    Get a life you sad pathetic loser. Its a newspaper.

    Thats right you contact consumer direct and ask about SOGA and tell them your missing a section from your page.


    so if you went to tesco and purchased a tin of baked beans and when you got home and opened the tin and found you only had 1/4 of the beans you would say oh well at least i have some beans.

    you pay the newsagent for a FULL newspaper and these days its a FULL newspaper with 30 pieces of junk mail thrown in, but you only get 1/2 of the paper and the junk mail, then you should complain as you have not got was you paid for.

    Its a very sad world..............................

    People are dying of hunger, no homes, no nothing.

    Why dont you use the spare time you seem to have to fundraise for these people, they are far more important that a section of a paper.
    make the most of it, we are only here for the weekend.
    and we will never, ever return.

    I take the electronic edition now but before that there was a time when mine was always missing something - and it was never the Sports section which I don't look at! I used to stand at the counter and flick through the whole paper to make sure everything was there before I left the paper shop. I have to say the few times I asked News Int for a missing bit which I particularly wanted, they alwasy sent it. Never had vouchers though.

    I do find the iPad system wondeerful as I don't even need to get dressed and go out to fetch the paper now. (My shop didn't deliver.) And what i pay now gets me The Times everyday as well for what I peviously paid just for the paper version of teh SUnday Times.

    However, after a year of this, I've recently discovered the biggest drawback. I was decorating and had no newspaper to put down when painting the skirting etc.

    Take a "Thanks", belafron, and welcome to the fold. ;)

    You could say that about almost every post on this website. It's a pointless statement; you'll always be able to find someone worse off than any poster.

    If you're that bothered, stop posting here yourself and use the spare time you have to fundraise etc etc
  • This has to be a joke surely....no, well stop the world I want to get off!!!!

    I do,I campaign and fund raise for homeless people in my local area but cant find anyway of fundraising in the late evening.

    Aren't we getting a bit side-tracked here?
  • Sorry but I just have to laugh at this:rotfl:

    Do as others have said, take it up with your newsagent.

    I remember once, a few years back I did call the Sunday Times as they had in the culture Section an article on a band I liked, I'd mistakenly thrown the magazine away, called the Sunday Times, with the vague hope that they could at least direct me to a web site that has the article. They were extremely helpful and actually found a copy of the mag and sent it to me free of charge
    total airhead, total bimbo, very superficial:D

    Have you not got more things to deal with in life than a missing page from a news paper.

    Not noticed that it is a consumer rights forum?

    pcombo is one of the rudest and least necessary posters on here. I suspect they have anger issues as there are many posts by them spewing vitriol at others, fortunately a lot get deleted.
    See the offensive post quoted by texranger above for a perfect example of just how this person deals with others. The very definition of a keyboard warrior.
