0161 numbers
Is it ever OK to answer calls from an 0161 number? Every week I get multiple calls which I usually ignore but occasionally answer, if I am distracted, doing something else. Much of the time the line is dead but other times there is some low life parasite at the other end desperately trying to con me into purchasing their…

DPD - not a complaint but a question.
Hi All, not sure if anyone knows the answer to this. 🤔 Do DPD drivers get a signature or ask the name of the person they are delivering to as well as taking a picture or do they just put the name of the person the parcel is addressed to? Background - I ordered a Tiny Treat Tree for my friend from Bloom & Wild. It was out…

John Lewis has gone off and so has it's Price Match - don't go there!
Beware shopping at John Lewis. They are no longer the honest, good service company you may remember from years ago. They are now a bottom-line cut-throat store who are all smiles but don't really care about their customers. I have a few examples but most recently yesterday tried to use their price match promise to purchase…

Amazon return
Sorry if I am in the wrong place? My O.H sent for a mattress topper from Amazon, we have only ought a few things from them in the past. His sight is not good and he managed to press the wrong button so we got a super king size instead of a double. I did manage to sort out the return and took it to my local shop for a…

I was about to vent about topcashback but....
I was just about at the end of my tether with a cashback claim on topcashback. I bought a camera lens last November (1 year!) from a subsidiary of Jessops called Camera Jungle, that at the time offered a 10 percent cash back. It tracked, and quickly moved to 'confirmed' which it's sat at ever since. I wrote to them at the…

Money saving gizmos that actually work
A praise thread for items that unexpectedly did the job My first suggestion was a little product Mrs O found. She was forever having to throw out tee-shirts because of little holes towards the bottom at the front (some after only a couple of wears). She came across a little product called hole (with an accent) button…

Ocado delivery pass rip-off
Maybe I'm overreacting and there are plenty of bigger issues out there at the moment but I was surprised by Ocado's attitude to their delivery passes. Just prior to the pandemic, I signed up for a 3 month "off peak" delivery pass with them as a new customer as my wife was pregnant and we didn't want to have to make trips…

Vent - excuses vs solutions
Is it just me or do you think if people spent half the time they did making excuses as they could in working towards a solution then they wouldn’t have a problem anymore. Too many “woe is me” social media drama queens striving for attention (and thriving on it) Just pack it in Vent over

Topcashback [Edited by ForumTeam]
I had updated my ACH to a different bank and I double checked to have the right bank and Topcashback sent it to the wrong one anyway, and the bank they sent it to will not return my money.
