Speaking as an ex employee of Arriva buses I would say reject any free tickets etc and go via the legal channels. They as a company are complete gutless turds and won't want to be facing court.

It's goes something like this. On the 22/04/2013 I moved from Swalec to BG for electric. On the 22/04/2013 Swalec gave BG a meter reading of 1598 as an 'actual' reading as per my final statement dated 07/05/2013. Just called them up for my refund and the tune has changed Swalec are now saying that it was a wrong reading and that the correct reading as of 22/04/2013 is 2221 and that no refund is owed, I shouldn't have had the statement and that I should 'forget' it Been on chat twice asking questions and have answered nothing, just saying they 'don't send statements for prepay customers' which is odd as my statement says Equipower Standard (KEY METER) Can anyone make sense of the statement below. I've been looking at it all morning to the point where nothing is making any sense. Much thanks. Pre Payment meter. Total from last statement - We owe you £180.90 (credit) Payments 18 March £10.00 20 March £30.00 3 April £25.00 21 April £5.00 Less your total payments, thank you £70.00 (credit) Your electric use this period - actual Standard Energy 990E - 1598 (608 Units) Your electric charges this period 608 units @ 16.8p £102.14 Total before VAT £102.14 VAT 5% £5.10 Total charges this period including VAT £107.24 Total for your account £106.93 (credit)

Currently going through a accident claim with my ex employers. Long story short, solicitor gave me advise NOT to accept an offer of 2k (pending a medical) which I accepted on her advise, now I'm being told that because I didn't accept that offer within 21 days I could now be looking at a reduced offer of 1,200 1,500.... I wasn't told about the 21 day clause nor that I could loose money as a result of non acceptance! Is this fair?

Must be Pepsi's policy to ignore their customers! I feel a claim coming on!!

Without this thread I would have dropped myself right in the doo doo should I have needed to claim so thanks. Lets hope others see this and don't fall foul to these charlatans!!

Glad I took time to read this, was just about to buy boiler insurance from them!!! Phew!

I can't figure out if the £280.80 is a debt I owe them or wages they own me..?

Can someone have a ganda at this and tell me what it means in terms of wages. This was my final wage slip and can't figure out if it's something I owe them or something they owed me? http://i53.tinypic.com/120iiyh.jpg

Sent an email today with the letter of intent.... let's see what happens!

I know it's going slightly off topic but does anyone here think the licence provides good value for money? Just wondering..

Bloody hell, that's a handy website.... wonder if anyone else has used it, would like to know how the procedure works etc. Cheers Conniff!!

Cheers Conniffs The 'deadline with letter before action' sounds good, would probably go for a template if there is one knocking around. Not sure about the £30 on-line claim, what solicitor charges that for a claim, sounds pretty cheap?! Thanks

Complaint made to ASA, tired of wasting my time!

Support for Chrome?

Still nothing, not even an acknowledgement.... I'm getting a nasty whiff of arrogance and I don't like it!!!

Oh sh*t!!!

That's really bad news, never nice getting tucked up Why have the garage said a new engine, do you have bottom end rattle? How long did you run the motor before the knock started.. is there any excess smoke from the exhaust, have you got a oil/water mix in the expansion tank, what does the engine oil look like, clean, dirty, strong smell of derv etc... I don't understand why it's a replacement engine jobbie for just a crank unless the head has cracked causing a derv/oil mix which will invariably reduce the viscosity of the engine oil causing all sorts of problems...

Yeah 7 days is fair although no reply from Mr Moody's or his assistant yet!

How long should I give these numpties to reply before I start looking for alternative help?

Insurance is a joke! My renewal has come through with 10 NCB fully comp £336 it was £328 last year, if I do a fresh quote with the SAME insurers it comes out at £274. Work that one out!!

That's smashing!! Thanks cerberusalert

I've had a look around and can't find the main man's address. If anyone comes across it could you please post this up. There are some people on MSE that are also having the same problems so his address will help us all. Got to say it's shocking they can be allowed to run such a shoddy competition!!!

Hey all, some of you may know that Pepsi are or were running a promo: 4 Festival tickets or £300... Nice! I was lucky on April 30 I WON £300 the bad news is I'm yet to receive the money In the T&C they say 'someone will be in touch within 28 days to confirm details' and in another section of the T&C it says 'you have 28 days to claim your prize' well I waited 26 days with NO call from anyone at Pepsi so I dropped them a letter via Special Delivery (they had the letter) asking where was my call and please consider this letter as a claim for the prize. 3 weeks passed with nothing so I sent another letter. 2 weeks passed when I had a letter back saying the promo company had tried to call but the call went unanswered (cobblers, phone has been on 24/7 ever since!!) and that they would try again soon which they haven't. I'm now pretty pi&&ed off and in the process of sending another letter. My question is, would anyone start talking Trading Standards in an effort to get their attention? I mean what is the point of running a comp and then make your customers/winners wait an unacceptable amount of time for their prize? One things for sure, Pepsi/Britvic can stick their products right up their bums after this farce!

HARD CASH. Nobody at the fair was accepting cards!

Ok, so in short im shafted? And just to clarify, the sodding thing cost 179.99.... Not so cheap!
