I have been a Hughes customer for several years now. I have never called for support and have paid my bill on time every time. I just discovered that the home service offered to new customers has a download speed of 1.0 mbps. My home service is only 700 kbps. The price is the same but the new customers get a better service. I understand that my modem needs to be upgraded to a HN7000S to get faster speeds and I don't have a problem with that. The problem is that I was told that I would have to upgrade to the Pro plan and $69.99 to get that... read full review »

I should have trusted my gut when they called me to confirm the order and started on with the upsell and bull about batteries grey market and all the rest.I was stressed out at the time with other issues and instaed of cancelleing I went ahead with the order. I then called back less tha an hour later to cancel and they gave me a line that te order had already been processed and could not be cancelled as I would have to receive it forst and then... read full review »

Thought I would update my continuing harassment by this company. I sent them an email through their website feedback form telling them to stop calling me, so they called me SEVEN TIMES the next morning!!! Since they were calling my home phone number, which is on the do not call list, I reported the events to the appropriate government agency. Didn't hear from them for two weeks (they insisted that they were going to take our information off their records) and yesterday they started calling me again! Why ANYONE would use a company that... read full review »

I saw the job add in the pennysaver for corona, ca. said that they were offering up to 4000/month for the management position in a local office that they were opening within 30-90 days. they set up an interview the same day, filled out the application, and she hired me on the spot and charging me a 'registration fee' of $60.00 and then the first day of training they wanted $99.00 for the 'kit fee' which would be 'refunded upon becoming a manager'... they are full of BS!! Someone i know told me that it was a scam so i am going to get my money back or i WILL take legal action.. STAY AWAY FROM SAFETY PRO!! read full review »

Our local MN telephone company representative noticed the additional $49.95 fee on our local phone bill. She called to sak if it was authorized. Being a small corporation, we have not audited the local phone bills as the total cost is very consistent. The billing has been there for the past six months. New Link Network bills through a third party billing company, ILD Telecommunications, Inc. The ILD operator was very courteous and has blocked 888-303-8674 from being added to our phone bill. New Link Network does not answer their phone. No one here has authorized the billing. read full review »

I placed an order online 12/10 and they promptly sent an automated order confirmation email and that's the last I've heard from them. The phone number simply rings to an answering machine and there is never a reply to email inquires sent to customerservice AT a2zhobbies.com. I've learned the owners of A2Z also run a site called thetapecompany.com and folks in the sales department work in the same building and accross the hall from A2Z but they claim they are never able to find an A2Z rep that can take my call. read full review »

I purchase a walker from babies are us in April/2008. I didnot use the walker until November of 2008 and within a month and 1/2 the seat which holds the baby is falling apart cracking and the foam is exposed. I contacted babytrend and they advised me that because I bought in April they can not do anything for me. I was told I can purchase a replacemnt seat. I think this is absurd as anyone knows a baby does use a walker until they are about 7 to 8 months old. so when I rec'd it as a gift. i didn't use it until it was needed. which... read full review »

I bought a custom $2000 Laptop from them in 2005 for video editing, it crashed constantly. I sent it back to them for repairs ( I paid the $35 postage! )... I don't even think they opened it!!! I was then in a major car accident and it was put in storage. When I brought it back out, I tired to find out WHAT I could do to fix it as the crashes pointed to a bad graphics device driver... well, there is no compatible drivers for this card and the manufacturer doesn't even give info out on this laptop. Cyberpower wouldn't help me... read full review »

Yeslocal is a company ran by individuals that have never worked in the advertising market before. They have little understanding of how it works. It's main ceo ran his last company into the ground and started this one. They have multiple sales staff that completely lie to customers. They told us to tell customers that we don't charge anything more than the $49 dollar month fee. But they take as much as 50% of the customers advertising budget and pocket it. They also try to spend as little of the customers ad budget to pocket more... read full review »

This company does not even employ a single painter. They send out a nicely-dressed salesperson to sell you on the job. They even say that they will be painting the job. Then they run out un-screened "professional" painters to show up at your door. Alot of the sub-contractors do not speak English. Quite a few are not even legal aliens. Stay away from this company. It is not worth it. read full review »

We chose Greg to take photos of our daughter's wedding in June 2007. In the package, we bought the wedding books. These are small bound books to give to relatives, friends, etc. It is now December 2008 and we still do not have the books for the second Christmas in a row, 18 months later.! Yes, he has been paid - what a mistake we made. He keeps promising them but he always needs just a little bit more of information. The photos were average in creativity and quality - although we paid a premium. If you do choose Greg Blomberg, do not pay until you receive your complete photo package or you may never get them! read full review »

I won a lottery I did even enter for $39, 000; which would be credited to my account later after contacting special agents Sarah Smith or Michael Edwards by phone (which goes to a recording). I received a percentage check for $3, 900 (very real looking check- no full address from the bank though). I am suppose to deposit the check and wire them a small holding fee and also give them my account # to wire the remaining balance of my winnings to. I was smarter than that. I had my bank verify the validity of the check through the Federal... read full review »

On 11/12/08 I responded to a trial offer for a bottle of a dietary supplement called Resmedin. The price for this trial offer was $29.95 plus $6.95 for shipping, so I went ahead and ordered it. On 12/12/08 I noticed a pending charge of $89.95 from Resmedin Nutraceuticals, so I called their customer service department and ask what this charge was for. I was told that when I ordered the trial bottle of Resmedin I agreed to join a continuity club, which I was not aware of at the time, I ordered. I told them to please cancel the... read full review »

On Sept 3 2008, we shipped a suitcase weighing about 22kg from Frankfurt, Germany to Sesto Fiorentina, Italy via DHL. The tracking number is: 631338062030. When we asked whether we should insure it, DHL staff assured that there was no need to since the package will be tracked all the way with no chance of getting lost. Two months later, after lots of inquiries made by me about the whereabouts of the suitcase, in November, we were told that the suitcase is lost and that DHL will pay compensation of amount Euros 189.82, which includes Euro... read full review »

Northern tissue has gone to 3 ply.What in the world for. The rolls are shorter and less 266.6 sq.ft. instead of 450 sq.ft PLUS $2.00 more.Another great American ripoff.They do not deserve any business and will not have mine after 50 years as a loyal consumer. "This stinks" any other tissue than can compare to old northern will be just fine. I can pay $4.00 for a gallon of milk but $10.00 for tissue - no way. read full review »

I have been trying to get a hold of their technical support for 3 days. First time on hold 43 minutes, second time 37 minutes and today so far 27 minutes. I spoke to someone in sales (they picked up immediately) and she told me their support is running over one hour hold times!!! FAQ's were not helpful. All this for a $30 part. Just not worth dealing with this company. read full review »

I parked once at Central Parking on West Dallas St. in downtown Houston. I used my debit card at the automated kiosk to pay for my parking. I was charged once on 11/26 for parking, and this charge was valid. My debit card was charged again on 12/3, although I had not parked at Central Parking again. I have called and spoken to Joe Walker three times, and have yet to receive a refund. All I am told is that they are "looking into it". The lesson here is to not use your debit card to pay for parking at Central Parking. If I had used cash they would not have been able to charge me twice. read full review »

Customer service is non-existant. The claims office nearest me closes earlier than they advertise, so one must play a cat and mouse game to get service. If one office closes because of inclement weather, how are their policy holder supposed to get in touch in the event of an emergency? My car was damaged 2.5 months ago and the place it's being repaired at is holding it hostage until they receive payment. Have tried numerous times to get my adjuster and the repair center contact on the same page, but hell for all I know they may be... read full review »

On 11/16/08 I did a web search and found FinalData's website. I had lost some photos and was trying to recover them. I downloaded the demo version of FinalData Standard 2.0, and it recovered a large number of images that it displayed as thumbnails. When I tried to access those photos, it prompted me to purchase the program. When I went to purchase the program, I found the "Photo Retriever" program and purchased that instead. It did not work. So I went back and purchased "FinalData Standard 2.0". A Although... read full review »

I returned an Instyler with the appropriate RMA authorization number on 10/28/08. This offer initially billed ones credit card for 14.00, then, if you didn't like the item, you returned it for full credit. If you kept it, they billed your card for 3 payments of 39.99 plus shipping. Today I called to find out what had happened to my credit. The first horror was that the first time I called, I was caller 96-yes, you heard right 96. The second time I called, I was caller 79. I waited about 40 minutes to speak to someone.

No phone number for this company and not sure if it is a valid company. I can't find complaints against them. read full review »

Short and simple: We were swindled by these pinheads. In our experience, Kelly 'I Steal, Whatever' O'Neal and his gang of con men are nothing more than gutter thieves who will steal anyone they come in contact with blind. They are now so well-know as a criminal enterprise that they are resorting to posting fake 'positive' reviews on consumer complaints websites like this to repair their rightfully trashed reputations. IF YOU ARE AN ARTIST WHO TRIES TO WORK WITH THESE SCUMS, YOU WILL BE SWINDLED! read full review »

I have spent the last year and a half checking out various Thai Dating services and my research is not yet complete, but upon reading a posted letter on the subject on your web site, I felt compelled to write this now in order to potentially save readers of your excellent web site from getting burned, or from paying large sums of money for nothing more than a flashy web site, and a very high priced date, with a lady who is not serious.

After placing 2 calls on my Aliant calling card from Maine, I later received a charges on my phone bill for over $4.00 per minute.

Over 1 year later we received a "second notice" from thier "collection agency" (CSC) threatening my credit rating. If a phone call can not be put threw on a calling card, notice should have to be given AT THAT TIME and an option given to continue the call. As it stands now, they could... read full review »

Flashbyte consistently had poor internet speed despite what they promised as being as fast if not faster than DSL. We paid $150 for the installation and $99 for the equipment deposit.

We have emailed their rude, ignorant and unprofessional representative, Brenda, several times and have still never recieved our $99 refundable deposit.

I went to Michael's to exchange a damaged photo frame. Upon walking to the aisle of where I found the frame, 3 18"x24" frames came crashing down on me! First of all, these huge frame are placed at the very top of the shelves. I did not even touch one, but merely approached it when each one gradually slid down, one hitting the top of my head, the second scrapping my right cheek and ear and the other slamming on my face and me in a state of panic/shock surrounded by broken glass. It took awhile for someone to help me. One of... read full review »

Do not get fooled by their $6.95 adverts in the grocery paper for carpet cleaning!! They do a very bad job!! They manipulate you into buying additional services with false promises.

I had a very bad experience with them after I got my carpets cleaned. Beware and stay away from them!!! read full review »

Notified company in November I wanted to cancel my account. The account was not cancelled, and on Dec 15th my credit card was billed for January 1-31. Company refused to reverse the charge. Company refused to cancel the account until the "unpaid" balance was paid. There was no unpaid balance, and even if there were, it was fraudulant since the account should have been cancelled. No appeal, no manager I could speak to, no flexibility, refused to deal with the issue. read full review »
