Stupid little things that bug you

Evri.

They send emails giving a delivery time slot then another later one then miss that. Or, as happened to Mrs laser today, then send an apology for the delay in delivering it and advising further delivery information will be sent tomorrow a couple of hours after the package had already been delivered. Most times they leave the package on the doorstep without even knocking.

A couple of months ago she needed to return a defective item to QVC and Evri sent her an email confirming the date and time of collection. Nobody turned up and they sent another email lying they tried to collect it but it seemed to have already been collected. This happened twice more and each time QVC had to email a new returns label because they're only valid for one day. Evri's only contact availability is with an AI assistant that either repeated the false information of replied it didn't understand the query. The QVC person she spoke to admitted they've had recurring problems with this kind of bullshit from Evri and arranged for DPD to pick it up which they did without a problem. Why QVC persist in using Evri is a mystery when their own employee admitted they're shit.

And in a nutshell you have summed up not only theme parks but Manchester Fuckinairport. It is in the interests if both to have queues because people will pay extra to avoid them. If there were no queues they'd have to invent another reason to fleece you.

Manchester Fucking Airport wrote the book when it comes to fleecing customers, especially when it comes to screwing people for short term parking. I think it's now a fiver just to drop off or pick up a passenger.

Last time I was over my mate came to pick me up at the airport. I saw him pull in so I ran over and jumped in his car. When he tried to exit the barrier wouldn't raise. A voice came on and said that he wasn't allowed to pick up passengers there and it would cost him 100 quid to get out.
The voice eventually said if he agrees to pay right now he can let him away wit 50 quid.
 
My missus having such a crap sense of humour. Never gets when I’m trying to be self-deprecating, always ends up taking it seriously, same if I mock complain about something to emphasise how futile it is actually complaining, again she gets annoyed thinking I’m actually complaining or blaming her/someone else. My fault for marrying a foreigner I guess, they don’t get the Brit sense of humour.

WOW you actually received a parcel from them, my last 3 have been ‘Lost’ and had to re-order .


‘Ripen at home fruit’, what the fucks that all about, an extra 30-40p for ripe fruit, is it a result of ‘Covid’ or ‘the Russians’ why we’re getting hard as rock fruit ?

This country being infiltrated by “Vikings” it seems, every other fucker I see these day has a beard, some weird shit hairdo and tattoos, oh and big biceptz innit, insecure needy fuckers.

Just last week I was on hold with HMRC for about 35 minutes. Got connected and the guy says "System is down, we can't access files, you'll have to call back". I asked when did the computer crash, "About 2 hours ago". "Then why the fuck have I been on hold for 1/2 hour"? Then got cut off.

I'm talking to Argos customer services about returning a faulty kettle.
Lady -"Our driver will collect sometime between 7 am and 7 pm"
Me - "So I have to wait in all day just to return a kettle"?
Lady -"No sir, our driver will text you 15 minutes before he arrives"
Me - "How does that help, I still have to wait in all day for the text"?
Lady -"Sorry sir, I don't understand"

Bluemoon page loading. Just as you think it's loaded and go to press on a thread, something happens and the page moves down slightly further. If you press a thread too quickly, you end up missing the thread you originally wanted and landing on a different one.

First World problems, but it is a bit annoying when you want to see an update, but you're too impatient for it to load properly!

Rugby league too.

They’re all running over, chest-bumping, high-fiving and almost celebrating when they win a penalty or force a knock-on these days.

I find it bloody pathetic!

And it surely doesn’t work? In my eyes, if it happened by a team I was playing against I’d feel better that my team’s standing makes the opposition want to celebrate nothings. It would give me a boost to see that shit.
 
When my credit card gets blocked for no reason and the bank assistant doesn't want to unblock it immediately.
Talked to united bank customer service on this number and they said it is pretty normal procedure.
Anyway it is very annoying, cause usually it happens in the most inconvenient time.
