Starluck Casino Lottery Scam

Company: Starluck Casino
Address : 2 Bloor Street West, toronto, Canada


I received a "lottery award" today in the mail from these guys. I called the number given, as the check looked unbelievalby real. I listened to what Alicia had to say, deposit the check and then send us $3829.00 to cover fees and taxes. I called information and got the number for Bank of Holly Springs, but it was only automated. I looked it up on the net and called. Imagine my suprise to learn that the check was bogus. I did call Alicia back and inform her that the check was bogus, she politely hung up on me. Be ware- the checks look absolutely for real.

PLEASE DO YOURSELF A FAVOR and DO

Company: Vonage
Address : 23 Main Street, Holmdel, NJ 7733, United States

URL: www.vonage.com

When I first signed up for the Vonage account everything went very well and in no time I was up and running with little or no problems. The Problem started when I added another account at my second home. I have nothing but problems since. Internet service was not available at my second home except through Satellite. I had Hughes put in a satellite dish and Vonage set up the VOIP account. Well VOIP does not work on satellite because of lag time. I found this out after trying to set up for 2 weeks. I then had to cancel Hughes (which cost me $400.00) and I tried to cancel Vonage until an internet company could service the area. Vonage told me that not to worry that my account would be in suspense until the service became available. After six months went by I noticed that I was still being charged for the account. I did not notice because of my other Vonage account. I contacted Vonage and was told that my account could not be put in suspense and I would have to pay $5.00/month for a basic 0 plan even though I could not use my phone???? Or I would have to pay to disconnect and pay again to reconnect when service was put in my area. I would then only have to reactivate the residential plan at no charge. Well I finally got the internet service and I reactivated the residential plan. Vonage then charged me to reactivate the plan. I have paid Vonage for the VOIP service for almost a year even though I could not use it. I have now paid to activate the residential plan twice even though I could now only begin to use it. I have spent many hours on the phone with Vonage and have only become more frustrated. I will find another service and I will cancel both services I have now. PLEASE DO YOURSELF A FAVOR and DO NOT use Vonage.

RUN AWAY!

Company: ALLTEL
Address : 1 Allied Dr, Little Rock, AR 72202, United States

URL: www.alltel.com

If you are considering using Alltel as your cell phone provider; RUN to any other firm. If Alltel has any business scruples, they probably stole them from somebody! I had a two year contract with them on which I paid faithfully every month even though the service was terrible. At the end of the contract, I switched to another provider and flatly refused to pay the last month's fee because they had not provided the service for which I was paying (enough was enough). I got several nasty letters from them but stood my ground. I learned that Alltel had placed an entry in my credit report for this "bad debt" and had suckered a collection agency into taking over the debt. I've been receiving phone calls from Alliance One for almost a year that I ignore and will continue to do so. The amount of this "bad debt?" A whopping $79.00! While I can easily pay the amount, there is a principle involved here. I'm getting my revenge; during the period of this silly mess, I've convinced a whole bunch of people to avoid Alltel; I hope you are one of them.

Poor service...

Company: Dell Computer Corporation
Address : 1 Dell Way, Round Rock, 78682, United States


After attempting to purchase a USB hub from Dell I was sent an acknowledgement of the order along with a shipping date of 5 to 7 days. After waiting 20 days and not receiving the product I called and called and called. I was put on hold numerous times and always for at least a half hour at a time. When I finally reached someone I was told the waybill number was wrong on my acknowledgement and told another would be shipped out immediately. After waiting another 5 days I called back. I was transferred from one extension to another and finally after an hour switched to a supervisor who told me he would take care of everything and e-mail me and give me a personal phone call back to tell me the status of my order. It never happened, no call and no e-mail. I then waited another day and called again, again I was put on hold for a half hour, when I did reach someone I immediately asked for a supervisor. I must say that in the end the supervisor did resolve the situation. However is my time less valuable then there time? I feel like sending Dell an invoice to cover the many hours that I was kept on hold. My time is very valuable to me. I feel that if everyone would get together and send an invoice for there time to Dell Corporate Headquarters in Texas just maybe they would get the idea that people's time is not without cost. I have purchased two Dell computers and am ready for another but it will not be a Dell because of this experience.

I don't want to deal with them anymore.

Company: Sprint PCS
Address : 6200 Sprint Pkwy., Overland Park, KS 66251, United States

URL: www.sprint.com

I had a previous account with Sprint PCS that went to write-off status. I had fallen behind in bills because I'm a single mom and can't depend on my child support. So money that I would normally have had to be used to support my son. Well I got my tax refund back and the first thing I did was go pay Sprint PCS, store # 143. I paid them my back money and security deposit in cash the rep that helped me was Martin Ruiz, who told me that I could get another account opened with a security deposit of $125. I decided to pay it even though rep said I could wait until later that afternoon. Martin said if I wanted to take care of everything at once, he would accept the security deposit. He told me it would take almost 2 hours for the write-off status to be corrected and that I could go to the Sprint store near my home. I went there and was in the process of activating a new phone when the computer system said that my deposit was no longer $125 but $250, in the space of less than 5 hours. I called the original store and they wouldn't give my money back to me. The supervisor stated that I would have to wait several weeks to get my refund back from customer care in a check form. When I asked why I couldn't get it back in same manner it was given, she became rude and said that's not their policy. On the back of their receipt, however, it states that if you pay by credit card, your refund will be done by a credit to card. If you pay by check, they will mail a check back to you. Unfortunately, I paid cash and they couldn't help me. I called customer care and they were very unhelpful. Sprint PCS customer care never apologized for their theft of my money. I didn't utilize their wireless services so there was no need to hold onto my money. They told me that they would issue a check and have it to me within 48 hrs. The Sprint Rep who told me that changed it to cutting a check within 48 hrs and then mailing it within 2-14 days. They wouldn't even honor what Mark had said concerning the security deposit. All I want is my money so that I don't have to deal with them anymore.

THIS IS A SCAM!!!

Company: Cingular Wireless
Address : 4505 S. Meridian,, Puyallup, Washington 98373, United States


Using my cell phone in my calling area I have been charged over $300.00 in roaming fees. These erroneous fees have shown up on my bill for the past two months. Cingular will no longer remove any incorrect charges. I was told I would have to switch to a more expensive plan with few minutes that I have now to stop incurring incorrect roaming fees. This is unacceptable! After having my plan for two year without any incorrect charges, since the advent of their new "no roaming" plans, Cingular is trying to get long-time, loyal customers who are happy with their plans to change to more expensive services. Moreover, Cingular, admittedly, does not inform customers on the phone display, or in any other way that the phone is roaming. One would assume when using it in his/her home area, it will not be charging .45 cents/min. This is not the case. I find it unlawful for Cingular to charge customers without notice. Especially when these fees are incorrect. Since Cingular can not honor the terms of my contract, by allowing me to make "free" calls when in my home state, I asked that I be released from my contract (without fees) due to their breach. They said no, I would have to pay for that too. Ultimately, Cingular is charging fees no one can prove to customers who are within the range of their contract and have been provided no notice. Cingular claims the only way to not insure incorrect fees is to change the terms of the contract, where the customer pays more and gets less. THIS IS A SCAM!!!

Unexpected...

Company: AOL
Address : 22000 AOL Way, Dulles, 20166, United States

URL: http://www.aol.com/

I have had AOL as my internet provider for more than two years. And I have never had a problem with them until recently. I had unlimited dial-up for more than a year, at $14.95 for unlimited use. Then I added a high speed modem from my local cable provider. In May I bought a house and no longer could use my modem, the cable company does not serve this area. I called AOL and told them. They told me that by canceling only my Broadband connection I would still have unlimited access to dial-up for $14.95 a month. More or less that my bill would pick up where it had left off ... $14.95. So in June I found on my checking statement that AOL had taken $50 from my account. So, I call AOL and get the issue resolved, they refund my money.... 10 days later (it didn't take them 10 days to take it). My July bill was okay, $14.95. Now suddenly I get my checking statement for the month of August, and they take another $50. And the unexpected $35.00 they took, caused me to bounce a check... $25.00 to the bank... $25 to the company I wrote the check to. So I call and get a lady that I can't understand and who obviously does not understand me. But she finally got tired of me talking slow for her and decided to give me my money back. So today I get online w/AOL support and tell them I no longer want them to take auto withdrawals from my account and I want to be billed to my home (as I have before). The support person then tells me that I have to keep letting them take money from my account because they no longer allow payments from any other source. What crock!! So now they say they are willing to give me back my $35.00, but that now doesn't cover the other $50 that I have been charged for that bounced check. And AOL sure didn't want to pay that!! I have already talked to my credit union and will have to file an affidavit stating that I've told them. I printed the IM correspondence between myself and the tech, and will be going to my credit union first thing tomorrow. I know of at least one other person they have done this too recently and she never received her $95 back that they scammed her out of. They have done this to so many people for too long somebody needs to file a class action lawsuit against these jerks and make them pay for the damage they are causing people.

This company is hard-nosed!

Company: T-Mobile
Address : 12920 S.E. 38th St., Bellevue, WA 98006, United States

URL: www.t-mobile.com

Well, well, here we are again submitting yet another report on a major corporation. Well this time it is TMobile and from the looks of it in your database it isn't the first time that they have been submitted. This company is hard-nosed, has deceptive marketing practices as evidenced by their description of their plans on their web-site. Information about what they will charge you for (incoming calls, calls made to your voice-mail box - both for messages left by callers and also when you call in to review messages, outgoing calls) is buried all the way down at the bottom of the page with an innocuous link "important information". When you click on the link, it uses "pop-up" technology and if you have pop-up ad blocker in use, nothing will display. Not a mistake, but a deliberate deceptive practice. Also, if they make a mistake with inputting the calling plan you select, it is your loss, as they will refuse to correct their mistake, refuse to make accommodations, refuse to compromise, refuse to do what is "right", and if you have a billing dispute with them, they will close down your account, and charge a $200 termination fee even if you are a month or two away from the end of the 1 year contract, when they really should only charge $19.99/mo until the end of the contract. No room for talking with these snakes, their policy is to send disputes in for collection within 30
days (they must reply to complaints made on-line with the FCC within 45 days). Getting it into a collection agency removes them from the obligation to further discuss any errors they have made, deceptive practices they have used, just "we don't give a damn, the contract says this, and we don't have to be held accountable for any mistakes we made, we just want as much money as we can screw you out of, and the heck with you." Stand and deliver" tactics.

Think twice before..

Company: Home Depot
Address : 2455 Paces Ferry Road, Atlanta, 30339, United States


I ordered a Whirlpool dishwasher from Home Depot on 5/29/02. Upon completion of the order process, I was informed that I would be notified by my Home Depot to arrange for delivery once my dishwasher arrived at the Store. On June 15, after no call from Lowe's to arrange delivery, I called the store to ask when my dishwasher was expected to arrive. The individual answering the telephone in customer service told me that my dishwasher had been there for "a while." When I asked to be transferred to delivery I was told that they entire department had already gone home for the day. It was suggested that I called back the next day at 7:00 am. The next day at 7:00 am I called, and was then informed that the staff was in the morning meeting, and that I would have to call back in about 15 minutes. I gave those 20, called at 7:20 and was told that everyone in delivery was out making deliveries. I left a message for the delivery manager. The next day, after still not hearing from the delivery manager, I called again. I was told that he was in a meeting, so I left a message saying that I would be home for an hour and that I would like a call back. Four hours later the delivery manager called back, but by then I had already left for work. This kind of run-around continued for a week. I was never called again despite the fact that I left several messages for delivery. Finally, I called Home Depot to cancel my order. I told the manager on duty that I intended to buy a dishwasher from the appliance specialty store across the street from Home Depot. Two days later I went to another store to buy a dishwasher and they did have a much nice Kitchen aid dishwasher for the same price as the dishwasher I had originally purchased at Home Depot. When I called Home Depot main customer service number to complain, a very pleasant woman took down my complaint and said she would have the store manager call me to correct the situation. I told her that I wasn't planning to do anymore waiting around for Home Depot to call. I just wanted the e-mail address of the president of the company. This company doesn't get it at all!!! In my opinion Home Depot company is a scam. Think twice before buying anything from such people.

DO NOT SHOP HERE!!

Company: Circuit City Stores
Address : 9954 Mayland Drive, Richmond, 23233, United States


I ordered a video card online from them recently. It arrived promptly, but was broken. It was not damaged during shipping, because the outer shipping box and the package box were not at all damaged. My husband called customer service and asked for a call tag to be sent along with another product which they refused to do. After arguing at length with a supervisor he was promised a new product would be shipped 2nd day. It did not arrive. A second, third, and fourth call all resulted in the same promise....that the product would be sent 2nd day and arrive in two days. FOUR times we were lied to and promised a delivery date for a new product which has never arrived. Every time my husband has called, he's been transferred to a phone that never picks up and has to keep calling back and demanding a supervisor. These so-called supervisors are the ones lying about sending the replacement which they know they will not do. At one point, we were told to mail back the broken item and only then would they send a new one. This was after already promising the new one was shipped two times! I mailed it back and a week later they still claim no record of ever receiving it. Days after mailing it, a UPS calls tag arrived after they already told us to mail it ourselves. Today, my husband is being told that they cannot send a new item until they conduct an investigation on why the original item was broken. How can they do that when they claim to not have it? And why is that our problem? We are out $185 for the item and $7 for sending it back to them. The customer service number goes to India and even the number we were given to complain about the customer service number goes to the very same place, India. We are told there is not a single number to call to speak to an American who has some concept of American quality customer service. How terrible customer service they are having!! I was totally ripped-off.

STAY AWAY FROM DELL!!!!!

Company: Dell Computer Corporation
Address : 1 Dell Way, Round Rock, TX 78682, United States

URL: www.dell.com

I emailed Dell to find out what type of Ethernet card I have; they then took $30 from my checking account, without my approval or authorization. In addition, I have never had contact with Computer Services and Dell must have given them my checking account number-which I used to purchase my computer originally. Because I am on Social Security Disability, the timing in Staling this money left me overdrawn in my checking account, and the bank has charged an accumulation of $96-in addition to the original $30 stolen. I have had multiple telephone and email contacts with "customer services" but none was able to rectify the problem. Eventually they promised to return a total of $62 to my checking account and all admitted the money should not have been removed from my account in the first place. TWICE now they have "accidentally cancelled" the replacement of these funds in my account. I have filed a complaint with the Federal Trade Commission; the Bank is conducting an investigation-but Dell does not care. Not at all. Apparently, they can sell computers and steal money from accounts, and never have to worry others will find out. I will pursue criminal charges-but realize this will be an uphill battle. STAY AWAY FROM DELL!!!!!

Can't get a replacement.

Company: Room Store Furniture
Address : 15 CARROLL PLAZA, NA, MD 21157, United States


I bought a dining and living room package in Sept.2005. After we made the down payment I was told that some of the items were
not available and will be delivered in November, 2005 but was actually delivered in March, 2006. Then the lampshades were
defective and it took them to 4 months to replace it. Recently, my dining table glass top had a chip on it so we filed claims from Guardsman because we paid a protection plan for the items. Guardsman gave us a check much lower than the cost of the merchandize because they said it was what was reflected in the invoice. They were right as I found out the price reflected on the invoice was much lower than the original price. I don't know why. Now we can't get a replacement for the glass top. When will Room Store Furniture be true to their commitments? When I saw them featured on TV for a complaint from a customer, I told myself it was not gonna happen to me.

Unhelpful...

Company: Sprint PCS
Address : P.o Box 8077, Kentucky, 40742, United States


Sprints customer service system is set up so that its telephone representatives can be as rude, unhelpful, and as insulting as they like without fear of punishment. The system also makes it impossible to follow up on situations/problems that require a significant amount of time to fix, thus making it impossible for customers to get any sort of help. For example: when you call the customer service number, representatives who cannot help you or answer your questions typically will purposely hang up on customers, knowing that the customers have no way of knowing which rep it was that was helping them, and therefore have no way of contacting a supervisor or getting that rep punished. Reps will not give out their last name, employee number, and call center id, anything that would allow a customer to either lodge a formal complaint or get some justice for how they were treated. Sometimes reps will give out phony supervisor names and numbers to customers, so that when the customer calls thinking that they will be able to talk to some sort of manager about their issue, they reach a wrong number. Basically sprint has it set up so that they can make billing errors in their favor, and even the most determined customers have only a minute chance of getting anything done about it.

TOO BAD...

Company: Vonage
Address : 2147 Route 27, New Jersey, 8817, United States


I was supposed to receive one month free and half price monthly service. I authorized a one time fee of $9.95 for shipping. No monthly fee was allowed. I received adapter and it would not work. I called their tech dept. They spent over 3 hours and conceded that it would not work for me. They told me to return adapter. I put it in original box, marked return to sender. That month there was a $37.99 fee stolen from my account. I called (always at least 25 minute wait) spoke to Brian; he agreed I never had service but did not have authority to reimburse me. I asked to speak to supervisor of accounts-Kathleen. She said it was past the 30 day money back guarantee, so she could not reimburse me. I said I never had service. She said she knows-nothing she could do. I called President of company-Michael Snider. He has some flunky call me back because "he does not speak to customers". After arguing for over an hour, He says I should have been given a secret number to return the adapter. I said I wasn't given anything from the tech guy. He says "sorry" the only way we will stop taking money from your account is if you pay $119 cancellation fee. "I NEVER HAD SERVICE "there should be no cancellation. HE says "TOO BAD" and hangs up. I have all the employee ID numbers that I spoke to, if they are real. Everyone in the office directory is named Smith except for one Poindexter. Fake names too!! Criminals often use fake names.

Never do what they promised.

Company: Rhodes Furniture
Address : 12175 S Strang Line Rd Ste 1, Olathe, KS United States


We purchased a dining room suite from Rhodes Furniture in November of 2006. At the store I noticed some scratches and asked them if they could repair those. I was told that the scratches would be repaired and that they would reduce the price of the furniture. The day before Thanksgiving the furniture was delivered and set up. When the workers left I noticed that the marble on the buffet was cracked, the touch-activated lights in the hutch did not work, the finish on the table was peeling off and there was a big chunk of wood missing on the hutch. I immediately called the store and was assured that the furniture would be repaired. I called back several times and each time there was some excuse as to why the furniture had not been repaired. One day I called to ask about it and the manager told me that we bought it "as-is" and that they would not be repairing it. The furniture we purchased was the floor model and we were offered to have furniture delivered from the warehouse but we needed it and were promised that the scratches would be repaired. Since then the district manager has promised that it would be repaired and that the store was under new management so we would not have to deal with the obnoxious manager we had been putting up with in the past. That was in May and here it is December. They refuse to repair the furniture and they are threatening repossession. Why should we have to keep paying on the furniture if they won't repair it as they promised? I know we have to pay for what we buy but I don't want to keep giving them money if they never do what they promised to do.

NOT working.

Company: Bellsouth
Address : 312 Saint Andrews Rd, Columbia, 29210, United States

URL: bellsouth.net

I am wondering if Bellsouth is treating all of their customers as they are treating me. We discovered charges to our phone bill (Bell South) that were charged without proper authorization. When I called the number on the Bell South bill to find out what they were for, they gave the name of one of our sisters as having authorized the service. This sister has never heard of them. We never agreed to the service or any "free" offers from them. In spite of this, we have been charged and we consider that BellSouth is negligent and party to this rip-off company by knowingly charging customers who have falsely charged. By being in the business BellSouth should be aware of the dishonorable practices of this partner company. I had no problem finding numerous reports of ill use by online services. Does this mean that if we have BellSouth as our telephone carrier that anyone who wishes may send fraudulent charges and BellSouth will send them on? As part of our agreement with BellSouth (to whom we pay a sturdy business charge each month!) we now feel that a clause should be added that we will only be responsible to BellSouth for BellSouth charges. Obviously BellSouth is NOT working for ITS customers!

I don't understand how services including telephone can be turned off three days after I made a payment in cash. I paid on 1/12/07 then services were shut off on 1/16/07!! Customer Service said there wasn't anything they could do about my telephone and it would be turned on in 24 to 48 hours and they were sorry for my inconvenience!! This isn't the first time this happened to me, but the third. Each time I was charged a disconnect fee & reconnect fee, BUT I MADE THE PAYMENT then was without service. I've wasted more than 8 hrs on the phone with Comcast Customer Service, and although they are polite, I can't seem to get anyone who knows how to serve the customer. By the way, did you know that every time Comcast sends out a "reminder notice" they charge 1.99 as a "Soft Disconnect Fee??" I'm a singe mom of two and NEVER missed a monthly payment! When you pay a month in advance and pay your bill, how can they turn services off legally? Does anyone else have this problem????

Lack proper training or knowledge.

Company: Dell Inc.
Address : One Dell Way, NA, 78682, United States


I would like to say that my past experiences with Dell have been excellent. The present bad experience was with Dell Sales to order the correct memory chip (ram) to speed up my slow computer. I gave the order person the info. On my Dell computer and he suggested a 1 gig card. I ordered the card he recommended and it arrived a few days later. To be doubly sure the card would work, I called the card manufacturer tech. dept. The rep. checked the computer specs and told me the card was not the right one and might damage my computer if I tried to install it. I called Dell Sales and relayed the problem and this rep. (who was knowledgeable) also said the chip I received was wrong. He suggested a replacement and I ordered it. I was switched to another rep. to return the wrong chip. Although very pleasant, she kept me on the line about 20 minutes, apparently not being able to fill my request without frequent pauses to get back up. I finally asked for a supervisor to complete the simple return for "full credit" including pick up. I probably spent more than an hour with this experience, fortunately, on toll free numbers, between Dell and the chip manufacturer. The bottom line is that I have lost faith in Dell's ability to provide proper assistance to the buyer as some of their reps.

I received a check with this for 4968.23 to pay taxes and fees.I have tried to call the number (647)834-6354. It says their machine cannot accept any more calls until after the holidays due to not enough room. I have not tried to deposit the check as I am calling the bank it is drawn on on Tuesday after the holiday. I have contacted the better business bureau and the attorney general to have them look into this as well.
The letter also says that the lottery is sponsored by Publishers clearing house, readers digest and online games.

"I was never in my life got so much" laughter!!!

Company: Polynesian Cultural Center
Address : 55-370 Kamehameha Hwy, Laie, HI 96762, United States


Dear Joel,
I'm sorry to hear that your trip to Laie, Hawaii to Laie, HI wasn't very enjoyable, even though you'd made a long way from home to reach out to the famous polynesian cultural center and didn't get the experience you were paying for...Actually, did you really? We were there last year and everything was fine except for the little rain (which I suppose comes free with any package in Hawaii). Luau was great. The signals that you 'worked' hard with: you actually call 'hula', and if you suck at it - you ain't getting any food...'cause you've got to pick up your a$$ and your plate, or plate and then the rest (order doesn't matter unless you just realized that you're being scammed and pick up a fork) and get the dish that you want: it really is a buffet. I couldn't stop eating: it was so tempting to try every single thing from over there so with every new plate it was getting harder and harder to pick up my own cushion-buns. I don't know about the reasons behind you're blaming the attraction but it seems to me that you're so out of your mind and Hawaii. Good luck to you spending your time wisely and not getting into trouble.

Don't pay rebate.

Okay I guess it correct why tigerdirect don't pay rebate even after we complete their terms and conditions! Well, yesterday I call them on the toll free number and left the phone on speaker for an hour waiting for their exclusive 'help desk'.. The day before yesterday I spent 1:40 waiting. Ok they are toll free numbers so they are their dime. Every minute you spend on hold will cost them money. Hmmm May be that's why they are not paying rebate or they are not afford to pay rebate.

Poor customer service.

Company: Oreck Holdings
Address : 100 Plantation Road, New Orleans, LA 70123, United States


Their falling side is they have poor customer support and the product doesn't help with allergies! I bought three air purifies even after reading bad reviews regarding their customer support. The very first time call them for some help they kept me waiting for 45 minutes and then gave up.. The second time I ended over 20 minutes and they never answered my calls. They not even bothered to reply my emails and all I asked was for where I will find the serial number. If you ever buy from them don't expect to get any customer service rep online.

Expensive...

Company: Sephora
Address : 525 Market Street, 11th Floor, San Francisco, 94105, United States


I get my eye definer from our local store which very cheap but I think it good then what I have paid for Sephora definer. The
cheap one stays for long hours and it looked awesome as well as went on very easily. Well, Sephora definer is expensive and also worst; after every ten minutes it was all smudged up making me look extremely tired. Couples of hours later, my carefully placed lines were disappeared and reapplying would only make it worse. I would like to continue with my old cheap eye liner that lives up to its name 'outlast' even though it is more difficult to apply and doesn't have as clean as a look as Sephora did the first few minutes of wearing it.

Not satisfied.

Company: Dr Pepper Starcenter
Address : 1400 S Pipeline Rd, Euless, TX 76040, United States


I was a new skater when I joined Dr. Pepper Star center. They have 2 rinks regulation sized rinks and I liked the feature. You can start your practice early morning at 6 am which is I think best time as there are no much people. Ok so I agree that Dr. Pepper Star center is amazing for there service but I am not satisfied with the people giving away services to people. Well, I was a new skater I required some more practice or coaches help but whenever I search for coaches they are not in there place and other coach will not help. I asked the other coach to help me learn balancing but he told me the one who was helping me was not there and I will have wait for half an hour. I explained him that I have to attend office, he told me if cant wait please leave! He was rude; their coaches have no concern with the member's problem. I think the staff needed to be changed so that new learners like me will get more help.

I was going to meet my teacher after so many years I left school so I stopped here to purchase flowers for my teacher. I told the store, twenty yellow and red rose's bouquet in glass vas; he said ok and asked me to wait for few minutes. Well, I waited and waited for half an hour and so I ask him exact time I will get my flowers done so I will come and pick up my flowers. He did not reply to me. So I went for some shopping and back after one hour he told me that my bouquet was sold to someone else because I was not there and I will have wait for half an hour more. It was pissing me off. I left the store without any purchase and got a nice gift from store nearby. They are really not capable of doing business so I took my business else where.

It was ridiculous.

Company: Savvy Cellars
Address : 2048 Broadway Street, Redwood City, 94063, United States


Savvy Cellar is not what there name conveys! It is a petty stuod place with confused servers. I remember I had asked the server to serve me a glass of wine and he gave me coke! Even if the color marches I do not think it is in any relation..compare a glass of wine and coke! I was not aware what he had served me till I had a sip. Well, I called another server and ask him to serve wine only wine no coke. Hmm, so here comes my glass of wine. I had two galss of wine and of course I had returned the coke which he had served me. Well, I asked for bill and this guy came in with bill for four wines it was ridiculous I called manager and told him that I had two wines and the server of this cellar got coke when I asked him a glas of wine. The nutty manager did not listen to me and defended himself with mantra ' you will have to pay money for at least three wines because you returned one glass' I finally I told him that I will pay for coke because I did not receive wine but coke and end up the deal here. I think I will not be returning to this place again.

Quality of cheese is bad.

Company: Med Mediterranean Restaurant
Address : 1002 Walnut St, NA, 80302, United States


Great, I find service of this restaurant great. But I am bit disappointed with the kind of food I got to eat. The only dish I like somewhat was trout tapa. They also give me some complimentary dish but I didn't like much or I can say not at all. The margarita pizza I order was bland and cheese used on it was not of high or standard quality. Prices were ok. Well I do not emphasis on every restaurant has to be great or food should be great but here I found nothing interesting and specially the pizza and quality of cheese they use is bad. They do not used even a standard quality cheese and charge extra for good cheese that too if asked by the consumer. Well, everything was reasonable that the zingier sauce which was tasty and healthy.

Company: Baby Guard Pool Fence Co

I am much concerned about the kids in my home; our swimming pool is vast and had no fence so I contracted Baby Guard Pool Fence Co to put fence to my pool. It is better to take precaution as my nephew and nieces come to my house very often and I do not want to take any risk for that. Well, they do not fix it properly; the cut side of two bars has come out and could easily heart anyone. I called them up and told them about the bars that were not fixed. No one turn up to my complaint; I even visited their office there employees are rude and not helpful. I end up with the bad installation by Baby Guard Pool Fence Co. They are bad people...

We didn't have garage to our house so decided to get it down before monsoon. After the brick work was done we called Gator Paint & Decorating Inc to get it painted. They were supposed to use the machine sprays to color our garage. Well, he spray they used was cheap quality and able to spread the white color all over the garage floor. They didn't even bothered to clean the color on floor while it was still wet; my husband told the guy to clean it but the color was dried till now, ok after the service guies got t he instruction to clean up our floor they started it but it had very poor result, color didn't go properly. I will recommend to reacf for some other company which provides paint service.

Ok. Izzy's Burger Spa is quite bad looking place. I find food so so ok, but one can't manage to sit and eat there. I dare to go in the restaurant for burger treat, the place was not clean and had very weird look indeed. The host was looking like a hand painted sign and stands next to a run fence. But I was disappointed to see the burger, it was layered with a chicken patties, tomatoes and onions and some greens leaves, it tasted like a hell. I didn't like it at all. I wish I would have ate something else in the restaurant nearby.

Clarke's have the best charcoal burger sin our area; I have heard that charcoal burgers also improve health so I sometimes like to eat them here. Burgers are just fine and ok but I do not like the service people and cashier here; they are quit rude and unwilling to help consumers. The previous day I went there, something new could be seen here. The burger I got in my plate was burned more then usual and more I was shocked to find charcoal pieces in my burger bun bread! Thank god I realize it before I could swallow just because some muddy stone kind of thing come between my teeth; I spat it out in my plate only. I know it was little disgusting but better to spat out rather to fall sick. Since then I have not visited even that lane again and do not wish to return there.

The location of Iberville Suites is great; I was there for my friends wedding. Yeah, I shall advise you not to take your own vehicle it is expensive here, I did a big mistake by bring it here, It cost me then I stayed in here. Well, I also noticed that host I mean manager was less happy with my appearance in Iberville, every time I went to the counter to take keys he made bored face. They didn't get the enough breakfast to at least fill my stomach, they give me two slice of bread and plane butter; I need a heavy breakfast as I am on fieldworks and so I am habituated. I told them about that, the manager told me I will have to pay extra money for four slice of bread with jam or butter! This was ridiculous about this hotel. Well, in short I am not impressed with the kind of service and treatment I got from Iberville. Now it is up to you what you want to choose.

For first three visits was good but I find there Burritos bland in last few visits. I hate there hamburgers or cheese burgers they are worst then ever I had so far. Though have good menu they do not have goood menu. Yourself try it out and you will get the whole picture of there service and food. Charges are ok.

They have everything in there store, meats, seafood, fruits canned food etc. The canned food are not good here, they are stale and some times even have passed the expiry dates, it seems as if they do not check their stock before out to sell then it may be fresh or expired food. Yeah but try their hot meal, you can even take it home.

A rip off is all they are and all they want is your money so if you don't want to get ripped off or want your money to go in worthy hands then please stay away form University computers.

We have had enough with Takoma Animal Clinic.

Company: Takoma Park Animal Clinic
Address : 7330 Carroll Ave, Takoma Park, MD 20912, United States


We have had enough with Takoma Animal Clinic. I have read many good reviews about them and don't understand why these people like this place so much. It is bad really bad and I would never want to go there again. The vets there are very rude and don't seem to like their jobs as much as they should. There is one vet though that I used to trust and he too let us down. The others were simply irritating. One evening my cat was in crisis and we called the clinic and the receptionist or whoever answered the call told us to get our cat down to the clinic immediately. We got there as fast as we could. When we got there we got to know that there were no vets in and no one seem to know when one would arrive. I was so frustrated we went all the way there to get to know that no one was there to help us. I asked her why she couldn't tell me this over the phone and refer another clinic as we were in an emergency. I will not go here again. As far as our favorite vet well not any more is concerned we can't trust him any more coz he had prescribed the wrong drugs for my cat and thank God I realized that and did not feed my cat the medicine.

Company: Flemings Auto Service
Address : 928 Harrison St, San Francisco, CA 94107, United States


I had a terrible experience with Flemings auto service. One morning as I was on my way home from my friends my car broke down. A tow truck hauled my car to Flemings auto service. They told me that the problem was with the fuel pump and that they would be able to fix it and return it on Monday. The next day which I got a call from them and they told me that my car was fixed and that I could pick it up. I was very impressed on hearing that. I thought to myself that these people are quick and hopefully good. Well my hope was shattered when I reached there. They told me that they took it for a test drive and found out that they had fixed it backwards and could get it fixed the right way and return it only by Tuesday. I was furious I had to spend $25 to get there to pick my car up and now they tell me that it is not done yet. They were not even ready to drop my car over at my place after it was done. I was very disappointed and will never return to Flemings.

I had taken my car here once and that was it I was left disappointed and very upset with them. They are very bad at their work. My truck failed some test and I was told by Quality that they would fix it. I paid them the money for the repairs. They wasted a lot of my time and money and finally did not fix the problem. I had to take it over to the dealers to get it fixed properly. I lost my money and wasted a lot of time here. Do not go to Quality they don't seem to know much and promise things and never do it or should I say cannot do it. They are irresponsible and very hard to deal with. I will not go here again. Beware do not waste your precious time and hard earned money here they are a bunch of foolish people who are only interested in your money and nothing else. They don't care about customer satisfaction or showing excellence in their job. Very bad Quality!

My experience with Honda Of Oakland was a bad one. I was not impressed one bit. I had heard good as well as bad reviews about them but thought that the customers who did not have a good experience may be some big issue. But after my experience I realized that they are not at all good. The guy in the sales department was very very rude and the car salesman was terrible to deal with he was very pushy and he tried really hard I feel he tried so hard that I wouldn't buy the car even if I wanted to. He was way pushy than I accepted a salesman to be. It's a fact all of them are but this guy was over the top. He was not helpful he wanted to sell us the car he liked and was not attentive to our needs. If you want the best place to get your car with a best service well this surely is not the place for you.

There were black lines on my screen and the brightness wasn't coming high. It was not enough. I did not know who to go to, to get it fixed right. I thought that Compustar will be able to help me. Well I was wrong they made the condition of my computer even worse. They did not know what to do and so they dismantled my pc and could not find out what was wrong so when they were assembling it back they broke something and did not know or did not have the part to fix it back. I had to get it done at a local service center and they got it done right and really quick. I was very angry and disappointed with Compustar. They are really bad do not go to them if you value your money and time coz they don't. Please do your self a favor and stay away form Compustar.

Have a nice day.

Company: Nextel
Address : 6391 Sprint Parkway, Overland Park, KS 66251, United States


This company has a lot to learn on how to treat its customers. It started on 02/03/2006 me and my husband went to the Nextel store located on Dunn ave in Jacksonville Florida we waited for at least 25 minutes before we were even assisted. Finally the sales rep came over and asked us want we needed. We informed him that we would like to purchase two boost mobile phones and get the premium plan which is like a pre paid plan but for like $49.99 a month and the funds come directly from your checking account. He seemed aware of what we wanted, we picked out the phones, he told us the total we paid for the phones and then he handed us the phones in a bag and said have a nice day. We were then curious and asked how do we activate them? He said oh just open the package and it explains it all. We left the store, went home to activate them call the number inside the package and told them the exact same thing we want both phones on a premium plan. The rep activated the phones and then transferred us over to the 'premium plan department' where we were then informed that we could not have two phones on a premium plan using a same credit card even if the phones and credit card is in the same name. The rep even went as far as saying she didn't care if the phones were in 'Mickey Mouse's name!! WOW!! GREAT SERVICE HUH? We then tried to take the phones back on 02/04/2006 they informed us we could not because we already activated them so now we are stuck with so crummy phones without the service we wanted in the first place and this company does not care. We even spoke with a supervisor who told me he didn't even have a complaint line phone number to give to me. Needless to say this was the worst service I have ever had and I wouldn't refer anyone to boost mobile. We only got it because all of our friends have it now our friends don't even want the service anymore. Should have tried T-mobile......

Same problem uhh.

Company: Frigidaire
Address : P.O. Box 212378, Martinez, GA 30917, United States


This is the 2nd time we have had this problem. We purchased the refrigerator in 2005. The 1st time the refrigerator was only about a year old and we saw water coming out from under it on the brand new wood floor. It was fixed by a repairman at that time. Now 2007 and we had no clue that it was leaking again until we noticed that the water was leaking through the floor and down a basement wall instead of coming out under the refrigerator although I had investigated why the wood floor was raising up in front of it and could not find any water any where at that time. Well the reason we couldn't find any water was because it was dripping right where the floor and the wall met and was running under the floor and down the wall.

I will never buy.

Company: Home Depot
Address : 179 Dagget Drive, West Springfield, MA 1089, United States


I bought a new GE dryer from Home Depot April, 2006. No problems until 2 weeks ago when the dryer would not dry. Since my dryer is less than 1 year old and all parts and labor are still under warranty, I called GE to schedule a service call. To my surprise, I had to wait 1 week for a service technician to come to my house. The tech said that I needed a new circuit board (computer dryer). So, he ordered this part and it would be another week and he would come back to the house to "fix" the dryer. The tech asked if I wanted a morning or afternoon service call. I requested a morning call (8a.m.-noon versus 1p.m.-5:00p.m.) The night before the 2nd service call, the automated GE system called my house confirming the service call for 1p.m. to 5p.m. -- I had already taken off work for the morning service call and the tech never told me that I may not get the morning time -- he acted like it was a done deal! Today, the day of the 2nd service call, the tech showed up at 4:21p.m. He installs the new board. He walks out the door at 4:39p.m. Without me signing anything, etc... I ask him if the dryer is fixed -- he says HE HAS TO GET TO HIS NEXT SERVICE CALL AND IF THE DRYER STILL DOESN'T WORK TO CALL FOR SERVICE AGAIN!!!! This enrages me -- I have already waited for 2 weeks for the dryer to be fixed and this is his attitude without even fixing the dryer. I immediately call GE and the lady on the phone is very apologetic; however, the only thing that she can do is reschedule my service (1 weekend and 4 business days later). I think that the service tech. KNEW that the dryer wasn't working and didn't want to deal with it. The GE lady on the phone said that the techs. Don't work past 5 p.m., which is ridiculous -- they should work until the job is completed correctly and GE should pay them for this. On a positive note, whenever I have called GE, the people on the phone have been very helpful and apologetic. I WILL NEVER BUY ANOTHER GE PRODUCT DUE TO THIS SERVICE.

DO NOT TRUST THEM!

Company: Direct TV
Address : PO Box 9033, Littleton, CO 80160, United States


Do not trust your money with direct TV; they are a bunch of liars. I recently tried to purchase a dish service with them, but before I could do that, they asked me to put down a $200 deposit. So when the sent the tech out to install, first of all he didn't know anything about the questions I asked him, he couldn't install the dish due to some restrictions on our place, so I asked to cancel my order, and when I canceled the order they told me they would refund me my $200 in 3-5 business days, 2 weeks later, still no refund. I have talked to a representative every single day since then, and have told every person my situation, but no one ever has answers for me, they all tell me the same thing, 'yes, I see the cancellation on 12/4, so you should be getting your refund.' The last time I spoke with another rep, he tells me that he has reviewed my account with a supervisor and I'm not allowed my $200 back because it was for my credit check, and I told him that it doesn't cost $200 to do a credit check, that that$200 was a deposit BECAUSE of my credit, but because I am not getting service from them, I should be refunded back my $200. I work in a call center, and know what kinds of things you can pull, but I have never heard of such a bullshit place like direct TV. It is so impersonal, you have to keep telling different people what you're calling about, because you can never reach the same people you spoke to before, because they are so secretive with who they are, and won't even give you a contact number on how you can reach them back if you wanted to follow up on your situation. DO NOT TRUST THEM!

Ymca is a great place for you and your child to exercise, the club is spacious. Well, I have experienced different story of this health club. First it is not very clean place, I mean it looks as if not cleaned for ages. The pool locker rooms are a little dirty; the upstairs dance studio and surrounding area have deadly unclean smell that no one can stand there for a minute. The indoor swimming pool itself is also a disappointment; some times the water seems murky so I avoid going there. I am also not sure if the money they collect as membership fees is eligible or not! Recently I have removed my membership from this club and joined somewhere else.

I did not like the staff!

Company: Garden State Lighting & Accessories
Address : 1724 Marlton Pike E ,, Cherry Hill, NJ 8003, United States


It is a decent store for selecting your lighting accessories. The only drawback here is price and staff! They have great collection of fancy crystal chandeliers then any other store. Once I stopped here for buying some lighting stuff, I was so confused with their antique selection that I called a staff member to help me buying one. Well, this guy was not a friendly buddy, he told me to call someone else because it was his tea time. So I call the other guy, he heard me calling but quickly passes on by me and I was left helpless. I decided to go somewhere else where I will get some help and that time manager asks me, 'why I didn't purchase anything did I not like their stuff?' Yes, I answered him that I did not like your staff!

Never in future will deal with this firm by choice!

Company: Maxwell Realty Company
Address : 1736 Pine St ,, Philadelphia, PA 19103, United States


They have very less number of agents spread in our town. I have dealt with two, the second agent was snotty. She had a great attitude, she continued to rude stares while showing a property. In my opinion one doesn't have to grandly dress as if going to a wedding just to look for an apartment. This agent had the nerve to call me up and speak to me as if I was beneath her. The other agent was very courteous and professional. She will not answer my queries and continue to give me rude stare. There are many other agents who are willing to be helpful and courteous. One doesn't ever like to be treated like dirt while looking for a property. I never in future will deal with this frim by choice again.

Don't eat from them they are dangerous...

Company: Day Break Cafe
Address : 10900 NE 8th St Ste 120 ,, Bellevue, WA 98004, United States


Here, in our area there are no much sandwich shop so the only option left with people is café shops'; they are nice options for hangouts with friends. Day Break Café is just in next lane from my house so of course it is better option left with me and it has quite decent crowd. However, if you are health conscious then it may not prove a good cafeteria for you; there stuff is full of cheap fats (for example- mayo) and empty calories which don't suit every body's health trust me! I had some health issues after consuming their burgers very often; I never had such issues before, there was severe stomach ache for two days so I consult my doctor. My doctor advised me to stop consuming burgers and sandwich because a lump of cheese was found in my tummy. These are not a digestible substance which they use in their food. It was removed by operation and so I had stopped eating any type of cheese and fatty food. Though Day Break Café is cheap don't eat from them they are dangerous..

Whenever I had breakfast there, after paying for my bill the server comes to me saying that they have change for what I had keep to pay my bill; I ignored it fro three time but on fourth day I told him to get change from anywhere from hell also, the manager came to my table and listen to the story and try to convince me that really they are running shortage of change money and asked the server to bring change money from another shop.

Company: Seastar Restaurant
Address : 205 108th Ave NE, Bellevue, WA 98004, United States


They can be undoubtedly call scammers! I was in impression this is real upscale restaurant but I was totally wrong. On my brother in law's birthday we visited Seastar for our dinner. Well, no one from us liked the quantity and food which Seastar served us. The grilled salmon fish which arrived to out table was so small in quantity that no one could shared or at least taste this fish. This is just an example but all what came to our table was in some or the other way disappointing. Though they take a good value for their food, it didn't deserve that much. Plus service is also, they missed out our order once and brought wrong dish once on that day. I will not recommend this restaurant to any one I know.

The furniture you will get from heartwood Co. is really nice.

Ok, I will write a comment on this store. It is nice neat store with fair selection of clothes and other knick knack and more. They also have gift shop inside the store. You will soon notice that the employees here are not friendly and will try to run if they notice you coming to them for help, they try their best believe, I was in here for an hour and one hour is enough to get any experience. I asked an employee about its size and he said go there they fare will help you and he disappeared well, the other guy was standing there but when he saw he coming there he turned and started chatting with other employee. It is not expensive but however to me it wasn't worth the money I paid out to go there.

I apologize for euphemism but they really have bad burritos. I'd ask for another but they ready to offer me another dish and not the burritos, it stink something burned!

This place is great if you are on date but may be worst with large group. Note: I said large not extra large. Well, I and boyfriend celebrated our anniversary and just next week we decided to have party with our group. Our group is nice but the service made it little messy though! Obviously when you are in group noise has to come from your table and so it was with our group. The stupid waiter come over our table and told us not to make noise; he came three times. Then because our table was noisy no waiter came for long time and also wrong order come in was another reason. The manager was really rude to us which were conveying a message 'not next time again!' We paid good tip in spite of bad service but not going again just as the manager conveyed we had really bad dinner!

ScamCLub.com itself is a Scam

Company: Christian Wilson
Address : P.O. Box 311, Laie, HI 96762, United States

URL: islandtrend.com

I read a recent submission on scamclub.com that was totally incorrect and impossible, which leads me to believe that some or all of the scams may be generated by scamclub.com themselves since their website is monetized by google adword ads. The supposed criticism a "user" posted about of a company posted had no names, dates or relevant details to support their complaint.Each of scamclub.com's submissions trigger a google alert and any comments (negative or positive) trigger more google alerts. This helps scamclub.com's google Page Rank and will help build their traffic so they can make more money for themselves. All they have to do is target and trash a big brand name that gets a lot of traffic which gives them free listings because of their high page rank, then people will visit the site and hopefully click on their google adword ads. No legimate scam alert company should be monetized. On top of this, they solicit donations! Not everyone is going to be fooled by scamclub.com's devious tactics. Nice try. I will be notifying google adwords, the BBB, and Digg and others to expose scamclub.com as a the biggest scam ever conceived! The public is best served by legitimate consumer fraud services such as the BBB, Consumer Reports, Attorney General offices, etc. I dare you to post this report exactly as it appears, just you have allowed other "users" to post any "complaints" about any "company". Have a nice day.

I was scammed by this fake company when I applied for employment-stuffing envelopes. Not only does the company offer such employment, but they also "sell" lots of other things. Bread, coffee machines, gourmet teas, bread making machines and all that stuff. Please, I bed you DO NOT HAVE ANYTHING TO DO WITH THESE SCAM ARTISTS!!!!!! I also found it to be such a shame that we make payment through google checkout. One would think that google would scan and make sure that the people they deal with are not thieves. They have not only scammed me but many other people as well. When you first send them an email requesting your kit, you get a response that it is on its way.....it is still on its way.....4 MONTHS LATER!!!!!!!!!!
Can someone please find out who the culprits are. I am willing to go to court for my money. How can we get our money back???

It was my son's birthday so we went Toys R Us for getting Ferris wheel. I have learned one thing by going to this store, it is not worthy for pleasant shopping. The staff is not at all helpful; they rarely smile or attempt to be friendly, the store does not inspire enjoyment. I was looking for someone to ask about the Ferris wheel as my kid should also know the operation; but no one could be seen for 25 minutes so I could him/her. Well, I got hold of one lady (she was an employee) but she was so busy that she told me 'Later...I am busy now!' this was ridiculous. I think local stores are better even if they can't give you the aide range of toys!

H&M Clothing has all garbage for sell. The previous day I went there I could only find some outrageous, disgusting color, non
existence quality, shapeless crossed the line between cutting edges cool to strictly for the catwalk.. But the strange thing happened in the store is few days I had seen a female employee wearing the same dress which was there for display in a party. I have seen that drink was spelt on the lower side of the dress and I was really shocked to see that it was the same dress!.It means that employees use the clothes in the store and place them again in the proper place. I think buying clothes from this store is ridiculous, you can get new clothes from other stores if you are ready to pay additional penny!

I would like to criticize the popular Fine Fruit and More, it is more popular for selling fruits and vegetables at cheap price. But they do not actually sell them so cheap; of course they remove a huge profit out! I was purchasing berries from fruit section, they were priced for the big healthy berries but actually they were selling tiny berries. I told the guy selling to reduce the price as they were very small but he stuck to the original store price. I am not happy with the pricing policy of the store and quality good they sale. I also had such experience again on the second trip to the store. Fine fruits and More really sale low quality veggies and fruits at handsome price of healthy veggies/. Buyer be aware!

Well, it was really yucky.actually you couold make out the sour bitter taste as if an old spoiled drink! I told the lady and told her to taste it herself; well she didn't taste it but asked the employee to get another drink. And it was too bad so I asked for another flavor, 'Honeydew'. I thought the name sounds interesting so the drink must be...it had sour taste and smelled like over fermented! Well, I told my money back and left the store. Of course I decided to go next time just to check there quality unfortunately we got shifted in California so there are very less chances to go there again.

Avoid this restaurant as far as you can.

Company: Kum Gang Sang
Address : 49 W 32nd St, New York, 10001, United States


This place is overpriced with average food. I had visited the Korean place; the dishes there are triple times good and double the quantity with same price. I would advice you to go there but avoid this place. I visited this place once the BBQ I asked was raw. I asked them to BBQ in their kitchen only as, if you BBQ it on your table there is possibility of getting the BBQ strong smell absorbed by your clothes. Also the portion was small, I called the waiter and asked him to get it heated again and this time he came with burned BBQ. The lower part of the BBQ had turned to black and tasted burned. The other dishes I ordered were so so ok not remarkable. The complimentary appetizers are the worst choice! Avoid this restaurant as far as you can.

I used it few times while going out with my friends and suddenly got sever headache. I better thought to consult my doctors as pain was unbearable and couldn't get relief even after having painkiller. Well, my doctor told me that it is due to allergy and advised me to discontinue the use of the fragrance I am using. I discontinued it immediately after been advised. Few days later I continued with my old scent and still had the same problem, but this time my doctor told my to stop using any fragrance permanently, it was due to some severe allergy. I can't use any perfume since then!

The next day, I didn't get flowers till 4 pm so I called my boy friend and told him about it. He tried to call Takashimaya but couldn't get anyone on-line till 5 pm. Finally he arranged for urgent flower bouquet which was not even half of what was suppose to be sent. He ordered flowers from Takashimaya because of their reputation for high quality flowers, beautiful and unusual arrangement but he got nothing from them. I would say Takashimaya is unreliable company with bad customer service which sent me flowers a day late.

Ok, we both joined an old lady in front (hmm the lady was just my granny's age and shared with us too) we enjoyed her company but waitress were too bad. The three of them were always confused and got wrong order twice. Our beer was filled continuously by waiters without asking us. We were just about to finish our meal and beer was not needed at that point. We told waiter not to fill, but he forcefully filled and told just drink it.. This is not a fair business practice; they force people and earning money.They are a rip off! Never Ever go to this restaurant they will bring anything that you never ordered to earn money!

Usually they give separate sauce so you can add as per your requirement but what I had received was different. They had put so much sauce, that fires has become gooey and lost its crunchy munch. As I was suppose to pay anyhow whether I eat it or not, I ate them all with sour mouth. They large fries cone I ordered after that was just good treat. Hmm.

Address : 78 W 11th St, New York, NY 10011, United States


I have been going to the French Roast for a while now but could notice that there service worsening by and by. Though they have good menu, waiters doesn't give good service. You have to wait for COUPLE of minutes some time in hours to get your order. I ordered simple dish and a drink but couldn't find anyone for long time to fill second drink or even water. Once I was finish with my food, the waitress who served me was about to leave already, packed, but sat down again and started to drink with manager at bar. She consistently looked over at me but completely disregarded that she had been tending to me and didn't even ask another server to take for her. Finally, I begged a bus boy to find a server to get me my bill which took another 30 minutes.

What is Joel talking about? It's not the Polynesian Cultural Center

Company: Polynesian Cultural Center
Address : 55-370 Kamehameha Hwy, Laie, HI 96762, United States


Joel From Laie is interesting. Let's look at what he says: He "just came back from Hawaii", but his profile shows that he lives in Laie, which is in Hawaii, which is where the Polynesian Cultural Center is. He doesn't know what he's talking about. He talks about buying tickets to the Imax theater online. Hello, the Imax theater isn't a ticket that needs to be purchased. It's in every ticket with admission. Hello. The website doesn't send out tickets. It just sends a confirmation with the DATE and PACKAGE. Obviously he doesn't know what he's talking about. The site issued him wrong tickets? Sounds like he didn't even buy tickets. He had to pay more for the next show. What does that mean? We don't charge for the Imax. He says he had to "work with signals" to get food. The Alii Luau is a buffet. What kind of signals did he use to have the table staff serve him if he was supposed to get up and get his own food? He said they were charged more for "dishes". We collect no money in the Alii luau for dishes. Once you purchase a ticket, the food is a BUFFET. Obviously this brother doesn't speak english well, which is his first problem. His second problem is that he's lying. His third problem is that if its the PCC website, it's he who can't read. From what I understand, tons of customers buy tickets online at and don't have complaints like his. Did he report it? I think he's just a liar.

Membership - by accident!

Company: Vista Print
Address : 95 Hayden Avenue, Lexington, MA 2421, United States


in february i ordered business cards from vistaprint.I was unaware that in doing so i had automatically signed to a membership of both vistaprint rewards and premier club. In april two debits of 9.95 pounds sterling were taken from my credit card account. i queried this with the credit card company but it is perfectly legal. the credit card company cannot cancel it for you, and cancelling itself is very difficult if you don't have your membership id. as i didn't know i was a member, naturally i didn't know my id. Even though i cancelled the card, my credit company advised me that vistaprint could still debit my account and they would be obliged to honour this unless i cancelled with vistaprint direct.I asked what would happen if i cancelled my credit card account altogether, and apparently i would be breaking the law! Anyone in the UK experiencing similar difficulties may get satisfaction from phoning 0800 028 8251 rather than the number printed on the credit card statement, which is useless. I have yet to discover whether i have succeeded in cancelling my account, but i hope so.

Nordstrom rack is extremely messy...

Company: Nordstrom Rack
Address : Towsontown Center MA, Towson, MD 21204, United States


Nordstrom rack is extremely messy, real long lines, and too many people. They do not keep stuff right on their racks but lying all around the store. Clothes are strewn about and don't ask me about the shoes. When I go there I couldn't understand were to start from! However, I get their upcoming sales as I am their regular customer. But every time I go their some mess has to happen, so I avoid going there on weekdays. Place is noisy due overcrowd and long line may frustrate you. Rest, if you will ignore some employees, certain brands and mess other things are ok. Depends on you how you tackle the situation in Nordstrom!

Hotel Marlowe employees do not welcome there guest!

Company: Hotel Marlowe
Address : 25 Edwin H Land Blvd, Cambridge, MA 2141, United States


They are irresponsive to their guests. I know they claim that they provide the quickest service to their guest but guess what..When stayed there; weather was cold so I asked an employee to get a heater fixed in our room. Well, temperature never went above 67 d. Food price is way high to be affordable. There was no coffee pot in our room; a sign says that it will be placed on request. So we requested for a coffee twice with no action taken. There was nothing that you would expect in a four star hotel. I think the cheap places I stayed like Red Roof and Motel 6 were more responsive. They have very bad service and expensive food, not worth your money. I will better make reservation in another hotel next time.

Sloppy or soggy or stale

Company: Dinette
Address : 1514 E Olive Way, Seattle, WA 98122, United States


This restaurant has no good conditions for their customers. Their service not good, neither food. They do not have good parking place and therefore always have to face parking problem when I visit this restaurant. Food is rather tasteless, sometimes sloppy or soggy or stale when you visit after weekends or early morning when restaurant opens. Forgive me but it the fact about this restaurant. I have no choice then to go here as it is the only cheap place to dine especially when you have visit daily for your lunch times.

They have 70 complaints at State Attorney General's office

Company: Southwest Plumbing Service
Address : 2730 Worth Ave, Englewood, FL 34224, United States


Here is the real story of South West Plumbing. The guy Duke D. has posted a review for SW plumbing and within 15 minutes another unfavorable review for Evan Conklin Plumbing, each other a couple months ago at 1.00 am. Both the reviews are written by one guy and it is obvious he must be the south west or its employee working there. As far as I know South West has the bad reputation in Seattle and the review by Duke D. is an obvious a deliberate false and outright lie. Evan Conklin is among the highest rated plumbers in Seattle. I bet you, you will get to see negative reports against SW in most the sites; they have the most notorious customer service and dissatisfaction. I can tell you the stories regarding their incompetence, fraud, rip offs and more. If I will have to give rating I will give them 'zero'. My research states that they have 70 complaints at State Attorney General's office and still this company is running. It must close down. You need to do little homework before calling them for their service- trust me it will help you a lot.

This place goes with the fashion presently in trend to suit you and time. They have nice collection of jackets and other fancy outfit you will fall in love with. But I am being scammed by this people long back so with my friends when they are shopping and only if I reallt trust the them I buy some apparel. Well, I had bought a upholstery like jacket which was the perfect. I even wore this jacket and in the party one of my friend told me that the jacket had got little hole on the lower sleeve. I took it back to shop and got it exchanged but let me tell you the next tee I got from them was patchy and they did allow me to inspect it before they packed it for me. I am now shopping for my trendy clothes from other store well known for fashion.

I purchased a small statue of roman women beautifully carved in marble with very minutes and great hand carving done and painter in beautiful bright lemony and light blue color. I inspected the statue and then ask him to pack it; it was a gift for my beloved friend. He took it inside and got it packed. My friend took me that though the statue was wonderfully made it was broken at the lady's long gown. I return back to the store for exchange. He told me that I am lying and I broke the statue and I want it exchange because my friend didn't like it. So rude these people are! I couldn't believe the store person could say like that. Well, he didn't give me another piece and nor I went back to this store again!

Les Cadeaux has lot of good items for your pantry kitchen bath and lot more. The items you will not get in other store definitely you will get in Les Cadeaux Gourmet and so they are establishing monopoly in the market. It needs to be stopped by someone. I purchased Vosges Truffle box from them. First they charged me a lot on my credit card. The product price which they gave on site was fake, and to top, shipping charges were also added to it. Well, they never send product on time so no point in purchasing anything from them especially when it if for a gift purpose; I now this because I'd ordered twice from them before truffle. I will only advice, 'Keep a hand's distance!'

We both were taking a look of lamps displayed when I got a sudden push from behind not my cousin but I guess he an employee as after sometime I saw him chatting the other staff persons. Well, it was not mistake but they blamed me for the damage and didn't allow us to leave the place until I pay from the damage. I had to pay finally. But I would like to sue them for illegal charge to a teenager. I will definitely not go again there though they have good selection.

URL: wildsalmonseafood.com

I bought smoked salmon from Wild Salmon Seafood Market few weeks ago. I was actually been scammed by this people. I paid $19.99 for each Smoked Salmon as guests were expected in the evening. Of course it was morning time when I bought it. Well, the smokes Salmon was perished and smelled very bad. It was neatly packed and so I didn't come to know regarding this. Well, going back to the market and returning the fish is the height of foolishness. He will not take the perished fish back in any condition and give me fresh one. That's why I like the most accepted style of purchasing stuff in India. It is a country with great values!

The food is horrible and the drinks are way overpriced

Company: Giggles Comedy Nite Club
Address : 5220 Roosevelt Way NE, Seattle, WA 98105, United States


Actually I loved this place 7 years ago. The first time I went I saw Carlos Mencia and laughed all night long. Unfortunately, after this show, the owner of Giggles was so hard to work with that Carlos's manager refused to ever book here again. I went back here 3 times a year ago and swore to never come back. The owner got on stage and was rude to the whole audience. I went back a couple of months ago and have come to conclusion that this place has gone down hill. I will never go back again. All four times in the past year or so there was only one waitress working each night and the comedians were HORRIBLE!!!!! The charge was $20.00 per person and we never laughed once. All four times the same comedians showed up for the beginning acts. My boyfriend and I could repeat their acts verbatim. My boyfriend and I left after an hour and were disgusted. The food is horrible and the drinks are way overpriced.

I am too frustrated customer of Crate & Barrell! I was purchasing some good stuff for my kitchen ware; for long time I was just going round to find to some suitable stuff for my kitchen. An idiot ass, from this store came up to me and rudely ask me what I was searching for. I told him about my requirement and he simply said that they don't have that thing in their stock. Ok, ok I said and moved for another search. Well, this time the same guy here again and said the wine glasses are not in stock and asked me to move out of the store. They don't care or bother about their potential customer. The guy, thought I was there to just waste time of the employee and have no money to buy, of course he said so when I was moving out after little purchase! I will not recommend this store to anyone I know. Seriously!

Frauds...

Company: AOL
Address : 22000 AOL Way, Dulles, VA 20166, United States

URL: www.aol.com

I had downloaded a free version of AOL internet. It stated if I did not want to continue my membership to contact AOL before my free trial was up. (Note I had given AOL banking account # from an account that was made just incase AOL tried to refuse my choice to cancel) I contacted an AOL rep through the proper channels too cancel my membership. The operator refused to accept the words "I do not want your services" They said they would extend my services for 3 more months for free. I said I didn't want them. I was then passed to what was supposed to be a supervisor. No one answered the phone. I waited a short while and called again I was given the same run around and routed to a phone that was not answered. When I finally called several times and asked to cancel they offered me more months I refused and wanted to cancel. Again I was given a do not take no response and was routed to the same no answer line. That was over 7 months ago. I had gone to my bank and put a block on any attempt from AOL to withdraw from my account. I just received 11/6/06 a statement from my bank that I was overdrawn from my account and there was a charge of $23.90 from AOL and $25. For overdraw fee. I was furious I called AOL and they said they didn't even have my bank account number. But they some how had gotten my credit card number. Now I am even more upset. I asked the rep to speak to a supervisor. (BIG MISTAKE) I was routed to the infamous never answer phone. If there is anyone taking action with a law suit please contact me. I will be glad to give any and all information stating how they committed bank fraud and stole money from my account. I now have to cancel my credit card and change bank accounts at my cost just to prevent AOL from steeling from me.

The Home Depot is attempting to rip Me Off by charging for an unsatisfactory service

Company: Home Depot
Address : 795 Fairview Rd, Asheville, NC 28803, United States


The Home Depot is attempting to rip Me Off by charging for an unsatisfactory service where they will/have done nothing but bill me. They wanted a $50 deposit to send a subcontractor to measure my floor area for carpet and tile. The measurements were incorrect and unacceptable. The Home Depot was instructed by FAX, letter and telephone not to pay their subcontractor and to provide someone else. They have proceeded to harass me with repeated telephone calls while ignoring my written dispute of the charges. Telephone calls from The Home Depot are a recording saying wait for the next available agent - after 5 minutes I hang up. They are adding $25 per month late charges to an initial $50 credit card deposit plus $1.50 per month finance charges. The total has grown to $106.03 in just 2 months. They should be in the finance business specializing in how to Rip Off customers by creating a situation where they harass and try to intimidate their customers into paying for a service The Home Depot did not provide. The Home Depot has also charged sales tax on a labor only job which I think is illegal. They run a junk store and apparently have no regard for the rights of their customers. Stay away from them if you use their credit card. In fact I would advise you to stay out of their stores altogether.

Cellularone has poor network

Company: Cellular One
Address : NA, NA, United States

URL: www.cellularone.com

Six months ago I signed a contract with Cellular One. When I get home use the phone to call one of my friends and I could barley hear them but I just let it go. It started getting worse. I couldn't even complete one phone call. I was lucky if I could even dial the number and then it would only last about thirty seconds. Finally I get mad and go up to Cellular One 5 months later. They say sorry and give me a new phone for free. I go home make a phone call and it works a little. I decide to buy a ring tone for $2.50. About a week later it was worse than before. I am getting very mad. I go to get the mail and my bill is there. Then I saw they charged TEN DOLLARS for my ring tone! I go back up to Cellular One again and they file a trouble ticket. They told me to come back in a week. I go back and see they completely ignored the trouble ticket. So the say sorry again and give me another phone. Now my ten dollar ring tone is gone. I go home and go to my top floor and make a call. 5 minutes into the call it is dropped. Again it starts. I go back up to Cellular One and they say that my house is the one that is screwing with my phone. So they give me this generic antenna that is about 5 in. tall and the wire is about 6 feet long. They want me to use this every time I make a call. Later my dad comes over (he has Cingular) and we go down in the basement. I check my phone and I am surprised to see I have one bar (THAT'S A BIG IMPROVMENT). My dad checks his phone and he has five. So I'm guessing it's not my house. I don't have enough money to pay those cancellation fees. What can I do???

DO NO SIGN A CONTRACT THEY WILL STILL LIE AND CHEAT EVERY PENNY THEY CAN. Every person that I talk to has a different story and nothing ever matches. Every time ask to talk to a manager I am hung up on or put on hold and never responded to. Please help put large corporations who think they can do what they want with our money out of business.

Bellsouth can go to hell...

Company: Bellsouth Phone Company
Address : P.O. Box 105503, Atlanta, 30348, United States


BUYER BEWARE I ordered their high speed DSL service months ago and it still is not working. My net zero dial up was much faster and reliable. I have dealt with a series of the dumbest BellSouth techs, some who came to my home. These cretins blamed the problems on everything including a phone that is not even plugged into the wall jack. They have wasted countless days of my time when any moron knows the problems are caused by BellSouth lousy servers or an overloaded grid. This weekend I was trying to get caught up with my email that BellSouth has screwed up. I was responding to a letter and after 2 hours I got a message that my email timed out while I was typing. I signed back into my account and the letter was gone. Two hours worth of work down the drain. When I called their tech dept there was a recording that said Bellsouth was having "email issues." They can't even handle emails they are so stupid. When I initially called the tech about setting up my email months ago he told me they don't do that and I have to call Microsoft. I told him since it comes with my Bellsouth account and I pay Bellsouth, not Microsoft, Bellsouth is responsible. I had to talk to a supervisor. I find one Bellsouth idiot particularly annoying and stupid and I informed their Coe's office that if the cretin ever calls me again I was reporting him to the police for harassment. The guy is a psycho because even when I would hang up on him he would call me right back and continue the conversation. This guy is so stupid that he probably thought Bellsouth disconnected us even though I called him an idiot and told him never to call me again and SLAMMED THE PHONE DOWN. The cretin works in the Coe's office so that should tell you something about the mentality of the coli am having time/Warner install a cable connection for me and Bellsouth can go to hell. I am even dumping their phone service and will try Vonage. SAVE YOURSELF TIME, MONEY AND AGGRIVATION BY AVOIDING BELLSOUTH AT ALL COST. BELLSOUTH WOULD HAVE BEEN OUT OF BUSINESS IN A WEEK IF THE STUPID NC PUC DID NOT GIVE THEM A MONOPOLY

THEY DON'T CARE!

Company: Nextel
Address : 2001 Edmund Halley Drive, Reston, VA 20191, United States


This letter is intended to share the awful time I have had with Nextel as well as to inform some of you why you have experienced the same problems. Nextel has so many problems with their system that I am amazed that it even works at all. Let me tell you why. Nextel has a very small portion of the cell phone bandwidth, but they have a large portion of the customers. This means they don't have enough channels to handle all of the call volume. To try and band-aid this problem what they do is they keep turning down the power on their sites and add more and more sites that cover small areas. This in theory allows them to re-use channels at more and more sites in an attempt to handle the call volume. It doesn't work well at all. What ends up happening is your phone is trying to decide what cell site to pick up when it is receiving signals from 10 different sites. This causes your phone to go from site to site etc. the result is your antenna signal bouncing from full to some to none etc. I have a Nextel site less than 1 mile from my house and my phone "bounces" all over the map and more often than not say no service. They have the worst service in the industry. I am sure that you just like me are so sick and tired of seeing the "user not available" or "please try again" messages on your phone you just want to throw it out the window. To make matters even worse if you are under a service contract and try to complain THEY DON'T CARE! They tell you someone will call you back well don't hold your breath! Or the other famous one "I'm sorry a supervisor isn't available and no I can't give you a number for one" THEY HAVE THE WORST CUSTOMER SERVICE IN THE HISTORY OF BUSINESS! I wish all of the tens of thousands of people who got sucked into a contract with Nextel could get together and form a giant class action suit to get us out of our service contracts and get our money back!

Pay charges on our free minutes.

Company: AOL
Address : 22000 AOL Way, Dulles, VA 20166, United States

URL: http://www.aol.com/

I guess the lesson we all need to learn is "Get it in writing!" There are just so few businesses and so few people out there who are honorable and can be taken at their word. Add AOL Long Distance to the list of dishonorable. Recently a representative from this company called my home and offered us 500 free minutes when we signed up. Without having the agreement put down on paper and mailed to us, we foolishly accepted the offer. When our bill arrived, we found we had not received any free minutes. We contacted another represented who denied that any such offer had ever been made. We cancelled the service and several weeks later were surprised to see that money had been automatically withdrawn from our account to pay charges on our "free" minutes. When we contacted yet another representative, we were told that the 500 free minute deals did exist but only after they were earned by so many paid minutes. Long story-short: An agreement was made by one rep, denied by another, and the company refuses to make good on promises made by its people. It's only $30, it won't kill us but AOL Long Distance treated us like we were trying to rip them off. I hope the $30 goes a long way to helping them out. We will recoup our money by canceling our AOL internet service and advising anyone who will listen on what to expect from this dishonorable company.

Disconnect Fee.

Company: Comcast Corp
Address : 1500 Market Street, Philadelphia, PA 19102, United States


Comcast is charging much more for their services than their competitors. I don't understand how services including telephone
can be turned off three days after I made a payment in cash. I paid on 1/12/07 then services were shut off on 1/16/07!! Customer Service said there wasn't anything they could do about my telephone and it would be turned on in 24 to 48 hours and they were sorry for my inconvenience!! This isn't the first time this happened to me, but the third. Each time I was charged a disconnect fee & reconnect fee, BUT I MADE THE PAYMENT then was without service. I've wasted more than 8 hrs on the phone with Comcast Customer Service, and although they are polite, I can't seem to get anyone who knows how to serve the customer. By the way, did you know that every time Comcast sends out a "reminder notice" they charge 1.99 as a "Soft Disconnect Fee??" I'm a singe mom of two and NEVER missed a monthly payment! When you pay a month in advance and pay your bill, how can they turn services off legally? Does anyone else have this problem????

Stratford Career Institute
1010 Vermont Ave NW, Ste 805
Washington, DC 20005

Sent Via Certified Mail
Article #: XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

To whom it may concern:
Please cancel my contract for the Teacher's Aide program and refund my deposit of $XX paid via XXXXXX check # XXXX dated April 11, 2007. I am well within the 14-day cancellation period.

Sincerely,I received the following notification from the post office.


Status: Delivered

Your item was delivered at 1:33 PM on April 17, 2007 in WASHINGTON, DC 20005.

I received a letter dated April 30th from Jason Hammond, Student Advisor, re: my options instead of cancellation. I do not think the above letter left any uncertainty re: my intent to cancel.

I sent an email to the advisor (as to have documented proof) which included the tracking information of the initial certified letter stating the following:

I wish only to cancel the course. I do not wish to transfer or place the program on hold. Your course materials were refused and returned to sender directly from the post office at which they were received on the day they were received.

Please cancel the contract and refund my deposit as requested.


On May 9th, I received a bill re: my failure to cancel w/in 14 days and a balance I owe them of $179! I have of course filed complaints with the DC Attorney General and DC BBB against them in addition to reviewing my experience here and emailing them all of my documentation that disputes their claims. The email address that they gave me however is no longer valid!

I mailed a copy of the email to them instead on May 18, 2007.

I found out too late that they have a reputation for defrauding those who wish to cancel. Luckily I sent my cancellation request via certified mail. As evidenced by post office records and the attached letter, it was sent, as per the policy they included with their scam, to the correct address and still received well within 14 days. The cancellation address, by the way, is only included on the backside of the initial agreement – the one you have to mail off to them - and no where else either on their website or by any other easily obtainable means – obviously more of their scam. They choose to ignore my request for cancellation. Their pathetic attempts to try to keep my business and stall out the 14 days, have been duly noted.

As for the lessons, the date the 1st and only one arrived at the post office, I refused it and wrote "refused, return to sender" immediately handing it back to the clerk. Again, another scam about them that I have read about. The one thing I didn't do that I wish I had of, was write down the tracking number on the refused Stratford materials.


It is apparent that their business is so poorly run that they feel the need to defraud people in order to stay afloat. Rest assured that I will do everything in my power to make it even more difficult for them.

Also please find attached a list of links detailing the same type of scam being perpetrated by them. I only wonder how many times they've successfully pulled this scam on people too ashamed or too unaware to know the proper recourse.

Bad to deal...

Company: Borders Books Music Movies & Cafe
Address : 10 Columbus Cir, New York, 10019, United States


The store is inside the glamorous Time Warner Center, and it is not bad to deal with. I have been on the borders e-newsletter
list so I keep getting coupons for 10-30% off a book; and it worked well for so many months that I am habitual to this store.
Few weeks back I have received likewise a coupon from them and so I went to shop for some nice new novels. Well, when I reached the counter for paying for that book I handed him the coupon I had. The guy at the counter simply said this coupon is not valid and gave a bill for full amount. I showed him the coupon he said that the coupon was valid till 25 February and they cant accept it when it was clearly written on the coupon till 25 March. He sticks to his words, so I kept the book on.

Envisioned a complaint against this store in court of law

Company: Buffalo Exchange
Address : 1555 Haight St, San Francisco, CA 94114, United States


Before our holy week start I had been to Buffalo Exchange for some cloth shopping for mass. Well, the place was crowded that I couldn't see anything. I am also short so there was no room for me. I told my problem to some ladies and got some place to pick some pairs of tops. After I collected my tops, was going ahead for some more variety just to have look and then I had decided to pay and leave the store. Well, the lady near the counter shouted at me and called me Thief! I am not thief, and working in a reputed company as a manager. There is no need to steal thing from store for me. Well, I didn't argue much paid and I envisioned a complaint against this store in court of law. So, Buffalo be aware of the action that is going to be taken against you or just correct your mistake and teach your employees about the consumer respect or you will be hearing a lot from authority.

Company: Ezell's Fried Chicken
Address : 501 23rd Ave, Seattle, WA 98122, United States


Ezell's Fried chicken is not of my type. I ordered drinks and friend chicken and mash potatoes, here how they were. I am not a dieting person so I don't believe in putting restriction on my food. Well, when I am saying this, one has to listen! The chicken was greasy I never saw like this one and mash potatoes were not creamy enough; its gravy doesn't meet my tongue. Coleslaw ok if some salt is been removed from my dish. Well, they do have fruit sodas and they are just cool! I am picky about fried chicken and so I would like to cook it myself.

They are quit expensive.

Company: A Salt & Battery Llc
Address : 112 Greenwich Ave, New York, 10011, United States


This restaurant has nice fried food selection and British beer which is always a plus! They are quit expensive compared to
other but beer is nice. Well, the fried chips are too greasy and I will advice you to avoid it, just because I had some problem sometime before. I was aware of their fried chips that they are oily, so I had asked them to remove the excess oil with tissue paper; but this fellow offered me more greasy chips in spite of my telling. They make these British chips by deep frying potatoes in the same oil again and again so they are not advisable. I have cholesterol problem, that's why I gave him instruction before serving me. Two days later I had to hospitalize for treatment. Of course it was my mistake of eating such greasy stuff but when I told him twice it is duty to follow the guest's request. Well, overall I will not recommend this restaurant to my friends and any person I know.

I had heard a lot of good things and reviews of Jamba Juice that I couldn't stop myself when I was passing by the Jamba Juice
Corporation. Well, I got addicted to smoothies. But I would I like to tell you that they are not good health; they contain lot f potassium which may be the cause of even cancer.

I never had imagined that a smoothie from such a reputed company has harmful substance which may cause cancer, arthritis, heart disease and even kidney failure!

I am already now more like disable at the age of 28 and don't want you people to suffer from such diseases...

A year back in June we shifted from New York. Carrying all the luggage with other things is headache, a single father can not do that so I decided to take help of New York Movers. Well, I realize it later that it was my wrong decision. The employees of NYM were very rash and they are not aware of how to carry stuff and load in a truck. half of the things were damaged and broke while they were loading luggage and others when they were unloading it. They ddi all mess and really messed up with my personal things. I would like to warn you do not choose NYM or you will be repenting for rest of the life! I have lost the best of the best articles while shifting to other place.

I will prefer to eat somewhere else or even I will make some nice recipes at home so even my family will enjoy home made but restaurant food.

Company: Marble Slab Creamery
Address : 3420 SW Archer Rd, Gainesville, FL 32608, United States


I would love to go Cold stone creamery rather then Marble Slab Creamery, it is spacious and also have great ice creams. I am not sure if other consumers too had this issue with the Marble Slab Creamery employees or not, they are rude and also do not get the ice cream on time. I visited there store twice and both the time I had the same issue. I ordered for Reeses Pieces and strawberry yoghurt ice cream and also told them to get it fast because I was getting late for a movie. Ok, may be because I told him fast he purposely handed me my order late so next time I went there I just gave my order and said nothing else. Well, he got my order after half an hour and also it was all melted, I was not impressed with the kind of service they give and ice creams too. The caramel syrup was very thin and had no taste at all. I will prefer the Cold Stone Creamery, it best suits me and my needs too! I will advise you do not go Marble Slab Creamery, there do not have quality creams!

Star Luck Casino Scam "But Didn't get me thanks to scamclub"

Company: April
Address : 5164 Anton dr #306, Fitchburg, Wi 53719, United States

URL: Star Luck Casino

May 11th 2007 Star Luck Casino sent me a letter saying that they wanted to inform me that of the Starluck Casino sweepstakes held on the 15th of February 2007. Due to the mix up of some names and numbers, the results were later released on the 28th of February 2007. My name attached to Ticked Number 435-3255-241 drew the lucky numbers of 17-86-60-24-96 which consequently won in the 2nd category. They indicated that I was approved for a lump sum payout of USD $92,000 U.S. In cash credited to your ticket number 435-3255-241. They said it was a total cash prize draw of $460,000.00 shared amoungest 5 winners. They sent a $4867.73 dollar check that they wanted me to put in my account and withdraw the money and send it Western Union. They give you a number to call 1(647)832-2073 I spoke to a woman named Pamuela. She tried to convience me to take the money out of my account and send it. I told her she was crazy, I would deposit the check but any bank takes 15-30 days for a check to clear. I told her I would wait for it to clear. It never cleared, thank god I never send it Western Union. I went with my feeling that this was a scam and it was. A lot of people did send the money Western Union though and are out of that money. But the more and more people that speak out these individuals will be busted and something will be done. Watch out for a supposed Gregory Williams Phd. Director of Promotions, he's a complete SCAM. These people are all terrible, and the people who work for these scammers should go down also for trying to make it sound so good. I even asked Pamuela several times if this was a scam and every time she indicated NO. Don't believe these people. Thank god I didn't take the money out of my account and I went with my feeling. Don't get scammed. Star Luck Casino SUCKS, LIARS!!!!!!!!!!!!! They have no connections with Lotto, Publishers Clearing House, Readers Digest, Online Sweepstakes and Casinos, its all lies.

Tucanos Brazilian Grill has great BBQ meat. We enjoyed our meal in January. It was quite affordable and our buffet had huge variety of dishes and desserts and of course grill pineapple is among bests! Well. But yesterday we had dinner at Tucanos and had to wait for one hour just to get place, I don't know if there was anything special for the day but we got nothing then few selected BBQ and few other stuff which failed to impress us and to top it the price were high. I am not greedy person that I will eat everything and empty vessel but I like to try and taste dishes, but they did not give us much to eat in all we had two BBQ's just a small quantity and a dessert. Few dishes I asked for were finished and he will not make it for me because it was 10 past in the night. Good buddy. I am not looking for next trip to Tucanos but I surely want to try out Braza Grill in Salt City Lake next time.

I feel pity on Rainbow glass, our local décor store is better!

Company: Rainbow Glass
Address : 4556 Auburn Blvd, Sacramento, CA 95841, United States

URL: www.rainbowglass.org;www.glassglow.com

Rainbow glasses are suppose to be the best glass in our town. Of course it has to be because they have and also teach their unique technique of making glasses and books and much more things to real art lovers. I am grateful for that:)!Months ago, I was planning to do a partition of my big grand bedroom and make small private study room for my photographic study; and so I purchased a Dicro glass full sheet for $155. They promised me to deliver it till 18 of January and they did. The glass had crack in the corner, must be 5" or 7". Not me but any buyer will think before accepting such delivery it is not going to last long, I thought and called them next day. My husband talked to the rep, he was helpful until he was not aware of replacement and as he got replacement alarm he gave some stupid accuse and hung up the phone. His repeated calls only added bill. Again two days later I called and some superior staff person talked to me. He stuck to his point that glass was not broken and I was lying while I was trying to explain him that it may got break on the way. Later several minutes of conversation result into the ¼ replacement of glass. So sick! I feel pity on Rainbow glass. Our local décor store is better!

I had ordered for an arrangement of wild orchids for my friend who was admitted in the hospital because she met with an accident and was recovering but very slowly and she loves wild orchids. I paid for the flowers and asked them to deliver it there that evening and send it to the hospital. I did not worry about the flowers not being fresh. I thought that they would send fresh flowers and not the ones that were displayed.They delivered the flowers on time but the flowers were dead and had turned black in just two hours. When I called them and asked them why this happened they said they had no idea why it happened. i asked for the manager and he said that I must have put something in the water that caused the problem. I told them that I put what solution they had given. I will never purchase from them again. Their shop looks very nice from the out and inside but their flowers are terrible. Don't purchase from here. Even if you do make sure they use fresh flowers for your order.

I went to them and told them to give me another one. They said that they wouldn't do that but would give me a replacement part.I took the part which did not work either. They said they cannot help me anymore. I was very angry and asked them for a full refund they said that they would reimburse the charges but I haven't got a single dime from them yet.

Caution...

Company: Atlanta Tire and Auto Service
Address : 1055 Brady Ave NW, Atlanta, GA 30318, United States


I have read many reviews on Atlanta Tire and Auto service. There were many bad ones and very, very few good ones that were mostly dated. I wish I had taken the caution from the other reviews that I read. I too was a customer at Atlanta for many, many years and before I went there for the last time I had no idea about the new management and may be owners too. I surely am now! They are very friendly and stuff but being friendly is no the only important thing at a service center we want good service too now, don't we? They are inexperienced. So if you are going there based on the good experiences you had earlier you should know that it is not gonna be the same any more. They are trying to be the best but they are no where near good. After I picked up my car form them it broke down after five minutes of driving. When I spoke to the manager about it. he said that he was sorry and would offer me an oil change. Well if you would try them out please go ahead but only for an oil change if you go to them for anything other than that believe you me, you are gonna regret it. They are way below our expectations and have surely gone downhill.

An artist from there organization steal my work and gave his name

Company: T P Gallery
Address : 252 S Main St, Salt Lake City, UT 84101, United States


The draw back of TP Gallery is they consider only native Americans and they do not give chance to people from other race. This is a kind of prejudice because this only shows how discriminating these people are! I had gone there to apply and get a chance to my art to the world but I was rejected only because I am not a Native American! I think because they are all the same and they have no significant variety in there art. I have examined this personally. They are a kind of nuts, I can say if they are not ready to consider people like us. I had mailed them some of my art work and guess.. An artist from there organization steal work and gave his name. Is this the justice they give to an inborn artist!? If they do they are the biggest cons on the earth!

food stuff from store just next door. I came within half an hour, collect my chocolate box and left for home. Well, when I reach home, I open box more like greedy person and disappointed to see.:( The chocolate that once covered the red deep strawberry was melted and liquid chocolate will never give any taste to strawberry. I called the store and told them, they plainly said that cant take it back as once stuff sold they are not responsible for damage!! What damage? I know when I return to store to collect my chocolate, the guy pick my box from the machine. Obviously, it was heat and so chocolate got melted. I told him the fact but he didn't listen to me. What a pathetic staff they have! I will advice there owner to change the staff so we can get better service.

I do not like this restaurant much. Of course as the name implies, they have lovely cheesecakes and they are awesome! Well, I hate its food. They are no good to even take a bite. Unfortunately I had attended this restaurant three time with my friends for promotion treats. I have observed that they are not bothered about the customer, how dissatisfied the may be! I tried to suggest the manager to improve food but he calmly shook his head and began with his work again. Their food is never good. Their pasts are terrible in taste and they are never hot and tempting to eat, even pastas from Olive Garden have better taste and quality. Their pork tenderloin is perfect dry and bland. I leave dissatisfied with everything!

They have great attitude, never bothered of me coming to the restaurant. I have even stopped eating rice pudding my mother makes and that why she calls me crazy. Am I seems to be crazy! What you would have done if it happens with you?

They stole my money!

Company: Chikalicious Dessert Bar
Address : 203 E 10th St, New York, NY 10003, United States


Chiklicious is a kind of dessert, I am mad for chikalicious. If you go to chiklicious you can actually see chefs making chiks in front of your eyes and it is very interesting. Well, they re little expensive. As menu changes every three days, you can't go back for having the menu you have missed. Hmm. Well, I don't have any complaint regarding food or even chefs but the manager who stole my money. Four months back I was on date and so I decided to pay first before my gal arrives and have wine and dessert and leave for a movie. After we finished our desserts and wine, manager asked me for bill charges. Well, I told him that I have paid him before we had desserts and he was didn't listen to me. He told me that they don't accept such payments and forced me to pay for our desserts. As he wont allow me to leave bar without paying I paid him the full amount again and made the loss of $45. I will not play such tricks in future ever but also not go to this bar again.

I was never in my life got so much

Company: Polynesian Cultural Center
Address : 55-370 Kamehameha Hwy, Laie, HI 96762, United States


Hey guys and gals! I had been to Hawaii recently with my few friends and my wife. Our trip is remarkable; we enjoyed a lot but the theater and one restaurant really disappointed us. We had been to Polynesian Culture center and everything was done through their website only. We have booked tickets for a show in Imax from polynesia.com they have send us the tickets; as we had no idea about eh show and show timing we reach our destiny with tickets and guess who has become the joker in Imax.we. Their site issued us wrong tickets and we had spent money again for next show. I was never in my life got so much embarrassed. Ok, and then come the second disappointing scene in Alii Luau Feast, here people serving hardly understood English and so I worked with signals. Well, they got some dishes we didn't ask and charged for them even when we didn't even
eat from their plate and returned. I will not recommend this restaurant nor this website which play a role of ugly pig to loot people! Of course I will blame this site only because we planned everything according to website details.

Tender fried yellow fish was giving out very bad smell..!

Company: New Green Bo Restaurant
Address : 66 Bayard St, New York, NY 10013, United States


New Green Bo Restaurant is supposed to be the best in our area. But recently they have lost its charm and food is like leftover of last week. Friday, at late evening we went there to have some drink and then dinner outside only. We choose New Green of course because it's favorite! So. we ordered for crab shau lon bau followed by chow fun with shredded pork and tangy rice noodle with preserved cabbage. The crab shau lon bau hardly had any juicy in it but anyhow we forced ourselves to finish it. I also had there tender fried yellow fish and it was giving out very bad smell. I am not sure if that was rotten and they fried the rotten and present it to me! Oh god, I will not visit this restaurant again in my rest of the life:(

Poor service!

Company: California Pizza Kitchen
Address : 1493 St. Louis Galleria, Richmond Heights, MO 63117, United States


Well, food what you call star in the heaven! Food is expensive here because they are gourmets but pizzas worth money. They have lovely Chicken Marsala and make you crazy Caramel Fudge Pecan Cheesecake! And they have original BBQ Chicken chopped. I have no trouble with their food or even cook because they make great food with utter perfection; only my problem is their waiter staff. As usual I placed order and waited for 45 minutes when it was afternoon time on Saturday. Restaurant was filled 30% and still they were unable to serve quickly. Strange! Other days I have received my order on time, it happened to me twice and I am really pissed off. if it continues the third time I will take my business elsewhere. California Pizza Kitchen pardon me but I will have to take this step!

Yum..they have excellent fruit tarts and the cheesecakes are like individual piece of heaven. But you have to wait in long long lines before your number is being called out! Though service is quick, I had little trouble the previous day I gone there to get a frusup fruit tart. They never call out my number, I waited for hour and half and when I asked the manager about my number he checked my number and said that the number was called out long back and since there was no response they gave it to other person. Well, I told him I am here and they never called my number, I was waiting in my place where callouts could be heard properly. There was no chance I missed it. Well, manager was the toughest nut on the earth. But soon after that he called my name and gave me my fruit tart,Dinners, watch properly the show and hit your arrow on time or you will be the looser!

Do not go there...

Company: Athenian Diner Restaurant
Address : 864 Washington, Middletown, CT 6457, United States


Athenian Diner's have good portions but there is nothing unusual about there food. Do not go on there large portions and good
looking desserts, they look much better then they taste, you got the idea yeah! The veggies are cooked until they limp, and this place is much popular for there bargain hunters. They have great choice but no one can make that many different types of food and do it well! There decor is nice and bright, there rest rooms are clean. If your girl is not the best cook in the world and if you want to have a lot of food you will love it!

Company: Best Buy
Address : 3377 Berlin Tpke, Newington, CT 6111, United States


Our old air conditioner had become bad so last month we decied to buy a new one. We drive 15 miles to Best Buy from our home. The store has offered $40 off on the air conditioner only because the box was open so we took it home. When we came home the box was more then being opened, and it didn't work when plugged in. So we call the store manager to inform then about the air conditioner, first they told us lier and bang the phone telling me that they have checked it before we took it home. Well, we had to take it back to store as it was no concern for them, and no one touched the air conditioner even when we took it to the store! Best buy has the worst service in the world.

O Oprah! Please don't read this.I want to say something about this restaurant. It has most vulnerable chicken.

They are not aware of cleanliness, I make out form the glass and food is most pathetic as ever I ate in any restaurant, I will advise to check out Carolina's Restaurant just few minutes walking distance. Have Awesome food there, I bet you will like it!

This restaurant is considered to be the one among few restaurants serving Peruvian food. Price of food here is reasonable. We had been there for our anniversary. We have thought of eating good Peruvian food and enjoy at night but my dream shattered when I gallop first bite. The food is bland Americanized crap. Well, we also tried there Ceviche Costarena to be the best among dishes but I found nothing charming me. Food is not remarkable to eat. Ooh not on anniversaries at least! Desserts were nice but I will not prefer Fresca again. Pardon me, for being so rude but it the only burning fact of the anniversary night.

There pizzas are worst!

Company: Giovanni's Pizza
Address : 3839 Mission St, San Francisco, CA 94110, United States


This place is run by a small Greek family have good homey environment here. But I will advice eaters to not go to eat pizzas here. They are just icky pizzas, no taste. I am sure they are making these pizzas with there own created recipes! I ate there pizza thrice on different occasions and three times the taste of same pizza was different; Ridiculous! I am not sure why. I tried to ask owner but he would change the topic, so I stop it there and there. Well, first time it was little cheesier and sauce was less to get enough taste so I left it. Second time I ate when my friend has party over here, it had more tomato taste with lot of cheese and more sauce. This combination made me sick even to put in my mouth. And third occasion was with my girl friend. I told her don't order for Pizzas but she did and unfortunately ordered same pizza! I am so un-lucky regarding pizzas especially in Giovanni's that I go there to eat Greek food and my partner force me to eat PIZZA! My god, never ever take anyone loves pizzas here! Surely they plan to kill you.

Low quality stuff.

Company: Whole Foods
Address : Ravenna Seattle, Seattle, WA 98105, United States


I purchased some canned food from this market and tell you the real thing it dies not meet my requirements. It tasted dreadful and odor was pungent to fell unconscious. I also tried their pre-made foods and hot foods section and it too was disappointing. The mayonnaises were like dipped in oil and the bread I purchased was not good. I forgot to check the bread before packing for me but after I reach home I opened the package and found the green fungus like substance on the hard bread surface. The bread was actually hard and not fresh. I will not return there for pre-made and instant food, they are low quality stuff.

Yeah, it was a great experience for having food here. I enjoy the food and listening at a time is a great combo pack which Jazz At Pearl's offers. I went there many times but never tried to play any instrument though I know to play piano and guitar. Last Saturday my girl friend, I with my and hers family went there for celebrating my birthday which actually on Tuesday but due to hectic working life, we couldn't able to enjoy. As food is nice here, we tore a bill of $845. We had drinks cocktails was our favorite all the time, wine, appetizers, desserts and lot of fun. But the musician disregard to our huge bill made me feel embarrass before big crowd. They are rude and disrespecting people. MY girl and her parents ask me to play piano as they believe I could do it better! Well, I made waiter intermediary to take my massage to the musicians. He said ok and came after few minutes later; he said 'you can go up there'. I went where they playing instruments and requested him if I can sit on, he told me to come after sometime and when i went there again he told me that they are not allowed to give their instruments to customers!

Young College Student FOOLED by FALSE GRANT ADVERTISEMENT!

Company: Easton Consulting Group
Address : 1320 State Route 9, Champlain, New York 12919, United States


I am a third year college student and in late- august I recieved a postcard from a company named Easton Consulting Group assuring me I could be approved for a grant for at least $5,000 to use for education, housing, to start a business ect. So a few weeks later I gave the number (1-800-935-4591) on the post card a call and I spoke with a man named Pete Anderson, he asked for my name (I told him) and he said "yes" my name was on the list to receive a grant for at least 5,000 he then a said there was a one time fee for $349.97 to start the process, I was a bit reluctant, asking why a fee had to be payed and to be honest I didnt have $349.97 to give away, (i.e my reason for needing a grant). However as I think now, being quite manipulitve he told me I can set it up so the money could be withdrawn from my checking account by next week (as if he was doing me a favor) also had me believed if I didn't pay this my grant package would be canceled. So by chance I was able to come up with $349.97 and on October 6th 2006 the money was withdrawn from my account. The man told I would receive some paper work (in two weeks) to fill out that would then be sent to the goverment so they could look over my grant request. I didn't recieve that paper work until mid november I filled it out (being stupid and naive giving all my information) and sent it back express mail to the address that I soon found out later was phony. I called the company back immediately when I hadn't heard anyhing back assuring me when the grant would be posted to my account ( as I was told). I spoke to lady this time and was told on january 30th I would receive it, of course the january 30th came and nothing, so I called back and was told I would receive it febuary 17th, samething nothing and I called back and spoke with this man that told me this crappy lie that the reasoning the process is taking so long is because the government would be awarding me with more money in the amount of $17,000and I would definetly have it by March 8th and if not I would receive my fee back. Hearing this I got excited, naive and stupid thinking thats why its taking so long and I would have my money shortly. On March 6th something told me to give them a call just to see the update on my grant, the phone was busy, I tried all day the phone was busy, so I waited until the 8th of March, (OF COURSE NO MONEY IN MY ACCOUNT), so I called the phone still busy. Its now May 11th and the phone is still busy I decided to take matters into my own hands and google this company (SOMETHING I OBVIOUSLY SHOULD OF DONE FROM THE BEGINNING) and saw and read all the fraud and complaints of this company coming to the realization I am not the only person they scammed. I felt so horrible just knowing that people can be so vindictive and wicked, now some psychos have my information and I am out $349.97 of which I borrowed. I just hope and pray justice will be served and these scam artists will be CAUGHT. I am immediately going to report this to the credit bureau and hope and pray my information isn't being used and consult my bank about this situation and hopefully something can be done about the money that was withdrawn from my account.

Magazine Subscription Paid, Not Received

Company: Mags for Less/Robert Drewson
New York City, New York United States

URL: http://magsforless.com

I initially placed an order with Mags for Less in July 2006. This company states on their website that "We are a New York City company dedicated to providing you with the cheapest magazine subscriptions around! We offer hundreds of magazine titles at incredible discounts through our new online store." However, once you've placed your order, you receive a very legitimate looking confirmation email to verify the order but you never receive the magazine. My order was for a one year's subscription to People magazine for a total of $86.99. My American Express credit card was charged right away but when the subscription never started, I tried to contact Mags for Less through their www.My1Mag.com website on September 17 and again on October 3, for status information. I never received a reply from customer service using their online form through the website. I eventually emailed support@my1mag.com on October 10 and received a reply from Robert Drewson who sounded very helpful at first but I finally realized that this was just a ruse to stall for time until it was too late for me to file a dispute with my credit card company. At first, I continued to receive emails from Mr. Drewson assuring me that I would received my magazine soon but after eight months, I knew that I had been scammed, had lost the money paid for the subscription, and would never received the magazine that was ordered. I made a request for a refund in January 2007, and was promised that it would be processed within 4-5 business days. After checking with my credit card company, nothing had been processed. Sent numerous emails to Mr. Drewson in January, February and March with more requests for subscription and refund information follow up but without response. Finally, after sending an email to questions@magsforless.com , I began receiving emails from Meagen Richards who also made shallow promises of issuing a credit. Ms. Richards even went as far as to say she was sorry for my frustration and wanted to know if I wanted a refund and that she was going to give me a 10% discount on future orders! After requesting a refund from her, the context of her emails were identical to the ones received from Mr. Drewson. I still didn't get a refund and emails have stopped from Mr. Drewson and Ms. Richards. Mags for Less is an Internet scam company dedicated to fraud. I have gotten emails from others who have been scammed and given sites to write or email complaints to and would like to list the information for others who may be in the same situation. This company needs to be put out-of-business as soon as possible!

They are not at all friendly

Company: Statewide Pets
Address : 260 Bull Hill Ln, Orange, CT United States


I have been to this place a lot of times and continue going there but I go there out of compulsion if there was another pet store here I wouldn't be going to Statewide Pets for sure. I hate it but can't help because that is the nearest pet store and I hate traveling.The pets are all cramped together they are not safe there and it not at all hygienic not even for the animals. I really pity those poor creatures. The employees there need to learn how to treat customers. They are not at all friendly and know nothing about good quality customer service. They have been here for a long time and are really close to my residence that is the only reason I go to them or else I hate them.

I was used to getting my hair cut at a particular salon and had never tried any other place to get my hair cut. This time I thought to get it done some where else just for a change I decided to go for a complete spa treatment. Well this was the worst decision I have ever made.These people are so, so expensive. I was really shocked when I heard the prices but I decided to go ahead because I thought the treatment would be worth it. But it wasn't it was not worth quarter of the money I gave. I was very disappointed before leaving I even told the owner that I will never return she just ignored me and looked the other way. I will not go to this rip off spa again.

Can you believe it

Company: Statewide Pets
Address : 260 Bull Hill Ln, Orange, CT United States


I have never seen an animal store more horrible and unsafe for animals than Statewide Pets store. It is located in Orange, Connecticut. It is for sure the worst store I come across. They have not maintained the place well and the poor animals have an unhealthy and unsafe environment to live in.I really pity the little ones the pups have small cages and they sleep on nothing but the cold wires not comfy spot in those cages. The place where the little ones are stinks terribly. The aquariums have fishes that are out dated and are not very healthy like the moment you take them out they are gonna die for sure. It is way out of my understanding that these people are still in business. They need to be stooped and those poor animals need a better environment to live in. what makes this place even worse is that their prices are really high. Can you believe it, high prices for that?

Stay away from Pep Boys. They are a scam they can do nothing right and are very rude to customers. They don't know how to treat customers. I used to go there quite often for services but after I had the terrible experience with them they are history for me!
I had taken my car in for a service. Well they did the exact opposite. They ruined my car. I had to take it out of there and get it done at another reliable service center. I would never go there again even for the smallest reason. I hate Pep Boys. They suck. Trust me they want your money that's it.

I love going for spa treatments. I have been to almost every spa I know of but this one. But just last week I went to this one to but it was an awful experience. I fixed an appointment. But I couldn't make it for the appointment because I had some emergency. I cancelled it and asked them if I could go there the next day the same time. They agreed and told me that it was fixed for the next day.When I went the next day I found out that they had a lot of rush and couldn't get the treatment that day. When I asked why was I denied they said that I was on hold if a customer did not show up I would be in. I was very disappointed because they had assured me that I would be done with but I had to go the next day. The treatment was below average. I will never go there again. I am very upset and will let all my girlfriends know about this so that they think before they go there.

Bombay Bistro is bad. The food is average well some of the dishes taste horrible. Nothing like Indian food! My Indian friends hate the place. And I know why. Because I tasted the food at their place and it was delicious. But the food in Bombay Bistro is the exact opposite of that. The have very less quantity and charge a lot. Their service is terribly slow. I would never want to go again. They are really bad. The managers are really rude. The waiters are ok but sometimes have an attitude problem. I can't believe I got to see all this in one night. It's good I won't return and waste my time and money here again.

Weekends may be too tiring to dine there..!

Company: Bidwell Tavern Cafe
Address : 1260 Main St, Coventry, CT 6238, United States


Bidwell Tavern Café can be tried for the best wings in CT. They have excellent menu and great 20 flavors but you can also try their one of the many cold brews which is special. The weekends are noisy, the previous weekend when I had been to Bidwell Tavern Café it was far noisy & crowded and also we didn't receive the service properly. We had to wait for 45 minutes just to have seat and when got settled we didn't even have water. Waiters were hardly seen moving around so we can place order, so my girl friend gave the order at once. Well, the server couldn't be seen for next one hour. We had been to Bidwell Tavern Café many times but never had such problem before but this weekend was little over then usual. I was fading up to sit there for an hour just to look for the server who took down our order, but my girl she kept her patience to sit and wait. Well, food was nice but I advice you not to go their on weekends as it may be too tiring to dine there.

Take care while you shop there..

Company: Sugarbakers Café & Bakery
Address : 4601 S Loop 289 # 1, Lubbock, TX 79424, United States


I have been to this bakery just once and I don't think I will be going there again. Not that their goods are bad. They have good products its just that the ones that are not so good make everything bad. The employees are very rude and are not at all friendly. I never had a problem with any of the employees in other bakeries that I have been to but this one was surely an exception. The prices here are high. I had to think twice before I bought the goods. What if they are not worth that much? Well like I said earlier some of their stuff is but not all? Definitely not all! That make shopping there a little tough because you would never know what to get as all the stuff looks good you cannot discriminate what's worth your money and what's not. Take care while you shop there I will not do it again. Simply because of the unfriendly employees and prices that is much, much more than other bakeries in my neighborhood.

I am really pissed off to even visit Winchester Café.The previous Friday I had went there with my friends. The bar seems more like bikers bar but I think it is more then that. Well, they have lot more things could be enjoyed ut the maintenance is poor so it is not that worthy to go there. The dishes we tasted there were just ok to fill you, the turkey grilled I like the most. The prime rib that we tasted was bland and tasteless to be eaten, even my little brother 4, said that it is not good something is spoiled used it in! So you must have got idea of the Café. right!

I wish I could do something.

Company: Statewide Pets
Address : 260 Bull Hill Ln, Orange, CT United States


Statewide Pets is by far the worst place for the deadliest animal in the world. These people don't know what their purpose is. I pity the animals there. I wish I could do something to help those animals and get that place to shut down. Only if I had financial support I would have done anything to get those poor animals to a safe place.The mice were kept in cages that looked like they weren't cleaned for centuries. I was shocked and was really sorry for the condition they were in. they had many mice in one tiny little cage. They did not even fit there right. I bought two mice out of pity. I found one dead mouse in the ferret's cage. Go there only if you can save those animals life or save yourself from being disgusted at the way those idiots treat those poor animals. They don't take proper care of them.

Company: Sal's Italian Ristorante

Ok, years back Sal's Italian Ristorante was opened but it was closed soon, may be because of poor service or poor location. But I don't think it was poor location! Well, so after it got closed we tried it out in Boynton. The décor was good and healthy, food was raving but there service was really poor; may be because of poor service only it got closed in Palm Beach. The waiter serving us looked not so experienced; he had a habit of forgetting orders but even didn't write it down. I told him to write it down it will be better to remember but he just shrugged his shoulder and went away. Food was really excellent. I don't know the state of the restaurant now because we have not been there for years now.

Company: Kamiya Salon & Spa

I had a terrible experience at Kamiya Salon and Spa that is what I got to know after the experience a low class spa. It is located in Bellevue, Washington and I can bet that it is the most deceitful and disrespectful spa I have ever been to. I had made a call to get an appointment fixed for complete a spa treatment. The lady that was on the other side was out and out rude. She had no idea what she was saying at times and had an accent which was very hard to understand.The day I went to the salon they asked me to wait for sometime because there was an urgent appointment made. I was very disappointed. Later I got to know that it was one of the stylist's friends. That was the urgent appointment. Then later when they started with me I knew from the very start that they are going to hurry with me. I was not at all satisfied and did not feel relaxed after the treatment. And what really bugged me was that after all this they even tried to force me into buying some of their products. I disagreed and am a hundred percent sure that I will never return or recommend this place to anyone unless of course you wanna have a bad day.

Stay away from them.

Company: Sugarbakers Café & Bakery
Address : 4601 S Loop 289 # 1, Lubbock, TX 79424, United States


I hate the staff at Sugarbakers Café and Bakery whish is located in Lubbock, TX. They are super rude. Super duper trouper rude. Their bakery would be the best on my list if not for the stupid selfish ill-mannered staff that is there. If I was the owner I would have never hired jerks like those if I wanted to run my business well. They are the height of rudeness. The cookies that they have the sugar cookies I mean are awful. They make me wanna throw up. Totally, absolutely, a hundred percent horrible! I would never buy them even if they were for just a cent a box. Terrible, really terrible! They have good cookies but the bad service makes you wanna stay away from them. Don't go to Sugarbakers.

It didn't even look good to even dare to eat!

Company: 391st Bomb Group
Address : 3989 Southern Blvd, West Palm Beach, FL 33406, United States


My daughter introduced 391st Bomb Group last year on mother's day. The food was excellent and the service was not the exception for it. Well, few days back we visited this restaurant and the scene had changed since then. The salads were looking tasty but it failed to enter in the salad and most disappoint me the cheesecake. It was not good, it didn't even look good to even dare to eat! So the idea of being good has vanished from my mind and I am not willing to go there again just because other things like décor, other stuff is just good but they have reduced there food quality with quantity. If you ever wish to go 391st Bomb Group choose the late afternoon time it will be better enough though you may not get the full menu!

Their home delivery really piss you off!

Company: Monster Sushi
Address : 158 W 23rd St Frnt, New York, NY 10011, United States


Monster Sushi is very good restaurant if I speak about sushi. Well, restaurant is not a problem but online Monster sushi is bit headache, Oh well not small but very big problem. I ordered Omakase for two people some days before for $55.95 each. Well, my home is not far away from restaurant but these people send it two and half hour late from the timing I had mentioned with my order. I called them twice and no one picked my call. I am going mad at Monster Sushi, there is no use of delicious sushi if they deliver it after your hunger is dumped! I will not recommend this restaurant for home delivery they really piss you off!

They are not bothered about their customers.

Company: Children's Orchard
Address : 188 Clint Dr, Pickerington, OH 43147, United States


I was surfing the net the other day and I was shocked to see good reviews about Children's Orchard a good for nothing kids store. I think the exact opposite of what the reviews read. Actually my friend recommended this place to me because of their excellent prices and the beautiful collection but she also told e that the staff is not the friendliest down there. I did not bother so much about what she said. But when I went there I realized that the staff was terrible. It's not that they are not the friendliest they are not friendly at all. When I was purchasing clothes for my kids there was only one employee in there and he was inside in the employee's room all the time. He did not greet me did not ask if I needed any help he only came out to ring me out. He did not even thank me for my purchase. I will not go to a place where people are not bothered about their customers.

Disappointing.........

Company: Lids
Address : 243 W 42nd St, New York, NY 10036, United States

URL: www.lids.com

Do you want to get a premium quality hat and caps, go and ahead with Lids, they have better tricks to scam you! Like you I purchased two sports caps, wool classic for $18.00 and Cooperstown Pennant for 24.00+$5 shipping. I couldn't believe my eyes when I saw Cooperstown Pennant was in bad condition! The reputed company sales old stock with fresh price. I told them regarding the Cooperstown, they asked me to send it and they send me a new fresh Cooperstown. Well, they never told about bearing shipping price of returning item. Well, I needed Cooperstown Pennant for our sports tournament and never send it till our match was finished. I am really very disappointed with lids. I would like to take my business somewhere else to save time and money both!

Not ready to refund me my money........

Company: Manhattan Mall
Address : 100 W 33 St, New York, NY 10001, United States


Manhattan Mall used to be the utilization of time and money. It was full of stores, teenyboppers displaying their public affections, but now it's has become kind of like dead zone. Almost less degree of crowd stops here because they have just finished at Macy's across the street. Recently I visited Manhattan Mall for shopping spring fashion clothes. They didn't have the one I wanted and forced me to buy one unwillingly. Yeah I paid for that $39.99 plus shipping charges, well, the spring top could fit me so I took I back the very next day. They didn't have the top of my size and also were not ready to refund. They plainly ask me to buy something else of that value when I didn't want anything..Finally I purchased a pair of shoe which was just better among their collection. I will advice shoppers Don't Buy anything from Manhattan Mall as they will surely rip you off! Taking huge amount from your pocket..

Hey don't buy anything from Dylan's candy Bar. They have most fascinating candies and chocolates but I will advise don't buy from them. Once after a movie I purchased some good jelly candies from their store and you can't imagine what happened after that..my 4 year old child was chewing those candies and he found one was too hard to chew and there was no flavor at all; so I removed it from his mouth and horrid to see..it was a transparent rubber piece. Thank god! he doesn't ate that otherwise may be a throat operation has to done to remove the piece as it was quite large and looked just like other jelly candies. Be aware of Dylan's my friends and dear moms!
