    OOohh, no, I thought of a worse one: Waitrose.com.
    If you load up your basket with foodstuffs - don't then click on any of the tabs at the top of the page to take you to, e.g. Home and Garden stuff - it empties the basket of shopping.

    Did it once, will never revisit or use waitrose.com. Which is weird as I love Waitrose IRL.
    :grin:If at first you don't succeed, then sky-diving isn't for you
  • Megabus.com is always terrible for me:mad:

    Having just used it, 'redspottedhankey.com' is pretty clunky. It works but every page load takes ages.
    There are two types of people in the world: Those that can extrapolate information.

    Yes, it is, I forgot about that one.

    Err, hate to say it, but this one is pretty poor in some respects. It's pretty ugly, the colouring - layout & navigation are good contenders for 'websites that suck' and the javascript popup when moving your cursor down the forums page is just horrible.
    Oooooh, you'll be getting excommunicated directly - or whatever it is they do - hanging, drawing & quartering, no doubt :p

    Have to say, much as I love the content, I totally agree. This is my clunkiest website, by a country mile. I still love it though :money:
    And ditto (i.e post 26) to you! Thanks to your toe-curling final sentence I expect they will alow you a relatively quick beheading instead.

    Me too but it's a letter I need proof of delivery on.

    I've managed to find out today it's still in the Royal Snail network , it was posted 1st class on the 17th and it's destination is less than 2 miles away, :( if I didn't need the proof of delivery I'd just drop it off myself.
    No way to avoid it in that case. Just makes my blood boil when they charge 85p extra (or whatever) and all you get is "Your item was posted at ....on .... and is progressing through our system" ad infinitum. yeah, I know it was posted at ..... on ....... , I bl**dy posted it. I bet if i checked, I've got stuff from last year that's still "progressing through" their system.

    I am getting a little off-topic as this is more to do with their service rather than the actual website. Sorry!

    Argos for sure. Inexcusable!
