Decent ad blockers?
I know site use adverts as a source of revenue, but there are some (in particular my local newspaper site) where there are so many pages take forever to load
Whilst there are lots available, I don’t want to end up with one that causes more problems than it cures
(and hint, how about Which doing a feature)
Beware Tesco MultiBuys
Personal experience has lead me to ask questions about the behaviour of dental practices, both in their behaviour towards people who wish to remain as National Health patients and in their questionable, inconsistent and sometimes dishonest practices commercially. These issues are at the heart of our concerns over the future of our National Health Service.
Easyjet compensation cheques that are sent to overseas based customers are completely useless. They are required to be paid into a UK bank account in the name on the cheque. I have 4 colleagues in our Danish office who have cheques but have no way of cashing them. This is not a fair way for Easyjet to attempt to avoid paying compensation, they should be made to refund to the credit card when they decided it was fine to take the money for the flight in the first place from overseas based passengers.
what is a contractual Parking Charge Notice is this legal. I thought it had to read Parking Fine. I have been told this is a scam. Help!
paying for luggage on flights
CREATE OUR OWN BANKS WITH OUR OWN RULES. EXPECT NO INTEREST OR BE CHARGED INTEREST OR OTHER RIDICULOUS FEES.
IF ENOUGH OF US PULL OUR SAVINGS AND INVESTMENTS OUT OF THE ORTHODOX GREEDY BANKS, THEY’LL MAYBE GET THE MESSAGE. BUT THEN AGAIN THEY PROBABLY COULDN’T GIVE A TOSS WHILE THEY HAVE HUGE CORPORATIONS AND GOVERNMENTS S CLIENTS.
COULD IT BE POSSIBLE?
Opening Saving Accounts
Why are toilet wipes described on their packaging as flushable when water companies say they are not?
If that is the case, why does the packaging state that they can be flushed e.g. on the back of the pack of Sainsbury’s Dispersible Toilet Wipes, it states ‘Breaks up when flushed’.
The letter, informing me that STW had had to unblock drains, goes on to say that we are all going to have to pay the STW’s cost for doing so. I think that this is an injustice as we all have acted on good faith and flushed used wipes, as advised by the pack.
Shouldn’t the Advertising Standards Authority have tested this claim and, if so, would the product not have had to have passed the ASA’s tests for Sainsbury’s to have been able to make this claim for their product?
P.S. Moist toilet tissues are also described as flushable but I don’t know that these are being referred to, in the letter that I have been sent, as the term used is toilet wipe.

Hello James, thanks for sharing your idea for a Convo with us. We covered the problems with ‘flushable’ non-flushable products here: https://conversation.which.co.uk/home-energy/flushables-water-companies-drain-blockages/
All “smart” energy meters should have to speak the same language
Do you think the Government proposals about Nuisance Calls will work significantly?
whilst I am happy to pay for plastic bags in the supermarket if I forget my own, I think retailers have gone too far in extending this to ALL shopping.
In Europe most stores give paper carriers for goods other than food, others give plastic. The blanket ban does not seem to apply.
British stores seem to see it as a moneymaking feature and don’t even stock small bags (BOOTS) any longer. I object to buying a dress, and having it pushed over the counter…all idea of service seems to have gone along with the bags!!
Online shopping becomes even more attractive! Surely shops should be trying to encourage people in, by making the shopping experience a pleasant one, not drive them away by penny pinching and disguising it as a virtue! There is no good reason for retailers not providing bags…American supermarkets have provided strong brown paper bags for years!!
