Hello, My husband had a few letters from parking eye about a parking fine from a private car park in Cambridge - angliear hearing. The signs are not obvious at all and he was there no longer than 10mins to run into the Tesco across the road. We ignored the letters as we believed private parking companies can’t force alt…

I have had a £250 returned payment to my current account following multiple SO`s to multiple RS`s at the beginning of the month. My bank doesn`t give any details.

I received this from these clowns today after my appeal went through roughly a month ago. I was asked to provide my driving licence so they could rule out I was the driver at the time. They managed to get back to me being the registered keeper so I told them I am the keeper not the driver, anything else is up to you to…

Bit of a niche question but has anyone ever sold an empty beauty advent calendar, eg, Liberty, please? If so which one and how much did you get for it? We've seen they can go for £20+ and are looking for examples for the weekly newsletter. Thank you!

This is for a friend who paid for the parking and displayed their tickets but lo and behold they got the letter from Parkingeye saying they didn't. I'm unsure as to where this original letter is as I have asked them to produce it but they have yet to do so and I am unsure they have retained it. They appealed and that got…

This company claims to be able to save those that sign up hundreds of pounds a year every year in utilities, broadband and mobile phones. They do this by passing on the kickbacks they get from providers for getting you to switch and finding better deals. Has anyone had any experience of this company?

So I bought a new cheapie smart phone but it's too big and uncomfortable in my hand. Have my eye for ages on a second hand Samsung A53 5g. Smaller and rounded edges.

When porting a mobile number from EE to Talk Home Mobile a problem occurred and customer support was awful. Errors occasionally occur but how a company deals with the issue is key and in this case Talk Home Mobile did poorly. Initial contact with customer support was made over the phone but agents were not helpful and…

Interested in people's views on this one, particularly whether anyone else has had the same experience with ZOE. I signed up to ZOE for 12 months at £9.99 per month. I was perfectly happy with the original 12-month commitment because I received a discounted glucose monitor as part of joining. I stopped using ZOE after a…
