Bought one printer,Smart tank 5105,had to take it back because the cartridge wouldnt move to load it.Now i`m taking back the exact replacement.Cartridge moves so i can load it but a software problem in the electronics wont make it work.Its a pure joke.

I`m in 2 minds whether to get my already debt loaded credit card out to fork out £700 for a ticket to see Oasis at Wembley after missing them at Manchester Heaton Park.But you know what,after reading the hard luck stories on here about viagogo purely ripping people off,i cant risk it.

Just looked for a compilation vinyl album by band Magazine that i first had in the 80s called After The Fact.Discogs have several on offer,even Amazon have one but this one doesnt.Too rare for RareVinyl.com it seems,but Amazon have one.

I am sorry you were disappointed not to find the title you wanted on our site and have rated us based purely on that. We'd love for you to expereince the service we provide as what we buy and sell changes daily and we work hard to give the very best service at all times. Rare records are what we focus on and clearly by their very nature they come and go and most sell within minutes of being added to the site. Most titles are 'one only' in stock at that moment in time. Obviously you won't find it for sale until we stock another one when it sells to another collector. I think the album you wanted is this one which was restocked last week? https://uk.rarevinyl.com/products/m-i-a-punk-after-the-fact-us-vinyl-lp-album-record-fsr011-866301
Since such albums are no longer in print, it is a case of getting in quick and if you subscribe or add items to a wish list, we'll notify you when items come back into stock so you don't miss them. If we can help further please let us know. Thanks for visiting our site, Cathryn

Twice i`ve had issues with this company on two occaisions.Sending me the wrong documents for a start.Then sending the right document too late which delays me working longer.The representitive on the phone actually asked me not to work using my car so they could claim for my loss of earnings whilst i was waiting for the car to put into the workshop.It only had two dents on the door thats all and i told him that.I`m paying for these clowns to be more competent than this.

Review of Manchester Airport


Rated 1 out of 5 stars

I visit Manchester Airport regularly doing pick ups and drop offs as a job.Since they brought in the barrierless entry and exit points where you can pay by phone or online it got me worried.I know i will get nailed with a penalty one day from forgetting to pay the £6 charge.That day has come and i will get the £60 fine.The barriers where you pay £6 were a far more convenient way to pay but the cash grabbers have devised a way to maximise profits and sting you if you forget the charge.Much more k ching for the horrible profiteers.

Ordered and received a guitar from GAK.Good points were,efficient processing of my order,good email contact and swift delivery free next day.Instrument pristine as i expected.
Bad points.The previous day before i paid for the instrument i rang their sales team.When they answered the call this person seemed very impatient.After he explained that i was to contact the warehouse by email all i was trying to do was to enquire about changing my order then he slammed the phone down.If i hadn`t paid my deposit i would definately shopped elsewhere.I know people are busy and a bit stressed but theres no excuse to do that.I was very annoyed to be honest.They`re lucky they are getting 3 stars,but i`m happy with my purchase.

I'm so sorry to hear about this, John! This is not the kind of service we want to offer our customers! I've have passed this feedback over to our Customer Service, Shop and Mail Order managers for their consideration and I'll drop you a quick email now just to follow up on this. I'm really glad to hear you're happy with the Gold Top! They are truly stunning guitars!
Kind regards,

NO BAG!

I didnt like the fact that when i collected my records they weren`t put in a bag.I felt a bit vulnerable to anyone snatching it walking out of the store carrying over a £100 worth of records in a cardboard box.I would have felt more comfortable had i been given a bag with the records inside.I will ask for that next time IF i shop at hmv again.

Cant understand the low ratings.Clear score is very good at monitoring my credit score and gives me valuable information every month.I applied £13,000 finance for a car at a car showroom and it was allowed instantly thanks to the credit ratings shown on Experian but also shown here

Utter callous practise of punishing people by sending parking charge notices.I NEVER accepted and NEVER WILL accept the parking notice i got but i still paid by extortion the £60 charge.As far as i`m concerned that money is still mine and should be paid BACK into my account.After giving them honest reasons for not being able to pay they still rejected my appeal.How can i pay when their rubbish payment machine refused my card? Euro scam car parks

Review of Holmes Carpets


Rated 1 out of 5 stars

Need to sack their impatient staff.

When i went to the shop,they were nice professional people.Then they sent this grump around to my house to give me an estimate for a new laminate floor.He came round 3 hours late on the day arranged then rang me to say he was outside.So i opened the door after he rang me on my mobile and got this really miserable strop complaining that i didnt hear him knock.There`s a knocker on the door,why didnt he use that? Anyway he came in and just said here`s the wood samples and started the measuring.I cannot tolerate impoliteness from a company i`m paying to do work on my house.Someone ranting at me my door where my neighbours could have heard.So i had a go at him and he left and he had the audacity to question my attitude.Just stupid because i was the customer.

The vinyl is good standard as should be but was surprised to find out it was orange.They should inform customers of this but they didnt with this.Its harder to see the fluff when it lands on it.Dont particularly like any coloured vinyl,but overall,pleased with it.
