I am writing this letter to bring to your attention a very unpleasant situation created by the employees of Certified Tire & Service in the El Cajon store. On 07/07/2006 at 8:00 AM I had an appointment for oil change at the store located on 790 N Johnson, in El Cajon. Although I was in the store at 8:00 AM, the store manager, who gave his name as John, did not generate the work papers until 8:15 AM. There were no other customers in the store at that moment. After I gave him the car key I asked him how long will it take for the... read full review »

HGTV has a bogus backyard giveaway contest. The catch, you have to answer a servey for numerous products, companies, then subscribe to some of them BEFORE you can proceed with the "contest" entry. One page asks for the last 4 digits of your social security number. This is not a contest. Just another cheap shot aiming to make more money from advertising. read full review »

I recently filed a suit in small claims suit against the Debt Consolidation Co., 5762 Okeechobee Blvd, #147, West Palm Beach, FL. 33417 for services not rendered in 2004. In early March 2004, I decided to surf the Internet for a Debt Consolidation Company to help me manage my debt. During my search, I came across a Website for the Debt Consolidation Company located at http://www.debtadvantage.com because I felt this company could support my need for debt relief and were affiliated with the Customer Assistance Program for the Better... read full review »

We ordered an Equator #375S refrigerator ($1300+ w/tax and shipping) online through Universal Kitchen and Appliance in Studio City, California around July 23rd, 2005 to be delivered to our home in Northern California. Upon delivery, we immediately noticed that one of the shelves’ plastic side rails that allow it to slide into place was completely cracked off, making the shelf useless. The Equator is a very small capacity unit so the loss of one shelf makes it pretty useless. The top back of the refrigerator was smashed in a... read full review »

I called, but was told that my credit "was not approved" and I must pay a large deposit for the four free rooms. Then they offered to check someone else's credit - anyone else's credit. On a hunch, I gave them my mother's info. She has a Platinum Amex card, with a perfect credit rating and a limit so high we... read full review »

"United Cleaners" located on 30-07 36th Ave in Queens New York is a business in which has no consideration for its consumers. The owner is very disrespectful and does not qualify for a job in his profesionalism. I write such negative comments because of a personal incident in which occured on June 07, 2006. After picking up two brand new blouses I have asked to add a inch of material under the sleeve, I noticed both blouses had a stain as if the blouses were burned. I went back to the owner and explained my problem. He then went into a... read full review »

I ordered two AutoCool solar powered fans for my car via the website autocooltv.com. Even though I opted-out for the shipping cost of the "free" cup holder caddy, they were shipped. The total charge for shipping was $7.95 for each unit. Making the order a total of $45.88 for two $14.95 products. The company is not refunding the shipping so by the time I return the units for a refund I will have spent at least $20 just to find out that if there are any truth in advertising laws they don't seem to apply to this product which lowered the temp in the car maybe two degrees.

I understand that they charge a fee to come out and give a quote. I had requested this service and paid for it in the past. I managed a property in South Elgin and called Amy to get a quote. This was in October of 2005. It was a relatively big job regarding municipal code violations and other safety issues. They guy who came out told me that he was not able to give me a quote because the job was too complicated. So I had to drive out and meet the supervisor a few days later.

Mine is more of a question than a complaint. I just heard that there's someone who would like to pass a law banning the use of cell phones in public. Whatever happened to the "Land of the Free?" The mayor of New York raised the price of cigarettes to $7.50 a pack to discourage people from buying them. Who legalized tobacco all those years ago? The government. He also wants to ban smoking in public places. We can't use cell phones in a moving vehicle, we can't smoke in public places, We can drink in public places, but if... read full review »

The place is filthy. They don't clean up. I complained numerous times that the bathrooms needed attention. It took Multiple times for me to get someone to go in to clean it up.

I went again to there and it wasn't any better.What can I do besides not going there? Can you help me? Park details: Crystal Springs Water Park, East Brunswick, New Jersey read full review »

I would like to share this with you as I am tired of getting RIPPED-OFF!!! These people have not only ripped ME off, but I am sure they have done it to others too!

Symantec - I would have been less frustrated with a virus - I think that with "virus protection service like Norton's who needs viruses? " (from "with friends like that who needs enemies?"). I have paid for a download which I didn't want to do, because I have dial up and really wanted the update mailed, but for some reason the renewal system wouldn't accept my payment (something to do with different addresses) which I didn't understand because I have had the same address for 20 years.

My husband and I had a TERRIBLE experience there. We signed a contact to build a new home in March, 2006. We were pre approved for a loan with the mortgage company affiliated with Kimball Hill Homes, KH Financial. We wrote an initial check to them for $1000 at that time. We wrote two additional checks on scheduled dates, each for $2500. When we wrote the last check, I had asked our sales person, Betty Prejzner, if our money would be returned to us if something happened to our financial situation, and we were unable to obtain the financing.

In an effort to clean up her credit my daughter signed up with Triple Advantage to get free credit reports. She did not register for any extra benefits and should but since that time has been getting monthly charges on her debit card. She has twice called the company to request that they stop charging her, they have agreed to do so each time, but continue to charge her account each month. This is the worst! Totally unfair to take advantage of people who are attempting to use their services to get their finances in order! read full review »

If you are considering using an insulin pump, I would strongly advise you to look at alternatives other than Minimed. Erery time you call, you will get a runaround. They put up new hurdles to jump over for re ordering on a weekly basis it seems. “Customer Support” is an oxymoron to them. Every time you call you speak to a different person, and most of them fail to understand what you need. For example: My son wears a pump and has worn it for years. I tried to reorder supplies and told them of new insurance I had. They... read full review »

I give the sales person (Randy) a drawing and measurement (done by Lewis). Randy made the list of materials ($1996.73) and installation prices ($1213.27). When the installer came to do the installation they were short materials. Randy misses several pieces. I when back to and bought the extra material. The Laminate Store will not send the installer back unless I pay $75.00 trip fee. The Laminate Store salesman (Randy) made the mistake; therefore the Laminate Store should pay the trip fee. When I ask the manager, He said “No” and walks away. He gave no apology. This is poor service and insulting. read full review »

Has anyone notified you about Publisher Business Services? Their address is 701 N. Green Valley Parkway Suite 200 Henderson NV 89074. They are pushing magazines.

I did not sign anything and I e-mailed to them to cancel the subscription plan. You might think you are getting a good deal but the cost is expensive. Mary Anne. read full review »
