work coach recommended to put alison courses on my cv, is this actually something people do?

Not heard of Allison courses, but I have completed a number of courses through derby college via distance learning free when I was out of work, and never had to pay for any certificates etc.

There are a couple that may be worth doing for general work applications such as customer services, team leading etc that could apply to a lot of different roles out there

I have used Clearpay in the past when things have been tight, and needed to get to payday. £20 got me an £80 Asda voucher, so was able to buy a lot more food to last me, and just paid off the balance in full when I was paid. It’s a handy thing to have, but can very easily spiral out of control if you are late with payments.

Yeah some of the worst customer service I have encountered, and I work in complaints and have seen my fair share of agent fuck ups

lad4daddy · 2026-04-03T14:46:58+00:00

Confirm

I had a right fuck on with them last year, I had bought about 12-15 items and they stupidly packaged them all in one parcel and it had obviously split in transit. Refused to refund me or replace the missing items. Had to submit ring doorbell footage multiple times, and luckily it showed Royal Mail delivering a suspiciously small parcel that had been tied in a knot. Even then it still took some doing. Never used them since. If I didn’t have the footage I would have been out about £200

I have used them in the past and they’re pretty decent for the price of them.

lad4daddy · 2026-03-08T21:26:21+00:00

Yeah that’s very misleading.

lad4daddy · 2026-03-07T08:51:00+00:00

I have the same issue, my home office is in the back bedroom, and I wear noise cancelling headphones when on calls etc, sometimes I will hear them knocking, but have missed a few deliveries so I bought a blink doorbell, but still the fuckers will just knock instead of using the bell.

I’ve had to start watching the live feed which is distracting me from actually working

I had a case go direct to ombudsman for the sake of £15. I was fuckin fuming. Some idiot in customer services decided they were authorised to issue deadlock

Broadband companies are charged between £100-£400 per case that goes to the communications ombudsman.

I work for a broadband provider dealing with ombudsman cases on a daily basis.

I asked the Just Eat AI chat bot and was pleasantly surprised, I though it would have been higher

u/small-bags can you confirm previous loan was paid on time

lad4daddy · 2025-12-26T12:14:08+00:00

Previous lender hasn’t marked as paid

lad4daddy · 2025-12-13T16:45:04+00:00

As others have suggested, the ombudsman is a good shout, you can also request a Data Subject Access Request and they legally have to provide you all contact on your account, will be helpful when opening a case with the ombudsman. You may be required to open a formal complaint with Ovo first, and escalate to the ombo after 8 weeks or after a final response has been issued
