JPC - The Journal Publishing Company Is JPC Publishing still up to its old tricks? I'll never forget them – they must be the dodgiest publishing outfit ever. We were caught out by them, many years ago. They phoned with a "last minute offer" which had to be accepted straight away, for an editorial to appear what they said was a national trade paper called "Construction Times".

When we received a voucher copy, it was in "Newcastle Times", which appeared to be a consumer publication (not trade) and wasn't at all focused on the target business market – the front page was about Madonna! The "newspaper" was very poorly put together: all the photos appeared to have been scanned in from other publications and the print quality was also very poor. Now I suspect it was probably one of a small number of copies printed to satisfy advertisers and may never have been "distributed" at all.

When I tried to contact them to say we’d been misled and wanted a full credit against their invoice, the person with whom I'd spoken before "wasn’t available". I called them several times and was always told "a director was dealing with it", but I never received anything in the post and they never returned phone calls or emails.

Each time I managed to get through to them on the phone, the person I’d previously spoken to was "no longer with the company". From what I've read below, that shouldn't have surprised me!

I never got a credit note and we didn't pay the invoice.

Anglian Windows Can someone please advise?

We wanted to get the front door and back door of our house replaced. I had a sales representative from Anglian visit our home today. He started with astronomical prices and ended up with the ones mentioned below. I am now really worried as I paid him 10% and not sure whether I got ripped off or got a good deal.

This is what we agreed upon:

- "Canterbury" classic front door with fibre glass
- mahogony finish outside and white uPVC inside
- knocker with spyhole, handle and mail outlet
- side panel (single toughened glass) with white uPVC border [sits next to the door]
Cost: £1,588 including fitting

- uPVC white backdoor with toughened glass
- side panel (single toughened glass) [sits next to the door]
Cost: £1,000 including fitting

Total Cost: £2,588 (incl VAT)

Can someone please advise if I did OK or shall I go and cancel the contract as I have a 7 day period to do so.


Many thanks.

Betta Living had an awesome kitchen from them, even though 4 weeks sounds long its well worth it. fitters worked really hard and the attention to detail really showed by the end. would recommend them to anyone looking for a new kitchen.

i used them because my parents did and i didnt know if i was going to be able to afford a made to order kitchen but now i cant believe it, now its in, well worth every penny, and my friends think its cost me an arm and a leg, and my girlfriend has started to cook more which is awesome.

Reid Furniture Ltd hi, there the folowing is an experience my son & his partner have had with reid furniture, they ordered a leather suite @ the falkirk branch, when delivered the packing was left in place as they were decorating at the time,once the packaging was removed a few days later to find silica gel beads bags had burst& deeply pressed into the corner unit,they phoned reid customer services to report the findings, they were told one of the technicians would come to the house & carry out an inspection, on arrival he had a look & tried to remove the marks with a hair dryer to no avail, he quoted to my wife that the marks would not come out, he said he would be submitting a report, & reids would be in contact. which they did offering £100 compensation which was refused, they come back with an offer of £150 which was also refused ,I contacted reids myself & told them my son & partner wanted a replacement suite, i was told this was not possible, after a few phone calls telling reid we had contacted citzens advise & trading standards they were still not interested they phoned my son's house & said they would come & lift the suite if they were not happy, my sons partner explained it was a 13 week delivery for the siute in the first place, she also explained they had a 6 month old baby. were they to sit on the floor the girl @ customer services was not interested,i was under the impression that reids were a major player in furniture retail, but after this nightmare I would encourage the british public not spend there hard earned cash in any of the reid outlets through the country,i don't know how reid's management can treat people like this sorry for a long drawn out story but i think the people out there should be aware of what there dealing with, a very unsympathic company with no compasion jimmy h

Moorcroft caused me to have a seizure and suffer angina, I told the police at Kensington, as they broke in (without me even knowing what the debt is about and all debts meant to be sorted by the CAB due to myy disability) the man left a card, I rang and he sais he would send hundreds of people over and over until they get in, I am scared and that the police said they woud do nothing has terrified me, I explained they dont have a court order or anything, but the police refused point blank to take my complaint, I am now very sick and calling my GP, HOW CAN THEY ALLOW THIS?????

Game Uk I bought a Wii for my sons birthday, 6 months later it stopped working, for some reason I couldn't find receipt etc. Contacted customer service by e-mail giving date bought and delivery address, they e-mailed back confirming info. and posted copy of delivery docs. Took Wii and docs. into local shop where I was given a brand new Wii to take home! Very good store, competitive pricing and good customer service.
