Hospital Consultant won't respond to DVLA!
In mid-July I had brain surgery to remove a benign tumour, so naturally I haven't driven since then. I thought I'd have to surrender my licence, but the registrar said he didn't think I needed to because the procedure was sufficiently minor not to require this: I just needed to let DVLA know. If they wanted me to surrender…

MAM UK ( babies feeding bottles)
Having reluctantly accepted that I have to give up breastfeeding my 7 week old son, I recently bought 6 MAM Ultivent anti-colic bottles from Mothercare, to replace the horrid Avent bottles & teats that my son seemed to dislike so much. I'd read a lot of good reviews online about how the MAM bottles were supposed to be more…

Compulsory Dvd screens
This issue has been slowly growing inside me for some time, the now common place of multiple company flashy logos that slowly appear on the screen as you play your dvd. Example - I recently purchased Red Dwarf series VII (outstanding, very good - not as good as some of the earlier series, but thats another post for another…

Apple Dentist's (South Glos)
Mmm getting a new patient to stump up £20 when registering is bad practice, not only do you say that the £20 is for dental treatment you also say it is refundable. Only if you are exempt of payment, well my GF is peeved off at this becasue she will get a refund upon her first appointment when she fills out a claim form. My…

Argos - no joy
I went to the LLandudno branch of Argos and requested an item, when I reached the tills they told me that they didn't have the item in stock so I said "that's fine, I'll collect it when it arrives" but the shop assistant told me that they wouldn't be able to do that and that I would have to travel to either Mold, Chester…

Cartridge World
We have an Epson inkjet printer at work which we don't use a great deal, and we always get the cartridges refilled at Cartridge World. (I know there are cheaper options, but this is green, convenient and they give good service!) I've been off sick for a while, so don't know how much it's been used lately. But when I tried…

Royal Mail Lost Parcel
On Friday, I came home from work to find a "sorry you were out" card on the doormat. It didn't say what type of package it was, only that it had been taken back to the delivery office. I called in on Saturday morning, but there was nothing under our name on the shelf. The lad checked the special and recorded delivery…

Claranet T&Cs
Just tried to cancel my Claranet account, which I paid annually and was pointed to the terms and conditions... apparently they don't give refunds, in fact according to the CSR I spoke too they have a "no refund policy". They provide the service "as seen". They can cancel your service for any reason without issuing a refund…

Credit Notes
First apologies to the administrator if this is in the wrong place! I recently found a credit note that had been issued to me by French Connection for £70. I then noticed to my dismay that it had expired in July 2005. I went into a branch of the store in question and was told that had I tried to use the credit note in…

Daily Mail
A while since I ordered a free Sudoku CDROM from the Daily Mail, all I had to do was send an SAE, which I did. Today I received back a Beatles Interviews CD. They put a note in saying that they had no more of the free gift I requested and hoped that I would accept a Beatles CD instead. I am not a Beatles fan and never will…
