  • Do you think its fair that the X factor allows people to keep re applying?

    I think its wrong. They have had the opportunity and are now taking up slots when newer younger artists are being rejected. That girl that's applied four times has a good voice but its obviously not been enough in the past what makes her think this year will be different ? She's deluded.

    Historically if you have sung in front of Simon Cowell in the past and he hasn't picked you up then as a winner the career will be the release of one song at xmas one album then that's it.

    Am i the only one that thinks like this ?

  • Where can i get a perfume tested to see if its faux or not?

    Have bought a perfume for my mum from Amazon and both her and i are convinced its a faux. Seller won't entertain my complaint and are now ignoring e mails basically stating that because it has been opened, Amazon will interfere if i can prove its faux but I'm stuck as to know how to get it tested its a YSL opium.

    Any advice would be greatly appreciated i paid over £50 for it !

  • Bought a dodgy perfume that claimed to be the real thing?

    Paid a lot of money for a perfume for my mum through amazon for her birthday, she has just rung to say that although it is the same bottle packaging etc it is not the real thing as the smell is different. She should know as she has worn the same one for about ten years! i have contacted the seller but i just wanted to know what rights i have in returning it and is it worth contacting the perfume house to let them know?

    Bought it less than 30 days ago but by the time i get it back to them it maybe just over the 30 days.

  • Insurance quote has changed after accident that was not my fault?

    Insurance due for renewal and i received a quote the day before some idiot rammed my car. I have since received another quote through the post for the same car dated the day after the accident and it is a £100 more than the one 5 days earlier even though the other driver's insurance has admitted complete liability. I have phoned my insurance company and said that this doesn't seem right and have been told that this is the norm regardless of the other driver accepting liability.

    Seems very unfair that i should be penalised for something that wasn't my fault anyone know where i can go with this ? or is this the norm? Car insurance company is the one that has three pink ladies singing an annoying song.

    Thanks in advance.

  • Scared of my stepson?

    Does anyone know in the uk of someone i could talk to? i can't bear living in my house anymore. I love my husband dearly but his son whom came to live with us from 8 has caused nothing but problems. The minute i say anything to him that he doesn't like he acts aggressively and blames me for everything that has gone wrong in his life even his lack of friends . If ever we discuss his behaviour (smoking drugs in his bedroom laying in bed all day not working and helping himself to whatever he wants) its always because of something that i have done or said but now he's started shouting at me squaring up to me and calling me all the names under the sun. I'm scared that he'll hurt me ... I can't cope anymore and just want to leave...

    I have a cat and she can be nasty and may have caught him but other than that i haven't a clue what to do for him. Any suggestions ?

  • Playstation 3 usage...son up all night becoming a problem?

    For the last three years our house has become a war zone with the lad 18 now being addicted to using the PS3. He is up all night and sleeps all day, has no social life dropped out of school college and thinks he is doing the world a favour by working part time (even late for that daily).

    Is there anything we can buy/do that will restrict the access time allowed on our internet ? Other than unplugging the whole thing which spoils it for the rest of the family?
