Abosk Ltd - Dogdy letter?
Hi, Been away for the weekend and got back to a letter to my wife from a company called Abosk saying that an order has been placed on her behalf for delivery on her birthday, which is September. There information on it, about how to contact them with queries, which is quite confusingly written. It's a mobile number that…

It arrived very late and I managed to sell the car with the scratches as I didn't have the paint to use. Amazon refunded the money with no quibble. Nobody has aked for the paint back yet…

Sky sucks
Just called sky to ask why, despite 3d being advertised now as being part of the hd pack which I have, why I cant view 3d on my 3d tv. Apparently even though I susbscribe and it wouldn't cost any more a month, because its a 'new feature' I have to sign another years contract to get it. Told them to forget it. Guess ill be…

Customer Service in UK shops
So today I needed to go to Asda to pick something up and they have a Currys/PC World next door so thought I'd have a quick look around. Went in and had a look at the TVs - all very fancy and expensive. So I'm playing around with the £2.5k TV and some others and not one person who worked there even showed any interest.…

Virgin Mobile - Useless
I'm so annoyed at the moment. I took out a Virgin Mobile sim-only VIP deal last month. No problems for a month, and then I received a text message from them to say there was an issue with the account and I needed to phone them. Phoned them, waited 20 minutes then got told the direct debit had been rejected by my bank. I…

Donated And Got Debited Twice
Dunno if there is a pattern here but another thread on here complaining about problems with charity donations so here goes. This is as much a vent as anything. Saw an article in a newspaper, decided to donate some spare cash from a Paypal account via JustGiving, checked out the charity and it was all kosher. Whilst going…

Donated and then got unsolicited phone calls.
Sorry I don't know where to put this or even if this is the right site but I really feel I need to put this out there. I saw an advert on TV last week for the plight of women in foreign countries who are denied schooling and forced into marriages. To help, it said to text a donation of £3. I've done this many times before…

Phone replaced by insurance with a fake one!
My Iphone 4s was stolen about three weeks ago. I successfully claimed on my phone insurance (citymain administrators through buymobilephones.net) paid the excess and was sent a replacement phone. The process was slow and dawn out taking nearly three weeks to complete. I insert my sim card and it appears the phone is locked…

Asda can't find my Asda Direct order
I ordered a hardback book online with Asda direct on Monday, it is one they've sold in store before, but it recently disappeared off the shelves. As it was on the website available to order I did just that and clicked to deliver to my local store which is just at the bottom of my road. I got the order confirmations and…

Out of Area junk phone calls
I had another junk caller just now. This time I answered and said "Hello - is that Consumer Lifestyles?" she said "No, it's Consumer Research", so I said "Hi!" and then launched into a monologue about the weather (raining today) and what I was making for lunch (warmed up pasta in the microwave), and generally rambled on…

Good customer service waitrose/pringles following complaint
Just wanted to share my recent experience of Pringles Customer service and Waitrose customer service. I purchased a can of Xtra spicy chilli sauce (£2.48 - bought on a 2 for £4), on opening found that most had no flavouring on them or only a little at the edge (not much good when they are part of their xtra flavour range).…

Shocking customer service from South African Airways and Dial-A-Flight

Being plagued by calls in error (rant)
For the last month, every single day, a firm called Mackenzie (something) have phoned demanding to speak to "Mark Long". Sometimes a human being phones, usually it is a computerised robot. Twice I have phoned them back and told them that: No one with the name "Mark Long" has ever lived at this address; They are calling the…

Burgergate
Right, so an MP (boo, hiss etc), living and working in London where a pint of beer can be well over £4, is seen eating a burger for a tenner, and the media/f eckless, sky TV watching, benefit scrounging jeremy kyle types are in uproar! What the f*ck is happening to the world? A bloke can't even eat a burger - with his own…
