Coco White or DPD - who is at fault? Is there anything we can do?
Hi there, I hope someone can tell me where to go from here and I am not sure I am in the right place for this post. My daughter ordered some tooth whitening products from a company called Coco White.

Awful Pets at Home customer service
Please allow me to have a rant about Pets at Home - and the dire service I recievedfrom them on Friday / Sat. I don’t like shopping at Pets at Home.

Complaint against IFA?
Not sure if this is the right area to post but it seemed the most suitable. Apologies if it is not. Some years ago my IFA sold me an income replacement plan which paid out when I was long-term sick prior to being medically retired last year.
