Buying on Vinted? The Paper plate scam and what to look for.
This may be a bit like preaching to the choir, but this little ruse has suddenly become a lot more common so its worth repeating. Settle in... Vinted is, for the most part, a pretty safe platform for buyers and sellers, if, like all these type of sites you keep your wits about you. Recently people have been receiving paper…

I have unwittingly signed up to this service after purchasing something on Ebay on December 2017 and unknown to me they have been taking £15 pounds out of my account for the last 2 and a half years. I have contacted them and sent back a…

Gift Round - Duplicate Transacations
I've had a duplicate withdrawal on my account Friday 22 July following a payment I made in March 22 via the Gift Round collection website. I've rung them and they know there has been an issue with their systems but couldn't tell me when I will get my money back. Hoping its not happened to too many people and that they…

Negligent service from Currys and no resolution from 'customer service' or CEO Alex Baldock!
My issue started mid July 2020. Curry's provided information of how their staff would make a delivery to my home, which I was convinced given their website and policies published about Coronavirus, that I would be safe and free from threat. Unfortunately, Currys staff didn't comply with their own Covid-19 protection policy…

British/Scottish Gas
British Gas gets slated so often that I thought I would post this small thing. I have had problems on the website after logging in, for a long time – admittedly didn’t do anything about it – but recently got on to their chat with a minor problem. I had to wait less than 5 minutes for a friendly/efficient advisor who…

No mobile phone- no discount
Waitrose sent me personalised money-off paper vouchers tailored to my spending in-store, at the same time as introducing the App which will put these discounts on your mobile. Since then, they haven't sent any paper vouchers at all. I don't have a mobile phone, so now I'm going to miss out on the discounts. I've contacted…

No Refund For Online Purchase, Beware Dog Owners
I have a 17 year old GSD / Collie cross who has arthritis in her back legs and is dragging her claws when walking. I purchased 2 pairs of boots for her from innerwolf.co.uk. They arrived in good time but didn't fit. I repeatedly tried to call the company for sizing advice but no one ever answers so I sent them back. They…

Richer Sounds - Praise be!
Hi, I just wanted to give a shout out to the wonderful Richer Sounds who have again surpassed my expectations. I've been researching for days to find a spectacular wireless headphone that doesn't cost the earth. Found one I liked on amazon at £65. Richer Sounds had exactly the same model at £69. RS also have a 'beat the…

DPD Delivery
Have you tried using DPD’s redirect/not at home change ? It is impossible to cancel a change of address on-line I mistakenly set my 2nd delivery option to a neighbour (to use if I am NOT in) The delivery will now be made to a neighbour – not to myself It now shows as "Delivery will be made to <neighbours address>" And…

Amazon - Product Switch - Resolved (Box of seeds received instead of battery)
I've read about it happening several times - and now it's happened to me. I ordered an 'Amazon Warehouse' battery for my drone on the Prime day promo which gave twenty percent off all Warehouse items. It came out at about £140 instead of the usual £175. When it was delivered tonight, I checked the seal, and it was intact.…

Uber Eats - Very Late
Not really a question here insofar as I won't do anything about this but I am wondering on people's thoughts. We ordered a Uber Eats delivery yesterday and it was predicted to arrive in 40 minutes or so. It got delayed, so actually took over 90 minutes. As is normal, the app keeps doing updates and the messages got more…

We went in just before noon to the freshly baked pies/etc. I asked the lady behind the counter re exact ingredients as one of the family suffers for severe allergies. The response, the info from this member of staff inc the politeness surpassed our…

What is wrong with these silly daft sheep humans? , they all love being tracked and traced by using their card. Yes ! I know we can't beat the big brother surveillance, but…
