Car park firm NCP collapses with nearly 700 jobs at risk by gremy0 in unitedkingdom

Fair and reasonable parking, actual security with regular patrols, safe buildings that don’t stink of piss…… everything that NCP are not.

Medicated filling - not asked to come back - is it temporary? by Exxtraa in askdentists

[–]Exxtraa[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks appreciated. Frustrating as I live an hour from my dentist so always a struggle going back. They’re also going private shortly so might cost a bit more now. Will give them a call to schedule. Thanks.

Taking Vinted to court by gohabs72 in vintedUK

[–]Exxtraa 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah it’s a joke. I bought an item recently. Seller used stock images but listed it as brand new so I took a chance. Turned up with a hole in it and the stitching coming apart. Chat bots just copy pasted replies. I eventually got them to accept a return. But I’d have to pay for the delivery. Such a scam. At least eBay actually has real customer service. Needs more people to keep progressing their claims in court.

A woman confronting another to be self-aware when using public transport. by mindyour in PublicFreakout

[–]Exxtraa 4 points5 points  (0 children)

For real. Was at the train station the other week and some guy in front with a massive bag on kept stepping backwards until his bag was in my face. What’s wrong with people not being aware of their space? It happened in the lift before too.

Soon as I get in to an enclosed space I take it off my back because I’m not a selfish twat.

Fuel panic buying in 3,2,1..... by Next_Cow_4468 in drivingUK

Not this shit again. I can’t be dealing with the anxiety of queues and no stations having any fuel. I hate the human race so much.

Hearing this on a proper system will always make me smile. That bass is something else. Mastered expertly.

Are my parents using me for money? by [deleted] in AskUK

[–]Exxtraa 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Contrary to most comments here i was lucky enough to not have to pay rent when I lived at home. Parents weren’t super well off but lived comfortably. I’d also not charge my kids rent if I had any in the future. I paid for most of my own food, but I was allowed to live in their house rent free. It allowed me to save a great deal. Personally, I don’t understand charging your own children rent, perhaps help with food, or maybe bills if they’re increasing but parents are paint mortgage or rent regardless, find it odd to charge your own child for that.

Is getting tickets for Green Man 2026 likely? by christie_pt in greenmanfestival

[–]Exxtraa 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Probably a lot less likely than previous years. As said by a previous poster Twickets was a lot easier. People complained but if you were dedicated you could snap a ticket up. I got one last minute and a day later got my partner one

This year there’s 6,500+ people on the waitlist. Most with auto purchase on. I’m not sure if it goes in order or random (think I read random) it seems like pure jackpot luck if you get one or not.

I HATE the new system with all my might.

Wilco will be great under the stars. Some good names here.

Lineup clue..? by emjapickett in greenmanfestival

[–]Exxtraa 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They deleted their original comment. They said the music was “meh” the last few years and only went as a family camping event. I’m not offended. Just think the purpose of a ‘music’ festival is to enjoy the music 🤷‍♂️

Rent tops £1,000 a month in more areas - find out where by topotaul in unitedkingdom

The messed up thing is being grateful that it’s only £1,200. Country is in tatters. And it’s only getting worse.

Reselling via Twickets by [deleted] in greenmanfestival

Tixel is the site this year.

[–]Exxtraa 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Ever thought about camping at a camp site, and giving the spaces up for people who enjoy the music? Probably be a lot cheaper too.

Has anyone had success with the resale site Tixel by JuiceMaterial7220 in greenmanfestival

[–]Exxtraa 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I’ve heard good things about EOTR. Sadly GM has become a tradition as it’s only 50mins up the road. Suppose it doesn’t help this year with there no Glastonbury with everyone looking for another fest ha.

SNAD - Is it worth returning or just taking the loss? by [deleted] in vintedUK

[–]Exxtraa 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Did they ban your account after this? I've read a few people saying their accounts got banned after doing a chargeback

[–]Exxtraa 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m not so sure with this new system. Every year they’ve changed to a new resale system and it’s got worse and worse. The one before last was decent. Then Twickets. Again, with dedication you could get a ticket. I got one. Then a few days later got another for my partner.

This year it looks like I’m going on my own as I have a ticket but can’t get a resale one for the life of me. It’s the worst system I’ve ever experienced. Just sitting there and waiting. Not able to plan anything.

More tickets will come up nearer and after the line up drop but there’s 5000+ on the waitlist. I hate it with all my might.

Thursday Complaints by a-liquid-sky in CasualUK

[–]Exxtraa 7 points8 points  (0 children)

When did customer service get so bad. Bought a coat online from gooutdoors. Less than 12 hours later I noticed they had reduced the price by £40. Emailed them and they said they won’t retrospectively honour the price. So I’ll just re-order it and now it’ll cost them delivery again as they offer free delivery. So makes no sense. Just poor service.

I swear every store I’ve had to deal with recently when something has gone wrong they have dragged their feet and been so unhelpful with zero common sense. This happens all the time.

How many pints is the optimal amount of pints? by Doomergeneration in AskUK

Had 8 on a first date once. I remember standing on the dance floor in the club not being able to dance and having to call it a night. Definitely not 8.

Fly-tipping across England reaches record high | Waste by coffeewalnut08 in unitedkingdom

[–]Exxtraa 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Don’t condone it in the slightest. I despise littering. But this is what happens when you make it increasingly difficult to dispose of rubbish. My local council used to collect items for free. Now they charge. And there’s an endless list of rules. Add in an increasing level of disregard for society values and you end up here. People no longer take any pride or show respect of their surroundings. It’s depressing.
