Conservice Utility Billing
ralston7964 January 18, 2010
In 3 months, I have seen my water/sewer bill rise from $90.00 to $168.00 to $258.00 I live by myself so I know how much water get's used. I have complained multiple times about them to my building manager, and to them in person and no one has done anything. I was gone for two weeks during the $258.00 month so I know they are screwing me. I would avoid these guys at all costs. read full review »

Bed Bath
Nexx January 18, 2010
I ordered some drapes from this company, they weren't quite what I wanted. I returned them and was told it would be 3 to 4 weeks before I received my refund. I also had to pay for the return and the refund will be less 10% for restocking. I have emailed them 3 times but haven't received a response. I've called but have been told they would email me when the refund comes through. I can't seem to get past the operator. read full review »

Katy TX
HanF51 January 18, 2010
I replaced the gear drive in my overhead door drive and was unable to adjust the chain drive. Called Spectrum Overhead and Travis made the adjustment within time and price quoted. The garage door would not descend and he told me it was a bad circuit board. I replace the circuit board, but same problem. After a little investigating, discovered the wires to the electroni sensors had been cut and the sensors repositioned. I wired the sensors back to the opener, repositioned them and re-installed the old circuit board. Everything works as it should, no thanks to Travis. Being a Senior, this was alot of work for me. read full review »

Gillece Plumbing Services
reneeromito January 16, 2010
I contacted Gillece Plumbing Services for minor plumbing work estimates: (1) to replace a fill valve on one toilet and check out a shutoff valve (2) check water pressure after the Borough replaced the water meter. The estimate that followed was OUTRAGEOUS and INSULTING. The estimate for (1) was 715.15 and included replacing the shutoff valve. A subsequent plumber completed the work for 119.00 and simply adjusted the shutoff valve. The estimate for (2) was 1500.60 and included adding an expansion tank to the water heater as well as replacing... read full review »

Fed up with Encore January 16, 2010
I initially made an inquiry with an Encore booking agent regarding a payment error. One question led to a very hostile interaction with the agent which led me to take my matter up with the CEO, Lawrence E. Hess. A few back-and-forth with Mr. Hess highlighted why the agents' attitude is the way it is...let's just say customer service (or the lack thereof) trickles down from the top. Mr. Hess was unhelpful and condescending. The last resort was that he deactivated my account. After several attempts to inquire as to why I can no... read full review »

I have a large front window that need sealed from the winter weather yearly. I purchase Duck along with a 3M product for my sliders to compare the quality and functionality. The only positive for the Duck product was the roll-on convenience for placement on the frame. The pre-taped edge for rolling is not sticky enough to give a secure seal and I would definately advise placing the double sided tape under it. It is pulling away from my frame all along the top. I have been doing this for years and followed the pre-application steps to the... read full review »
