Scam adverts could cost you!!

Wanted quotes for roof repair takes you to a download where you end up subscribing without knowing in my case to comedy box at £49.00 per month .

Absolute disgrace do not touch with a barge pole unless you want to be scammed .

To provide clarity of my experience, when using this site it appears they allow ads to appear within their website. This can cause confusion leading you to clicking on what appears to be related to getting your quotes when in fact I ended up subscribing to a site which charged £49 a month unless I cancelled within a day.

In response to your reply we asked for a quote all good to here, then an advert overlay which we didn’t realise at the time appeared and all it said your download is ready . I have the screenshot of this.You think you are downloading the quotes and asks for Apple Pay verification at £0.00 then on the next screen it said thanks for subscribing to comedy box at £49.00 per month. Luckily I spotted this and cancelled before being charged.
I however ended up speaking to my bank to ensure that no payment is taken .

The pros beautiful scenery you see a lot of Canada.
Good trips at key places
Excellent tour director Serena very knowledgeable and helpful.
Rocky Mountaineer lovely experience

The cons
Tour was too pacy very little downtime very early start’s
Could have done with extra time in Whistler half a day nowhere near enough.
Two very long coach days
Low grade hotels in some places everything should be at least four star.

Received a charming 2 night stay…

Received a charming 2 night stay voucher . Choice without paying supplement is very poor . Consequently we had to pay a surplus of £190 for an adequate hotel. Have advised the people that purchased this gift for us not to do so again. Will not buy a voucher for anyone else.

Express blind service is not so Express

Ordered my express blind on 26/2/17. Delivery date should have been 14/3/17 a week later I'm still waiting with no update from Laura Ashley.
Rang two days after the expected delivery date asked for call back from the made to measure department, no callback. Rang again today given a complete run round still no expected delivery date.Communication and after sales care can only be described as completely unsatisfactory.Been advised got to wait two days for a senior manager to get back to me regarding my complaint. If the zero stars option was available that's how I would rate this service.
