watchsavings.com aka jomashop.com is about to be. Ordered a watch on DEC 8th. After 20+ phone calls and numerous emails I finally spoke with someone, "oh, your watch is going out today." I said fine. Got an email later yesterday saying my credit card billing address didnt match my shipping address. When I told them they were full of ****** because my address is correct and I would know since I worked at the bank the card was issued and this has never happened before. Told them if I dont have a watch on my doorstep on friday, I was sending all this crap to the fraud dept that just happens to be on the floor below me.

Today? PeoplePC. We signed up for a trial yesterday to try it out. It hangs up on us every 5 minutes, is a pain in the butt to work with, takes over your computer with their crap, and when you try to cancel, they make you call back several times and run you through the ringer. I STILL haven't been able to cancel, and I've been at it for a couple hours. And to top it off, they only allow you to be connected for 3 to 4 hours at a time for their "unlimited service." They define unlimited service as "being able to connect at any time." Huh? Don't all ISPs allow you to connect anytime you want, day or night??? And furthermore, when you're on a modem, it often takes hours to download huge updates for your software, so hanging up on you after 3 or 4 hours of use is completely unacceptible. :|
 
It is not a compay per-say but I don't think I'm going back to the San Diego Comic Convention anytime soon. One of the staff guys there was very rude and I don't like the new format.
 
Hardies, I've called their complaint line but they never do anything to fix a problem. They just apologize and send out a bunch of free coupons. But when I go to use the coupon they are just as bad and I end up complaining about that trip and get more coupons. Now I don't accept the coupons. I felt pretty good after a year and half boycott when I drove by and saw the local one had shut down.
 
Gerber, of the "Legendary Blades" not the baby food. I bought a dive knife based on their name, and it was a complete piece of garbage -- rusted the first time I took it on a dive even though I rinsed it and dried it within 30 minutes of getting out of the water. Their "lifetime guarantee" was BS, and they wouldn't do anything for me. I'll stick with Mission, Leatherman, S&W, Victorinox, and SOG if I want knives and tools.
 
Verizon - Because they renew contract length for minor changes without notifying the customer, because their customer service is wretched, and because the sales reps are the scum of the Earth.

Honda - Because thier cars are bland, boring, difficult to work on without special tools, have inflated resale value, and attract idiot drivers.

Walmart - Because their merchandise is bottom shelf, their employees and customers all have crept out from under a rock or a bridge, and their business practices are wreckless and bad for the customer as well as competition.

Dying for an update on your thread EngenZerO! 😀

TigerDirect - because you ain't never gonna see that rebate

K-Mart - because the price never rings correctly and ad items are never in stock

Kentucky Fried Chicken - Because getting fvcking chicken should not take half an hour.

you guys have to post WHY you hate them, so others know.



I hate Worst Buy for the following reasons

1)Extended warranty Nazi's

2)Return Policy sucks

3)Sales people are annoying and full of shat

4) Team up with the "Geek Squad" LMAO

5)Sell open box merchandise for full price

6)My Local stores are ALWAYS out of stock on most Items that i would be interested in buying.

BestBuy - Their extended warrenty scam (well, that's the main reason)

Buy.com - Practice of listing items "in stock" for a couple days after they go OOS

Barnes and Noble - Competitive pricing on their website, often with free, fast shipping. Yet, full retail in store. So, I can pay less to have it shipped to me from them, or pay more to go and get it myself from their store.

Edit: Add this to my list for reasons to hate Best Buy.
 
Walmart
Real Networks (even though there local)
DHL
Verizon

Thats about it for companies I cannot stand.

As for book sales I don't like using Amazon as they charge sales tax. Their freaking castle HQ is about a mile away and glares down at us from the hill.

-spike
 
Staples - becuase the price in the flyer doesn't equal the price in the store and neither price matches the price at the register. (at least at my staples) Oh and mail-in rebates suck.
