Costa "Egg Mayo" sandwich with no actual mayo in it?
Ate one of these day, but as far as I could tell there was no mayo in this "mayo" sandwich. Maybe I shouldn't complain too much, as I got it cheap through the To Good To Go app, but if I'd paid full price for it I'd be pretty miffed.

Warning about LookIncredible.co.uk
I think I've been scammed. Bought something from them a month ago by clicking on an ad on Google. Money taken immediately, nothing received. Have emailed them several times, each time they say they have refunded me but I've had nothing. Just looked on Trustpilot (why didn't I do this before ordering??) and see a litany of…

Scammed and so difficult to report
So I was scammed out of £800, and almost resigned to the loss, that I will never get my money back.But although this is annoying enough, what really gets to me is no one is interested. I try and report it, and just given a 'bean count' number. No feedback, no reponse, no investigation.The ads I fell for are still there.…

EDF UTTER SHAMBLES...
Phoned EDF to query why we have not received any bills since last year to find they switched us to email billing. Thought that was odd because I never gave them an email unless they have it on file from when we were with Sainsbury's energy. But that account didn't work, it would never let me login after Sainsbury's Energy…

Argos "Marketplace"
I have recently found that some items in the Argos catalogue are little more than advertising for the underlying supplier company. As such, these products do NOT benefit from the same convenience which enables returns to an Argos shop for their stocked items - that is, specifically, you can't return these goods to store…

Whistles
So admittedly not a frugal brand. I thought I was purchasing good quality items. So far 5 pairs of trousers have failed. And failed magnificently. 1 pair of trousers I tried 3 times. The quality of stitching and material is just not there. The customer service is basic and unhelpful. Currently they are just ignoring me. I…

Avis USA Car Hire problems
I know I'm going to get hammered for this but it's a salutary lesson in thinking that what you've agreed with the attendant at the hire car desk is what's on the forms that you sign. I booked an Avis car through Booking.com, pickup at Orlando airport. The price included full CDW and I purchased a top-up policy (for tyres,…

Hi all, Severn Trent had a pipe going through our garden that collapsed and so they had to fix in August 2023, however 2/3 garden is still unusable due to them not completing all the work. The original issue led to them digging a 4 metre deep hole in the garden and ripping up 2/3 turf in the garden. Those works took place…
