Parcel delivered to my address in error
Hi, I'm new to this so bear with me!! A parcel was delivered and left with a neighbour in the next street and a card put through my door. When I went to collect the parcel, it was heavy-ish and bulky so the neighbour carried it to my house for me. I noticed that it was not for me, although it had my address and postcode. I…

Quick-Step Flooring warranty
My advice, avoid this flooring because it will not live up to its advertising claims, and if you have children running around definitely a ‘NO-NO'! My house was gutted and refurbished last summer. I spent 2 months unsuccessfully looking for the washed out white colour I wanted in hardwood, then my builder suggested…

Do they think we are that stupid
Just received this email and although it made me laugh there is a serious side to this. Some people fall for these so why is there not more done to stop this. Surely there should be some authority that you could forward these to so that they can investigate and deal with the offenders. I am having to change my email…

Fasthosts - vent
My partner has hosted his website with email addresses through Fasthosts for years, he just renewed for 2 years and then they tell him that they no longer let people with his package use their servers to send emails, so if he wants to continue to send emails he has to either upgrade and give them more money or go elsewhere…

Debenhams flower vent
With everything else going on, this has been forgotten about. However it may be of use for those looking for flowers for mothers day. My wife's less-than-subtle hints that she has never received roses before (just before valentines funnily enough) got me looking into a bouquet of roses for the big day. Looked into a few…

Crossword Scam!
Hope that you don't get caught out by this one!! It goes like this, you are sitting in a pub or or a train, and a nice young man comes up to you, saying he is a bit stuck on a crossword. He has a notable stammer, so he is quite slow to form words. Anyway, you help him with his clues, and he steers the topic towards the…

MBNA - 16 spam emails received since applying less than 24 hours ago!
Just a quick one... Submitted my details last night on MBNA's website to see if I was eligible for a credit card (the basic check which has no impact on credit rating). They had a seemingly good balance transfer offer I was wanting to take up. The email address I used is one I've had for several years, I maybe get spam…

Swatch watch batteries
Discovered that the Swatch shop will replace batteries for free in Swatch watches. Thought I'd mention it here in case, like me, anyone didn't know this. I guess I might have known if I'd bought from a Swatch shop rather than at the airport. Big thanks to Swatch shop, Birmingham Bullring!

John Lewis flannelette sheets - not impressed
Bought a couple of these at a cost of £20 each - not cheap but I had seen good reviews on their website. These seem to be from customers who have just bought them and yes, they were great at first, nice and thick. However, 4 years of normal use later and they are wearing extremely thin and one is virtually unusable as it…
