Praise: L'Oreal
I purchased my tri-weekly (:() L'Oreal Sublime Mousse hair dye last week, got everything ready to dye on Sunday evening, emptied the contents of the box and no gloves :( . L'Oreal never seem to seal the bottom of the box (?!). I wrote to L'Oreal suggesting that perhaps they start to seal the bottom so this doesn't happen…

Debt Collector Messages
Oh this drives me mad! Let me first say that although I've been contacted by debt collection agencies, it's always been a problem with the council tax or something, not something I've done. One of these companies sends texts saying "*name* please contact Scott & Co urgently on 0845**** quoting reference ****". Am I the…

Yo! Sushi
Went to Yo! Sushi for the first time today - overall I have to say it was a very pleasant experience. Two things marred it though... 1) It was our first time ever going to this style of restaurant and we basically walked in, were sat down and then left to our own devices. It may be a self explanatory system but it took us…

Plumbworld Diabolical Experience, Avoid at all costs
Firstly, the goods supplied are ok and as described however this companies biggest downfall is its customer service, or should I say lack of it. I have read numerous reviews slating this company and I knew I could have issues, but I thought I would give it a whirl regardless in the hope I was lucky. This company are great…

Praise for Sainsburys!!
My daughter was given a Kenwood mixer for her birthday in December by her aunt. She is a keen baker. This weekend it broke in that the one mixer would no longer turn. I asked my sister for the receipt so that I could return it but she no longer has it. I took the mixer back to Sainsburys anyway and they said they would…

Foreign aid given as UK manufactured goods instead of cash
0.7% of the UKs gross national income is spent on foreign aid. Instead of giving cash to corrupt governments why not send goods manufactured in the UK? This way money could be put back into the UK economy, supporting UK industry and creating new jobs! The people who need the aid would actually receive it as items they…

Neighbours noisy dogs
This has been ongoing for years. There are 2 dogs that bark intermittently through the day with long quiet spells in between. 2 owners, with one owning a yappy and the other a large one. It seems that any sound triggers the stupid animals into a barking frenzy which quite frankly has got my nerves in shreds because I can't…

Fitness first price increase
Below is a copy of my letter I've emailed to FF, I'm so !!!!ed off as I can't see how they could possibly justify the price increase. Reading on the clubs Facebook page I also see other members complaining about spin bikes which I've not included in my letter! I've received a letter from yourselves increasing my…

Unable to pay cash for goods in currys....
I have been trying to buy a product from Currys that is not in stock in my city and the nearest is 70 miles away. They have flatly refused to ship it to a store in Norwich for collection and payment in cash (I have vouchers), even though it costs £100 and therefore is available for free delivery to my house. I am looking…

Hello Fresh, awful CS
There's an O2 Priority Moments code for £20 off any Hello Fresh meal box. I ordered the small box online and then changed it straight away for the medium box. This showed in my account but the discount code disappeared. I messaged them to ask about the code and was initially told the discount only applied to the small box.…

NS&I website worries
Hi, has anyone else had the same dismal experience with the above website. Having opted to register online I had several attempts before my password ( including upper and lower class letters, numbers and unique symbols!) was accepted. I logged in last week to purchase premium bonds, which was easy but when I wanted to add…

ASDA Taunton, maybe others
1. Wyke Farms Mature Cheddar, 270g pack. A big sign, saying "£2, 2 for £3", above the shelves. So, I bought two packs. I've just checked the receipt (Yes, I didn't do so in store. Do as I say, not as I do.) and I've been charged £2 each. 2. Peter's "Cornish" pasty. 50p each. It was dire. All the warning signs were there:…

My thanks to Boots opticians
The arm fell off my Specsavers glasses today in a town which did not have a Specsavers branch. I took the glasses into Boots opticians and they fixed them for free. They didn't have to, and its not often in modern life that this sort of thing happens, so my thanks to them.

Defending Tesco
Once again I find myself defending Tesco against the Ravaging Hordes/ Posters on MSE (delete as required :) ) on this board. I wish to make it known that I am not an employee of Tesco in any way, shape or form. However if Tesco want to show their gratitude with say, litre bottles of vodka or glitter glue then my clubcard…

Too much security
Like most email users I get obviously fraudulent emails asking me to confirm my bank details so that I can be sent a huge prize in a lottery which I never entered. The addresses for reporting such scams are quoted as euroteam at the OFT or scams at the OFT so I try to report them. I carefully put the full header…
