Money Saving Club WhatsApp 'trivial complaint'
I wanted to use a British word other than 'trivial complaint' as that sounds stupid. But it's not considered 'appropriate' nowadays even though it's a legit word. Anyway... I signed up to the Money Saving Club WhatsApp group and they send daily messages to try to save people money. It quotes Martin's page many times but I…

Id requirements for DVLA
I paid my road tax online after getting a 'last chance' letter. I then thought I would set up an online account to ensure I didn't forget to pay next year. Unfortunately I couldn't as I didn't have a valid form of id for them. Valid ids are: - UK Passport (or expired within 12 months) - Non-UK Passport - Biometric…

Where are the normal people, is common sense no longer a thing from car buyers!
So, wife’s Clio car gave up the ghost and wouldn’t start. Tried the usual suspects - Battery, Starter motor, crank sensor and subsequently gave up and bought a replacement car for her as I don’t have trusted mechanic to work on it. Decide to list it on gumtree as spares and or repair for £350. Fair enough price in my…

The Range and Wilko
At what point does ordering from a company that fails to deliver on dispatch times almost become a scam? Pre-ordered from The Range on a bed in November and they took the money with a delivery time of 5th January, however as the time drew nearer the delivery date was almost slipping by a day every day. After a couple of…
