  • Energizer

4/13/24

This review is for the three pack Energizer 357 batteries, as shown below. I needed replacement battery for my hearing aid. I stopped in a Walgreens and bought the three pack 357 batteries as shown below. This was one week ago. The date on the pack was 2028. The first battery lasted five days, roughly 1/3 life of other brands. The second battery went bad in less than 48 hours. I am now on the third battery. But guess what! That is not my biggest complaint with this purchase. My biggest complaint is the packaging. Each battery is in a sealed plastic, VERY HEAVY PLASTIC CASE. I was amazed and frustrated at removing each battery from the plastic. In fact, I finally resorted to my red MacGiver pocket knife, still finding it dangerous ans difficult to remove each battery from the case. Now I am mechanically inclined, and carry the knife and small visegrips in my pocket daily. So when I say difficult I mean difficult. So my advice is to beware of this Energizer item, and be very careful opening the batteries.

I have been an AMEX member since 1989, continuously. Today I decided to open an AMEX savings account, to take advantage of their interest rate. So I opened the page, and began the application. (See photo below). When i got to the page to sign in, it would not accept my ID and password, said they were incorrect. Why? Because you have to lie and say you are not an AMEX customer. After checking and rechecking, I called AMEX. Guess what…TO OPEN A SAVINGS ACCOUNT WITH AMEX BANKING, YOU HAVE TO SAY THAT YOU DO NOT HAVE AN ACCOUNT WITH AMEX. That is what they told me. No, no and hell no. After 34 continuous years with AMEX, I am not going to tell a lie, that lie. Particularly when I intend to deposit a substantial amount of money, which could disappear….why? Because I lied. So beware, BEWARE! This situation is not straight up. And, when you research Reviews for AMEX….well, beware!

Tip for consumers:
Beware

Look at my pictures below. Would you like you or your family to receive this ad, and then have the ad block your game? Then, try to contact WWF to resolve and guess what! No contact reply. Well the ad says it: F….WWF!

Tip for consumers:
Expect no correction from WWF

  • Ashley Madison

Been on this site off and on for three years. Most of the profiles are fake. The site charges a membership, charges to pos a message, to collect a message, and is mostly fake. Look at the posts. Photos to not fit the description, age. Site shows most posts are online.mmi have experienced countless scammers posts. I went off it a while back, and came back on to find it worse than before, once the site gets your CC, it will recharge you even if you specifically refuse to authorize it. The charge site is different than the AM site, a third party site. Good that I used AMEX. The site charges for posts you don't make. And once tou are off it, the site keeps your profile, to collect messages from others, most likely. The identity of the site owner is hidden. Generic messages from fake posts ask for another message, you must pay for, before they 'decide.' Many posters have struck up a conversation, only to ask for emergency money. This site is a waste.

The Cape Coral Office Depot on Pine Island Road is a total waste for printing copies, unless you have unlimited time to waste. After many visits I have always had to go elsewhere. The machines do not work. The employees are few (two) and they have long lines because they don't work much either. Today, one in three printing machines was working, about normal. But, it quit after I was down to only two waiting ahead of me.

Tip for consumers:
Take aa newspaper or word game with you

Returns at Home Depot
Store. Drive 22 miles one way. Find out you cannot return because you have too many returns.Ha Ha, have none in over a year. Was purchasing a list of items, but due to poor experience, walked out. The competition can't be any worse. Waited twenty minutes to find out they would not service their customer. So when I got back to my desk, I tried to contact them online to file a complaint. Online was a real sad experience. I wasn't prepared for someone in Mexico, and I don't speak Spanish. HD! Joke!

Tip for consumers:
Go elsewhere

This is the worst of the worst sites for interrupting internet use. Many times, it comes up with no request, and is nearly impossible to get off of without shutting down and recycling. And, the advertisements on it are often inappropriate. Sites like FB allow it to advertise knowing the flaws, and I have posted complaints which were acknowledged, but still the site continues. Very unfortunate for legitimate sites.

Products used:
Forced to be on this site repeatedly. This is an advertising site complaint

If you enjoy fake profiles and messages, and paying for them, join AM. If you want a vendor which will charge your card over a year after you have signed off because they were crooked, join AM. I have blocked AM with PayPal, and AMEX, for over a year, and am still having to dispute charges
That reoccur. Don't worry about speaking to an AM representative, that won't happen. My profile is still on AM... can't take it off. No wonder they say they are the largest site! And as far as meeting someone off AM, well, free beer tomorrow...

Tip for consumers:
Go elsewhere.
