Praise: Richer Sounds TV Warranty
When you buy a TV from Richer Sounds you get a 6 year Warranty included at no additional cost. It's a nice bonus, and I never expected to need to use it (modern TVs are quite reliable).

Praise for Wilko paint.

I'm waiting to complete on a house and should be moving soon so passing the waiting time with a couple of projects. So I decided to paint a Welsh Dresser and chose Slate Grey this time. I got a 2.5 ltr tin. I've given the…

SNEAKY SELLERS- PURCHASES DEFAULTING TO "SUBSCRIPTIONS"
I have to rant about sellers being sneaky about deafaulting to subscriptions as opposed to the single purchase you want to make. Cleverly hidden by lots of of textual foliage causing distractions so that you miss that wee circle selected that you wish a subscription of the product again by month or week etc. I've always…

BEER 52 - Don't go there!
Don't touch this company with a barge pole. I sent an introductory offer to my grandson. Then immediately cancelled the scheme as my grandson thought the drinks were not to his taste. The company delivered another case the next month and when queried said there were two very similar accounts one had been cancelled but the…

PayPal vent
PayPal keep pushing back the resolution date on my requested refund. I've returned the item with tracking confirmed. Have reached out to them on Twitter and have been told to wait whilst a 'specialist' examines my case. Been a couple of months now since item returned. Feeling very frustrated and disappointed. Sigh.

IKEA - Total Incompetence and Horrendous Customer Service

Unfortunately the mattress had a hole in it, and they didn't have a replacement mattress in stock, so we had to wait 6 weeks for one to be delivered. Come the day of the expected delivery I received a notification from DPD that they were…

Support our high street shops and save the planet
I was listening to something on Radio 4 which alarmed me. We can all reduce our carbon footprint by shopping on the high street because for every item we order online another delivery van gets sent out which basically equals more traffic. They said our need for things online has increased a lot in recent years but went…

DPD - A discurteous, dishonest false economy
People use companies like DPD because they're cheap. It's a false economy & a game of Russian roulette. The measure of a company is how they behave when things go wrong. And with DPD that's more often than not. For the last week I've been engaged in what can only be described as a farcical exchange with the "Escalations…
