I complained to Domino's today as one of their delivery drivers was knocking on my front door at 00.35 this morning. Surely if they were delivering at that time and unsure of which door to knock, they would ring the number on the order?! When I looked out of my window (ground floor flat) this guy was stood right by my window and scared the life out of me. He was walking between my door and the upstairs flat (who had ordered the pizza) and knocked both!!2012 Wins - May - Box of Magners.

should i complain to the buses? i was waiting at bus stop and put my hand out for the bus and as it was coming to a stop i turned round to give my gf a kiss goodbye then i heard it open to door so i turned around and looked at the driver and was about to get on when he looked at me (now walking towards the bus) and closed the doors and drove off. and because off this i had to get a seperate service bus that cost me more money and came at a later time, making me miss next bus i was going to get and haev to wait another half an hour.0

The manager of the store got in contact to apologised and to compensate me, let me order a meal for free - two large pizzas with pudding all delivered promptly!
