Never Trust…
Train companies to run an effective service. 95% on time still means at least one train an hour is going to be delayed. Pretty crap, really.
Taxi drivers to actually follow the rules of the road. Those funny blinking lights on the sides of your car? They’re to indicates your intentions, you arse!
Anyone who drives while wearing a hat of any kind. They’re usually either too young to care, or too old to remember to care.
Banks to to anything in the interest of their customs. Yeah, cheap shot, but no less true for that.
Any company that outsources customer service departments to less effective subsidiaries. profits before people, guys. We’ll remember, and buy elsewhere.
Dell after-sales service. Just – don’t.
The Home Delivery Network. Or, Incompetents Incorporated. I now no longer buy from online retailers who rely on this bunch of cowboys.
Britannia Overseas Property. Thieves, pure and simple.
Any driver who chooses to not reverse into a parking space. They have to drive out again, so why delay the inevitable?
Anyone significantly more attractive than you, who shows an interest. Only in porn does that work out well for everyone.
Cold callers. Ever.
The Daily Mail. This one speaks for itself.
The opinions of Daily Mail readers. These ones can’t.
Politicians. Let’s just acknowledge that they’re a bunch of self-serving hypocrites, who have no interest in actually representing the people who put them into power.
Shopkeepers who routinely hold your banknote up to the light. When this happens, I always do the same with any notes they hand me in change – it really seems to annoy them.
Holiday company complaints departments. At least as bad as insurance claims departments.
Any business that has a name or slogan stating their honest intentions. Seriously – would you ever buy a car from “Honest John’s”?
Extended warranties sold by the retailer. If you must insure your electrical goods, shop around – you’ll get a better deal, elsewhere.
So, who don’t *you* trust?
(disclaimer: If any of the above apply to you, you’re automatically exempt, of course, because you’re awesome!)
Lol great list! I’d have to add Talk Talk broadband – I’ve never had to deal with aconpany full of such incompetent idiots! They lost Carphone Warehouse my business too as I refuse to have anything to do with them ever again
CPP… after arguing with them LAST year that I’d cancelled with them previously, and them agreeing, they then take £37 out of my account again THIS year. Cue another phone call, another heated discussion and a week later, as if by magic, the money is back in my account. Let’s see what happens next year…
However, I feel the need to jump to the defence of Dell. I’ve heard their home support is now pants but their business support is still awesome! Well, it has been for me, anyway…
