Bought a refurbished Compaq Deskpro. Tried to boot it up 2 days ago, and got an error message saying Himem.sys was missing or corrupt. Called CR in Peoria, IL and spoke with 2 reps. They both told me I need to run the Restore disk that was included with the PC. I asked if this would just restore my registry and one of the reps said yes. Loaded the restore disk in the CD Rom drive and it immediately started running a "ghost" of the original hard drive, wipeing out my entire drive. I spoke with the store and they admitted that I was given wrong information, but they expressed no regret. I will never purchase anything from them again. read full review »

Excellent experience shopping with these guys, tech support guided me towards choosing the right memory for my system after having problems with other vendors, order was shipped quickly and arrived safely. Thanks for a pleasant experience. read full review »

I hate them. They gave me more grief than I can explain right here over returning a DEFECTIVE monitor!!! It ended up costing me extra $$ just to get rid of it!!! Here I am now, several months later, and they have not yet credited me for the purchase/return. I steer far, far away from them -- they have the worst customer service i've ever experienced AND they brag about how great their customer service is!!! I hate them. read full review »

I always enjoy purchasing from Computer Gate. Don't come to browse though, they don't show images when listing items and browsing becomes a very boring activity. If you know what you want it's a good stop. The prices are always reasonable, and their package deals are great. Watch out for the somewhat hidden $2ish handleing fee. read full review »

Will not purchase from again in Birmingham, AL location. Business will not return items in any way, shape or form except for exact item only. Have purchased many things from them in the past that were needed quickly. ( I work in IT industry, networking, desktop). A few months ago purchased a Abit motherboard for $50 more than could have gotten at most places online. After spending countless hours over 5 days troubleshooting and on Abit forums, everyone determined that it was defective. I took complete pc system back to CBW to... read full review »

Absolutely the worst company to deal with. I placed an order and ran into nothing but trouble. 1st, they backordered the product after I paid 3 day shipping. I got 3 different ship dates and finally they sent the product out 3 weeks later. This is not the last part of the problem, now they will only ship to the billing address on my card (understandable) although it is 5000 miles away and they can ship to where I was for an additional $30 in shipping. That made me wonder, so I get the product sent from my billing address to my location. Now I... read full review »

I placed an order for a tape back up drive and medio from this company on a Tuesday morning. I was assured that the item was in stock and would be shipped that day and I should get in about 3 days. On the following Monday I called and inquired as to why I had not received the items. I was told that my credit card billing address and shipping address did not match. I checked the information I gave them and it was correct. I called the credit card company later and verified my address on record with them, all was correct. My problem with thi... read full review »

This is the most unprofessional company that have ever had the displeasure of attempting to do business with. I placed an order, emailed them three times without response and attempted to phone them. The phone number listed has a recorded message that directs you to email them (duh). Only after I emailed them again explaining that I had contacted my bank and stated that no charges from this company were authorized, did I get a cancellation of my order. Under no circumstances would I recommend this company to anyone as their busine... read full review »

Great buying experience. Purchased an ATI Radeon 9800 Pro retail box. They had the cheapest price around. I did have to call to get a tracking number sent but no big deal. They were very friendly. I also made the mistake of having it shipped UPS Ground. I will never use them again. Fedex from now on. Overall good experience, will buy from them again. read full review »

The Sails Group, which is supposed to be a non-profit, is a very corrupt company. Many of the employees who work here or have worked here are not getting paid. Several employees are consistently missing more than half of their paycheck amounts yet they continue to come into work for fear of termination. Those who complain seem to note that the company does a lot of illegal wrangling around to threaten or get rid of the employees who do complain. Currently, there is at least one employee who is going to take this issue to small claims court;... read full review »

You may see a website that show's Kelsey's Weight Loss program that has a nice story about a local resident that loses weight from some AMAZING products such as Acai Berry and Cologenix.

I have just recently filed my taxes and was looking over statements and have noticed actually two companies withdrawing from my checking account and I believe it happened when I signed up for a free credit report. One which is called PMIdentity and the other is AP*9 yoursavingsclub.com. PMIdentity has been taking out $29.95 a month since July of last year and it is now February. The other company yoursavingsclub.com has only been taking out $1 a month since July of '08 as well. I want my money back. PMIdentity stole $209.65 and yoursavingsclub $7. This is insanity.

I have just read a lot of the complaints that other people have made because I myself was starting to wonder what happened to my book that I ordered. I thought I was really lucky to have my poem published because it had to do with something very tragic; and so when I recieved that letter my husband said he would pay for a copy so I could see my work in print. But apparently you guys are just out to make a quick buck. I would also like to point out that the number that was printed on my return letter was disconnected and I had to call... read full review »

Sent in the card for the special 1 year subscription to Runners World magazine. The subscription expired Jan 2009. I didn't want to renew a second year, so I did nothing. Against my intention, the company automatically renewed the magazine. Early Feb 2009 I received a notice from the North Shore Agency requesting collection for payment. Classy magazines such as the Economist don't assume you want to renew unless you specifically state that. Now I'm trying to stop the company Rodale from sending them to me.

I have been getting a $15.25 charge on my phone bill every month for 6 months for a SURVIVAL KIT-SBO ONLINE. The charge is billed on my AT&T phone bill. The charge is billed through Enhanced Billing Services (EBS). They said we signed up via the internet for "additional health insurance" in July 2007. There was an introductory free trial period of 3 months and then after e-mailing us (which we never got) a confirmation of the service, we were automatically buying the service.

Me and my partner bought a Sumsung LCD 3 months ago. When we first brought it home and unpacked it the plastic around the tv was distorted and melted looking, we returned it and got another.

This site is bullshit. Competitors can post anything they want anonymously, and there is no accountability. ISPNA performs magic tricks for people. John W. Kearns is a former attorney, with 20 years of experience, who was disbarred for no good reason -- it was an injustice. He never stole anything or is in any way guilty of harming clients go read the report at iardc.org, and you will see the worst side against him -- and that should be clear it is all bullshit against Mr. Kearns.

On 1/24/2009 I emailed Customer Support (like the website suggested) to cancel my membership. On 1/27/2009 (3 days later) I recieve an email stating that I didn't cancel my "free" membership in time so I was billed for the $88.97. I then requested a RMA code to return the 30-day supply that was shipped to me that day. The company denied me a code, stating that I didn't cancel my membership in time... read full review »

I ordered an LG phone from cellular-blowout about 2 weeks before Christmas with 2-day shipping. But, because they did not deliver the product in time, I cancelled the order and requested refund. However, I still have not gotten my refund. No refund. I have sumitted several complaints to their agents via their message board (They do not have any contact phone numbers that I can find), but, after 6 weeks, I still have not received anything back from them. Does anyone know if there is a legal action - or any other official action - that I can take again something like this? I need to get about $200 back from them. read full review »
