Gripe of the day - What is yours?

[Red ones]

Relatives who think its appropriate to choose my wedding anniversary to start an argument and create unnecessary stress EVERY YEAR

BT. I know it's been said on here before but my "free" BT Sport has just become £5 per month. No notice, just there on the bill. Phoned to complain and was offered downgrade to their Light package for free but that does not include BT Sport 2 and of course Moto GP is on 2. I only moved to BT Broadband to get Moto GP and I'll not be paying £60 to watch one programme, every other weekend during the summer. Barstewards.

Trev, this has cropped up a couple of times. Can't remember if on the org or another forum. Has you bt package recently come out of its original 12/18/24 month contract?

If so, you may be able to get it free again by renewing it for a further 12/18/24 months.

Do you get BT TV? If so the sport pack is/should be free.

My nose is annoying me. I feel perfectly well, yet it's been streaming for 24 hours like I've got a head cold. Antihistamines have made no difference, and I don't usually get hay fever so don't know what what to do other than take cold relief meds and hope that helps. Or stick a tampon up each nostril but I may get funny looks on the train.

I was told that taking cold meds only make things worse, as they open up the bits that produce the mucus.

Sudafed might dry it up, but it can stop you sleeping.

I've not taken anything yet. Got some stronger antihistamines I can take art night so I'll try one of those now I'm off to bed. I've been at a cricket ground surrounded by combine harvesters so it may just be a reaction to all the dust from the harvest.

The evil cats for killing voles and little animals chased out of the fields as they combined them.

Another sad day for me, when i read this, such a nice guy. I'm due to stay at his place in France next month, for the third time, so i know him and his wife pretty well, as its like staying with friends.

No, I'm about 6 months into my contract and no, I don't have BT TV as we have Sky. No notice just added to the bill hoping we wouldn't notice. Grrrrrrrr. Bye bye Moto GP - I'm not paying £60 to watch one programme every two weeks over the summer. Nothing else they show interests me at all.
