SCAMMED BUY A AIRPORT THAT WAS SUPPOSE TO HAVE HAD A BABY CAPUHIN MONKEY NAMED TYRA

Company: cameroon airport
Address : 123 vicky road km, douala, south west 237, Cameroon

i recently purchased a baby capuhin monkey named tyra from a individual in cameroon by the name of camela magan. i sent to hime $350.00 and the rest of the money that was requested from me came from cameroon airlines which was $1550.00. the airport emailed me everyday and telephoned my home several times a day. some of the emails said i was a heartless person and other emails from them stated that i was in a confused state of mind. the manager of the pets department said he felt sorry for me and my daughters because this was all the money we had for them for christmas and we had to borrow some of this money, and he felt sorry for tyra so he wanted to help me and he would make sure this was the last time i would be asked for money and that there would not be anymore complications. tyra was supposedly sent to france 2 times and sent back to cameroon because she didn't have a vaccination in which i paid for $250.00 and the 2nd time was for the transfer of ownership did not have my name on it and i paided for that also. the last time i heard from cameroon airline was december 26, 2006. if have contacted the american embassy in cameroon and the united states international air travel complaint, if there is anyone out there that has trouble with cameroon airlines i would like to hear from you because i'm going to fight this legally and try to put a stop to the wrong doings of animals for sale in cameroon.

Company: Memteck
Address : 770 West Ferry Suite 24A, Buffalo, New York 14222, United States

I ordered one piece of memory from a company called memteck or bestcompdeals or 321 Electronics from their website, www.memteck.com. The very next day I thought to have a look on my Bank account and was surprised that promptly charged my credit card on the same day. Now it is more than weeks and I have not received the item. I tried to call them on various occasion but of no use as I never got a single reply for the same. I have also email them numerous times but yet to hear from them. I remember that shipping was promised to occur next day, and come via USPS with tracking number but till date no such events occurred.
I put a stop payment on my Credit Card, still no response from company. So please never order anything from this bogus company as they are completely rip-off and fraud.

In future I will never purchase anything from this bogus company as they are totally fraud

Company: Columbia Telecommunications Group
Address : Fry's Electronics, P.O. Box 4065, Farmingdale, New York 11735, United States

I purchased the two way radios from Fry's in Las Vegas on November 28, 2004 and I was told that there was a $25 rebate and a rebate receipt was issued. On December 2, 2004, I mailed in all the forms for my rebate. I have contacted the company on numerous occasions and also left messages-mailed on numerous occasions, and was told I'd get a response but till date I have not got any response. At last I called Fry's to get a direct number, and spoke with a woman named Nancy. On the very next day I contacted her and sent in all the correct forms and UPC numbers. On one occasion she told me she would process my rebate. Then when I still did not get my rebate.
I called again Nancy on May, 2004. She confirming for the same she told me that they have had a problem getting paid by Fry's, and put all these rebates on hold. So I immediately called Fry's in order to confirm what Nancy told me and they reply me back that was not true. On hearing this from them I was very upset and came to know that have cheated me. I tried to call back the number for Nancy again today, and was told I reached the reception desk, and that Nancy could now be reached at the 800 number. I immediately called the 800 number and was got a message that the mailbox was full. So I called the other number again, and was told that she can leave a message for Nancy and she'd get back to me. At last I came to know that they just keep giving the run around and I cannot give up for the same. So in future I will never purchase anything from this bogus company as they are totally fraud.

I know that it was totally my mistake only as I already knew about them that they are fraud company then also I have purchased Zenith 27" TV from them.They said it was in gurantee but now they are not willing to exchange it.

I am waiting for their apology letter or either refund or compensation for the same

Company: CARPETRIGHT
Address : PALACE GROUNDS RETAIL PARK, PALACE GROUNDS PARK, HAMILTON, STRATHCLYDE United Kingdom

I moved to new house in June, I ordered carpets for the whole house from Carpetright. I paid �4,000 with them. The carpets were supposed to be fitted before we move but due to some quarrel among the builder and fitters he would not let them on the site. Therefore we lived on the concrete.
They had many problems with fitting. The size of the carpet did not match and we had paid them already for the extra carpet. When we complain why the carpets fit, we were threatened that they will leave work without completing. The carpet fitters doubtless got wrong measures and left glue on the skirting boards, doors and cut into the skirting boards they had brought dog with the, in van for transporting carpets. They clearly mentioned before we bought it home that they do not take old carpets from customers as they contain germs in it. But readily pass germs to our new carpet from their dogs to customers. My wife is asthmatic and have allergy with animals hair or even dust. They left our work half and went for their other appointment in middle for which I have canceled an appointment. They do not have respect for the property I own and damaged my TV which cost me �75 to repair.
There were also manufacturing faults which were found later. I complaint about my problem to the owner of the company but never received any response. I am waiting for their apology letter or either refund or compensation for the same.

Disappointed customer of Sotto Sotto!

Company: Sotto Sotto
Address : 313 N. Highland Ave., Atlanta, GA 30307, United States

August 28 was my father's birthdays. My sister and I decided to give him surprise treat and take him to Sotto Sotto, restaurant in our area. I had heard many good things and dishes that are available in this restaurant. I was fancied by the grilled fish, my friend told me of.
When we arrive their, the restaurant was crowded and hence had wait for 15-20 minutes. After that our waiting was over and got a table near the entrance only. I ordered the expensive grilled fish my friend had told and my father and my sister ordered their menu. I was horrid when the waiter bang glasses on our table. But we overlooked it. Serving was too slow and we hardly could see waiters serving. Hmm.so when my order came to my amaze the fish seems to be the left over of other patron. So I called him again and demanded for full fish. He gave me filleted full fish after asking him for two times. After we finished our dinner he picks up the dish of my sister and put the bones of chicken to my plate. At this I got angry and ask him what he doing. He simply said, �You don't mind if I put it in my plate'. He thought we were related and I should not mind her germs!
My credited card was charged for extra 20% gratuity!!! I paid it at that time as didn't want to spoil my dad's evening, but I contacted the manager to complaint regarding the fish, horrid service, and gratuity. He was too rude but thank god he at least he offered refund from the gratuity I paid. To date I never received my refund nor apology letter from Sotto Sotto. Disappointed customer of Sotto Sotto!

I avoid accommodating in Hilton property

Company: Hilton Memphis
Address : 939 Ridge Lake Boulevard, Memphis, Tennessee 38120, United States

I often travel to other state for business and stayed in many hotels so far away from my home. I never had such experience I had with Hotel Hilton. Last time I was in Memphis for my business I made reservation with hotel Hilton. And this I made through agent who look after my traveling from long time.
When reach Memphis I went to Hotel Hilton. The manager said their no reservation done on from my name. It was surprising! How it could be possible! My credit card was already charged. I told him about it. My agent is reliable every time he does accommodation in different locations. I was then given a parlor room where there was nothing except sofa. I had to stay somehow for one night and next day I was going to change my staying place. I was left with no option! I pulled the sofa to sleep. I don't have habit of sleeping on sofa, I couldn't sleep whole night. Next day experienced back ache for the reason. I carried my luggage next day left that place and got accommodation in other hotel. I never had such problem with hotels other then Hilton property. When I returned from my trip, I written letter to the Guest assistance department stating my problems and charges that I paid. To date I never received any letter for apology or refund.
No matter, I have to travel and continued. I think they have cultural problem! I avoid accommodating in Hilton property.

I paid for shoes and returned it. I did not get a new pair or a refund. Shoe parlor is a scam

Company: Shoe Parlor
Address : 851 7th Ave, New York, NY 10019, United States

I purchase shoes from Aerosoles, I find shoes comfortable and also reliable here. The other day I came across Shoe parlor, sounds good, I ordered a pair of Frye boots from internet. I though it will be better if I will personally call and confirm my order. So I did. A lady picks up my call; I ask told her my size and color which I want. She asks to hold for a minute and got a pair in hand. She describes the shoe I find it was not what it was advertised on internet. So I told her. In return I was told that my boots will be arriving next day. I then receive two emails from then, on for confirmation of my order and other about the shipping information.
Next day at around 10.30 am I got the parcel in which my shoes were there. I was eager to put them on my feet so I opened the box. It was not the color I ordered for and was tight to my feet. I put them on and walk on my carpet I let them on feet for about an hour. Next my husband took me to the restaurant when I noticed that there was a big cut at the edge and hill of other shoe was loose glue was clearly seen. I quickly returned them to shoe parlor writing a note. After one week I received shoe parcel. I didn't open it but call shoe parlor. The lady said it was damaged and that is the reason they sent it back, counter replied it was only the reason I returned them. Then she handles the phone the supervisor. He told me that they never sell defective shoe and he himself inspected. The next moment he said it was directly sent by Frye. Now this was contradicting. I dispute on this point he was not able to answer so he called manager.
I found manager of same category as too repeated the same story and denied to take shoes back. I learned a good lesson. I will not shop again from them. They send defective goods and not ready to possession of defective goods. They have no inspection policy or guarantee! I paid $250 for that pair and didn't get refund on demanding.

I will never believe now as these people were frauds who lied to earn money by wrong means

Company: HYATT REGENCY ROCHESTER
Address : 125 EAST MAIN STREET, ROCHESTER, NY United States

We had visited this place with one of our friends who were already a member for this hotel. After the dinner we were asked by the staff if we wanted to join the member ship and were explained all the facilities given the best facility which attracted me one day stay in the hotel this was an excellent offer, I insisted my husband to take the membership and he did accordingly it was the month of January and the date was 25th,it was the membership for one year. During the year we many times visited the place with friends and sometimes all alone, many times we were called to finalize the day we would like to avail the free stay facility, but because of something or the other we were not able to make up. It was then January had arrived and we had to use the facility so we asked the manager as it was our wedding anniversary on 26th and could we just delay a day he said that he would just check with the reservation and he said that it was fine and they offered us the stay ,but after our stay we were told to pay the rent which was not suppose to as it was free to the members but we were told that our membership expires on 25th and today is 27th we explained that this matter was talked to the manager before the stay but when the manager was called he refused that no such promise was done this was ridiculous I was shaken as the terrif was too much and it was difficult to do so but all our attempts were all in vain and we had to pay to avoid unnecessary scene in the hotel. I will never believe now as these people were frauds who lied to earn money by wrong means.

They are liars and should be punished for it

Company: BOWW DOWN AUTO SOUND
Address : 1980 HARBOR BLVD, COSTA MESA, CALIFORNIA 92663, United States

I had purchased a car and wanted to purchase my stereo equipment for the new car, I read an advertisement which was indeed very attractive as it was giving life time warranty so I went to this shop an believe it, it was the worst experience of my life, I purchased the equipment thinking that it was for the life time warranty, this was the statement that forced me to buy the equipment from them since they were the authorized dealer. But after few days my speakers said bye that is they blew off so I took them to the dealer as it was in the warranty, but they made me pay fees for them to ship them back to the company for the repair, after 4 days I returned to find what are they doing they told me that the company as not yet repaired the equipment and not yet received I was only given a receipt, after 2 days I again visited and they asked for the receipt unfortunately I had lost it and was not able to find, they said as the receipt was not there I was quoted that I am assed out!. This was an unprofessional behavoiur and then was just playing with the emotions and attracted the people for the bold statement which is not actually right they charge for shipping so much that the cost of the repair is also out. I have purchased so many systems for my old car and have never been treated unfair they are liars and should be punished for it.

Never try them, read to know is how they are running their business

Company: CAR STEREO CITY
Address : 17825 SW TUALATION VALLEY HWY, BEAVERTON, OREGON 97006, United States

I am a truck driver and had recently purchased some equipment for my truck. I had purchased the alarm and the back up camera. I had no time to install them it was when I was on the move for some work I had top halt for the delay of the material when I thought to install my equipments in the truck so I went to the shop to have them program the alarm. At first I was told that the alarm was not the 564t alarm and that I was given a wrong box for the alarm I brought. After showing the receipt they stating the 564t they offered to put the correct alarm in my truck, they charged me exorbitant for this it was $100. Anyways I had also the back up camera and wanted to install it by re[placing the old camera, instead of replacing the old camera with the new one they rewired the old camera which created a short circuit in the main head unit. This was all their fault as they were not doing what I was asking for I insisted that the fault was all theirs and that they should do the need full, so they promised that the head unit will be replaced and that will be free and see their guts after the replacement of the head unit they were installing the same old camera, now the time was running short and I had already received the call that the material w2as ready and I had to deliver urgently so I left but I had to bring the truck 3 times to the shop to install the equipment the way I wanted, but my request was never fulfilled. Things went even worst when I left the shop something else was wrong. This had blown my patience and I decided to complain to the regional manager at the car stereo city and more worst that he said I had to pay for the fixing. My truck was all fine I never had any problems it was because of the untrained staff the matter had complicated and I had to suffer. I have decided that this matter be taken to the attorney general at car service, never try them this is how they are running their business.

I did not expect this from Burger King

Company: Burger King
Address : 1027 Union Ave, Memphis, TN United States

I had gone to Burger king day before yesterday. I had gone with my friend to meet up with her as I had not met her for almost 2 yrs. We had gone there for lunch. I gave our order, but the person at the counter didn't look like he was enjoying doing his job. He apparently did not hear what I had ordered. I ordered for cokes, fries and 2 cheeseburgers. He went and got us 2 kids meals. I told him to the order that he brought as he had already entered it in the machine. He gave us what we ordered. Then when I went ahead to pay the bill I noticed that he had not cancelled the order he had made a mistake on. I went and asked him what was going on. He told me that I had ordered for it and turned the entire thing upside down. I asked for the manager. I explained to him what had happened. He said I must have ordered only the burgers and fries and whatever but I had no proof of that. I couldn't say a word after that. I paid and left. I was totally ripped-off they are a total scam. I did not expect this from Burger King.

STARLUCK CASINO SCAMS

Company: STARLUCK CASINO
Address : 145 Younge St. Suite 330, Toronto, United States

On Dec. 22, 2006, I received a bogus check from STARLUCK CASINOS.

Not admitting to being a total idiot, I waited until my bank opened and had them look at the check -- which to my eye looked real.

If you get one of the these checks, look at the logo. You will see the letters and the art design are of different hues of blue or black. That is because they took the red and black logo off the internet and placed it on the check with photoshop in black and white. (The red hue will appear grayish in black and white.)

On my check, the words PAY TO THE ORDER OF was misspelled to read
PAY TO THE ORDE R OF which does not fly with most banks.

You may also find at the top right hand corner, the words US DOLLAR DRAFT (official check). If the check was issued in the US. the check woud not read US DOLLAR DRAFT and yet the check says at the lower left hand corner that it is payable through HSBC BANK USA LOS ANGELES.

One might suggest that if you live in the LA, you go immediately to the HSBC BANK located there and cash it. I have called HSBC BANK in Los Angeles at 11:30 am on Thursday and there is no answer. Nobody picks up.

Another suggestion lead by greed is to go to the HSBC BANK in person and cash the check. But remember, if you cash the check, the bad guys have your signature.

Calls to The Publishers Clearing House, who should really be aware and go after these guys, go unanswered. Theft is being done in their name and they don't care. So watch yourself.

On the back of the check you will find no phone number of the banks to which you or the bank can call if there is a problem with the check.

I will never order or eat at KFC

Company: Fried Chicken
Address : 13253 Woodward Ave, Highland Park, MI United States

Last month I was driving with my kids to my mother's house. We were going there for a small vacation. It was a 3 hr drive. When we had crossed half the way almost an hour and a half we stopped by at Mc Donald's to have something to eat as all of us were starving. we went in through the �Drive Thru'. There the queue was quite long coz something wasn't working there. There were almost 20 cars in front of me. But I had o choice I had to wait coz the next snack bar was quite far, this I came to know through a local. So I waited in line. Finally it was my turn to order.
I ordered for 2 buckets of drumsticks. The girl at the counter told me that she could give me only one coz there were many people in line. I had two kids and me just 1 bucket would do no good. I tried to explain to her that I was ordering only for 2 not 10 that shouldn't be a problem. What difference does it make if I buy it or someone else the price is gonna be the same. This is the dumbest thing I have ever come across. The office where I work at has such big orders but then they have no problem no matter what hour of the day it is. I will never order or eat at KFC especially in Woodward Ave, Highland Park, MI. this was the height of stupidity.

The most hilarious experience I ever had

Company: Mc Donald's
Address : 21962 Springdale Rd, Easton, KS 66020, United States

I and my friend had gone shopping. On our way back we starving and tired. We wanted to sit as our legs were paining and our stomachs were growling. We decided to go to Mc Donald's and have some fires and coke and leave as it was almost nearing dinner time. We ordered for 2 large fries 2 cokes and 2 Salad's. I gave the cashier a $50 bill and some change as the bill came up to $27.50. I had given her $7.50 change and I was waiting or her to return my $30. Well, she did not give me a dime. I asked her for the change, she very arrogantly replied, "you are the one who has to give change". I guess she thought I gave her a $20 bill. I explained to her that I gave her a $50 bill and I wanted my change back.
She refused to do so. I asked to speak to the manager. I told him what had happened. In stead of letting me speak he started lecturing me on hoe truthful and honest this employee meaning the cashier was. I told the manager if he did not believe me he could go and check the CC TV and see if im lying. But he did not listen to a word I said and asked me to pay the $7.50. Then it struck me that I had given her the change I don't owe them any money. Then the manager turned the whole thing around and said that I had given a $19 bill and some change I had to give him $10 more. I couldn't help laughing on the manager's face; I told him that I to return my $30 and I would leave the place and never come back again. He paid me the $30 and asked me to leave as I started yelling at the cashier at how careless they were and anyone could get fooled like that. This is the most hilarious experience I ever had.

This is not the first time I have received poor customer service from MSN

Company: MSN ISP Service
Address : 1344 Redmond Way, Redmond, Washington 98052, United States

In March of 2005 I decided to purchase a digital camera. Best Buy had a deal that if you signup with MSN for three years they would pay up to $400 for a digital camera. I had been on AOL for several years and never i had a problem. I figured how different could MSN be. So I signed the contract and went home with my digital camera. I canceled my AOL Service and setup my MSN account. That's when all problems started for me. I couldn't even get signed on. I called MSN technical support and the guy told me I had to pick another username. I did that but I had connectivity problems just the same. I had called technical support on several occasions. I always got the same reply. There are server problems in that area or the technical guy would make me run through all kinds of procedures. None of them worked. I had started a business and my clients could not get their work through to me or I couldn't get connected to receive it.
People would tell me they e-mailed me and I would never get it. The tech people at MSN treated me like a fool. I put up with this for 6 months until I could take it no longer. I spoke with another tech person and when I realized I was just getting the run around I had enough. I cancelled my Internet service with MSN and signed right back on with AOL.
It is working fine as previously it was working. Several months after cancellation, I got a letter from MSN stating that I owe them $460. For what crappie Internet service that I no longer have? Their tech support people have no clue. They are rude and out of their insecurity treat you like you have no clue. When I called to have the Internet service canceled no one said I was going to owe them money. When I called today about this bill I received, the customer service representative told me that in the contract I signed it said that they didn't guarantee connectivity. Internet requires connectivity. That was the most unexpected answer I have heard yet. Then she told me because I had paid for six months of service they would drop the debt down to $300 and some odd dollars. To top it off they billed me under a username I wasn't even able to use. I told her I wasn't paying it. She told me I would hear from a third party. I told her I wanted to talk to someone over her but she said there was no one. This is not the first time I have received poor customer service. In the past I have never given anyone a hard time but this was definitely the worst customer service I have ever received and not only that they want me to pay for it. This situation was absolutely ridiculous especially when you rely on the Internet for your business.

I have suffered a lot due to Car Stereo's mistake

Company: Car Stereo City
Address : 17825 SW Tualatin Valley Hwy, Beaverton, Oregon 97006, United States

In September, 2006 I purchased stereo equipment, alarm and back up camera for my truck. I purchased a Hornet 564T alarm. The installer installed an alarm that has less features and is less than what I paid for the 564T. When I brought the truck to the shop to have them program the alarm for me they told me that I don't have a 564T and they gave me the wrong box for the alarm I bought. After I showed them the receipt stating I purchased the 564T they offered to put the correct alarm in my truck for a fee of $100.I also purchased a brand new Pioneer Z1 head unit and a back up camera to replace my old camera that somebody cut the wiring on. Instead of replacing the old camera with the new one I purchased, they rewired my old one which fried my head unit. They did replace the head unit for free but still installed the old camera instead of the one I bought. I have had my truck in the shop 3 times with the promise that they will have my equipment installed the way I requested and it's still not done right. My stereo has Voice Command and they did not hook up the microphone. I have yet to walk out of this shop with everything I requested done. Even worse than that every time I leave the shop something else is wrong. I have attempted to resolve this directly with the Regional Manager at Car Stereo City and each time he tells me I need to pay for his guys to fix their mistakes. And I am half tempted to stand outside their shop with a sign that tells everybody how they run their business. They are not suppose to charge me to rectify their mistake why I should pay for their mistake they should do this free of cost. Actually they have to apologize for their mistake and compensate me as I have suffered a lot due to their mistake.

I will never ever order anything from Advance beauty Sol

Company: Advance Beauty Solutions
Address : True Ceramic Pro, P.o. Box 55089 Or 1190 Trademark Drive, Reno, CA 91413, United States

O.k. I am so happy that I found this site because I am not the only one that Advance Beauty has ripped off. Well the same thing happened to me as the other guy who got ripped off. I ordered the True Ceramic Pro in November 2005. When I received it, I did not like it, the plates were clearly "painted" red. I never used this item because I was disappointed with it. I used the return sticker and mailed it back to TCP but I should have looked at the sticker clearly because the return sticker had the wrong return address and the package ended up coming back to my address. I paid again to resend this back to TCP and then I emailed their customer service and asked for my refund. They replied by saying that they were resending me another one. (?)
I then called and pressed 1 because that is the only way to talk to a live representative. They said that my refund was being processed and would take 7-14 business days. I called back 15 days later and they told me that it was stopped and they don't know why. Then they said that another refund would be issued and back in my account 7-14 business days. Well it has been over two months and I haven't received a refund yet. Also for the past month they have been "updating" their phone system and will not accept any calls.
I will never ever order anything from them.

AVOID Budget Rent a Car

Company: budget.com
Address : Budget Rent A Car System, Inc., 6 Sylvan Way, Parsippany, NJ 7054, United States

I know rental car companies are of hidden charges, so I read my contract well and signed carefully. Before getting the car, they gave me two extra copies to sign and it is only later I find that the extra copies were actually different from the one I signed first. The version I ended up with in my hand had several differences - a daily "highway helper" charge had been added, a one-time fee for an upgrade had be changed to a daily fee... but my initials are there and I don't have a leg to stand on as they only have the second version of what I signed. Fortunately the little rip offs only add up to $40 or so, but multiply that by everyone who walks in their door... I guess you can tell a scamming company when you call corporate HQ and the first option is for collections. Seems some have been scammed for many more dollars than I was. AVOID Budget Rent a Car

Ticketmaster.com doesn't honor their promises

Company: Ticketmaster.com
Address : C/o Legal Department, Ticketmaster, L.L.C., 8800 Sunset Blvd., West Hollywood, CA 90069, United States

On March 31,2006, a friend and I ordered pre-sale tickets from Ticketmaster.com for a concert on April 29. We went through a lot of trouble to be among the first buyers, and we got great seats in the fifth row. We bought the tickets using my debit card, we received a confirmation e-mail, and the money was taken from the account. We assumed everything was going as planned. Few days later, we received an email saying that the billing address on the card was different from the mailing address that we gave them. This email had come about a week earlier. We didn't have Internet access in either of our homes at that time. We began calling and e-mailing Ticketmaster to try and rectify the problem. We soon realized that we had been ripped off by ticketmaster. Ticketmaster had voided our tickets with no notification .They claimed that the bank would not verify the address for them. When we called the bank, however, to find out what address they had we were baffled because there is only one address where we receive mail, we found out that the bank had the exact same billing address that we gave to Ticketmaster. When I called their customer service number, very nicely they explained that we had lost our tickets. I asked them if there was any way that we could be placed in similar seats or if we could be notified if any similar seats went on sale by this time the only seats available are on the second balcony, about sixty rows behind the ones we originally had. I rudely told in several different ways that this was my entire fault, that they weren't liable for it, and that they didn't have to do anything to make it right.
It seems that the main function of their customer support is to explain to the customer that they are wrong. They told me that this policy is in place to protect the customer; if the addresses don't match, they assume that it is fraud. Why then, if they assumed that our order was fraudulent, did they take the payment out of the bank account? And why, if they care so much about protecting their customers, do they care so little about making the same customers happy? They have promised to refund our money in ten days. Strangely enough, it only took them 15 hours to charge the account. But it took almost 3 days to get my refund. Ticketmaster has a monopoly over ticket sales in our area. They obviously don't feel the need to honor their promises or to please their customers. But at any cost we wanted to attend the concert so we booked the ticket again through ticketmaster.com as there was no other way out but this time we got the seats approximately fifty rows behind our first seat.

Thane international cheats their customers by selling their junk products for a high price

Company: www.thane.com
Address : Thane International, 78-140 Calle Tampico, La Quinta, California 92253, United States

In September, 2005 I ordered a Flavor Wave oven after watching an infomercial on TV. The company that manufactures this item is Thane International. I received my order in about 6 weeks and put it away to give to my wife for Christmas.
On Christmas day she opened it and we were excited to try this new product out so we brought in a frozen chicken from the freezer to cook. Well it is now 2006 and we are still waiting for our chicken to cook. As soon as we turned on the oven the fan started up and the cooking light came on and within 2 seconds it burned out. After Christmas I called the company to complain and was told they would send a replacement but I would have to pay for the replacement of part. After complaining that it did not work when I took it out of the box I was told that I would not have to pay but that it would have to be backordered.
On 12th January, I still had not received the replacement part so I sent an email to Thane International at www.thane.com. I felt that if they could not ship my replacement part immediately that I should receive a refund. They refused stating that the 30 day guarantee had expired. Naturally it expired since I bought it as a gift and put it away unopened until Christmas Day. I have no doubt that they could ship me an entire new oven if they cared anything about customer service. But they would rather hassle me. In addition to the oven I also received free of charge except for shipping and handling charges a food chopper. One of the features of the food chopper was an apple corer. Well we cored exactly one apple on the 2nd apple it too broke. Sadly there are no controls these days over the junk that is being shipped out of China; Bottom line is I want my money back or my replacement shipped now. I was not expecting such kind of customer service from this people. This company is fraud. They cheat their customers; they just sell their junk products for a high value.

I learned a lesson, I will never shop at best buy again

Company: BestBuy.com
Address : P.O. Box 949, Minneapolis, MN 55440, United States

On September 11, 2005, I ordered two music CD's and one game CD from BestBuy.com. On September 12, I was notified by email that the items have already been shipped. However, each of the CD's was shipped to a different address. There had only been one address listed on my account. Both the billing address and the shipping address on the account were the same. But in checking my account, the addresses were changed after the order was placed. I immediately contacted BestBuy.com by phone. I asked why the order was shipped to the three addresses but BestBuy.com had no answer. I requested that the order be cancelled, but was told that was not possible as it had
already shipped. I asked for credit for the CD's not sent to me but again was told that was not possible. I was told I had to wait for thirty days and then file a claim for lost items. I contacted my credit card company and placed a dispute on the charge from BestBuy.com. When the one CD shipped to the correct address did arrive, I refused delivery and requested that it be returned to the sender. I again contacted BestBuy.com again after about one week and asked for a refund. I explained that the one CD was returned and that the other two were lost as they were sent to the wrong addresses. I was given a case number and was told I would be contacted after it was investigated. I also sent an email to the security department of BestBuy.com requesting an explanation as to what may have happened. I am still waiting a reply to both the case investigation and the security inquiry. After about two weeks, I received a credit to my credit card for one of the CD's. After, a month I received the rest of the credit for the full amount. The final credit was in the amount of $25.18. I assumed the case was closed. I have not ordered again from BestBuy.com. However, when checking my credit card balance, BestBuy.com charged my card again for the amount of $25.18 on February 24, 2006. I again called BestBuy.com and was given a case number again. I was told I would be contacted within twenty four hours. I also contacted my credit card company and put another dispute on this charge. It took BestBuy.com eight days to contact me. They said the charge would be refunded, but that it would take 60 to 90 days to appear on my credit card account. I am still waiting for this credit, now being March 27, 2006 throughout this deal, I asked BestBuy.com how these order and billing errors occurred. I was always told that they have no idea how the changes and charges to my account occurred. I asked if there was a security problem but was told it wasn't a security problem. I then asked how security could be ruled out if the cause was not determined. All that BestBuy.com would say was that it wasn't related to security. I learned a lesson, I will never shop at best buy again.
