Just a quick thank you to Staingard who replaced my sofa because they could not remove a stain from a seat cushion and the fabric and sofa are no longer in production at the manufacturers. I did need a bit of patience but got there in the end. Well done Staingard best £££ I've spend for a long time.

If PayPal screw up, you lose money!
I'll try and keep this short and not ramble. I brought an expensive (£156) item from a German company back in early July and paid for it though their website using PayPal. Item never turns up and the company, who in the beginning converses with me in fluent English says that they've asked their courier to investigate. I…

Lazy web site designers rejecting valid addresses
It happened to me again today.Visiting the EE web site to top up the credit on my phone. The credit card they had on file was out-of-date, so I had to enter a new one. It then asked me for the card-holder's address. Like many web sites, there's an option to type in just the house number and postcode, hit a button, and it…

Amazon delivered a PC case instead of a toilet seat - Who is Luke Kelly?
There have been a few threads recently around Amazon delivering the wrong items - so thought I'd add my own. I ordered a toilet seat - and got the delivery this afternoon - being a PC case that lights up in 13 different colours. The address label was correct - but the interesting thing was that it had an Amazon gift…

Oxo gravy cubes - half vent, half query . .
Hello, I just wanted to ask if anyone else has noticed that Oxo cubes seem to have lost their flavour. Or have I lost some taste buds over the years? That could happen, I do agree. It's just that when I was young, not so long ago, my friends and I would go out and play in the cold - sometimes even in the snow - and have a…

Why this site was worth so much.
When this site was sold by Martin Lewis some of it’s value was based on the thickish people like me who seek advice on the forums. Today I have encountered some friendly well meaning people I’ve also encountered some rude people who use their expert knowledge to try and belittle other users. These experts have put me off…

Royal Mail - Grey Card
Just received a 'Grey Card' from Royal Mail. It states that the local Delivery Office in Southport is holding an item addressed to me, for the following reason.....

Amazon's Packaging
A technophobe neighbour asked me to buy them Outlander 1-5 on DVD which is a fairly heavy set, with Sony being as tight as a duck's behind the slipcase it's housed in is the thinnest bit of cardboard you could find, Amazon sent it in a box the same length and width as the set and about a inch higher with a scrap of parcel…

Lidl = 3rd Wave?
As an elderly couple we are very aware of Covid risk and now shop once a fortnight instead of weekly - Our nearest supermarket is a Morrison store and I was impressed by the level of their precautions.

BA holiday credit
I feel like a hooked fish being reeled in. YES, I did do the patriotic thing and accept BA's credit voucher instead of a cash refund for a cancelled holiday due to covid. Now despite all the doubts and pitfalls I am trying to book for 2021 but BA want an additional deposit and the voucher can only be redeemed against the…

I saw a Black Friday offer on the Hive website for 30% off Hive View Outdoor Cameras. We wanted another two and with 30% off the cameras this deal was attractive. What Hive doesn't tell you is that the only way that you can access the 30% discount is if you sign up for either a monthly or yearly video storage contract (£59…

It was immediately preceded by the ATP tennis final so I knew I'd need to keep an eye on whether there'd be an overrun or not. I put BBC2 on just before 9pm, saw the…
