Things you want to share with P&B

Work have decided to exchange my PC for a laptop, the migration is being done today. I can guarantee this is going to be a clusterfuck and will involve hours of no access to P & B and no doubt endless amounts of data and programs missing when the changeover is done.

Joy.

Never use online retailer Very. They’re well dodgy and full of utter shit.

 

I ordered a fridge from them. Paid in full upfront, including a charge to take away my broken one. Delivery was set for Saturday. Saturday morning I got a phone call from the courier company saying they couldn’t deliver it because Very hadn’t sent it to them.

 

I called Very, who said it was because the fridge wouldn’t be in stock until the 23rd of November! Daft useless c***s. I cancelled it and to be fair have received a fairly quick refund, save for the charge for taking away the old fridge, which they’ve somehow forgotten to refund to me. I’ll be on to them later to get that sorted. Sticking with the replacement/loan fridge my friend gave me, the one that smelled of cats. Should have just stuck with this one until I was a bit more flush anyway. I think I sort of panicked due to the cat smell, but my cleaning efforts seem to have removed that.

 

Seems I’ve gotten a bit lucky as well, as a Google search reveals that Very are absolute hated by pretty much everyone, with abysmal scores on Trust Pilot and any other site where reviews can be left. Most of them mentioned shite customer service, but the folk I spoke to were quite nice and understanding and got things sorted pretty quick.

 

Anyway, the good news stops there. The bank have taken a sum which is almost as much as the cost of the fridge from my account to cover a chargeback they did from a payday loan company that was supposedly a mistake. Another phone call beckons!

Alright lads so I received my first ever warning from the mods and tbh I don't know why. They said it was because of 'pointless alias- not helping' can anyone tell me what this means as I have no clue, cheers!

Its your Melanius Mallarkey alias. Youv posted so much shite under it the mods have had enough.

 

I post enough shite on this account I don't need an alias to do it however if I genuinely got a warning for being an alias idk what's going on as this is not an alias but oh well

I don't understand, if he meant someone else then why did I get a warning?

What did you post and what was your previous username? Without this information there is no way of advising you.

P.S. If I was returning after a banning I wouldn't make a big fuss about a warning.
