Unhappy Excessive Brake and Tyre wear

I just had my 25,000 mile service last Saturday they said that my front tyres were almost bald, this was the second set since new, and that my front brake pads and disks needed changing, that I had maybe a month/2000 miles. Seeing as most of my driving is on motorways/duel carriage ways I thought this a bit soon. It is now Wednesday I returned the car to the garage with no front brakes, the pads disappeared in 280 miles, just a high pitched squeal and only the back brakes to try and stop a high speed car. This seems to be a fault with the civic and Honda should do something about it, I am not rich and £230 for front tyres every 6 months is abit much.
