This international shipping company is outstanding in every category. I have only used them a few…read moretimes so far but will continue to use them whenever we have shipments from the UK (or other countries they service) to the United States. Paul Topham is the contact that I used with MIES and I don't know how to use good enough words for the review!!! He is extremely patient with my millions of emails with questions regarding shipment both before and after pick up. He explains in detail, and has given me quotes including the duties, taxes before pick up so I know how much it will be (and very close to actual price after packing). The packing / crating was very professional and he even provided photos after packing prior to shipment. I strongly suggest getting quotes for this company, whenever you have international shipments going to the United States!!!

Mercury News commits FRAUD! BEWARE!!!!…read more Sometime last year a guy who claimed to be in college came to my house to sell me the Mercury News. He told me it would help with his college cost. I told him I was not interested. Then he asked me for my number and told he he can just show his boss that he is actually trying to sell papers and at least he will be getting some credit. Lapse of judgment, I gave him my number. To make a long story short, our apt building started to receive the paper once a week. Then I get a renewal invoice from Mercury News. I called the Mercury Newspaper and found out a email was created, start a new subscription, an email that I NEVER CREATED!!!! Furious, I told the rep that this is fraud and identity theft. furthermore, I wanted a email confirmation from them stating they closed the account and what actions do they plan to take on this individual. They stated they will get back to me in 2 days. We will see.

Mercury News is handily placed on the main street that runs through Ashby. It doubles as a…read morenewsagent and a post office. The newsagent sells a vast range of newspapers and magazines, pretty much anything you can think of! They also sell a decent range of cards, soft drinks, gifts, confectionery, local maps (town plans), etc. The staff are friendly and efficient, so although Mercury News is always busy, there's never much of a queue. The Post Office is a fairly sizeable branch situated at the back of the shop. They do all the jobs you expect a post office to do, posting parcels, car tax, premium bonds, passports etc, and the staff are much like in the newsagent, good natured, but efficient. The combination of the two businesses makes Mercury News a very useful shop!

Brides & Gowns is by far THE BEST shop I have been to in my wedding experience!!!! The shop is…read moregorgeous compared to most other places we went to, and they really make you feel at home there! My daughter came with us and they even had toys for her to play with, and my mum got all comfy with her feet up on the sofas! The staff are lovely, really friendly and down to earth, AND they go out of their way to make you feel special they actually gave us the service we wanted, unlike all the other places I had been to that were shocking and made me feel awful! I found the gown of my dreams straight away, and then they helped me match up the bridesmaids gowns and all the men's suits too! Just a shame they cant come and help me choose all the other things. :-) My experience with fittings and alterations since my gown arrived has been perfect because they have always accommodated around my working hours, and I even got the most stunning tiara and veil to go with the gown at my first try on. I would say I think the whole experience with them has been fantastic from start to finish, and I cant wait to collect my gowns from them soon for the big day! I'm sending all my friends there..in fact, some have already been in! We always have a good giggle with the staff when we go in, and they always know us when we walk through the door. I've never been married before, so I never knew what to expect, but after this shop has helped me from the start (even with giving me helpful details about what will happen on the run up to the wedding, and what service they provide throughout), well, I will certainly be going back there for the next gown when I get to renew my vows!.I wonder how long I've got to wait!! :-)

This is actually the'Gap Kids' store in Nottingham, and is really nicely laid out, with a great…read morerange of stock for both babies and children.

The prices are very reasonable which is quit unexpected. I had a handbag addiction for a while and this place was dangerous! I have bought shoes from here too and I still have them in perfect condition as they have lasted so well. The lady who owns it is lovely and very helpful. There is no parking here but there is a main car park nearby.
