated message saying that they now couldn't deliver today (Friday) and would deliver it Sat ... so…

Getting up at stupid times!
Yesterday, Friday, I woke up, trotted off to the bathroom in the dark (I get up at 5 for work, no one else is up so I keep as many lights off as I can), and proceeded to go through my morning routine...bath, hair wash, get dressed. Went downstairs, let the dogs out, made my coffee, checked out the front and was annoyed to…

Catalogue Credit Accounts are dreadful!
I do not have one myself, nor do I ever want to have one, but I've been browsing all the top 5 and generally everything seems overpriced and quality of the products is not great. Take a mobile phone on littlewoods, a samsung galaxy y phone is £130. There's one on ebay, brand new, for £64.99 which also comes with a free £10…

Steer well clear of MIGHTY DEALS!!!
I purchased an item for my wife from the Mighty Deals website 3 weeks ago, and, when the redeem voucher email was sent to me, clicking on the link to the seller's site to enter the code resulted in me being asked to pay again! I've checked my statement and the money has come out so I've definitely bought the item. I've…

A Seasonal Warning for Pet Owners
On the back of the Morrisons Christmas Pud adverts (found here if anyone is interested: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sUa4WWeFmPI) Can I just remind all MSE'rs that Christmas Pudding, or rather the raisins contained within it can be lethal to a dog. Have a Merry and safe Christmas with your pets :D

Problem With ParcelForce and a Neighbour?!
Bit of a strange one. We had a note pushed through the door yesterday from Parcelforce advising that they'd left a parcel with a neighbour. Unfortunately I know this neighbour through a friend, and what I know about her isn't great. We went round twice last night, on both occasions we heard them moving around inside, and…
