Awful
Awful. 30 minutes after landing stuck on plane. Took 25 minutes before they announced anything. Incredibly poor customer service. Just rude.
Man I thought Ryan Air was bad.

Review of The Walt Disney Company
A truly awful cowardly company. Please take your business elsewhere.
Review of Speechify
I used speechify for a bit. It was far too invasive and popped up on every web page. Eventually I canceled. I canceled om the day it renewed which they acknowledged. But because it went through on my card I disputed it. Because I disputed the charge they used it as an excuse to put me through hell.
Many delays and excuses even after I withdrew the dispute.
Today I received an email requesting a level of documentation that would put to shame an IRS audit.
Good luck canceling.

Review of American Express Global
They are the worst. Trying to book flights. Can I cancel? Fair rules require a lawyer. Price is 30% more expensive than booking direct with airline. Chatting is terrible experience. Chat freezes, font too small. Plus Amex is rarely accepted overseas. Platinum card is a sick joke and absolutely worthles.
Review of American Express Global
Amex is the worst. I have a platinum card. There dispute mechanism is a complete scam. They will credit you back and quietly reverse the credit with some vague boilerplate answer.
Paying for platinum? Cancel now. I have had spent hours chasing down erroneous charges. Amex pretends to help which makes it worse. I would rather go with a free card.
I lose far more money dealing with zombie uncancelable recurring charges than any of the benefits Amex offers. help is only pretend. Not real.
Review of Sagrada Família Tickets
A complete deception. I feel completed suckered and nauseous and sick to my stomach that I fell for this. These sleezeballs have completely ruined my day.
It's made to look official (except in the fine print nobody reads) and has a .org to complete the scam. If it's a .org where does the money go? Or is that part of the deception?
Tickets arrived but I can't even tell if they're official (even their email says tickets aren't official) but what I do know is they charged 2x for zero additional benefits. They survive based on a deception.
Review of Toptal
Monumentally overpriced talent, no transparency in billing, hourly rate is multiple times what I could find on any number of freelancer websites. Basically Toptal maxes the hourly rate they bill the client and god knows what they pay the talent. I assumed I would get better talent at Toptal but not much difference relative to finding my own talent on any number of freelancer websites.

Review of Wise
Ran out of money. No warning. I want to transfer money to transferwise to continue using yet menu items are useless. So many notifications except the most critical.
Review of Quest Diagnostics
A total scam. Customer service designed to feed their suicide hotline business (joke) . Duplicate billing and multiple perma hold endless customer service with no answer makes me wonder whether their revenue strategy is fake billing, horrible customer service, fear people into paying with no recourse.
If I didn't know better I would say they're run by Elizabeth Holmes.
Review of Knight Frank
Knight Frank is horrible. My landlord asked them to release my deposit in a timely manner. Now KF has been sitting on it for well over two weeks. They are required to give back within 10 days of my landlord releasing. They have been almost completely non-responsive. If KF can't be trusted with the simple task of returning a deposit DO NOT trust them to manage your property in any capacity. I don't know if they're lazy, incompetent or worse. But the evidence is in - avoid at all costs.

Terrible experience with billing and smart metre. Process designed to confuse and extract max fees.

Review of Virgin Atlantic
Outright fraud or Breathtakingly incompetent?
I am now on my second phone call to get virgin to credit me miles I earned.
First of all I booked flight through their app, so in theory it should be automatic that miles are awarded. Why it didn't happen Virgin can't say.
Second problem was there is no way to have an email confirmation sent. I couldn't request one and one wasn't sent. This is normally a routine matter. Because they didn't send an email confirm and their app doesn't record my flights it's been much harder to provide validation for my flights.
Third when I provided my mileage number to Delta who was operating the flight, twice Delta's system rejected the number. The mileage number was correct as it was directly from the Virgin app.
The first time I called it took an hour but VA promised me the miles would be added by the end of the day. 3 days later still waiting. I'm on another call and of course they have no record of my prior call.
The confluence of events lead me to wonder whether Virgin is intentionally blocking miles in order to keep their costs down (miles are a cost that VA has to record against income).
