Manards
We as customers have finally to become very offended by this horrible and unfair business practices some stores provide. They just do not care about the people, their one and only aim is to sell, sell, sell. Yes, this is understandable and right from various marketing points of view, but cannot they just be polite and supportive? Cannot they sell worthy appliances? All these questions come in mind when Menards is remembered with all its awful products and services.
Customer service. When you go shopping you hope at least that employees in the store would be helpful and glad to see you. But in real life in Menards that thing does not happen. The shop assistants are rude and pushy, they do not take into consideration what exactly you want to buy, they just try to sell the most expensive things. And if something goes wrong, or the appliances bought just do not work well, Menards and its employees would not give themselves the trouble to get the things right. And you can keep on calling their clients service numbers and trying to reach somebody able and having enough authority to help you. All you would get is run-arounds and complete rudeness.
Their products. As the practice and history of menards shows us, their products very often are of a poor quality. Sometimes they just sell some appliances that have already been in use and were returned as broken ones. Many items have manufacturing defects. And what is interesting that the price you pay is not the lowest one, and they are supposed to supply products of good quality and having long-term warranty. But that is not so and Menards surely should not be proud of it.
Delivery and installation. Do not you know that it is difficult to cooperate with people who do not speak your language? Everybody knows it but Menards. They send such techs and installers to your home that it appears to be quite impossible to explain something to them. And then some more problems appear. They install something wrong or not that good and you have to waste your precious time to call Menards over and over again to fix the things.

Best Western and Days Inn
When you are going on vacation, this is very understandable, that you plan everything. You start from choosing the dates, booking tickets and of course you book a hotel. But the choice of a hotel is actually a very important thing, because it can make or break your holidays. This could be a fantastic stay in a value for money hotel and it can bring a lot of pleasant impressions, sensations and thoughts to your memory. Or it could he a nightmare stay, spoiling all the days spent in it. So, we present you some complaints against Best Western and Days Inn, which may prevent you from having such an experience.
Best Western Inn.
The chain of these hotels is actually considered to be good enough. Every hotel is managed and run according to its own rules and is franchised. These hotels are even recommended by Amateur Athletic Association. And how could athletes stay there? If there are so many complaints against this hotel then it is probably something wrong about it. And it really is. Because the client service in Best Western is much to be desired. If there is some trouble with your room like horrible odor or filthy sheets, it is doubtful whether someone at the front desk would like to help you.
Days Inn.
This is also a national chain. And the prices in this hotel are relatively high, so theoretically, there should be no problems. And it was specified so in the advertisement. But there are some sufficient issues. For example, there is no high-speed internet at Days Inn and the number of TV channels is something like 10, though it was specified that there should a cable television. Besides, the client service and room service is dreadful, the employees are rude and inattentive.

New Improvements at Target and Amazon.com
Innovations in the sphere of client service, is it always a good thing? When some new rules, regulations or directions are newly introduced in order to improve the system, do they always work right? The answer is no, as there is nothing in the world which does not change. And when this thing happens, we should raise our objections and make a protest. And if we stay passive, ignorant and inert then everything will be unchanged. Here are some examples set forth below.
New return policy in Target.
Target is a consumer store, and as in all consumer stores it happens there that customers are sometimes happy, sometimes angry. If the service and products are of a good satisfying quality then there are no complaints. If the employees are rude, annoying and unhelpful – everybody is unsatisfied and customers say that Target is the worst shop ever and they will never come there again. The situation is like everywhere else. But when the store introduces new rules for the customers who seem to be kind of unfair, that is the issue to dispute. The fact of the matter is that if the customer has lost the check but he wants or needs to return the bought item it is possible to do showing his/her driver’s license. But what if the person for some reason does not have the driver’s license? That is the thing the management of Target should consider.
New reviews policy at Amazon.com
When you see the book in the list of bestsellers, you are prompted to buy it. This is the matter of trust to Amazon, they are respectful and tried-and-true. Exploiting the convenience, availability and world-wide reach of the Internet many book sellers such as Amazon have already discovered how to use the Internet successfully. But what if it appears that they deceive their customers faking the reviews, being interested or paid to sell some books? This is the new policy of Amazon.com : deleting negative or positive reviews in order to sell a book or to make it fail correspondingly. Or maybe this company does care about the customers and everything has already been set right?

Insurance Companies
This is really a good opportunity to look through the site before signing some health program. A person can be so lucky to read all the complaints thereby gaining knowledge about the companies he/she has to keep away from. Because even in such sphere as health insurance where people have to be really mean and lowdown to make the elderly or ill persons suffer, there exist a number of companies which are engaged in fraud.
MWI Premier Health. The scam of this company is not that horrible. They can just get from somewhere your credit card number and take some money of your bank account. The unauthorized amount may vary from $20 to $150. Though when you call them and explain the situation they apologize and remove that charge from your credit, it brings some inconvenience and mess on it the account and, understandably, it gets out of balance.
Cigna Insurance. Sometimes this company can provide you some troubles, which are more serious than scam – they can influence your health. They are really dodgy and always try to find some way to avoid paying the coverage. They can say that such and such medical treatment is not necessary and deny your request, and when you start disputing they say there was no letter of denial and so on. Or in the insurance contract they mention only one dosage level of the prescripted drug and if you take the other they will not cover it. Or they can make a mistake in the spelling of you name, accidentally or intentionally, and then stall for time refusing you in coverage.
Healthcare Advantage. Their health plan is completely a scam: they assure you they cover 80% of the medical costs but when it comes to payment they wriggle out of an engagement. They even do not accept a money order – is not it strange? They also say that the price you would pay for the coverage depends on the location and offer some discounts, etc. but then they charge you full price.

Raymore And Flanigan vs Ashley Furniture
While choosing a furniture store to upgrade my apartment, I have decided to check the customer reviews on two companies I had previously selected: Ashley Furniture HomeStores and Raymore & Flanigan. Raymour and Flanigan is the actual name of the store. However, many people confuse Raymore vs Raymour.
Ashley Furniture and Raymour & Flanigan are promoted as an American top furniture companies which are customer-oriented full-service stores delivering the highest quality. And then I was extremely impressed by a huge number of negative reviews. Summarizing all the troubles, which have ever happened to the customers of Ashley Furniture and Raymore and Flanigan, I have pointed out the main ones.
Poor delivery service. According to the customers’ furious comments, in most cases the companies never deliver furniture items on time. It can be three or six day delay or some items of your furniture might never be delivered: there were some cases, when the pieces of furniture were missing and not replaced in a half a year term, after which, surely, nobody wanted them. But that is half the trouble. Furniture can be delivered damaged and unfixable, and the company would not like to work the things out. The verdict: loosely organized and operated delivery system.
No honor to the warranty. Sure, selling their furniture, they persuade you that if some trouble comes around they will be with you to break it down. But after this trouble arrives, they disregard those promises as hard as they can – never answer who is going to take care of you problem, whose attention will be brought to it and they just keep shuttling you from one manager to another. They are stalling for time while you are being stressed out over it. Some managers just promise you the refund or replacement to calm you down for a while and you can wait for ever. In the Ashley Furniture the salesperson can even ask you to sign the contract, which binds you to repay 30% restocking fee if the furniture is returned. The verdict: unfair business practice.
Unsatisfactory client service. In most cases, salespersons are rather pushy and attack you instantaneously you enter the store. The companies are known for ripping off their customers selling unremarkable furniture at rather high price. The way customers are treated is usually far from forthcoming, especially when you are calling to reach the person who would solve the problems with your furniture they have provided. Representatives of the companies say they are “franchised and have little control of what each store does”. Is that an answer of a company which does everything for the customer to be happy? The verdict: management is incompetent and inept.
Resuming all written above, I should better go to some other retailers. What about you?
