However, this is in a suburban area with plenty of available food for the foxes.
I once spoke to someone who explained that 24 hours was 3 days. It maybe 3 working days but that's not how most people would interpret "It'll be with you in 24 hours."
I ordered an Otterbox iPhone case and paid extra for next day delivery. I didn’t realise at the time they used UPS, who have always been rubbish in my book. Arrived 5 days after ordering (weekend in between), which was acceptable for meeting next day by UPS standards.
Have you got a link to where you complained have a seller issue as well.I ordered a coldframe from an Amazon marketplace seller. The courier rang the door bell and then ran for it leaving a damaged box propped against the door, there was a big gash in it. The coldframe was ok but the plastic cover was ripped so I contacted the seller. Coms were slow but eventually they got the message that I'd accept a replacement cover rather than return the whole thing. They were out of covers so would I accept a partial refund? "Yes" said I, "I'll accept £24 because that's how much that exact cover costs on Amazon." "We'll give you £4" they said. So I gave up and put a claim in with Amazon and immediately got a full refund. The return of the whole item was then arranged and I left negative feedback for the slow coms and derisory £4 refund offer. Case closed until they emailed me today asking why I'd given them bad feedback This is annoying but also rather funny. They offered £4 to cover £24 damage? What did they expect? 5 stars? Muppets.

Cheers will have a look.Thank youOn Amazon under "My Orders" you should see a list of things you've bought and next to each item there should be a number of options one of which should be "Problem with order." That should get you a response from Amazon. When I contacted them I had a reply PDQ...
"Claim decision on order xyz."

Depends where you live, deer are partial to roses
He must really love this place eh?But yet, since being banned, he's tried to sign back up over half a dozen times...
I suspect that same character is active on another photography site. If it's the same chap, he's making a "thing" of being autistic so he can't be expected to conform to forum rules. Who knows? Maybe that's the case but I don't think it's a cross other members should have to bear.I think if he does finally get back in via whatever nefarious means, we'll change his user name to Boomerang before binning him again.

And yes I can confirm that the social media posts were quite colourful
I don't think its the same one, this one seems to suffer terribly with TourettesIf it's the same chap, he's making a "thing" of being autistic so he can't be expected to conform to forum rules.
Me too.I'd have liked a word...
Look for a local pestie with "BPCA" on their site, they should guarantee the work. ( free recall if it doesn't work) And it shouldn't cost you more that 40 quid.So, I'm annoyed at the money I have to spend
They are attracted to light and that above is a classic example of how they become a "pest"but they got into the loft and followed the water pipes down into the airing cupboard and out into the bedroom and every time we went in there were
Blimey!Last time they charged about £70
All bees are protected species its highly unlikely that a professional pestie will destroy bees, unless there is a real danger to life.bee nests

You are quite right they are not legally protected under the WCA 1981, however the pest control industry as whole does not kill bees unless there is a danger to life.I've just googled and I can't see anything about bees including honey bees being protected,
Licensed Pestles can kill legally kill them
Oh FFS!Legitimi carborundum?
You are quite right they are not legally protected under the WCA 1981, however the pest control industry as whole does not kill bees unless there is a danger to life.
From the BPCA website (governing body)
"however, they are endangered so we'd always recommend exploring all other avenues before considering eradication".
And the fact that only Licensed Pesties can kill legally kill them, means they are afforded some protection,
As I mentioned above a professional company will only kill them if there is a danger to life.
I was easier to say protected than to go through all that lot TBH, As YOU or any other members of the public cannot kill them.
Of course I'm not talking about stamping on a bee but destroying their nests.
So yes by default they are protected

Yes but what Cobra is saying that although there is no specific law responsible pest control companies won’t kill bees unless there is a threat to lifeWe'll have to disagree on this.
I'm not seeing any evidence that the company I've used or any other would be acting illegally by killing bees. Quite the contrary as there are some sites which seem to saying that bees being a protected species is a myth which predates the internet and is possibly a result of a misinterpretation of UK BAP.
It's all relatively easy to Google. I typed in "Is it legal to kill bees in the UK?" Google and the internet as a whole may be questionable at times though
So, if need be I'll ring the usual people and be guided by what they say. It's probably academic though as I think they're wasps.
I wish you’d come and read that out to my dog. I’ve got a good population of bumblebees but she delights in killing them, in the house or outside .
BTW “bumble bees above our bathroom window” sounds a bit unusual, posted by @woof woof ?
Exactly, Thanks PeteYes but what Cobra is saying that although there is no specific law responsible pest control companies won’t kill bees unless there is a threat to life
Disagree all you likeWe'll have to disagree on this.
Indeed they much prefer to nest at ground level.BTW “bumble bees above our bathroom window” sounds a bit unusual,

Of course it was, And I'd done that same had I spotted similarI like typos! Generally ignore them but that one was too good to walk on by.
I guess they were the Tree Bumblebee (Bombus hypnorum) which has only been in U.K. since 2001 which is my excuse for being unaware of it . Most (all?) the others nest in the ground or near ground level. In any case nests disappear later in the summer so not usually a problem, unlike wasps.I've no idea where they prefer to nest but here they just seemed to do as the wasps do and nested somewhere in the eves above the bathroom window. They were big buzzy things and what you or I would very probably recognise as "Bumble Bees" and this was confirmed my Mr Pest Controller.
