    Why is every company in this country absolutely ******* useless?!!

    Booked a holiday with Thompsons - I dont normally use package deals, but I saw one I liked and thought "why not".

    They've just sent me a really stroppy email asking why I haven't paid the 2nd deposit, even though they've written to me!
    Of course I've received no such letter.

    So I ring them up.....no answer.

    I try looking for an online contact.....nothing, or even better an online payment facility....nothing!

    So I ring again...no answer.....I ring again...no answer.


    ******* hopeless ****wits.

    Every single time I try and do ANYTHING with ANY company in this ******* country it's impossible.

          What's St. Patrick's Day go to do with it ?
          Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

          C.S. Lewis

              Off topic on post two. Fantastic.

              Although the blokes have to realise that the right thing to do is to let the woman rant. There is nothing that can be done to fix the problem, so don't even try.

              Just sit back, appear to be listening, and make sympathetic noises from time to time.

                  I assume there's no local store available?
                  If your company is the best place to work in, for a mere £500 p/d, you can advertise here.

                    Yous are all very funny

                    I'm putting Thomsons on my list - they can **** off if they think they're getting another penny out of me.

                    I just got through to them after an hour and a ******* half, and I get this indian bloke who I could hardly understand...and he wouldn't accept my card cause it was my husbands!!! He has to ring back with it!!!!

                    So they can gan and get f*cked - I'm cancelling. I hope they go bust, useless c*nts.
