I can see how this has happened.. because some idiot had a typo.. then cost me almost £41 in charges !

Any way you can fight the charges?

Just typical of the dumb sort of mistakes happening these days.

Not to mention everyone being rude, self absorbed and entitled...

Yeah, I wish they would stop messing with the site though.. its become a huge PITA these days. I think sellers are dropping like flies a lot as well lately.

Yep I think the same pretty-much daily :)

Yeah, I stumbled across a couple of YouTube channels which are, let's just say, "correcting" girls on their "entitlement" attitudes ... Some of the things they come out with is just absolutely mind blowingly crazy.

It's all leading to a much deeper problem of guys are avoiding girls because they just don't want the drama and to deal with all the BS etc Then girls are complaining because they can't get guys, even though a lot of them are single mums and guys don't want them etc.. I could write a book on the whole thing..... Including my own experiences of the whole dating game...

So that went as well as expected.. Totally missed the point, Its not like its even difficult to understand.



It seems more and more common these days, not just the language barrier either !

It be like saying "how are you today" and the other person saying "I just found a great recipe for lasagna!" .

I just give up bothering and just loose the money as its more cost effective then trying to battle loads of people each week. My girlfriend says I shouldn't as I keep loosing money.. But she really doesn't understand the vast amount of time all this takes up.

When dealing with China it's probably a good idea to have a Chinese friend, or at least use google-translate and try speaking their language. Maybe they'll understand more that way.
