    24V/36V/48V top quality electric bike battery

    Thank you for your time in getting these quotes for me. Please could you let me know how much is the cheapest ordinary postage charge to the UK, and is there a sea shipping option please, to make it cheaper still, and how long does each take? Many thanks

    Just found out I will be losing my job...

    Claim every benefit and tax credit available, now. Make sure not paying more than have to for any bills. Get any available ordinary job paying minimum wage or above - don't dismiss anything. Attitude is 100 times more important than experience in many jobs. Above all don't worry and enjoy time...

    Anybody like to have a little bet.

    I think you need to make a distinction here between not being allowed to win, and the bookie not being willing to take money for another bet. If you win a bet which is accepted, they have no choice but to honour it. It's a contract, they agreed to it. But nobody is obliged to agree to a new...

    Eclipse Bikes Bafang BBS02 48v 750w mysteriously disappears

    Even if you're selling chewing gum and Coca-Cola, if you're trying to sell it for 12.5% less than your nearest UK competitor, as Eclipse does with the 14.5ah Samsung bottle batteries including identical charger and delivery, then I think that's ambitious. Even if you're matching your...

    Eclipse Bikes Bafang BBS02 48v 750w mysteriously disappears

    I gather they had two issues recently, firstly their supplier sent motors via sea, programmed with a key setting missing, so when they arrived March 11, they had to order a cable via express post and reprogram the entire batch themselves, and secondly, that they had a huge number of orders to...

    Helmet camera recommendations please

    CNET review the new Xaiomi Yi, a higher-end Wifi cam which costs £43 in China at the moment. Looks pretty nice. http://www.cnet.com/uk/products/xiaomi-yi/

    The Brommie's gone

    I can see how it might be fair to dealers, but I'm not so sure it's fair to consumers. Guy on minimum wage may take months or a year or more to work up Brompton money out of his disposable. I know he's got Chinese knockoffs available for £120. But it just doesn't seem right that a company is...

    The Brommie's gone

    That should in principle attract the attention of (what is now called) the Competition and Markets Authority. Would be interested if you have any further info. Did you mean can't compete?

    Anybody like to have a little bet.

    Perhaps the bookies don't need to trip gamblers up - if the great majority of serious gamblers will keep playing until they've lost all their gains. My understanding is that for every professional winner at gambling there are probably tens of thousands of professional losers. That's not an...

    The lost Malaysian airplane

    How? I'm sorry but I no more see how depression causes mass murder than how Jamie Oliver causes nuclear fission. We most of us drive cars and could take out 30 people or more easy.

    The lost Malaysian airplane

    Ok. But there are a lot of people who drive cars. Maybe most adults. They could all easily take out say 20 or more people on a market day. Shall we take away their licences, if they've suffered depression? The truth is depression no more caused this murder than Hitler's grandmother caused the...

    The lost Malaysian airplane

    Do you think that the pilot's history of depression was a red light he was going to commit mass murder? I suppose that's 1/6 of all of Britain's workers out of a job then.

    Urban Mover UK - Rubbish Customer Service!

    The company address of Urban Mover Eco Ltd is here: URBAN MOVER ECO LTD 5 PULLMAN COURT GREAT WESTERN ROAD GLOUCESTER GLOUCESTERSHIRE GL1 3ND Company No. 07997258 It is probably best to write to them by letter from now on concerning the broken bike (although you can email and ring them to...

    Urban Mover UK - Rubbish Customer Service!

    No, moneyclaim isn't the correct stage now because PayPal have a 180 day buyer protection guarantee, even in Switzerland. I think it's an interesting idea about doing an online moneyclaim, but I think that should relate to the failed bike if KC refuses to fix it for free.

    Urban Mover UK - Rubbish Customer Service!

    Hi Moisson, According to PayPal Switzerland you have 180 days to launch a buyer protection dispute through PayPal. It says so here at section 3.6. I am certain that you bought your bike from Urban Mover Eco Ltd as Urbanmover.com ceased trading on 23 March 2013. So long as you didn't pay a...

    Urban Mover UK - Rubbish Customer Service!

    Paypal claim definitely best for the £500, as you say. The thing is that Moisson says he bought the bike a year before January 2015, so January 2014, then. The company actually went into administration in March 2012 and came out of administration in March 2013 and entered liquidation, thus...

    Urban Mover UK - Rubbish Customer Service!

    I would venture that the question isn't whether Urban Mover Ltd is the same company as Urbanmover.com Ltd, because they're not. Each company is a discrete entity. In this case the practical question is whether he paid Urbanmover.com Ltd or Urban Mover Eco Ltd, because both are in different...

    You might be right there but I'm not sure (I apologise if I've misunderstood). Urban Mover Ltd dissolved in 2008. http://wck2.companieshouse.gov.uk//wcframe?name=accessCompanyInfo The OP might have paid Urbanmover.com Ltd which is currently in liquidation. The OP would need to contact the...
