Nike refusing refund
Nike missed a pair of trainers in my order that was delivered and are refusing to refund the cost. I have never had this happen. I've complained on twitter and online chat and they just cut me off and say case is closed. Their argument is that the weight of the boxes of trainers match the courier box, which is a joke…

Easylife Rewards Club Rant
I wondered if anyone else had been caught out like this? My 84 year old aunt got an Easylife catalogue through the mail. She ordered a back brace by phone & gave them her debit card details. This month when checking her bank statement, she found 2 amounts charged to her card - £69.95 & £79.95. Both charged by Easylife.…

'Studio' non-existent customer service.
My wife needs to return an item to Studio but there was no returns label on or in the package. I messaged Studio on my wife's behalf asking where we could locate the Returns form - it isn't on the page of their website that Studio claims it to be on. They refused to tell me, because I'm not their customer. My wife then…

Bought an xmas gift from CURRYS? Check the price now, return and buy again
Be aware, if you bought, as many did, on or around black Friday, you may have paid more than you needed to. The offers were supposed to be the best around, and many of us parted with our cash to buy gifts or upgrade old tech. CHECK the price today, as the offer now could be much less than you paid. It's too late for them…

Dumb clothing labels
There's a certain shop of knitwear that overall I really like... they're really high quality, expensive but not designer expensive and often have a wide range of colours available. One of the downsides however is they have a vast number of models with fairly small differences between them... one may be slightly slimmer…

Click here to confirm your credit card details...... All seemed to be of foreign origin, so just…

So when work was finished I did a quick google and the same post office is showing on the PO site as being open until 5:30. Great!! Plenty of time to get there. And then I…

No sure if this is right place for the thread but it is a warning. If like me you are a small one man band with membership cover for your van and personal car, as of August 2023 your membership no longer covers any commercial vehicles.
