    Reporting someone to trading standards

    How is it done?

    I've just had a leaflet through the door – Pizza City “Pizza Delivery Specialist”
    Well, if they are Pizza ‘specialists’ then how come the leaflet lists: Kebabs, Tandoori roast chicken, Burgers, Pasta, and Fried chicken?

    They claim to use 100% Mozzarella Cheese, 100% Fresh Dough and to be 100% Halal too.

    Bastards.
    How did this happen? Who's to blame? Well certainly there are those more responsible than others, and they will be held accountable, but again truth be told, if you're looking for the guilty, you need only look into a mirror.

      You read the leaflets that come through your door? How do you find the time? I just recycle them.

        Sounds more like a job for the Advertising Standards Authority.

        I complained recently that having received an email from play.com saying "Everything £5 Sale", I tried to buy a PS3 but it was over £5.

        Initially, they suggested that they could not run the advert again. Now they have backtracked and said that since play.com sell so many things, it's unreasonable to think that "Everything £5 Sale" means that everything is £5 or under.

          It's a bit like that film from a few years ago where there were scenes in the trailer that weren't in the final film. And they were the good bits.

            I see no problem with this.

            They make tulipe kebabs, moggie tandoori roast chicken, ratburgers, mouldy pasta and rabbit fried chicken. They don't even make pizza. They deliver the products they have cooked very late and cold.

            However, get them to fetch a pizza from Domino's and then aha! They know how to do that 'cos it is what they've been doing all summer on mopeds.

            Their leaflet makes no claims about any other specialities.
