OEM Brands
I know a lot of stuff has been posted online about this company and whether it's a scam etc. But I have to say from my own experience they have been great. I ordered an Apple iPad Air 2 and yes shipping would take 3 months. So I bit the bullet. Delivery was 14/09/15 and the item didn't arrive. I contacted then to ask for…

Hotel room description - do I have a point?
Certain hotel I stay at has two types of room. On their website, they have standard double and ensuite double. Only difference is the standard doubles have no windows (And are cheaper). So I avoid the standard ones because I want a window. Generally I used booking.com, hotel.com, or laterooms.com to book. So yesterday I…

When is the rest of the world going to wake up and destroy IS
While Russia and China Back Assad, the west wants to remove him and IS, Turkey is bombing the Kurds (the only force who are actually making gains against IS) IS are laughing and taking advantage of the chaos of the situation. I really do think this is the biggest threat the world has seen since Hitler, and the east/west…

Parcelforce is harassing me.
Almost 6 months ago, I sent a parcel through this fraud company to destination country ABC. After couple of weeks, the parcel came back to me with a note that the address was incorrect but I was shocked when I found my items worth less than £800 were missing. I submitted the claim to them but unfortunately during the claim…

Talktalk broadband
Foolishly just switched to talktalk from sky. Must say sky have been great but were getting expensive, switched to talktalk assuming all broadband was provided by BT and ultimately all gets the same speed roughly. Prior to switch I was getting about 4.5Mb download according to speedtest.net. After the switch I get I've…

Curry's taking money for goods they don't have
I recently spent a small fortune on 2 electrical appliances from Curry's. I was told at the end of delivery day that the item wasn't on the lorry because there'd been a problem with the lorry and the men couldn't fit it in. I accepted a delivery later in the week. By the end of that day I received a voice message asking me…

Wine hard sell
My OH came back today from visiting MIL. She has been tricked into buying a case of wine for. £200. Basically some people turned up on her doorstep saying they had her details because she had filled in a survey. Foolishly she let them in and they talked her into buying this wine.. What particularly concerns me if that…

Guilt tripping Big Issue seller - Small vent!
I'm used to seeing Big Issue sellers outside supermarkets and always smile and say "no thanks" politely and carry on walking inside. But, this afternoon when I went to our local Scotmid Co-op the woman at the entrance asked me and when I said no, she then said "please, I want to go home, please it's cold..." in a begging…

My elderly mother in law's Dyson vac stopped working and the company sent a service operative to carry out the repairs. It had been agreed that as the guarantee had expired a charge of about £80 would be incurred. The representative arrived on time and fixed the vac. He then said that as the guarantee had expired only…

Postcode lottery
Has anyone received unsolicited emails from Postcode Lottery? I've had one asking me to activate my ticket but I have no idea how they got my details. There is a link at the bottom to unsubscribe, but I haven't subscribed in the first place and I'm always careful not to give permission for my details to be shared. What's…

Vent at House Builder, Advisor and Bank
I feel totally let down by all parties involved when trying to buy a new house and would like to VENT against the Builder, Financial Advisor and the Nationwide. I put down a £500 deposit for a new build in March, but the sale advisor actually said "Don't apply for your mortgage yet". (This is very bad advice). It turns out…

Mse failing to communicate
In September last year, I signed up to an offer through MSE for Sky broadband and phone, which offered £100 M&S vouchers from Sky and £92 of M&S vouchers from 'Affiliate Window'. Due to a delay in getting a new phone line installed, the broadband service was not activated until April 2015. Sky promptly sent the £100 M&S…

Asda Wolstanton - so bad!
To cut a long story short, I have (or should that be had) deliveries from Asda.com Before I moved house I was in a postcode served by Asda Stafford and was completely satisfied with their service. Since moving our groceries come from Asda Wolstanton. Every week the delivery has been progressively worse - a highlight was…
