Hey All,

A bit of a :mad: :mad: this morning.

Bought some AAA batteries with my regular CC from A the other day, got home and realised I'd bought the wrong one's and I needed AA instead.

Took them into the store I did the CC and apparently they can't do refunds for CC in store.

So I rang customer services... Who said they could have done it in store, but instead they'll ring me back in 2 hours with a driver and a time they'll come and collect them (to suit them not me)

Never got a call.

Which means I'm now having to waste more of my time ringing them back to find out what the heck went on. Honestly, it's become more about principle than the :mad: refund now.

Anyone else had a similar kind of issue?

I suggest just taking them at a different time, different store…. different SA basically. Thats if this is possible for you

TrulyMadly

Just thinking about the Eat well for less BBC programme I trawled through last night.

Wouldn't WE make much better television. Folk wouldn't believe what us lot got up to:rotfl:
I still can't get my head around people spending hundreds upon hundreds of pounds a week on food. Was it £13k or £18k a year it worked out at?

Both figures seem utterly ridiculous. And how sad to hear that people have such busy lives that they haven't got the time to cut up a carrot but prefer to buy batons instead.
That they can't put aside 15minutes to prepare a meal as the microwave can ping one ready in 3 minutes.
And how they shove branded meals heavily loaded with salt and sugar into the mouths of their children as they drool over pretty packaging.

And I thought "poverty" existed only among the poor. Now the rich are also poor. Poor in imagination, intelligence and foresight:o

It was my post bailey and I've already had Martin on the phone. He's not happy with me and I'm being hauled in front of a tribunal:eek:

£18k, we were shocked as a family. They did come across as a very extreme example, and rather snobbish at times. You're average family doesn't have £18k to spend on food.

Heck that's 1.5x more than my OH gets in a full time job before tax.

Thanks, going to try that too. It's slightly out of the way, but who cares. Like I say they've made it so difficult this has become more about principle than the refund itself. :cool:

Do you think you eat them cold:o

Well just cook it for longer than it is meant to be cooked, and it will make the egg hard boiled.


Opened my Tecsos vouchers today, got a £1 off tassimo pods, :T

Also got a very odd one, 65p off a £2.50 spend...where do they get these random amounts from?

I'm owed a refund from ages ago. One of the Cnc where they allocate a price to a product and it's not been scanned so effectively scans at £0.
It's a bummer, but we benefit so much from the left hand and right hand not communicating that I don't worry too much about it.
Keep at it, you'll get there :cool:
