Alienware Area-51 m5500 Laptop
December 25, 2007
I purchased an Alienware Area-51 M5500 laptop in 08/07 for $1628. I have now been officially getting the run around from customer service. Here is my problem. About 4 months after I purchased the computer it started to randomly shut down of its own accord. The battery level made no difference. Unfortunately, I was deployed at the time and had no real way to get in touch with the company, so I let it go until I returned from deployment. I sent an e-mail request for assistance. The response had me changing code in the BIOS which I wa... read full review »

UniCare / WellPoint
December 25, 2007
I am currently (but soon not to be) a customer of UniCare. My insurance rate was $161 per year. On November 1, my rate rose to $225. On January 1, it goes up to $264. My deductible is $2,500. I have bare-bones insurance. I only go to the doctor once or twice a year for minor ailments. That is a rate increase in two months of 64%. If, in 2008, these rate increases continue, that would be an increase of 384% per year... 384% PER YEAR!!! That is 83 TIMES the inflation rate of 4.6%. 83 TIMES!!! I cannot afford this.

Baja Resort Advisor / The Falls Condo Development
December 25, 2007
To Whom It May Concern: If you are unfamiliar with Gabriel Robles, he claims to be a developer of resort projects in Baja California, Mexico. He is also head of ADETUR (Baja Developer's Association) whose mission, ironically, is to promote ethical business dealings in Baja in order to attract foreign investment. My family and I invested $150,000 in one of his condominium projects in Rosarito, about 30 minutes south of the border crossing in San Diego. To this day, I am owed well in excess of $200,000. Based on an investment... read full review »

I've purchased 3 electric "warming" blankets since January or February of this year. I have listed them above. Honestly, none of them worked over six weeks (if that long). Once I got them up to a good, high heat...they freaked out & basically just quit. I assume that the companies are so afraid of being sued these days that they won't make the good, old-fashioned kinds that our family used when I was a young girl. (I'm 59 now).

I would advise, even if you think a collection is valid, to dispute it anyway.
