I ran across an ad about a bracelet and I ordered one. Almost two weeks later, I received a mosquito-repellent watch. It was a cheap dime-store watch that I have thrown better watches away. I contacted their customer support and after taking pictures and resending emails three times they agreed to send what I had ordered and to keep the watch. Another two weeks went by and I received the second package and to my surprise, they sent another mosquito-repellent watch. Now they want me to return both watches and pay for shipping before they refund my money. Thank goodness I have a wonderful bank that agreed that I had been taken and returned the money I spent. So look before you leap and check these companies on SiteJabber before you trust a company to treat you right.

I only rated this a 1 because it's one those "try it and while you are, we're packing the next order that we thought you'd pay for." If these products are legit why do they have to con you into keep taking shipments? Just sell me my two week supply and if they work, I will order more. Now that is the honest way to do business.
Cheers, ya'll

I love this razor and have used it for a couple of years now but, my job took me to South Korea and I can't reorder on line because they do not recognize APO addresses.
So, now I either stay up real late or get up real early in order to call customer service and try to get them to ship another order. ToughBlade, there many of our Service members that would appreciate you including them in your online ordering, just sayin'

After watching Brett Favre hock these razors, I ordered one and got the surprise of my life. Everything they claim in the commercial was true. For less than $20 a year, I get a clean and comfortable shave every time. It is the closest I've found to compare with the ole Atra razors only with three blades. That's is the only thing that I don't care for, they could have only used two blades. I will be reordering again when I get down to two refills.

Heard the ad on the radio for a free sample of the razor and other products so, I went to the website only to find out that in order to get the free samples, you must sign up for monthly shipments that are not free. So, if you want to have your razors shipped to you (for a fee) every month, this may be for you. Personally I would prefer to try the samples to see if I wanted to start a subscription for their products.

Sorry for any confusion here, Chuck. While you're right that the free trial does trigger an ongoing subscription that begins a few weeks later, you can modify or altogether cancel that subscription at any time (including before the first paid shipment ever goes out). So you're never locked into anything.

Fox news is what I watch here and no problems at all. I just tap the small arrow on the right of the picture and I don't have to keep up with the chatting idiots.

  • MySnoringSolutions

Snoring is a problem for me, so much so, that my wife sleeps in another room because of it. Therefore, I am willing to try anything that will eliminate my snoring short of surgery. This site came to me via pop-up which I normally delete and go on but, I was desperate to find a solution. Once, after reading about it, I closed the site only to get another pop-up cutting the price to $79 and change. So, I do like a bargain, I ordered it.
When it came I opened the package not knowing what to really expect but, there it was. An elastic band covered with material that appeared to cost about $5 to make. There was a CD disc enclosed that was just a commercial for this product and a booklet with other exciting ways to throw away your money. The refund policy is strict enough to guarantee you'll spend more money to send it back.
This product is a joke. It's uncomfortable, shabbily made, and you can get the same thing on Amazon for $12 and change. If I could rate this a 0, I would. Save your money and get real help for your snoring. The end.

I tried to order a free sample but when I went to the order page, I got a malicious malware warning my internet security provider. I immediately closed the page and left the site. So, someone may be phishing for your information. Beware!

  • Advantage Rent a Car

5/26/16

I returned to OKC from Korea and I had made a reservation for a compact car from Advantage. I didn't realize they had a new facility and a shuttle bus to and from the airport so, I got a ride with a friend. They didn't have the car I requested so, they up graded me to a Toyota Camry, a very nice car, at no extra charge. The check in was a breeze and the counter guy was most friendly and helpful. He made one call and when I got to the pickup window, the ar was ready. It was just as easy when I brought the car back. No hassles and what they quoted is what they charged. Great doing business with companies like this.

  • CarFlexi

I was returning to the States from Korea and needed a rental car for a couple of weeks. While searching the internet for a deal, I ran across CarFlexi.com. They were offering a lower price that the others so, I made the reservation. After waiting for over 8 hours for the promised voucher email, I contact them on their chat line. After three different chats and three different tries to receive an email, I give up and cancelled the reservation. They either are a fly-by-night company or they do not train their employees very well.
So, long story short, be cautious when using these folks. If they can't get their emails right the first time, who knows what will happen when you try to complete reservation.

I went to this website to create a resume for my wife. I found this site on Google after searching for FREE resume templates. After sitting and creating the resume, for nearly 30 minutes I went to print it out only to find that they were charging me $1.95. Well, I has spent the time and agreed to pay the one time fee. Then today, I was checking my account and discovered they were charging me another $40.
I called to inquire what the money was for and was told it was for the membership that I ordered. After explaining I did not order a membership they instructed me that the $1.95 was for a fourteen day trial and if I had not cancelled in fourteen days that they would automatically enroll me in the membership. I called and complained and wanted the money refunded. They told me that they would cancel my membership and reimburse me $30 for the unused part of the membership.
So, beware of these kind of FREE sites and really read what you are agreeing to.

We recently rented a car from Payless Car Rental in Guam. We were picked up, on time at the airport and taken to their office. They upgraded us to a SUV which was very nice and the paperwork was minimal. Overnight, we decided we wanted a smaller more compact car and returned to their office. They put us in a new Hyundai with just over 1000 miles. We returned the vehicle on the day we were to leave with no hassles and a very nice ride back to the airport.
The only drawback is their website infers that they are AT the airport which was confusing to us but, this is a very reliable company and the people there are of the highest standard.
We have to visit Guam often and we will definitely go back to Payless Car Rental.
Thanks guys.

  • JIN AIR

My wife and I recently had to fly from Korea to Guam and I booked a flight on, what I thought was Korean Air Lines, only to find out it was actually on Jin Air, a subsidiary of KAL. My mother always told me that if I couldn't say anything nice, I should say nothing at all. So,...

Free TV and live sports for the rest of your life. Only if you purchase a $325 android box. The ad is with two very annoying voiced girls that could use a sandwich, touting the free services but, fails to mention the box.
I haven't bought into the system and probably won't but, they really ought to mention the price of the box and then tout the free TV and sports.
In this day of ditching the cable companies and searching out different ways to watch TV, I was excited to think I could watch for free until, I checked out the website. This may be a good service but, with a little more honesty in advertising.

This review is on the Vidalia Chop Wizard. I bought one of these and to my surprise, it really works. It dices anything down to 1/4" to 1/8" with just a push of the top. It cuts onions without a tear and carrots, turnips, even hard boiled eggs with the same precision. Only, don't try to cut a whole carrot. I did and I broke an ear of the bottom base but, I still use it and it works just fine. Really a good product. I wish I had thought of it.

  • Copper Fit Back

5/8/15

I ordered the copper fit back brace per the commercial ad on television. They immediately doubled the order and sent me two confirmations. After some time on the phone, I managed to cancel one of the orders and awaited the back brace. After nearly two months, I finally received the brace.
I do not find anything remarkable as per the TV ads. I could have spent $8 to $12 at Walmart or CVS etc., and got a better product. I thought the copper in the brace was for medicinal purposes but learned it was to control odor.
So, in short, if you need a back brace, shop somewhere other than Copper Fit.

  • BuySpeedOut

I work as a mechanic on military vehicles and are forever breaking bolts or twisting out screws so, I seen the TV ad and bought the set. My first attempt to remove a 3/32 Phillips screw with a stripped out head, I broke the tool. I followed instructions to the tee but, after drilling out the head, I attempted to remove the screw and it snapped like a twig. Later, I tried to remove a 1/4-20 bolt with the same results. I wrote the company asking for return authorization but, got no where. So, just another worthless product I threw in the back of my toolbox which later. I threw away when I retired in 2014.
So, buyer beware, this is not a professional tool that your job depends on.

  • SatelliteDirect

9/19/14

I have already given Satelllitedirect.com one review and then, today I get an email saying they have new management and want to give me a FREE 30 day subscription. Well, in the first place, when I signed up the first time, I paid $39.95 for "a lifetime of free on-line TV". And now, they want to give me a free 30 days but, I have to give them my credit card information. How stupid do they believe I am. I didn't get what I paid for the first time and they want to do it all over again.
So, beware. This site is a rip-off and has been reported to the ICC. Hopefully, they receive enough complaints to take down the site.
