I'm not sure if what happened to me falls under predatory lending per se but it must be consider fraud. I had a condo and loan in San Diego through Countrywide and used a Countrywide authorized loan agent to process my loan application. For my income I faxed on my company letterhead a memo stating I made $60k annually and it was signed by my manager. I just found out the amount reported on my loan doc is $160k not the $60k I reported. When I called 'The Bianchi Team - 858-678-1503' authorized loan agents for Countrywide, they... read full review »

We were in the process of trying to buy a house and found out that there was a report from JC Penneys. This report is not ours it is our sons account. He has the same name but a Jr. This is very upsetting for us as it is stopping our ability to buy the house we want. Beware! read full review »

Won't give out rebates. Posted one back in November of 2006 for $50 REBATE when you purchase a sportster radio and activation. When I contacted them they said they never received it and told me to resubmit it. Since I didn't make a photo copy of the receipt I figured it was my stupidity, even though I purchased it from them directly. Now I sent them a new rebate for a free sportster radio and an additional rebate for the purchase of a boom box. The rebate total to $200, and I made sure I followed this one perfectly. I did it online... read full review »

I purchased a new E320 in 2003. I am very disappointed with one aspect of this car. In approximately four and half years, its climate control system has failed five times. I do put about 20k miles per year. But this car has its climate control system failing about every 20K miles. For a fifty eight thousand dollar car, FIVE failures in a common comfort system are unacceptable. I suppose Luxury Car means luxury from these hassles of every day problems. 1.

ECPI was a complete rip off. I went to ECPI with the hopes of pursuing a career in criminal justice. My teachers were great, I learned a lot from them. However the Administration was very lacking. They say you can complete their courses in less than two years, and that is true if the class is offered. I had 5 or 6 classes left and some of them kept getting canceled. Because of this my graduation date kept changing. The told us the reason the class was canceled was due to a lack of students. I spoke with several students who were also set to... read full review »

At the time that I ordered satellite TV from Direct Star TV, I was talked into accepting the offer of a free month of Sirius Satellite Radio. I say this as I hardly listened to the radio to begin with. Even before I received the equipment, I began receiving email reminders to activate the service. So as soon as I received it, I opened the box and called to activate since the emails stated to "activate today", and otherwise if I didn't activate by December 31, 2007, I would be charged a $50 non-activation fee. Not being... read full review »

I called and canceled my subscription. I was told no money would be taken out of my account. They took the money. I called back and was told it would be reimbursed in 3-5 business days. It has been 2 weeks and no money has been returned. I had to close my account because of overdraft charges from their unauthorized withdrawal. I try to call them, and there is a recording saying their system is down and to call back in 24 hours. This has been going on for over a week. I call another number, and they tell me to email [email protected]... read full review »

I purchased a American telecom phone from Office Depot on Aug.27, 2007 @39.99$+tax6%. It was free after mail in rebate, $20 from Office Depot and $20from American Telecom. I submitted as per instruction, I received $20 from Office Depot but for $20 rebate from American Telecom is not come yet. On Oct. 04 2007 I received a letter that UPS code must be resubmitted before Oct 18 2007. I call them and inform them that I already submitted that although I submitted copy on 10-18-2007 with post mark but till date I never get that amount. I guess American telecom is attracting people with fake offer and never care for rebate. That is unfair as a customer. read full review »

This is the worst credit card company I've ever witnessed. Each call renders you on hold for 20 minutes each time! I canceled membership shortly after receiving the catalog, because I did not care for it at all. I have been waiting for over one full month for this company to reimburse me for the initial membership fee, as I canceled within the 30-day trial period. It may only be $120 but I did not make them wait for them to begin the membership, I am tired of waiting and getting the run-a-round from the representatives of this company. read full review »

I ordered this product, trusting that their guarantee would be honored. It's called colon cure,If you don't like the product you can call in and cancel auto shipment of this product. You have14 days to cancel. I received it on 1/22/08. The product hurt my stomach, on the 1/28/08 I called the company cancellation # 1-801-208-7485. Busy, busy and then the phone hangs up. I have made several attempts on 1/30/08, 1/31/08,2/01/08, 2/04/08 busy, no respond. How can you cancel if you can't get in contact with the company.

I 'subscribed' to what I thought was an unlimited 'subscription' to obtaining information on people, whether it be myself, or others. When I tried to enter a name, it said I had to enable cookies. I did so, but it still did not work. I used another operating system, and eventually got onto the site, and it immediately said I had used all my 'credits.' On the purchase page for this site, it did not say anything about needing 'credits', but their tech support (and I use that term lightly) says all the... read full review »

Came home from work to find the wife could not say no to a carpet cleaning demo for the Kirby Sentria. Basically nothing bad went on to my knowledge other than I suspected that when I asked if the cleaner he demoted was actually right out of the box or was I buying the demo that was used at prior homes I was told the unit was brand new, never used anywhere but in my home. I was charged a lot of money for a cleaner but can't really complain about this as I've seen much worse. The 'sales manager' had promised to bring u... read full review »

I went online to check my bank account and I saw a check had gone through for $17.95. It was an electronic check that I had never authorized, let alone I had never even heard of the company. I went to the bank that day to cancel my account and transfer my funds into a different account. I have no idea how this company got my account number and my bank routing number. I am completely confused. My bank had me file an affidavit of forgery. It's so scary to think how easy it is for a person with some computer knowledge to get your... read full review »

When I was a member of E-harmony more than 95% of the men they matched me up with lived at least 1000 miles away from me and the few who lived less than 200 miles away (whom I could count on one hand) closed me out. I live in Boston. E-harmony's matching program couldn't find ANY men in my heavily-populated area with whom to match me? Somethings fishy since as soon as I let my membership expire, E-harmony then magically was suddenly able to find me matches in the Boston area, often sending me one or more a week as "bait"... read full review »

Parker is not honoring the lifetime warranty that came with my Duofold ballpoint pen. It broke in half as I was using it and they refuse to repair it. After back and forth correspondence, it has become clear that they see things very differently. They claim that the twist mechanism is subject to wear and tear, and therefore is NOT covered by the warranty. When it dies, so does your expensive pen. I never would have purchased such an expensive pen had I known that. To make matters worse, Parker planned poorly and ran out of parts necessary to... read full review »

The purpose of this post is just to warn other people about this particular church. In my attempt to get help addressing a moral / ethical issue with a church member who has cheated me out of a sizable amount of money, (for me) I discovered some very disturbing things.

There is a concept taught today in modern churches that when you have an issue, like mine, that you confront the person and if they wont... read full review »
