I've not had a bad experience in either Wales or Gloucestershire but I have in other parts of the country. I didn't really want to be so heavy handed as to complain to an ombudsman though.
I think some of them need training on how to work with customers! One told me "You'll never find it" in relation to something I was looking for through old newspapers, but I found it within an hour or two! Her comments might have made someone else give up on the search!
