Hi ,
It looks like you're using an ad blocker.



The revenue generated from the adverts on the site is a critical part of our funding - and it's because of these ads that I can offer the site for free. But using the site for free AND blocking the ads doesn't feel like a great thing to do, which is why this box is so large and inconvenient. Some sites will completely block your access, but I'm not doing that - I'm appealing to your good nature instead. Did you know that you can allow ads for specific sites, whilst still blocking them on others?

Thanks,
Ian Williams aka Fetch
or for an ad-free Fetcheveryone experience!

I think it would take a special level of incompetence to beat npower.

Parcelforce. Why take my big parcel to the shit post office in town with no staff and big queues and expensive parking when they can take it to the nice sub post office round the corner with the nice lady and no queues? Wankers. Not only that but they phoned me with some incomprehensible text message saying they were going to deliver (no time given) and offering the option to deliver it somewhere else. Obviously then they delivered it in the only 45 minutes I was out all day...
At least it was in my name so I didn't have to take 57 bits of ID into the town PO TWICE like last time, that seriously pissed me off.

People who are doing word (or excel) updates for a group of you on screen - where they type so bloody fast that virtually every word is done wrong and they have to go back and retype it, sometimes more than once. AARRRGGHHHH.

OI, IF YOU SLOWED DOWN A BIT YOU WOULDN'T HAVE TO KEEP FUCKING GOING BACK AND CORRECTING AND WOULD BE FASTER OVERALL.

Just been watching this for 2 hours, why does no one, (including me) speak up. Jeeze...I need a beer...

Going back to N Power did anyone notice the story the other day about a guy who got a bill for over half a billion quid and that they would be adjusting his direct debit to £53m a month !! Shows how fucked up their systems are.

Supermarket car washes - I don't want to be accosted every time I park the bloody car!

Frequently I'll stop for a sandwich when I'm travelling using a works pool car, and I always get approached.

They always look at you if you're at fault just for saying "No"!
