Argos - don't buy a TV from them!
I bought a 42" Bush tv from Argos in December. It has just stopped working - no power. After a 40 minute phone run around I found that they use an outside service (UMC) for this product. UMC asked how I wanted to proceed - writing/email etc. I chose email. They told me I would have to send a copy of the receipt and package…

Neighbours smoking cannabis
When I say neighbours, I mean the house 3 doors along. Each to their own what they do inside their property, but with the hot weather and them having their windows wide open, the street absolutely stinks of the stuff. Not the sort of people you can confront, just a shame others have to smell the vile stuff.

Burger King
I am going to get a reputation here for a junk food addict but this one is a genuine complaint. On my work I popped over to BK for my lunch as forgotten to bring my packed one in I prepared last night. I ordered a whopper meal, handed the chap my money, he handed me back my change. I then watched him march into the kitchen…

Asda are a joke
Today in Asda, I picked a bottle of wine reduced to sell from £6 to £3, at the checkout it went through at £5.50, which is never surprising at Asda, I queried it and someone was sent to check it, he came back and said it is £3 but they can't sell it to me for that, I'll have to pay £6 and accept an Asda gift card for the…

praise for buyagift.com
I bought my husband a voucher from buyagift.com for his birthday & because of various reasons, he hasn't been able to make use of it and it's about to expire. I thought of giving it to relatives but nobody else was able to use it. I contacted buyagift & was able (at a cost) to either extend the life of the voucher or…

Argos Sofa
Having a vent. Lots of people warned me off buying a sofa from Argos but I went ahead and ordered one. I was notified it would be a month to deliver and they took the money from my account. A couple of weeks ago I received a telephone call to confirm my delivery time and date. I spoke to a customer service advisor and this…

Mightydeals.co.uk WARNING
About a month ago I made 2 purchases on mightydeals website. The reason I purchased them separate was because I had 2 £5 mighty cash to use. The items were £10.99 each and with the £5 off they showed I was paying £5.99 each. I used my existing credit card and paid for the items. I received my credit card statement the…

Tesco consider adding the points of discarded receipt as theft
:)Tesco Truro security guard considered that adding points from a receipt discarded in a trolley as 'theft' and banned me from store. There was no prior warning or anything. And it was for a measle 2 points. I'm considering to appeal. Think I have a case against them and how do you consider doing this? Edit for detailed…

McDonalds Breakfast and Cheese
Is it just me that finds putting cheese on sausage, bacon and eggs is horrid. I would not mind if there was a tradition in the UK of having cheese with your eggs in Britain, but I am not sure it ever has been. So why do McDonalds insist on putting plastic cheese on EVERYTHING. It just means that on the rare occasion I have…

ASAD fruit, hit & Miss
Not singling out ASDA, its just the SM I use, but why is buying, say peaches such a gamble. You get one punnet, leave a few days to ripen, then there fine. But on another day they just turn to a pappy mush. Same with Galia melons, you may get 1 nice one, then one like ive just got, hard & tough & Tasteless.. Strawberries…

Parcel2go.com - AVOID
I am not one to get angry, but I have been pushed to the limit by the shocking lack of customer service by parcel2go.com. If you do nothing else, please never ever use this faceless organisation. If I successfully warn just one person not to use this company, then I will have done a good deed. I sent a coffee table,…
