Review of Squirt.org


Rated 1 out of 5 stars

WHERE IS MINUS STAR RATING

If there was a MINUS STAR RATING i would give it Squirt minus 10
App never works. most of time wont even load, AND YES i have reinstalled several times, the you try to log in all you get is the wheel of doom then it tells you your details are incorrect (but hey i logged in on web already so how incorrect??????) The help you get from squirt is USELESS,and MINIMAL AS THEY HAVE NO IDEA OF WHAT THEY ARE TALKING ABOUT. All the tell you to do is re install and clear cache.... YOU CANT DO THAT ON ANDROID. Now on the web it works OK but now today i cannot access any profiles all i get is UPGRADE we want your money,
MY ADVICE IS STICK WITH GRINDR IT MAY BE FULL OF TEASERS AND WIND UP MERCHANTS BUT AT LEAST IT WORKS AND DOES NOT TRY TO FORCE YOU TO PAY SUBSCRIPTION
FINAL ADVICE IS RUN RUN RUN FROM SQUIRT DO YOURSELF A BIG FAVOUR AND SAVE HOURS OF HEADACHES never INSTALL OR USE ,,,,, USELESS APP AND WEBS SITE..... Yet they want you to pay and upgrade for this CRAP SITE

I used this comany several times but now acting like THEIVES

I used this comany several times and always ok UNTIL NOW they want to charge me £690 per ticket to change flights. The original ticket costs £677 the new ticket cost £809 differnece of £132. BUT THESE RIP OFF THEIVES WANT TO CHARGE ME £690 EACH ticket
EVEN THOUGH QATAR AIRLINE ADVISE THE DIFFERENCE SHOUlD ONLY BE HE DIFFENECE IN THE PRICE OF THE TICKET plus any REASONABLE change fee but not an additional £690
MY ADVICE BE SURE YOU WILL NOT CHANGE YOUR TICKET any chance you will do this the AVOID THIS COMPANY LIKE THE PLAGUE

Review of Lavazza

Don't buy any lavazza machine unless…

Don't buy any lavazza machine unless you willing to buy pods online. All main supermarkets in UK only sells one type passonniete. Can't buy any other of the coffee strengths or flavours. If I had known this I would never have bought a lavazza. Complete waist of money

Pathetic

All i can say is the So called large Princess Bouquet is PATHETIC. 2-3 day old flowers and I would never call them a bouquet mearly a bunch of flowers,wrapped with a bit of clear wrapping. You can get the same at half the price from Tesco. Sainsburye etc. I advise you not to use this company or you will be so dissapointed

Hi Max,

Thanks for taking the time to leave your review. We're really sorry to hear about your negative experience with some of the estate agents who advertise on our portal.

All the for sale/to rent information on Zoopla is provided to us by the estate agents advertising the properties who are subject to our terms and conditions and code of conduct.

Our aim is to ensure that all information on our site is as comprehensive and accurate as possible so next time you see this, it would be very helpful if you could click ‘Report this listing’ on the listing’s page (on the desktop site). Here is a Help Centre article discussing how to report a listing, in greater detail:

https://help.zoopla.co.uk/hc/en-gb/articles/360006033017

We will then investigate the issue further by speaking to the agent advertising the property.

Alternatively, please feel free to send any website links for incorrectly uploaded properties directly to us to investigate further with the marketing agent(s) and update our records accordingly.

If there's anything else we can do to help you with or if you wish to contact us directly with your feedback, be sure to visit our Help Centre where you may find many useful articles as well as a designated section for property seekers:

Review of Zoopla

Rentals- Allowing false descitptions

Rentals- Zoopla allow landlords to misrepresent their property stating its a ONE BEDRROM FLAT- when in facts its a bedroom in a shared house. I confronted them- and below is their reply they promise to change but they never do as I have comlained aboout this several time but still the same Falsley advertised properties. They want me to report all of these false properties- seriously there ar pages of them, and I am not employed to do this for them but they expect me to do THEIR JOB-
NO REAL VETTING WHEN THESE PROPERTIES ARE POSTED
There reply to my compliant----

I would like to assure you that we are aware of the fact that the estate agents advertising their properties on Zoopla do not always mark them as ‘shared accommodation’ which causes the issue. Unfortunately, this is done when the agents upload the properties to our website via feeds which we cannot update without their instruction.

Please be advised that our specially designated Compliance Team are constantly working on resolving this problem by investigating such cases with particular agents and ensuring that all property listings on our site are as comprehensive and accurate as possible.

We are continually in the process of investigating the misleading property listings which are published on our website and we do take them very seriously. It is valuable feedback and ideas from users such as you that help us to continue to develop and make Zoopla a more useful resource for all our users. Thus, we do appreciate it when users send us examples of any incorrect information so that we can update our records as soon as possible.

Hi Max,

Thanks for leaving us a review and we're really sorry to hear you feel this way.

All the for sale/to rent information on Zoopla is provided to us by the estate agents advertising the properties, when uploading their properties to Zoopla we request they mark the property as ‘shared accommodation’ if this is the case but unfortunately it seems sometimes this is not done resulting in our users finding listings in search results they did not expect.

Our aim is to ensure that all information on our site is as comprehensive and accurate as possible so next time you see this it would be very helpful if you could select the ‘report listing error’ option on the right hand side of the page. We will then investigate the issue further by speaking to the agent advertising the property.

In the meantime you can further refine your property search in the ‘For sale’ or ‘To rent’ listings by using the keywords filter to search for properties that include specific words, such as garden. You can search for exact phrases using quotation marks such as "double garage"; to exclude a term you can prefix it with ‘-’ for example -student or -shared.

If you ever need any assistance and wish to contact us directly with your feedback, you may do so via our designated Help Centre:

Many thanks,

Review of Airbnb

FALSE INFO & DANGEROUS PROPERY

Rented a property throgh this company, and the pictures used were at least 5-10 year old. when arrived property it was old, scruffy and dated and nothing like the crisp new look on the AirBNB pictures. There was also DANGEROUS issues like a pool that had so many broken tiles in it you could not enter withiout risk of being cut. Not to mention serios structural cracks in the building...Nothing I could do when there (where else would I go)...Complained to AirBNB when got bank all they could say was speak to host and would not intervean, just kepkt sending me there rules links. Completely ignoring the DANGEROUS POOL & STRUCTURE issues. If I were you I WOULD NOT RENT ANY PROPERTY FROM AIRBNB as you dont know what your getting, and as far as they are concerned, they dont want to know about your issues once they have their profit. THIS DANGEROUS PROPERT WITH FALSE PHOTOS IS STILL BEING ADVERTISED ON THE AIRBNB SITE

Cant get on to the portal

Cant get on to the portal. Used to get on months ago. I know my password and username but to be sure tried to request via forgot password/& username. Tried dozens of time over days NOTHING no email or text to reset. On the rare occassions you can get online chat to someone I asked to send re set for both. EVEN THOSE (direct emails to my email) LINKS DONT WORK 3 weeks still can get on to portal. They then send me an useless email 3 days ago....We are sorry to hear you are having issues logging into your account, whilst we work on this for you, as requested we can confirm (answer to my actual question). Guess what still cant get on to the site or reset username.... APPALLING TECHNOLOGY OR SHOULD I SAY LACK OF TECHNOLOGY. If you like using online stuff I would steer clear of this company

EXACT LOCATION SEARCH!!!!!!

Every other property site you can choose to search under...England, Scotland, Wales etc but not right moves,... You have to pick a SPECIFIC LOCATION. eg london, Glasgow, Cardif etc
As a property investor it means I have to search under every bloody town or city.... SORT IT OUT RIGHT MOVES, or should I just keep using your competetors
