Cardiff Removals - Post One

Many, many emails on this subject...

"We've moved quite a few times over the last few years, both nationally and internationally (due to work).These are some of the best guyrs we've had.
The booking time was really short, so we were grateful we could get anyone, but the office lady was great at handling all the demands.The lads were on time, and amazingly didn't drink tea all day. We have some pretty big furniture (piano, aga etc.) and though it looked a bit of struggle, they handled it well enough.
The day was a little longer than expected, finishing arounf 8pm instead of 6pm as was suggested. That's really the only criticism. (Although one of the guys uniforms was a bit tattered!).The price was not the absolute lowest, but came in below the average. Did't want to go for the rock bottom price as it seemed like the other firms were less confident in being able to do a good job."

Barclays Business Banking

From a self-employed contact;

'i've banked with Barclays for three years now and run a profitable small business in Cardiff.

At a meeting with Ian Ress, the business manager, I have never been made to feel so insignificant. Questioning the charges levied, I was simply brushed aside. The bank also wants upwards if £250 per year for a £1000 overdraft. There are money lenders on the estates who offer a better deal than that!

I'll be taking my account (half a million turnover) elsewhere.'

Reiss, Cardiff

"brand new shop, really nice looking. Went in on Saturday and tried on a t shirt. Problem was it was filthy. Went back in on Wednesday. Same top on the same rack with the same filth. Why can't they clean it? The top is fifty quid!"

Patagonia restaurant - Cardiff

This one was mailed over at the weekend. It was one two fit the same establishment.

Short, sweet and (I've been too) entirely accurate.

"Had a pre-valentines meal on Friday at Patagonia. As usual, gorgeous food, great service and a really nice wine list".

Well done Patagonia!

Morrisons, Cardiff Bay

I'm starting to add these mobile now, so the formatting won't look so nice.

Benefit of this is that complaints and reviews can be added on the spot and while there're still 'hot'.

Just been for the weekly shop in morrisons Cardiff bay. It's the day before pancake day.

No batter mix. Only hot and spicy. Assistant asks if that will do? Probably not too suitable for fruity pancakes!

What kind of backward supermarket manager runs out if batter mix the day before pancake day?! Their ordering system must be controlled by a series of grunts.

This is the store, however, that ran out of roses at 10am on the 13th of feb and has over half the tills off at peak times.

Morrisons Cardiff bay, you are a truly crap supermarket. If I could mentally abide the great unwashed in their pyjamas in asda, then I'd shop there. But I can't. So back to old mr t's it is.

HMV - Cardiff Queen's Street

Ok, so this is the first one. I've asked friends and family for the first few until people submit their own, unassisted.

"Just before Christmas, you know what it's like. Everyone rushing around buying crap for the season. Well, I was buying my Aunt Susan Boyle's CD. I was embarrassed enough.

Got the CD home, case all cracked.

Return to store (HMV Cardiff, Queen's Street). Really, really surly staff member (red hair, emo washout) looking at me like I'm such a loser for buying a bit of SuBo. Explained it was for elderly Aunt. She started to mess around trying to replace the box, taking all the inserts out.

I explained that the CD would look used by the time it was given, replete with crumpled inserts. She gave me the look of death. The I gave her the look of death. It ended with me getting a replacement CD and her telling me to f-off. Not a good morning Christmas shopping.

Not the most major rant, but enough to start you off!"

This one does seem rather tame. I could have done better myself. But there you go.

HMV Cardiff, Queens Street; Poor service mark.
