Email from just eat
I'm just writing on here as I got an email from just eat with my full name, full home address saying about £10 credit. Decided to do a dummy form which then asked for address (which was strange) then the next one said card details, bank account number, sort code it wanted - the lot. Just be careful with what emails come…

Halfords Website Click & Collect Service - Lies/Failure
It's not often that I post threads on here, however this has really annoyed me. Car stereo blew on Wednesday, we needed one ASAP (as I am on the road a lot and need to be able to take calls via Bluetooth to save pulling over)... Halfords seemed like my best bet. Checked the website and BOTH the stereo and required fascia…

Morethan
Just a warning for anyone thinking of buying an insurance policy from Morethan and hoping to get a cash back via Quidco. I bought a policy in April 2015 and today Morethan declined my cash back and they do NOT accept cash back claims. Very nice of them.

Rspca/rspb
A short while ago whilst out walking my dogs, I came across a swan on a fairly busy road and this swan didn't have anywhere to go where it could take off or get out of the way of the traffic and it looked as it might have already been given a glancing blow by a vehicle. Not being too sure who deals with problems like this,…

Warnings about viabox
I cannot say they are a bona fide scam, as it is not easy to prove "intention to defraud" for reasons i will describe at the end and also they might claim im slandering them. But their activities require a strict warning to anyone, and if anyone wants to investigate further them please do. Be very careful of viabox. I have…

Wristwatch battery lifetime battery guarantee - a scam?
We recently tried to renew our watch battery under a lifetime guarantee service at Hinds jewellers on the high street. They refused to do it because, as they said, the certificate did not match the details on our watch - although this is only partly true. As it happens, we only have one watch! It seems clear to us that the…

Dartford Crossing Spam Email
I have just received an email supposedly from the above company (donotreply@dartford-crossing-charge.service.gov.uk) enclosing a "payment receipt". After a bit of research this appears to be a spam email, with the enclosure containing a virus. I have never used this crossing for years, so knew it wasn't pukka. So just…

Beware Topcashback referrals
I referred a friend to Topcashback a few years and didn't get any cash back until I made a complaint. Luckily my friend put my email into the comments section. About 2 weeks ago I sent another referral using my link to a friend who lives in Suffolk. I was entitled to £10 and she was entitled to 500 points. I live in London…

Amazon Seller Difficulties
I set up an Amazon Seller Account a few weeks ago and before I could even sell anything I had my seller priviledges stopped. They told me that is was because that they had decided that my account was linked to another account. Despite two appeals I seem to be unable to prove that I am who I am and that I am not a different…

M&S Marks and Spencer rolling code
I have had a premium club account from M&S since they started it for the travel insurance. I am very happy with it. But today I received a wee gadget like a calculator to make a code so I can access my account. Doooh what idiot thought that one up. It failed jammed and now I can't access my account. They are sending me a…

Lack of publicity over England's shops charging 5p a bag
In just over a month's time, on 5th October, retailers that employ more than 250 employees across England will levy the 5p charge to customers. I and a few colleagues have started to warn those customers in my shop where I work that have the tendency to insist getting a bag for one or two items, even though they are…

Royal Mail online postage vent
Hi there, I have been using this service for quite a long time, more recently have been using the labels which print 4 per page. As of today, you can't use these for letter size now. I have gone to do a label for a birthday card and it won't let me print on labels (4 per sheet) or paper 4 per sheet. They've changed the…

Postie ARGHHH!
I was in all day until 2pm, got back at 4pm to a card through the letter box saying that the postman etc. blah and I have to go to the sorting office tomorrow to pick it up. Went into my back garden and was moaning to my neighbour about having to go pick up the parcel, it's a 8 mile round trip, when she told me that the…
