I am Bitterwallet.
By Paul Nikkel
Welcome to Bitterwallet! Hopefully soon to be the best source for consumer hacks, tips & news from the trenches of the HotUKDeals community.
Why Bitterwallet? In short we chose the name because the overwhelming, depressing, soul-sucking experience of being a UK consumer is eroding our consumer souls like acid rain dissolved Nelson in the 80’s.
Yeah our wallet is bitter and the words ‘Thank you for your custom’ ring hollow in their Victorian politeness but we’re trying to do something about it. We want Bitterwallet to be the place to whinge, bitch, and have a voice in the age of the soulless consumer. The topics we are interested in include consumer hacks/loopholes, insider rumours and tips, privacy, consumer legal, complaints/horrors, cult gadgets, insane deals.
We’ve put together a crack team of pissed off consumers including Paul Smith, Andy Dawson and Vince Wong. We’re going to be writing regularly on what’s happening in the news, stories sent in by you, and on the ground reporting of our own. If you have a tip or lead please send it in as we’re eager to sink our bitter teeth into anything juicy.
Without further ado, although we’re not stuck in a retro historical film, I am Bitterwallet.







feral trolley of the week
Beware of Quinn Direct http://www.quinn-direct.co.uk, hadnt had a bad word to say about them and often recommended them to other people.
But I have been stopped on a number occassions by the police saying there was no insurance showing on the vehicle on their database. I have emailed Quinn Direct who have only tried to fob my off saying I do have valid insurance and not really answered the real question.
I had the vehicle impounded and then had to prove I did in fact hold valid insurance, and pay them £200 to get the vechile back on they go through another process to get my money back.
It not a very nice experience when your in the right!! BEWARE!!!
So if you have insurance with Quinn Direct make sure you find out if it is showing as valid on the police database.
