I saw an ad for iadt detroit. I had been looking to go back to school and thought fashion design may be a fun field and went to check the school out. I went there and was met by my admissions rep. She asked me about my college history. I told her i had my associates degree in liberal arts. She says, "oh great. So you have an art degree". I know i should have walked away at that comment. She asked me a few more questions, walked away for a few minutes, had me pay her $50 and shook my hand congratulating me on getting accepted at... read full review »

When I received my credit card statement for June I observed a charge for $84.97 from CJW holdings Inc. out of UTAH. I called my card provider and disputed that charge of 484.97. Then when I received my July statement their it was another $84.97 charge. I called my card provider again to dispute these charges. It is fraud when someone uses your credit card for unauthorized purchases. read full review »

This company calls all the time and will not tell me the company name and continuously asks for sensitive security info about myself. He also uses an automated answering message when calling. I called back and the person in question was extremely rude. Beware! read full review »

Signed up for a free credit report, and had to join, got kicked out of the process, got back in, have been charged this fee for about a year. Did not know what it was for, and neglected to verify why it was being charged. Tried to contact the 800 number and have tried for 7 business days in a row. I have called in both morning and afternoon hours, waited on hold between 15 minutes and 1.25 hours before giving up on getting an actual person to handle my questions. Ridiculous. read full review »

I was told to contact a certain courier company and give them my personal info along with the "secret" number so I could claim my 750,000 pounds sterling(I guess thats what that funky symbol is). After a little research, I found there is no "Brittish" Nat'l Lottery. I would guess that when I contacted the number given, they would in turn ask me for money so they could send me my "winnings."--- Do people really fall for this crap! read full review »

I had shopped at another Macy's (Smithhaven Mall) where I received an additional 50% discount on 3-4 designer names yesterday. I went to Macy's Hampton Bays today, and asked the sales lady about the additional sale. She informed me she knew nothing about it. Not knowing is not an answer. Upon pressing her to find out, I asked to see her Manager. The woman (Fanny, 265855)showed up huffing and puffing, advised me that I was already told that they "knew nothing about it" When I asked her to make a call and find out, she... read full review »

Earlier this year I went to them as a smog check only (i think it's called) place to participate in this program dmv has for car owners who's car does not pass smog. They replaced one thing for $500 then wanted to replace something else that would make the total big to $1500 minus the $400 or 500 the program pays. The second issue was discussed over the phone & I refused. When I picked up the car I asked for the quote w/the additional amount & they said they deleted it, but could re-do it and fax it. When I got the fax it... read full review »

Received $250 wireless speaker from Brookstone as gift from company I work for, exchanged with gift receipt for tool set and a gift for my wife. Wife wanted me to exchange the gift I got her but I left the receipt in my pants which ended up in the wash. The Manger at Brookstone (looked all of about 19) said she couldn't let me exchange it because I didn't have the receipt (I didn't want money back, I just wanted to exchange it for something else) as this was against their "Return Policy". I won't shop at Brookstone ever again and will be filing a complaint with the Better Business Bureau. read full review »

Hydranics Driveline Service Inc. 1947 W. Route 34 Plano IL 60545 Complaint: I purchased a 1996 Honda Civic last year. I had an air conditioning belt replaced on the car in June 2007. The Shop owner at Hydranics wanted to check the rest of the vehicle for any other potential problems.

My mother-in-law reserved a car through the internet with Travelvelocity through Car Rental Express. She was given a confirmation number with Autorent - San Diego. When she arrived at the Autorent office on 3346 Kettner Blvd in San Diego, she was told that Autorent did not have any cars, but that she could, literally, go to the next door in the building to Payless Car Rental where they would honor her Reservation. Strangely, Payless' address is the same as Autorent (3346 Kettner Blvd). When she arrived, she was told by the manager... read full review »

I was in the Hardees in Rushville, IL yesterday and it was so hot in there we had to leave. I was told the air conditioner had been broken for approximately a week. It could not be fixed because the person in charge was on vacation and no one else was authorized to call for repair. It would not be fixed until this person returned. This is too stupid for words. Someone should be appointed to handle emergencies in the absence of boss, manager, etc. I live in Rushville, but I won't return until cool weather, if then. This is outrageous and no way to run a business. read full review »

I opened an account with Juniper/Barclay's in May 2007. I requested a balance transfer of a Well's Fargo deferred interest account in June 2007. Juniper/Barclay's paid the wrong person. A representative from Juniper/Barclay's said the account numbers were "not clear" so they "matched" the account numbers. Why would they be so careless considering they have all my contact information including my SSN? They eventually retrieve the monies & paid Well's Fargo, after the deferred interest promotion... read full review »

This is the first time that I have encountered a mortgage company that calls daily after the 1st of the month to ask when they can expect my payment. The payment is due between the 1st and the 16th but by the 2nd, they are calling. In the past, I have dealt with Ameriquest and Countrywide and never had anyone call to find out when or if a payment should be expected. They even suggested once that I make a payment over the phone by cheque, cost - $22.00 to avoid late fees, and still charged me a late fee. What is going on with this company. read full review »

Add me to the list of people scammed by this company! They still have failed to deliver the DVD set I ordered as a Christmas gift for my son.

This company needs to be yanked off the internet. read full review »

My wife and I have had literally stellar credit our entire lives. We have a long and reliable credit history. We purchased a home and got a 15 year FIXED mortgage. We have religiously paid our mortgage on-time since. Since the initial loan, our mortgage was purchased by Washington Mutual (WAMU). We received a telephone call from WAMU’s collection department stating our mortgage was not paid for May 07... what... yes it was??? Through some investigation we have learned that they determined our escrow was short and they... read full review »

I am a 53 year old female who just starting getting a negative notation on a credit reporting agency for past due accounts. The account was a JC penny account that was owned by an ex-husband who I divorced 9 years ago. The account was opened in 1974.

This morning I went to 3 Walgreens stores in Decatur, IL looking for the new release DVD Flushed Away which was advertised for release on Feb 20 (today). This item was advertised in Sunday's newspaper Walgreens ad along with a $5.00 off coupon. The first store said they had only received 2 of the DVDs and were already sold out! The other 2 stores had not even received any of the advertised item. This is certainly a way for Walgreens to make customers mad... chasing around from store to store looking for an item in your ad only to find out... read full review »

About 15 months ago I bought a Riccar vacuum cleaner. Within a few months the motor burned out and the dust brush holder fell off. The vacuum cleaner store replaced the motor. A month ago that motor burned out too. I took the machine back and they ordered another new motor. When I went to pick up the machine, the store person told me that whitish dust/dirt clogged the motor, which was the fault of my carpet or the underlying pad ( 5 years old, indoor/outdoor carpet with no pile, in a 2 room apartment.) I changed bags monthly, washed the foam... read full review »

I subscribed June 13, 2007 to their high speed internet service. Due to circumstances, we later decided to move to a town 10 miles from here. I called earthlink to transfer the service and was told they do not have high speed internet in my new area. I asked to cancel my account and was told I would be charged the termination fee of $145. I said I thought it is unfair to charge that penalty fee when they do not have the same service available in the new location. Some one who said she is a supervisor told me that is earthlink's policy. I... read full review »

I have a 2002 BMW 330i convertible. Yesterday (7/20/2007) I was driving on an expressway in Baltimore, Md when my car stalled. The highway was extremely busy and my husband and I are lucky we did not get killed. There were several lights (error lights) lit up, eml, check engine soon, brakes and one more like a triangle. I called the nearest BMW dealer and was told to bring the car or tow the car to them. After I shut off the ignition and restarted the car, I could drive about 25 mph to the dealer. After putting the car on a computer they... read full review »

I have bought a pair of Pull and Bear shoes on 28.03.2007 . Because of the rainy weather, I started to use these shoes about the first week of June. However unfortunately, those shoes got extremely worn out after a week. After then, I took my shoes to the store for returning the product. At first, store manager Kutlu Derin did not accept to send the shoes for an investigation. After a long talk, he accepted to do it. On the other hand, he continuously humiliated me by saying “You have hit the shoes to wall or have done ballet on your... read full review »

In 2005, I met with Ruth Moore to purchase gowns from her and be trained in how to open and run a bridal store. She said we could get every dress manufacturer from her and that she had a network of other stores she helped across the nation. She was located in Medford, MN and I was in Florida. She seemed legitimate until I could not get a hold of her or my gown orders. To this day I still of never heard from her. I know of several other girls that this happened to. She takes thousands from them and then delivers used or discontinued styles. If you are interested in opening a bridal business - Stay away from her! read full review »

In checking out the Lowes rep admitted he made a mistake on the order and the handles I ordered were not available. But there were not any handles included at all. Also the doors were not made correctly one was higher than the other. So the doors were reordered. 3 weeks later Lowes came out to install the doors. This time they did include handles which were to be brass. One was brass and one... read full review »
