OT + RANT. Postage cost shortfall by worse than useless VW UK
I am so pissed off. This is the 3rd time in 3 weeks letters sent to me with a shortfall in postage costs. 3 weeks ago it was VW, then it was a private individual and now I am being touched for £1.54.
Can't park near the Post Office and it is a good 20 minute walk away. I'll check who it is from and if I feel it is not important, the Post Office can send it back. Aaaarrrrrggggghhhhh!

My mother insists on sending Cheques for birthdays etc. Invariably it's registered / recorded or not enough stamps, so then have to drive into crap part of town, no parking, get envelope. Then sort a trip in to town to pay cheque in. It's arrghhhhhh .... |

I've been subsidising cards from my family for years as well as the cost and time of collection from the local distribution centre, its a pain in the arse but no more than that.

reminds me quite a few years ago, I had a 'special delivery' that was short of stamps.
Excitedly I made my way to the horrid sorting office queue only for them to close the gates whilst people were still queuing as they were closing, I lept over the gate (was much more agile then) only to find they could'nt locate the letter. On advice returned next day only to find they closed early! Went back day after finally got hold of this letter. Opened it up - a warning that I hadn't paid a fine from frigging blockbuster video as I hadn't rewound the stupid tape - glad they went bust |

I will saunter over there tomorrow and if it is VW who have done it again, I'll use the most colourful language in my lexicon. They owe me £1.11 from the last time and that was for Wheel Insurance Documents. That Wheel Insurance was so crap, that I cancelled it.

And who was the guilty party? Surprise, surprise - VW and specifically VW Driverline! Told the Post Office to send it back.
Tried to call VW Driverline as it is a 24 hour number. Is it fcuk! Honestly guys, VW UK is a really crappy company, always was, always will be. And don't get me going on VW Customer Service. It is non-existent and populated by an army of Nobel Prize Winning Morons whose nth language seems to be English. I am really seriously p!ssed of with them. Bunch of worse than useless cvnts.
