Levi's 4 Floors - carpet
We purchased about $3000.00 dollars worth of Levi's carpet. After living in our home for a year the carpet upstairs as well as the living room downstairs had a bump in it running along the mid section. We called Levi's and they said they could stretch the carpet, but it may cost us. After complaining that it was exactly a year from installation, they agreed to stretch it for free, but we'd have to move all the furniture ourselves and be ready when they guy came. I was a bit mad, but we moved the rooms and had to sleep on the... read full review »

I signed up for vontage telephone service and before i got any hardware to use the service my house burned down. The house burned on Sept 18th 2007 and they say they delivered the hardware on sept 27th 2007. there was no one there to recieve anything.

MayTag Whirlpool
Beware MayTag - Whirlpool Products & Service...Based on our personal experience. Our MayTag Diswasher (Model MDB9750AWS) has rarely run more than several months without problems with the Control Board and/or Display Panel. Since whirlpool acquired MayTag, they will not share our repair history with us, or our (very dependable) service tech. Additionally, the warranty on parts has been reduced from one year to 9 months. For us...that means..."buy a new part, sucker!"
MayTag/Whirlpool has offered us a 10% mail-in rebate on a... read full review »
PSI Exams
PSI Exams is the most poorly mis-managed testing center company I have ever come across. Regrettably, PSI has the contract for many states to administer state exams -- real estate, auditor, contractors, etc. What no one at your training center will tell you is that you have to deal with PSI. Then, wham, what a rude awakening. PSI is a joke! Their website is notoriously bad and unreliable. Try calling them and you are on hold for a minimum of an hour (that was the longest I lasted, but your results may vary depending on your patience). ... read full review »
Gaiam
These guys are horrible. I've read dozens of complaints on Bizrate.com and other shopping sites. Wish I'd read them before I ordered the Christmas gift for my sister that never made it. Their customer service is completely unresponsive, and they obviously don't care about service at all. Its really too bad, because its a great idea and business model, but they suck. read full review »
WEED WEAR
I opened a business called WEED WEAR. I opened an account w/ godaddy.com, and paid 9.98 from my bank account.
Certegy immediately said the check bounced, when in fact it was paid.
My bank has sent proof in the form of cover letters, bank statements, and notarizing everything before faxing to Certegy Services, three times now. Certigy says its not enough. But wont say what is enough.
I cant pay for my renewal of my host fees nor shopping cart fees because they have a hold on my account and my business.
I had to close my bank... read full review »
The Camera Pros
Ordered a camcorder over the Internet from this "company." I received an email that said I had to call to confirm the order. When I did, they immediately asked me if I had ordered a "package" (one of their overpriced bags, batteries, etc.). I told them I didn't need those items and they said that what I had ordered was not in-stock and would take 3-4 weeks. I asked them if they could guaranteee that, because I was beginning to feel that this was a scam. The "employee" said, "No, of course not!" - as though... read full review »
DVD Compliation
I, as well, have been scammed. I tried to give them a second chance after reading the other complaints (even after their website wouldn’t load – how naïve can I be??!); however I still have not received my order which was to arrive by December 24th and have not received an email response to my email requesting status. I should have trusted my instincts! Order Number: 53002 read full review »

Verizon Internet and VOIP
I order internet and VOIP on the 20th of December for business internet and VOIP. A technician showed up on the 27th to install, however he said my service order address was incorrect. He stated he would return within 10 minutes. Never showed back up. I have called verizon repeated ever since and receive a different message every time. Needless to say they state my service will not be up until the 11 of Jan. I have informed them that I am a health care business, however they are failing to admit their error and resolve this issue. read full review »
Grant Master
They offered a free CD on Government grants. I paid $ 1.99 for shipping. They then enrolled me into 'www.FastSBALoan.com', 'www.NetworkAgenda.com', and 'everydayleagaforms.com' as a registered member. They have my phone number and credit card information. As far as I am concerned this is FRAUD on their part as I DID NOT, AND DO NOT WANT ANY PART OF THEM. All I was seeking was on how to apply for a government grant and NOTHING ELSE. If any charges appear on my bank statement asa result of this how can I SUE THEM and terminate their business practice altogether? read full review »

TheDVD Planet.org
I am in the same boat, only I did not find "theDVDPlanet.org". They found me via Amazon.com. I was perfectly fine with ordering my product from the website, but i was referred to "thedvdplanet.org" when trying to purchase the items I had on hold. They offered me the entire collection at a cheaper price, so of course I took advantage of what I thought was a great deal. Unless I get my money back, my child wont get that X-mas gift. read full review »

Special Day Events
This place was booked for a friends wedding and the service was not what they payed for. They lost money from a catering company they booked after SDE told the couple they can choose any caterers as long as they had a license. Three weeks before the wedding SDE told them they couldn't use the caterers they chose because they were not on the list of approved caterers. The contract online states the total cost for rental for a maximum seven hours and SDE only let them stay four hours. Also they threatened to charge $300 if anyone arrived... read full review »

I am in the same boat! I ordered the entire series of Nash Bridges at $120 including shipping. Got the tracking number.

You can not get back into their website but I found and email address and emailed them with no response. I'm contacting my bank to dispute the charge and have them look into it. read full review »

Global TelLink
I was not surprised to see all of the consumer complaints against Global TelLink. I have have many negative experiences with this company. Over the past couple of months, I have been dealing with issues with my credit card being declined although I have money in my account for the charges. Each time this happens, the funds are still held for several days in my bank account and I do not have access to my money.
I have called this company multiple times. I sit holding each time for at least 15-30 mins only to spend 1-2 hours on the phone... read full review »

Big Screen TV
When I bought my big screen TV from HHGregg I also purchased an extended warrenty.
When I made the purchase on the TV, I was told that the TV Lamp would last about 1 year. The price of the lamp would be $200-$300. Then I was told about the extended warrenty and their quick response to any problems I would have with the TV.
Given the cost of the TV Lamp, it made a lot sense to purchase the extended warrenty.
Sure enough the lamp went out after about 1 year!
What I have found out about HHGregg's extended warrenty is not the same a... read full review »
Carol Burnett Complete Series
Ordered the complete Carol Burnett DVD series on 11/20/07. Was sent an email by DVD Compilations on 11/29 stating my order had shipped with Canadpost tracking # with an estimated delivery date of 12/7 or 12/10. After several emails to dvdcompilations with no response our order finally arrived to our local post office on 12/22. It was in a Carol Burnett DVD case, but it is not the complete series. There should be 278 episodes and we only got 92 due to the fact that two of the discs were duplicated (shows 37-47 on both discs). Quality i... read full review »
watch
My husband died recently and before he died he had purchased for me a official Swiss Railways Watch". I brought the watch into Wal mart to have the battery replaced. Upon attempting to get crystal off the repair person broke the crystal. Her reaction was to giggle! I had to bring it to a jewelry store to have the crystal replaced at a cost of $60.00. I feel that Wal mart should be responsible for this. read full review »
HughesNet (Direcway)
Hugesnet (formerly Direcway) implemented a 'Fair Access policy' (FAP) which does not allow for the daily download bandwidth paid for by the service plains. This is because there is a 24hour penalty after the threshold for a day is reached.
If at 11:59pm I go 1 byte over the 200MB in my contract they will limit speed to below dialup speed for 24 hours after (not the 1 minute for the rest of the day or until the usage is back on track). This makes the 2 day average of broadband access 201MB or 100.5MB/day, not the 200MB/day that... read full review »
HoodiaPlex Labs/Hoodia Complex with green tea
All I'd authorized was the charge for the shipping and handling for the free trial bottle. A month later I recieved a second bottle and noticed on my checking account I'd been charged $69.95. The phone number they put on the transaction is bogus, so I had to call the number on the bottle. The lady I spoke to informed me that once the product is shipped out and charged to my account that I can not be reimbursed because the product can not be resold, regardless if the package was not opened. I also asked her for the name and number... read full review »
Mervyns Dept Store
The details are so numerous that it is impossible to include them all. However, I was charged for an item that I did not purchase on April, 2007 (it was a purchase being made by a lady next to me that was accidentally added to my charge). I immediately caught the charge during purchase and it was supposedly rectified by the clerk at Mervyns at that time-it wasn't, and showed up on my statement! I called immediately and was sent a statement to sign. I signed and returned the statement. I was then billed again for the item! I... read full review »
IDINS (Identity Theft Support)
This company withdrew $31.98 from my checking account and was not authorized to do so. I conacted my bank to try to get a phone number and address for the company. There was no address listed but there was a phone number. I have called that number at least 10 times. It seems to be an identity theft protection company. I never applied for this. When you call the phone number, youe get a recorded introduction and they transfer you but no one picks up the phone. How and what can I do to get my money back? Also, I recently found out that I am not the only one who this has happened to. read full review »
Gambler / Cigarette Machine
We just bought the new Gambler Cigarette Machine because we roll our own cigarettes, its cheaper, but this new machine is absolutely the worst ever. The main problem and it is a problem is that when you put the cigarette tube on the end of the machine, you have to take a toothpick and try to clean the other tobacco out from the previous cigarette that you just rolled. This in itself is a hassle. There is no room to actually try to get a toothpick under the tube area and even when you shake the machine, or should I say, move the top portion... read full review »

Americast bathtub
After several years of normal use, this rather high priced bathtub has several large rust through spots around the drain and in the middle of the tub. The rust in the middle of the tub consists of about a dozen or so parallel lines that to me suggests a manufacturers defect rather than normal wear and tear. Plus, we have used a rubber bathmat the entire time, so it has not even been subjected to normal foot wear. Do not buy Americast! Buy a cast iron tub. read full review »
