Review of emirates

How the mighty have fallen...

I booked a return trip from Manchester to Bangkok. I was a bit shocked as to how much the prices have increased. I like flying the A380 so went ahead and booked. I also payed extra to pre-book my seats, which in my opinion is a rip off if you are paying over £800 for a flight.Several weeks later I checked my booking online and noticed that emirates had changed the aircraft on 3 of the legs of my trip to Boeing 777, which was a bit annoying.I was a bit shocked at the condition of the aircraft on all 4 legs of the trip, the interior had certainly seen better days. Also dissapointing was the food, cold and tasteless. Drinks service seemed to much of a chore for the cabin crew and talking of the cabin crew, they were so miserable.

Review of hootsuite

If there was a zero rating I’d give it…

If there was a zero rating I’d give it to Hootsuite. Why? It’s about ethical conduct of business. I once logged into there account 12 months ago, i used the system for about 30 mins to check the functionality, and never logged back in. 12 months later I got a bill for over $700?!? I asked why and they said I had a pro membership. I never used or signed up to a service from this company and I certainly didn’t agree to pay for anything! They have been bulling me, threatening me ever since to get payment. Please do not use this company, there are much better social media deployment tools on the market and ones that conduct business cleanly. Please do not log into their system you’ll be billed immediately but not informed. These horrific underhand tactics deserve to be exposed!

Review of hootsuite

Helpful, but too standardized

Easy to use service to helping continued posting. Downside is that you can't personalize it by adding own view or reason why you're posting it.The whole company having access can lead to an "overdose" of the same post

Review of BBC

I have had enough of the BBC

I have had enough of the BBC. I am so utterly disappointed in them and disgusted at the same time for their completely biased reporting of the C19 'pandemic'. They have gone from the world's most reliable and relied upon news source to a bunch of puppets controlled by the government. I haven't bought a TV licence since 2008, but my daughter purchased one when she lived with me for a couple of years. I can safely say I don't feel I've missed out on anything because the BBC's standards appear to be getting poorer and poorer.

Review of agoda

AGODA

AGODA : A scam companyI am a VIP Platinum status customer of Agoda. From my experience of last few stays, I found out that Agoda is a scam company now.For every booking in South East Asia, they showed a lower effective price with promised cashback after 120 days of stay. So I made bookings with Agoda. Booking Id: 1456387257Booking Id: 1451584325Booking Id: 1451558209I made these bookings for a large group in three different hotels using Agoda and after our stays were completed, I was waiting for cashback to arrive. After more than 60 days of our stay the cashback amount did not show up in my app. So hundreds of dollars promised by Agoda just vanished. Their call center is worst. I have email proofs saying that after 60 days of stays, the promised amount will be shown in Agoda app and the staff at call centre is saying they don’t know why the promised cashback amount is not being paid.

Review of Stack Overflow

Best avoided

I was aware that SO had a bit of a reputation of being unpleasant, but even I was unprepared for just how obnoxious most of them are. Don't get me wrong, I had help from a couple of people; I was polite and made it clear that I was asking for some help to continue learning and NOT just asking them to do it for me- then the pile on came... You really cannot do anything right on that site.Unless you are already a very experienced user and want to share your ideas, I would steer clear. Don't just take my word for it- search engines are full of examples of people writing the same thing. I'll be honest the abuse actually shook me a bit.EDIT: having thought about it a bit, I think it is not unknown for people who are immensely clever to have social dificulties; perhaps they were the 'nerd' type at school and college that we shunned and perhaps that's why they've grown up to be people who are incapable of social maturity. Perhaps we should have made more effort with them in the past instead of leaving them to fester as 40 year old virgins and without friends.

Review of shutterstock

I have mixed feelings about this…

I have mixed feelings about this service. Let's start with the positives: the AI-generated images are impressive, producing very realistic photos, even when text is involved. Additionally, the selection of photos is extensive, and it's generally much more affordable than Getty.However, there is a downside. I purchased an on-demand subscription package with 350 photo credits (downloads) for $199/month. The issue is that these photo credits expire, so you need to ensure you download all the images you want before that happens. Unfortunately, this wasn't clearly communicated upfront. My advice: start with a smaller package (10 or 50 photo downloads) to see if you can use up all the credits before committing to a larger one!I ended up using it for only 1 out of the 3 months, which led to me significantly overspending... hence the mixed feelings.

I have chatted with a number of companies. Donain.com's chat feature is easier than most. The representatives in customer service are very helpful and professional.
