Overcharged at Waterstones...
...only by £1 so I didn't notice it as I bought a few books at once. However, I'm irritated now - if a book says say £8.99 then that's what I expect to pay. Is it worth the time, effort and cost of driving back into town though to get my £1 back or do I have to swallow it and be more careful in future ? Or can I take the…

Praise for Very.co.uk
Title says it all really. Ordered Dyson hand-held vacuum cleaner which upon opening was damaged (although exterior packaging wasn't). Very smooth returns process - collected (at no cost) from the door the following day by Yodel. Had to re-order the vacuum (even though they had my money they couldn't do a replacement) but I…

Shell Drivers Club - points not credited?
It's been a while since I logged into my account on the shell drivers club, so thought I would to see if there's any offers (well, you never know). As they don't award the points for bonus vouchers until a few months later I have a stack of receipts here that I have kept to check later. Anyhow, I checked the transactions…

JD sports HELP!
So I ordered a gift voucher last weekend from JD Sports for my nephew's birthday. He adores the place! As I live in a fairly rural area (40min drive to either of the closest stores) I decided to place an online order for a gift card from their website for £25.

More car scratches
Around almost 2 years ago I posted here regarding the scratching of our car over a few nights. This stopped and for 2 years it has been a relief but I always check the car and try to get it parked outside our house. Today (of all days as my mum has been taken to hospital after a fall down the stairs) I find my car outside…

Dulux paint sucks!
Haven't had a problem with their emulsions........UNTIL NOW! We used their 5ltr Vinyl Soft Sheen 'mixer' range, same colour as before just to freshen up with 1 coat as we intended to rearrange/remove pictures and had some other things done.

Google Search Result Sponsored Ads
Seems they have put a little icon next to it now saying it is an ad. Must have been recent as like probably most I use google daily. Must have had some pressure to do that? They have fobbed it off for years. Wonder how many people still purchase a passport, driving licence, medical card application via them......... even…

wood burning stove
Going green yuck. Why should we have to put up with this? My neighbour has recently installed a wood burning stove and now we have to put up with the smoke and smell it produces. From a no smelling area because everyone used gas or electricity for heating to a smoky smelling place. He is at the end of the road and the…

For the second time this year, Asda has managed to upset me to the extent that I will have difficulty ever shopping there again. I tried to use some money off SafeCoupons and after a great deal of consultation with various people including a manager, it was decided that they could not take them as they had " never seen…

My mother popped by my house to get some washing done this morning as her washer had broken, whilst she was here we had an incoming call from BT to speak with her (On my line :mad:) It seems they kept my number from when I set up the account as an alternative…

Is this a TalkTalk scam?
This is a new one on me. Received a letter from them today, addressed to me saying confirmation of the set up of direct debit instruction. My name and address were correct but the bank a/c no. and sort code of someone else. I traced the sort code to HSBC in London. Has anyone else had this?
