    Front derailleur on my bike got knocked skew somehow. Stopped working properly, and the adjustments didn't work properly either, until I figured that out. TA at myself for not spotting it more quickly. :o

    From out there on the moon, international politics look so petty. You want to grab a politician by the scruff of the neck and drag him a quarter of a million miles out and say, ‘Look at that, you son of a bitch’.

    What the hell is wrong with Vodafone? :mad:

    First they mess with my credit AND my voicemail (which I can reset on my own, but only through 171, which isn't free of charge, and it's a problem they've created and it's happened four times already), then they give me wrong information to the queries I posted in "Talk to" and they stop replying altogether, then they withdraw from Boards but they tell you to try their live chat, and although it's not even 4pm they tell you there's nobody available because they're only open until 10PM. :mad: And my credit balance isn't coming up, I'm getting either blank pages or error messages, and on more than one browser. I'VE HAD IT WITH THEM!!! :mad::mad::mad::mad::mad:

    Try cancelling a broadband account with them. Almost 3 months it took. Un-f*cking-believable. Worst customer service I have ever dealt with and that is saying something.

    The end of my 2 year Tesco Mobile contract was in May, and I had sworn blind that I'd change service provider as soon as I got chance, due to fairly constant loss of network coverage.

    However, each mobile provider seems to be as inept and customer un-friendly as the next one, if reports on Boards and elsewhere are anything to go by.

    TA: Tesco Mobile are rubbish.
    TA: All others are equally rubbish.

    I've had no trouble cancelling any contract like that in years. I ring the person and am told I can't cancel over the phone, I have to write a letter or email someone etc... I just tell them that after this call right now I will be stopping the direct debit which kinda forces them to do it then and there or they put me onto to someone who will.

    Nothing good to say about any of them but Vodafone are definitely the worst. TA that people keep.signing up for them so their service never changes.

    Red Dwarf used to be a great show. At least up to Series 6. Series 7 & 8 were kind of poor. The reboot was worse. But now they're only advertising car breakdown services!!! What a kick in the teeth to a once-great legacy!

    That accent so many singers put on now. I can't articulate it other than the way "s" is pronounced "sh". But there are loads of other annoying elements. It's horrible!
