LOCATION: United Kingdom
LastMinute.com
A friend and myself recently booked a holiday package through last minute.com. This was for a weekend trip to Barcelona with hotel and flight included. We were completely mis-lead by the advertisement into thinking the airport was a mere ten minutes away from our hotel. We were 'fooled' by the mis-match of hotel and airline. As per the advertise it stated the hotel accommodation was close to the airport we were being dropped off at. As a foreigner entering the country for the first time and insufficient grasp of the language thi... read full review »

MFI*Ancestry.commf
I viewed an Internet site a year ago that required a debit card to view information on the site. I did this and was charged 69.99. I thought this was very expensive as I only wanted to trace family members and the information was a 10 minute read! They have now debited my account another £79.95 a year later! What for I have not joined anything. My bank can't stop it as it is internet evolved.

London Bus
I am very upset about the bus service. I reside in Southall and I usually have to take bus to Southall station, however most of the time the bus driver dont stop the bus on Sussex road stop even if you request them to stop. It happens quiet often now because of which I have faced difficulties. I have a recent example I was waiting on the Sussex road bus stop southall, on 5th June, bus no H32 approached on the stop at around 13 hrs, I requested him to stop but he just ignored and left the stop without stopping leaving behind 5 passengers who... read full review »

The Florence Trust
I work part time for a charity and have been dealing with this company for 6 weeks now. They refuse to give a refund and have sent a replacement which is also faulty. Every time that something is wrong I get put through to India where they stick to the company script and do not even listen to the actual problem and as a consequence I have re-installed the all in one five times when the problem has nothing to do with that but is a scanning/ print color issue. When I finally found complaints they couldn't care less, and send me straight... read full review »

www.LimeWire.co.uk
I joined limewire.co.uk at expected cost of£19.88 for one year. I did not request their 'download protection' or 'netspyprotector option' software as I already have software on my PC for these functions. I have been charged a total of £55.61 which includes the cost of these items. The phone No given is not recognized so I cannot speak to anyone regarding my complaint.
The website given to me is not recognized so I cannot use this service. read full review »

I am not used to music sites and thought that because of the copyright laws i would have to pay to download music. i went into limewire, but money has been taken out of my account by music for members. The email i received is from noreply@market bill.com the site it told me to access is
http://musicformembers.com/loginv2.asp
The amount of subscription was supposed to be £19.99, but they have taken £50.52. They even sent the email to confirm the money taken. I feel such a fool. Is there anything i can do?

360 Pro / Bearshare
I subscribed to 360 pro and Bearshare paying the one off fee. I was at the time under the impression that allowed me to download songs legally. If it is not legal what are we paying for? Anyway... Both of these sites no longer work. I feel I have been ripped off. I have cleared them from my computer.
I have found an address to email both of them, surprise.... surprise they have not replied.

O2
I bought the phone from my local 02 shop in Lancaster, the speaker became difficult to hear with distorted sound. I took the phone back after 6 months and they refused to replace it, they sent it away to their repair agent who said it was unrepairable as there was fluid ingress which I dispute. I have contacted O2 by email and they refuse to replace or refund my money.
I thought O2 were a better company than this. read full review »
8009309932 Online Supplier
HFC Bank phoned me worried about certain periodic deductions from my credit card. These were payable to 8009309932 Online Supplier. At this moment I have no idea why. I admit that, under the pressure of circumstances, my checking of the monthly statements has been rather careless. I just automatically sent off the payment the Bank requested. The payments concerned are:
May £25.83
April £26.25
March £26.43
March £26.43

Share 360 Pro
I had been a fully paid life member of this company (?). When I went to use Share last week it didn't work. I downloaded it again and paid again hoping to get a refund as I'd already paid a life membership. However, when I contacted them on several occasions explaining the situation, they just deleted my e-mails and didn't want to know. DO NOT USE THIS COMPANY, THEY ARE A RIP OFF AND DO NOT HELP YOU IN ANY WAY, SHAPE OR FORM. ALL THEY WANT IS YOUR MONEY. THE QUALITY OF THE DOWNLOADED SONGS ARE NOT THAT HOT ANYWAY. read full review »

Aclepsa have excellent web pages for their online pharmacy. My first order came as requested. However my second order, made three months ago, has according to Aclepsa, been re-dispatched three times from India. Their response is polite, although hardly intuitive to use their complaint system.
I find it hard to believe the package could have been 'lost' or intercepted three times. As far as I know UK customs haven't intercepted the package. So I have lost over $70 dollars - half of what another person on this site has lost... read full review »

EasyJet
When boarding at Gatwick I was charged twenty five pounds because my luggage weighed 5kg over the maximum weight of 20kg. I find it completely unfair that there was no pre-warning of the maximum weight. There were several other passengers who were also forced to pay charges and whom were all also unaware that the maximum weight of luggage was just 20kg. Incredibly, there is a sign which reads " weight restrictions apply within reason". I do not believe that a twenty five pound charge is reasonable for 5kg. If Easyjet wish to be so... read full review »

What a farce - computer is great - printer is trash - like everyone else on the net this printer was working fine then suddenly "right cartridge incorrect" message appears and will not go away even with brand new £28 pound cartridges - think I'll take a sledgehammer to it in the garden and replace it with something where the cartridges are cheaper and the after sales service may possibly exist. read full review »
Amazon MTG TCG
2 weeks ago I was looking online for the Magic 2 Player starter set.
2 weeks ago, instead of costing 9.99, it was on Amazon for 1.49. I ordered it to that price, but the order did not reach me. When I wrote to Amazon, they just confirmed a refund. Now as you can see on the link, they have corrected the price.
I feel that they just made a mistake and did intentionally not send me the product i ordered for that price. Am i wrong to assume that Amazon is legally bound to sell me that product to that price if they offered it to that price... read full review »

I do lots of surveys on line for companies so when I received an email from Mr. HERMAN FRANKLIN I was not overly excited when I realized I would receive 550.000.00.

to leave the UK. Then he asked for a larger sum for some obscure reason. I asked him to take it out of the winnings but he said he could not. Mr. Bond now has A$38,000.00 of mine. It did not stop there as he wanted much more. I was now... read full review »

PRICES - AVAILABILITY: I did not find the range of some products of Aria Technology Limited (‘Aria PC Technology’ –aria.com, aria.co.uk, etc.) as wide as some others’ –e.g.: Earlier it had just one double/multi-layer dvdv re-writer, when another already had three brands; when I looked for a 3-fan hard-drive cooler it had only 2-fan ones. Another’s comparable firewire card had also an internal socket, both 4 & 6 pin cables, free editing software –its, had none of those, on its own. For only a few... read full review »
