Had a bit of fun in Morisson s today . On Monday along with my shopping I bought a bottle of whisky. I get home and discover the security thing is still attached to it. Well I was n t going to go back there and then so finally went this morning on the way to the gym, thought I d get that bit in lol.

So I go up to the cs desk , no one there of course so I wait till this woman comes over and asks can I help you. I produce this whisky out of my bag and her eyes nearly popped out ( so much for security there). I say can you take this off for me please.

She said have you just bought it now and I said no I bought it on Monday, another shocked expression. I knew what was coming next. Usually I would have just produced my receipt but this time I didn t.

Have you got your receipt ? I say why Do you think I ve stolen it ? Oh nooooo bbbbbbtttt . Well why do you want to see my receipt then I said. She had no answer for that . But that's exactly what they want to see it for anyway is n t it.

I said I do have my receipt actually and I think someone should educate your till operators better. I m very sorry she replied. The thing is sorry Does n t cover my wasted time or petrol does it.

With regards to me not noticing it myself it never even clicked that it was still on lol , I blame it on my advancing years Feel like emailing head office but I don t have their email address, just to see what they say. Confrontational Susie today

Well they can't get any more money which is the main thing at the moment. How easy it will be getting what he's lost back.....I don't know There's over 100 transactions for £9.07 to the same recipient. I have to question how that many transactions didn't set alarm bells ringing with the bank??

And seething :mad::mad: I am with him, he should know better!

Barclays have put a block on my card a few times PITA but I suppose better to have to ring them to get it lifted than say can you please get my money back.

Go easy on him fc its a mistake anyone can make if they are not concentrating and lots would even if they had been

Thanks, I've just read that. I'm not a "clicker" I only do what I need to but I know our security has run out:( didn't renew as didn't want to pay another £50+. I know there are free ones but I wouldn't know which were any good. It's like reading Chinese...

On the techie forum they always recommend Avast free security.

That's put me right off even thinking of getting Sky (were we in a position to afford it). Don't these companies realise that, given the impact of social media and sites like mse, it's not just their current customers they annoy and alienate when their post sales service is so poor?

Does anyone have any experience of Virgin post sales service?

I was with sky for 16 years and have just left them for BT also ditched virgin 50 Meg broadband at the same time as it was very slow :mad:

I have BT TV with infinity broadband and the telephone for
£ 33.00 a month

And it’s better than virgin and sky. BT is very fast both downloading and uploading

Plus there are some very good cash back deals I got £150 + £50 Sainsbury's voucher from TCB

EEEE.....banks! Why can't just one person deal with all the stuff at once? On hold to 'The disputes team' now........

What is the name of that software that detects viruses on PCs? I've seen it mentioned on here before? I'd better run something on his computer as well

Malwarebytes is free for malware/spyware etc https://www.malwarebytes.org/

and avg is free for viruses http://www.avg.com/gb-en/homepage
Barclays give out free licenses for Kaspersky and that is the one I used to pay for I have that and malwarebytes running

Can I ask a question??

I'm not at all IT literate, can just about turn the laptop on and do day to day things. Don't bank online and post here on my phone

can these viruses get on to your laptop if its not on??

That sounds like a really stupid question now I've written it:rotfl:

Do you physically have to click on some sort of link etc to activate a virus etc?

Thankyou, all help appreciated

No you just need to have an internet connection as in view webpages email etc
