no-body is reporting a crime. Police are not interested. -
Caught shoplifting
ashmk replied to gingerninja101's topic in Retail loss Prevention/Other shoplifting allegations.
Can you imagine how much time and effort not to mention money it would cost to search cctv for you nicking in the past when they don't even know that you have? The security guard was putting the frighteners up you. I wouldn't worry about it but i'd probably stay away for a bit. Stop nicking stuff! -

Refusal of cheque when card machine down
ashmk replied to Cherriesju's topic in General Consumer Issues
Send the cheque and call that it. It's their look out after that.You have been seen as trying. Send it recorded. -
Hello Buddy, While it's with Marstons the CSA won't want to help, they think their monkeys will scare you into paying so won't entertain you. You need to keep fobbing marstons off until they hand it back. They normally do, in my experience, after 3 attempts to collect send the case back to the CSA then they will want to talk again. Marstons can't force entry but they will just walk in if you leave the door unlocked or a window. They may try and levy on anything outside if you don't let them in. Keep items of value locked away. They may even try and levy on a random car, tell them it's not yours. They may try to tell you to prove it. This is nonsense, they can check who owns the car quite easily but it's a tatic they like to use. Basically, don't let them in. Don't even open the door. Speak through a window or letter box. Tell them it's disputed and your waiting for them to hand the case back. They are not idiots, if you keep telling them that they will get the message and just hand it back as they know they are wasting their time. They are not a threat. When it's handed back the lines of communication will become open again but you must speak to them. They don't let go. Good luck. ps, self employed is the way to go, they don't really bother with self employed people as it's to hard for them to chase.

Use your insurance legal cover, let them deal with it. It's what you pay them for.

Start a Visa debit chargeback. Bet they will soon send the box.

Currys love to milk customers. And the cheek to charge for recycling when all they do it send it all to auction and make on it anyway!

Amazon Prime Video - is it worth it
ashmk replied to robint's topic in Consumer TV and Radio Listings
The quality of the own made shows are not as good as Netflix. I recently watched 'The man in the high castle' pilot episode and felt it was lacking something. They obviously dont have the budget Netflix has. I decided not to continue after the trial. -
Sold my car privately, buyer threatening court action

I wouldn't waste a stamp on this. It would be interesting to know if it'a still got the original gearbox or if they switched it. Free gearbox. -
bayv - help please
ashmk replied to newbie92's topic in BrightHouse and other "rent to own" Hire Purchase Stores
Don't be afraid. They have no power, its your home and you hold the power. They just have a bully boy attuide, as soon as their attuide changes tell them to leave then call the police if they do not. If you can, video record them the whole time they are there, you dont have to hold the camera. Lean it against something. If they do get shirty you have evidence for a claim. Don't be afraid of them, it's all hot air. -

Oyster card, the most 'accidentally' used card in the world. -
I'm shut down for maintenance at 4am and don't reboot till 8am so it does not affect me.

I know it didn't go down this way but for future reference never NEVER accept Paypal and allow collection. If you cannot prove the item was delivered ebay will refund 100% of the time. Collection should be cash or bank transfer only

What would you do.Helping someone sometimes backfires.Advice needed.
ashmk replied to Tawnyowl's topic in Bear Garden
Hi Tawny. Put some cat litter on the oil, cheap stuff, Tesco value price. It's great at soaking up oil. After you have got rid of the car you can use a product called OT8 and a pressure washer to remove the stain. It's also worth noting that new blocks are only 38p each in B&Q so you can just switch them out.
