So Octopus repaid the credit at the same time saying I owed them on the new place!

So I've just paid them with the money they repaid.

The efficiency of the private sector.

Yes but if we still had the Electricity Board and the Gas Board. Each would have insisted that you pay for the new place before your moved in.

Then when you moved in it would take them a week to get your supply connected.

They would then have taken 8 weeks to refund your credit, whilst still issuing you with a monthly bill to pay.

No, but I did do some work at a council where one of the employees was called Endicott. I really wish I had been a manager there just for the end of year appraisals.

Serious post (it does happen)
I was/am due a furniture delivery by Tuffnalls for an item bought at B&Q.

Does anybody know where I should be contacting. I know roughly the consumer law, I'm not worried by that at the moment, I want a way to chase my delivery.

Depends who you contracted with. If bought from B&Q and they arranged the delivery (eg online), then chase B&Q.

If you arranged the delivery separately then Tuffnalls (I know you can do this sort of thing at Ikea, not sure at B&Q) and good luck getting hold of anyone.

Either way I think it will be stuck in a depot for sometime. I'd hope its a B&Q arranged delivery so they send it again with a different courier.

How come no-one has posted in 45 hours?

Have you all gone off to a different forum and left me on my own?

Yes !

AND
we are not telling you which one.

But we will pop back here from time to time to gloat.
