10/4/20

Absolutely the worst. Have had this for 3 months and it's been terrible the whole time. Stops streaming multiple times throughout any given show. If commercials have not been programmed into that show, many times it goes to "black" during the period of time the commercials should have been running in that time slot. You can't pause commercials. If you pause the actual show for more than 5 minutes it will not start back up at the same point you paused it at, and you have to start all over at the beginning. You can, admittedly, then fast-forward but it only allows fast-forwarding through the show segments, not through the commercial segments, so you have to watch those commercials (or black screen) all over yet again. We're slinging this as far away as possible today and, though it will cost more, going with a much better service.

Online car rental broker Rentalcars.com, a British company, quotes the lowest prices online because they are not upfront about the additional fees you'll have to pay on the back end. The "Total Price" quoted online, the "Total Price" listed on your booking confirmation, and the "Total Price" receipt that they email you are all the same amount, but that price is nonsense. It's absolutely not the "Total Price" you'll end up paying and there's not a word about additional charges, which would at least give you a heads-up. In my case the "Total Price" quoted online and emailed to me twice by Rentalcars.com for a car from EuropCar Heathrow London was $159.78. The actual final cost was $362.47, which is an ADDITIONAL 144%!

Today, the extremely rude Rentalcars.com "customer service" rep, who constantly cut me off in the middle of my sentences, finally admitted that the "Total Price" listed in those three places is the "total price payable to rentalcars.com, and doesn't include additional charges payable directly to the rental car company", and that I should have taken the opportunity to read more (the fine print) by clicking on 'Manage My Booking'. Due to strong US laws, Americans generally trust that when a seller tells you this is the "Total Price", that means what it says. By not revealing the dirty secret in the actual documents they send you they are, by US Consumer laws at least, dishonest and they could be prosecuted for such. Unfortunately for Americans, they're untouchable in the UK courts unless you want to spend a lot of money.

I bought an electric trailer tongue lift from T-Motorsports through ebay but didn't install for 3 months. Once installed, it went up and down exactly 4 times before it froze in the upper position and even the hand crank cannot not break it loose. Contacted the company and their curt reply was that it is out of its 2-month warranty and they are not responsible. Complete piece of junk and this shyster company does stand behind their products.
