Presumably so they can learn to call someone a "fucking black cunt" rather than "negrito", which is of course much more acceptable.
Really don't care anymore. Racism happens, it always will. Keeping it in the spotlight just makes it worse.

Barclays.

Having cancelled 3 of my standing orders a month ago, they are still active and tried to take the money out of my account, and because nothing was in there, charged me 24 pounds for an unsuccessful transaction fee, 8 pounds per standing order. Cunts refunded me 8 pounds because "its all we are allowed to return".

Can anyone reccomend a better bank? I accept that they are probably all shit and i'll probably get similar problems elsewhere.

Co-op are meant to be good to deal with, no idea if that's still the case since they merged with the Britannia mind.

That said, write to Barclays and you should get the rest of your money back. Maybe some more if you moan enough.

Not easy to do as we restrict access to command prompt and users cannot install anything. So this script won't run. Plus it would cause more issues than its worth (users).

Thanks anyway.

Which is an .exe on the local c drive which is also disabled. We lock our users down quite harshly. If we don't the kids would have a field day!

RAC are exactly the same but play them at their own game. Long as you remember to cancel the automatic renewal you're in the box seat. I go with whoever offers the best cashback (through Top cashback) at the time. Should be getting £65 back this year from a price of £125 - Same poilcy as you're looking for i think Paul. £60 a year = happy days!!!!
Cheers chaps (and Lucien and sonic), think I'll give that a go.
There seems absolutely no point in loyalty whatsoever.
This was my thought - I was "rewarded" by them making an assumption that I'd just let it tick over and they could essentially do me over. If it was 20-odd quid, I might not have minded but doubling it is just taking the piss. Thought these companies were all supposed to be super-worried about customer churn? Obviously not in the AA....

Fog lights again. Some people need to get their Highway Code out. 

Quote
You MUST NOT use front or rear fog lights unless visibility is seriously reduced (see Rule 226) as they dazzle other road users and can obscure your brake lights. You MUST switch them off when visibility improves.

Talking of loyalty folks what is your opinion of this?

A couple of people in the family have been given £12 off vouchers from Sainsburys in the last month or so...£12 a week over the last month or so....we do our shopping online and spend more than the above mentioned yet recieve zilch....have i a case for having a word with the shop....works out plenty of money over so many weeks.

Not tight but just feel it should be the same for all.

The perks always go to people who shop in the store as opposed to online.

Supermarkets want you to visit the store as the theory says you spot extra stuff you fancy on the way round. When shopping online you tend to only buy what you need.

That's what I was told when I temped at Tescos one summer anyway

Well, it's not. Sainsbury's aren't at liberty to give everyone money off.
