Tesco price match, they don't!
You know how Tesco claim to match any rpice and refund the difference, well they don't. My wife bought some Persil Non Bio 2.1l at £8.00 from Tesco, it was £7.00 in Morrisons. So you'd think she would have got a £1.00 off with the price match, she didn't. On that shop she only got 20p. I sent Tesco an email asking about…

Carphone warehouse
My husband bought me a phone last month (32 days ago) and the power button stopped working on it yesterday. He took it back for me today only to be told they won't replace it as its over 28 days since he got it. Oh and then they tried blaming my giffgaff sim card for causing the problem, they said its to do with the…

Ebay woes
This is a vent not so much about Ebay, but more specifically about the type of people that try to manipulate it. Some months ago, whilst at work, my colleague who sits across from me was selling an expensive item on Ebay. It was nearing the end of the bidding, and said colleague was unhappy with the price her item had…

Someone using my email address
I don't know if this is the right place to post but here goes anyway. Over the past couple of weeks I have had emails from a few companies - Currys, ASOS, Fashion World to thank me for my registration and confirm my order. I would normally just "junk" these and block but the emails appeared to be coming from the legitimate…

Amazon UK VAT Invoices
This is the second time I have been stung by Amazon by this problem. I bought a Printer Cartridge for business use from Amazon UK which was sold by a Ltd (VAT Registered) marketplace seller, but the item was Fulfilled by Amazon (Amazon was out of stock of this item at the time). "Fulfilment by Amazon (FBA) is a service…

Vent! Estimated meter readings
I just got a lovely letter from EDF threatening legal action and bailifs because of an unpaid gas bill for £330 based on an estimated final meter reading of 3592 units. They decided this when I left to go to Sainsburys Energy. The amusing thing is that even now, on 5th October (the estimate was in May) my use is 3099…

ASDA Edmonton Green complete melt down
It seems “selling is [the] universal responsibility” at the inconvenience of the customer. Had the most appalling experience at the Edmonton Green branch. The main issue (that day) seemed that the store had NO carrier bags. AT ALL. You heard me. None. This is not the first time this has happened at this branch either. Not…

Simply Electronics - BUYER BEWARE
I ordered a Google Nexus 10 from simplyelectronics.net on 18 August. My credit card was charged the following day. After 2 weeks I contacted them to be told that the shipment had a fault and had been returned to the supplier, this seems to be a common excuse, I cancelled the order after a further 2 weeks of waiting for the…

Eaglemoss Dr Who problems
Is anyone having problems with the new Eaglemoss Dr Who fortnightly subscription models? They have taken three payments so far for the first installment each which are clearly separate transactions. Its as if I've got three subscriptions but i have definately only got one. They asked for details and I sent them an email a…

Co-Op pricing of fruit
This is purely a vent - but I needed to get it off my chest! I live in a small town, 20 miles from the nearest big supermarket so I usually shop locally - we have a small Co-Op and a Budgens (expensive). Prices in the Co-Op for fresh fruit and veg are higher than the big supermarkets but too bad and since there is a high…

Blockbuster
I've been trying to contact Blockbuster's Service Team all day today, but can't talk to anyone. I've been on their Twitter and Facebook pages and there's nothing about the lines being down. Can anyone offer any advice please? I tried to order a game online last night and after entering the digits in the 'verified by visa'…

Tesco Delivery Saver poor performance
Signed up for Tesco delivery saver as we live about six miles from the nearest Tesco (Batley, West Yorkshire). I seem to have to phone every week with some sort of problem with the delivery. Today they delivered an out of date item which I need for guests tomorrow, so I phoned and asked them to re-deliver. They can't do…

im crackig up, somebody reassure me.
...that I won't be stuck living on a pittance forever? About 3 years ago I had a nervous breakdown and ended up sleeping rough for a few months before finding help, since then I've only been able too find part time minimum wage jobs, everything else I've applied for has been a dead end. I've spent almost the entire month…

Blockbuster Online Rentals
I have signed up with blockbuster for a 4 month subscription via a Groupon. I have had the service for approx 6 weeks so far - mainly because of Lovefilm stopping renting games. I have to say that Blockbuster are absolute rubbish at renting - I consistently have several PS3 games all in the top 4-5 of my list and I never…

wood burning stove vent
I live in what is supposed to be a smoke free zone, no open coal fires only smokeless anthracite coal fires. So a neighbour decided to "go green" and save money by installing a wood burning stove to use instead of his gas central heating. Now all of us in this place have to suffer the smoke and smell of his wood burning…

To all those who have been scammed by the free trial from Raspberry Ketone!!!
I found the website for this so called free trail on Facebook Ads and have just been scammed this very day and fortunately (even though not really), I fell upon this website. They had just billed me for $4.99 for the shipping. I immediately called the bank saying that I would like to stop the transaction and for any…
