Companies That Let Us Down

the Guru · 27-07-2011, 07:09

We have all seen Watchdog, we have all been disgusted with many company policies and procedures.

I am looking for information on Companies near or far who have let you down, given you poor service, poor value for money, over priced products, delivery problems, poor after sales support etc....

Please give a brief description of the problem, the company, location and any information you feel is important. Anything of a sensitive nature, please feel free to email me.

A very cheery first post. Welcome to the forum...

I think this thread may need moderating very soon. Just a hunch.

We have discussed this before here -

I don't think the mods were comfortable with the idea because it could be abused by businesses denigrating their rivals.

It would be a shame if people can not post an honest view, without prejudice....

Read Margaret's post again, by the way you came to this site, had me wondering what were your ulterior motives, you see over the years we've seen plenty of wise men barring gifts, and we also know the old saying there's no such thing as a free lunch, your not telling me that you will be providing this "ombudsman service" out of the goodness of you heart, are you

Like others i would like to know a damn site more about 1, you,2 your purpose. reason being yer a total stranger to me n probably most of the members, so yer opening post is highly suspicious to my reasoning.

Ok, first of all I can see some very sceptical people here. Quite harsh to a new user.... I'm not selling anything, just looking for feedback for a web site that may be developed... As for the goodness of my heart, you have no idea...
Its a shame that people cant ask for help on forums any more, I actually thought that's what these things were for, bringing the community together.... I guess not...

Wynonie Harris · 27-07-2011, 15:58

Guru, what do you really expect when you start off with a first post like that?

Tell you what, why don't you start again? Introduce yourself in the intro section, tell us a bit about yourself, even put a few posts in other sections about things that interest you. Maybe then we'd be a bit more responsive to your request!

If yeh had been around longer than 2 mins, yeh would understand the skepticism, theres been quite a few oer the years, n if yeh can't grasp that fact,i feel sorry fer yeh.

and of course this web site "which may develop" and bring the community together as no ulterior motive, as has been said, if, instead of a very inane first post, you'd have gone about things the right way, you may just have got peoples attention, but you may notice there are quite a few people on this site who have been around a while, and are well educated at the university of life, as I said in an earlier post there's no such thing as a free lunch
