Review of fourseasons

An unpleasant Easter Sunday

We spent 10 days over the Easter holidays at the Four Seasons in Mahé. The bay and beach were very beautiful and scenic, the Marine Biologist Pip was excellent (highly recommended), and the Creole staff was very kind and always smiling. However, the management team was absolutely incompetent and incapable of running a super-luxury resort priced at 4,000 euros per night—more akin to a three-star hotel. Here’s what happened:Activities: There’s a weekly program of available activities, but unfortunately, for the “catch and release” activity, both boats were out of order for most of our stay, due to an “outside vendor” who failed to repair them in time. A resort of this level should have internal maintenance for these kinds of issues—otherwise, it fails to meet its guests’ expectations.Housekeeping: Although we had requested the service at a specific time, housekeeping staff would show up whenever they wanted, and on several occasions we returned to the room while it was still being cleaned. There seems to be no communication between housekeeping and management—maybe they outsource housekeeping as well?Room/Villa: While the above might be forgivable with an apology, what happened with our room was unacceptable: we were unable to use our villa for several hours because the air conditioning stopped working, and they had to contact an “outside vendor.” These things can happen, but the issue was that the manager only appeared at the very end. They were not proactive in addressing the problem—we had to go to the beach and wait, hoping they would manage to fix the AC, well into the evening.When it got dark and we were still waiting on the beach with no update, the manager finally showed up, telling me that until ten minutes prior, he hadn’t even been aware of the issue. He also didn’t know how the repair was progressing or whether he had a room immediately available—meanwhile, we were the only ones left on the beach in the dark!After another half-hour of complaints (when one should be relaxing on vacation, not getting upset), the manager finally offered us an alternative room. So, instead of going to dinner, we went to our room to pack up. Just as we were nearly finished packing, we were informed that the AC was now working again… In short, we wasted half a day (including Easter Sunday!) dealing with complaints and various service failures.

History will say this paper died due to…

History will say this paper died due to godawful writing, and despicable opinions. This was once a respectable newspaper but in recent decades has become worthless in every conceivable way. Kept afloat only by a generation who fed on and were comforted by writing that scraped even below the tabloids The Sun and The Daily Star. Shunned by most (including Lego) nothing can redeem it. With the next generation, this utter garbage will expire and it deserves to. Goodbye, Daily Mail and Mail on Sunday. You will not be missed.

Vendeur par catalogue proposant des articles en principe peu cher. On trouve des articles facilitant la vie de tous les jours. Les catalogues proposent des produits en rapport avec les saisons. Certains articles sont introuvables en ville et sont pourtant utiles.

Review of patreon

KYC likely required

They require a bunch of unnecessary KYC info just to process credit card transactions. They also take 15% of the creator's money.

Review of patreon

Electronic begging by YouTubers.

Electronic begging by YouTubers.I never really understood this company. I get constant advertising from YouTube channels I sometimes view. I once subscribed to a channel was asked to pay 5 dollars, and after a couple of months I was charged 15.00 a month without my permission. I cancelled subscription before the initial month was finished. Never got refunded for the 2 months worth so 35.00 all told. This platform steals your money. Now I just pay the YT premium fee for little or no ads supposedly. YT videos are not television shows or movie theatre content that you pay for a ticket or rent a movie and pay Hollywood studios and actors.

Review of fotor

Worst Software Ever Beware it's a scam!!!

Worst experience ever with Fotor. I purchased their service and after wasting a considerable amount of time in the interface trying to use the tool I realized it does not work and requested a refund. The support was rude, slow to respond, and condescending. The desktop application freezes and is extremely buggy I cannot believe they are actually charging people for this.

Review of eBay

eBay is Not What It Used to Be

Used to love eBay, but now it’s just full of scams & terrible customer service. Bought a “new” item, got a broken one, and eBay sided with the seller even with proof! Fees are crazy, sellers & buyers both get ripped off. They don’t care, just want your money. Avoid if you can!

Review of abebooks

You are probably only reading this if…

You are probably only reading this if you have had a similar problem, but maybe it will help someone. AbeBooks used to be good, but I have had nothing but problems recently. If you need to return a book, it’s out of your pocket, and although you will be told the seller will refund your shipping costs, they won’t (SecondSale)Another scam is when the seller ships your book with no tracking information. I can almost guarantee you that the book was never shipped. The sellers will do this because then their fulfillment rating won’t go down. They probably also do it because sometimes the buyer forgets about their order and then they just pocket the money (Irish Booksellers). Customer service is basically non-existent. I don’t recommend this site and most likely won’t use it again
