NEC Electricals Fridge
August 16, 2008
Bought fridge Nov 2005, Had problems ever since it has stopped completely even freezer section. Have had to get it fixed twice and while waiting for parts i had to use multiple eskies which was a complete hassle. And now all three of my shelves have BROKEN!! I haven't complained about anything as yet but now the three shelves will cost approx$200 the fridge is not quite 3 years old. The fridge model is FRT480 i don't think it should be any expense to me or at least half the cost. Thank you for your time Rachael Watson. read full review »

This is my impotent complaint-rant against Apple Computers. It is posted here because Apple Computers doesn't want to hear about complaints. However, in the very odd chance one of their telereps actually addressing a complaint, the odds are even worse that you will receive even remotely decent service. The following is a tale of mass incompetence--not for the faint of heart : July 20th, 2007: I order a MacBookPro online directly from Apple Computers.

Plimus
August 10, 2008
Complaints abound on this company! I ordered a download program that "guarantees to repair corrupt files" if you can see the preview in one of their windows. I could see one page of the file in their window, and ordered it for $39.95. Moments later, i got the invoice for double that! The program did not work, I immediately (within hours) asked for my money back, deleted their program (in case they use it to gather information from my computer), and deleted the corrupt file. Plimus sends a fancy "Refund recovery Action" via... read full review »

Avon
July 29, 2008
I signed on to become a Representative for Avon. It was only $10.00 and seemed like a great deal because you order product first and pay on a billing system. (Other companies you pay lots of money upfront). You attend meetings with other reps and learn about sales. I found out where Avon makes money. Selling to Reps. They offer this really great deal, so much money off if you obligate yourself to a certain number of a product. For example I thought I could sell 50 perfumes. They tell you, " Hey it's no big deal, if you don't sell... read full review »
