Goldstar Van Lines
August 29, 2006
Goldstar Van Lines picked-up my household belongings (clothes, bed, linens, kitchenware, etc) on July 22 in Garden Grove, CA to be delivered to Cambridge,MA. As per the contract, estimated delivery date was to be between Aug 12 and Aug 22. It is already Aug 26th and my items have not been delivered. I called them several times and talked to the supervisor, Michelle. As of last week, Aug 18th, my belongings had not left their point of origin, San Jose, CA. Goldstar Van Lines has never called me to warn me of any delays in shipment. On 10 Aug, I... read full review »

Hughes.net
August 29, 2006
I had my email under Direcway for 4 years until somebody, without my consent and without amending my service contract, switched it to "Hughes.net." Now I cannot relay email, nor can I use another ISP to receive email. Under Direcway, I could use a local ISP which was on all of my stationary and internet accounts. This ISP had an excellent Spam and virus control which I could set the sensitivity and delete the spam myself. Now, I have no idea if there is any spam or virus control with Hughes.net because they have no settings for it. In... read full review »

SuperPages.com
August 28, 2006
I was contacted by a Superpages.com salesman who lead me to believe that I could try Superpages for three months for the $15 per month I had been paying for a Yellow page listing. If I was not satisfied I could discontinue the service. If I wanted to keep the service it would cost $111.00 per month. He told me there was no contractual obligation. I subsequently found out that SuperPages expected a one year commitment and has been billing me. They have refused to terminate the billing. I have written the Chairman of Verizon twice and the matter... read full review »

United Cleaners
August 28, 2006
"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 »

Believe it or not, I just got served by this rip-off loser of a company. We sent back their equipment after they failed to provide a copy of the lease after repeated requests, when they finally sent one, it was someone elses lease! My husband sent back their sub standard equipment with return request receipt. He also called them several times after asking for a letter stating that they received the equpiment; they refused. We have our USPS poof of receipt by them. The critical point is that they specifically told me that it was not a long... read full review »

Vacation Reservation Center

I received a phone call yesterday from Vacation Reservation Center. The man's name was Francis O'Neal. He was giving me 3 free vacations... One to the Bahamas, one to Orlando, and one to Williamsburg, Va. I could bring up to 5 people. Sounds good so far... He told me that they were in business for 25 years and they were legit... It was a time share and I would have to sit and listen to their presentation for about 20 minutes. Not a problem?? It sounded too good to be true... At the end of the conversation, he asked for my... read full review »

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.

Monitronics
August 24, 2006
Three "representatives" from other Alarm System Companies have visited us indicating Monitronics, Inc. is no longer servicing Puerto Rico. Therefore, if this is true, Monitronics had not being monitoring our homes since.... I do not know when, but am working to find out. My reason to believe this is true is that whenever the alarm is activated, nobody calls to check it out. The few times they ever responded, although I have asked for a techician to visit us, nobody has come. Thanks, Aida Company details: Monitronics, International, Inc. 12801 N.

Well the scammers are at it again! We own two furniture stores in Southern California and recently received "a cleaning card" for our credit card machine... we didn't order any cleaning card.

I found Hammond Mortgage on bankrate.com this spring. I was relocating to Georgia from Virginia, and my Virginia condo was under contract, due to close April 17.

Vartech called my husband about 3 years ago and quoted him a monthly bill of about $29 plus tax. We were currently paying close to $40, so he decided to switch. We got a bill the next month for $42 + tax. Well over the quote and more than what we were paying with our former company. My husband called to complain and was told they don't offer a package for $29. My husband explained that he had a taped line and Vartech was commiting fraud by giving out false information to obtain business. They agreed to lower the price. The next month... read full review »
