Signed up for a Climote through this company. Long story short, in all the years dealing with tradesmen coming through my home fitting boilers, doing large renovations, extensions..I have never had to ask anyone to leave my home within 20 minutes of them walking through the door!! Five Weeks...

Black Forest We usually head to Freiburg which is a beautiful , good sized town in the black forest. There is plenty to do in and around there and europapark is not far. also the titisee has some great water parks with childrens and adults areas. is is also quite inexpensive to go into the...

Thanks for the advice! Hi ... Thank you so much for the great advice. We are lucky that we will be there and back before bastille day so hopefully no big traffic problems. Motorway is no problem. We hire a car every year once on the continent and are used to most european motorways. So...

Hi all, wondering if anyone could help me with the above. Was going to fly to france for our three week camping holiday but flights and car hire work out about 1800. Just found tesco vouchers worth 400 euro with Irish ferries whicth means we can get to cherbourg for 800 euro return. It works...

Hot Tub I'ver been looking into getting a hot tub myself and was wondering if you've gone ahead with this inflattable idea. Don't know much about them myself but after using an outdoor hot tub in the snow abroad. I think they are great for relaxing the muscles and getting some fun outdoors...

Yes Gnubbit...I think that's why I was so shocked with the helpline...ie being hung up on when I asked for a supervisor...and the supervisor eventually calling me back and treating me like I was some kind of dodgey character....and I mean in the worst possible sense! I love Ikea...I lived in...

Hi All. Thanks for the replies. Even the ones about me being some kind of 'slovenly maniac' customer...with no receipt etc. were at least amusing!!!:p I'm glad to report that, as expected, I got a very good hearing out by the customer services supervisor and all has been resolved. Yes...

Thanks Staples! I'm pretty sure when I go down to the shop and show them the chairs and explain they will remember. I have no reason to lie about holding onto these three chairs so long...it doesn't make sense! But I will let you know how it goes. Thanks again staples. I was starting to...

And Magpie, I only bought three chairs at the time because that's all they had in stock...as I didn't want to buy something that they wouldn't be getting in again....I checked with the staff at the time to make sure they were not being discontinued and I was told "No they're not being...

Thanks for the replies but I think my request may have gotten lost in translation. I am actually looking for advice on.... ..... my rights regarding faulse advertising of a particular product.... not..... for advice on how to behave........(I think my mom sure raised me well already!!!)...

Thanks for your reply! I used to love this company and have spent thousands of euros in their shops over many years. Depending on what happens tomorrow I also am preparing to end my 'love affair' with this shop! Does anyone else have any advice re my rights etc. in this matter? Thanks.

Sounds like a lot of money. We paid 5k for knocking down a load bearing wall, installing rsj, moving a boiler, new radiators and very large velux window, if this comparison helps

Bought a Stockholm Table and Three Chairs in January. They have been out of stock ever since. Obviously three chairs are no good to anyone!! I checked at the time if they would be getting more in and I was told "yes". Oh the joys of Ikea (ie. you don't have to buy everything at once but - buy...

Saw this estate driving by and the houses look really nice. What I don't understand is the reasoning behind buying "a brand spaking new house". As a first time buyer you wouldn't be paying extra tax on a second hand property in this price range anyway. We bought a second hand " new" house...

we stayed on a camping site in a tenth once with two kids and a dog in wicklow for two weeks between rental properties to avoid this problem. I took holidays and my husband commuted by car to Dublin every day. It was a great time actually and we saved a fortune!!!

Re: Cant sell house in Eire, now living in Oz, advice please? you should get your estate agent to put the house up for rent perhaps at least your mortgage will be paid and you can hold on to your investment. i believe as long as you have owned the house over two years you are entitled to rent...

i have no shares with nobody not even irish banks. I am however seriously comtemplating getting some Irish Bank shares now. Am I crazy or does anybody think along these lines....I have just received my davy telephone share dealing account application in the post...this takes three days or so...

I'm also with PTSB and bought 18 months ago. My rate has gone from 2.2 per cent and now I believe its 4.75% tracker rate - big jump for us. Caled PTSB last week and asked them to give me a better deal on their published fixed rate and have been offered a fixed rate of 4.95% for 3 years...

Not sure if this is the right place but just came off introductory mortgage rate and have just switched to tracker. We are considering going on a fixed 10 year rate if we can get PTSB to match the lowest market rate of 4.99 before the rate goes up again. can someone direct me to the latest...

Re: Credit Card Company Says The Didn't Get Cheque No, I've spoken several times to a manager who initially confirmed after making several cheques with payments section that they never got the cheque. She's the one who advised me to send in copy of cheque which I have done.....I don't want to...
