I wish I hadn't discovered Atlantis

Not the fabled underwater city but firm of the same name with whom I have just concluded a very unsatisfactory relationship.

Without revisiting the painful details, the gist of the story is that I felt let down, badly served and generally unloved by an organisation that had happily taken money from me for a largely negative experience; not entirely but, to my mind, mainly ascribable to its own shortcomings.

The conclusion referred to above resulted in the firm conceding several points of contention and parting with a less-than-princely sum in compensation with the result that I am now only about £2500 out of pocket from the experience.

We live and learn - sometimes.
