    You don't want to do that! You tell them what you really think. :thumbsup:

    I did that recently with Wickes. They kept pestering me to write a review - so I did :whistle:. I rated them one star and explained that I had only given them one star because the system didn't allow you to give no stars. They took my order for some paint and took over two weeks to tell me they didn't have it in stock and couldn't tell me when they might get it in - if ever!!! Then had the cheek to ask me whether I wanted my money back. The review was not complimentary :old:

      Both Mr S and I have old phones @john558 and Tesco's didn't have a problem with that, they've also been very helpful in sorting out any issues we have. They are also cheaper than many other companies.

            Don't need a new phone just get another symcard and phone up to activate it with another phone,We always have a landline as well as a mobile, don't use my mobile for phoning much because i got pay as you go with 3, it's a bit cheaper than some, most of the time i text people, it's cheaper if you don't want to stay on the phone for long.

                I will probably get a new phone with a clearer/larger screen as the eyesight is not as good now.

                  Looks like Trump just won't leave us be. He is now imposing high tariffs on aluminum and other Canadian goods and saying we are cheating them. Yet we import 10x from them what is exported to them! Talk about a jacka$$ ! upload_2020-8-11_8-23-10.png

                      To be fair to Trump. The other day he didn't say kids are immune to Covid.

                      He said that they're almost immune :rolleyespink: :doh:. Is that something like being just a little bit pregnant? :doh:

                        Well, it probably wont, the idea is to make american stuff cheaper than imports.

                        But, you get a lot of bluff from Trump, I often wonder why people take what he says too seriously, its often just throwing an idea into the mix to see what happens.

                        He did recently say kids dont get Covid in the same way adults do, in an attempt to get kids back at school, immediately his facebook page was shut down, and I think Twitter also, due to him spreading untrue information.

                        So what was the british government geezer on the TV saying this morning?
                        Basically the same thing, in order to get kids back to school.;)

                        Its not whats said its who says it, and if you upset the media they will murder you.:biggrin:

                          He only said that after they panned him for saying they're almost immune to it. It was his way of trying to excuse what he said. A person in his position should know that he needs to be careful about how he says things but he has a whole lot of staff trying to clean up after him. His 'experts' contradict him all the time :heehee:

                            I've said it before, Trump ain't no politician.;)
                            I dont think he has a medical degree either.
                            Which is why the says what he thinks.

                            Politicians only say what keeps them safe, basically nothing, if they said what they really thought they wouldn't last long these days.

                                Certainly agree with that! :blue thumb:

                                That's the problem. I don't reckon he thinks :heehee:. Mike is correct - but put more simply 'engage brain before opening mouth!'. :loll:
