    Do you actually read what you write??? Your "advice" to the OP didn't refer to "pushing and "complaining" in any way, shape or form:



    Your actual "advice" was to encourage the OP to dishonestly profit from someone else's honest mistake. And your phrase "at all costs" is exactly what the mercenary OP will deservedly incur if that advice is followed.

    Coming on here as some kind of Macho Money Man -- wowee, look at me: I have no morals and am proud of it! -- when you've already told us elsewhere that you're 23 years old and married with two very young children makes for sad reading indeed.

    God help Society if you intend to bring your kids up in the same moral vacuum you inhabit.

    As for all these repeated assertions about how "wise" you are now and how much you've "learnt" from others, that might have helped your credibility were any of it true. But it isn't.

    A failed burger van owner who by his own admission is worried about how the State's long overdue reorganisation of the tax credits system might undermine his way of life, your "wisdom" currently extends to having almost £14,600 of debt in the acquisition of not one but two motor cars.

    The thought occurs that people need "advice" from a fiscally "wise" individual like you in the same way Custer needed more Indians.

    Ok, well to bring in my other affairs is not necessary. My burger van hasn't failed and I do claim Tax Credits, because I offset my losses against my PAYE income to gain maximum benefit.

    I may not be wise, NO. Clearly I'm not, but my cars were taken out on HP before I realised why I shouldn't do this, one car is not even mine, however I pay for it.

    In any case these cars go back in the next few months, so that's gone completely. I'll also pay off my other debts within 6 months, you can't see what my debts were, but they were a lot higher!

    Your right I don't read what I write on here, I probably should. But don't attack me because you don't agree with me!

    Oh and yes I have "2" children, I'm still 23 and fortunately I think I caught my situation early enough in life to succeed in what I do. I don't bring them up to have this attitude, but I'd like to afford their education and to give them a house and car when they are old enough.
    Oh and yes I am a Local Government Manager - but what that has to do with anything I don't know!

    In relation to the elderly dropping money, I always feel for people who are elderly, I'm young and don't need to take from vulnerable people thare are + :D

    Give your attention to the OP now and if you want to argue with me please sent me a PM and do not hijack this thread! ;)

    Years ago (pretty well when Tesco Direct first fired up) - I ordered a mobile phone - after the 5 days the phone didn't arrive - I contacted Tesco and they said they would send it straight away - sure enough it arrived next day

    then about 3 days later another phone arrived in the post - I imagine it was the original order delayed in the post

    Took it to my local Tesco - handed it over and got the service woman to sign a form to say i returned it

    Do I get points?

    TBH I've done this many times with Amazon who will send me a replacement next day without question - and if/when a duplicate arrives i post it straight back

    I figure they know I'm going to get 2 (because they sent me 2) - I also figure what goes around comes around & they probably record items returned on your account to figure whether you're likely to blag them or not
    When will the "Edit" and "Quote" button get fixed on the mobile web interface?

    If not, you certainly get to sleep at night without needing a mug of Horlicks.
