tesco pay at pump
I bought £10 worth of petrol at a tesco petrol station. I selected pay at the pump before fuelling up and inserted my card. When I had finished, the machine told me that it was out of paper and couldn't give me a receipt (it should have told me before frankly) but that I could get one from any other pump. Most other pumps…

Avoid Car World Peterborough
Roughly six months ago I purchased a car from Car world in Peterborough and took out the all singing, all dancing warranty offered with auto protect, covering all aspects of electrical problems and wear and tear.

Praise for Very
I've read a few negative reviews on here about Very and thought I would just put my story up. About a week ago my microwave went caput (I don't have a "normal" kitchen so a microwave is a must).

Amazon Prime
Having bought a Kindle, and often buying goods from Amazon, I thought I would sign up for the Amazon Prime service, especially as it offers the Kindle lenders' library. However, looking at the small print it offers thousands of books to borrow 'with a frequency of UP TO 12 A YEAR'.....so only one loan book per month!?…

Vent: Zavvi but Praise for Play!
Ordered a DVD box set from Zavvi Outlet at Play.com on 18 December as a Christmas treat - I've used PlayTrade before and never had any issues so thought it would be okay. Unfortunately, Zavvi use Yodel to deliver so whilst parcel arrived at the right address it was in several more pieces than expected - 4 of the 5 cases…

Barclays phishing email
Received this email today, the bad spelling/grammar and dodgy looking email address suggest to me that is a phishing email so I have contacted Barclays on FB to advise them but thought I'd post here to see what you guys think....

Secret Sales & Brand Alley Buyer Beware!!
I would like to advise you of a couple of issues: Cancellation of an item - even soon after purchase - guarantees that the item will be sent regardless. Money is therefore taken, and then it becomes your responsibility to 'turn the delivery away at the door'. Really?? How many of us are realistically able to stay in all…

Praise: Kiddicare & Interlink Express
Just wanted to say how impressed I am with the service provided by Kiddicare. Free next delivery offered, which meant today as I ordered on NYE. Interlink were great with their text notifications and delivery within the 1 hour slot they specified. Glad to see not everyone is using Yodel! :D

Avoid THE JEWEL HUT
The Jewel Hut: Advertise a sale... Confirm orders and despatch... Then debit your money and cancel your order without refunding it. This company is awful and I have had no response from them. Am currently awaiting a refund without any joy. DO NOT USE THIS COMPANY.
