Review of eventbrite

BEWARE: NO HELP when things go wrong!

If an organiser has only listed their event with Eventbrite then the customer doesn’t really have a choice whether to use it or not. I used to think it was excellent, until something went wrong and I realised Eventbrite don’t have any helpful customer service! A company not having any contact telephone number or online chat is a major red flag nowadays.My experience…. an event organiser failed to provide a service, so I requested a refund on the platform. The event organiser replied stating they weren’t able to issue a refund via Eventbrite due to system restrictions , so I contacted Eventbrite’s ‘support’ to ask for help.Eventbrite sent me this “We reviewed your request and are not able to issue a refund at this time as the event in question does not appear to be cancelled.”They offer no solution. The event organiser has taken my money, not provided the service, and Eventbrite refuse to help.If there is an alternative to Eventbrite, I would use it.

Review of co

Dodgy forcasts

Just today’s weather forecast for The North. All week promised rain Saturday through Monday. Now who knows might me Tuesday. This new provider is not a patch on Met office weather On ITV and channel 4 and 5. The week ahead forecast is a total waste of time.

Lazy and incompetent delivery drivers.…

Your delivery drivers are lazy and incompetent. The delivery report is a flagrant lie. It states delivered to letterbox. It was chucked over the garden gate 40m from our front door.Even worse is your so-called intelligent chat system. It's clearly designed to avoid any discussion about delivery performance.

Review of nypost

Too much woke propaganda

Too much woke propaganda and some articles are opinion driven, conclusions made by the author, which is just poor story-telling.

Review of disneyplus

Over time

Over time, this service has become outdated. If they had had the good sense to include the sports licenses they own (like ESPN), I might have stayed a customer, but that is not the case. The content, far from justifying its price, no longer appeals to anyone. An ever-present and intrusive agenda is tainting the licenses they hold, one after the other. As for me, Disney is over.

Review of chegg

Please go back to the old platform setting

Hi hate the new set up of how your platform is run. The old way was much more user-friendly. Please change it back.

Review of typeform

Great App - We use it for everything!

Not only are the forms beautifully designed and loaded with functionality, the integrations mean that I don't have to rely on the developers for changes to the forms in our applications. Great App and an example of how a tech product should be run!

Review of Spotify

Audiobooks rediculously expensive

Spotify audiobooks absolutely dreadful and soooo expensive. Lured in with 15 hours of audio and happy to pay one extension fee of £9.99 but when you still haven’t finished the book and they ask for another £9.99 that’s dreadful. Works out at over £19.98 plus per book. It just doesn’t make sense. You can buy the book on Apple Books for £7.99. Very disappointing. I wouldn’t recommend them.

Review of org

National Trust

National Trust, National RIP off.Very embarrassing, as our son gave my wife and I joint membership as a Christmas present, which there seems no prospect of us ever being able to use.To those who run the National Trust, our membership cost may be just petty cash, to most of us it is not.To be asked for another £5, shows a completely disregard for Members.Never again.

My experience with AnyVan was…

My experience with AnyVan was horrendous. My slot was between 10 & 12 in the morning. At approximately 11.30 I phoned the removal van ( because I hadn’t heard from them) & was told that they would be about 3 hours late. When they did arrive the van wasn’t big enough. I payed for 2 people but ended up with their girlfriends as well. They told me that they hadn’t been told that I wanted 3 items dismantled & assembled but thankfully I had proof on my phone. The only tool they had was an old electric drill that couldn’t do the job. My son, daughter in law & I ended up taking the items apart with the neighbours tools plus my son had to show them how to manoeuvre the larger items through doors & down the stairs & I quickly came to the conclusion that these removal men were not professionals. Also I want to add that they asked me if I had any food as they were hungry. I payed over a thousand pounds for this service. Anybody reading this PLEASE DON’T make the same mistake I did by using this company.

The BBB is not worth a darn

The BBB is not worth a darn. They do not follow through on complaints and i’ve witnessed them deleting all reviews and complaints against a company giving them an A+ rating.
