Free cruise was offered throught a promotion by Blue Water. Documentation (forms) were given to us and in turn all documents were mailed (certified) to Promotions to arrange for the Free crusie and airfare. My paperwork was signed for early May. I phoned several times to ask why a travel consultant has not contacted us and the girl said she would check the mail. I waited a week to call again to no avail. A recorded message is all you can get. I have left messages but no one returns calls. My next formal complaint will be on Bkue Water who loured us in to hear their travel presentation (which we purchsed) and did not get the Free crusie. read full review »

I have just about had it with first for women. My nephew (30y0) and I met up in an accident all because of someone who hijacked a car. These people drove into us. We were victims as well. They are interrogating us with tons and tons of questions - waiting for you to say something wrong and on that basis they would repudiate the claim. I would understand had the accident been our fault, but the source of this was caused by a 3rd party. They have now appointed an investigator to go to the police, phone my nephew, phone this one and that one; the... read full review »

We contacted Revamp It for repairs that had to be done to our roof, as well as bargeboards which had to be replaced. One of their market managers came to our house and gave a quotation.

The work was completed on the 4th of March 2010. During May, after a few showers, we noticed that the roof in the courtyard was still leaking and the paint on the bargeboards were washed off... read full review »

You will pay a fortune and will get poor service and you will end up doing everything again. read full review »

After complaining about loose tiles basically throughout the entire house we are renting, our lessor did not bother to fix anything. We have reported the problem in January 2010 and for this and other reasons we decided to cancel the contract earlier than our 1 year agreement. Now that we are moving out, the tiles are being fixed (and what a MESS). Despite the dust, we now have a huge area where there are no tiles (only cement), and are thus required (forced) to move out earlier so that it can be fixed for the new tenants. And the landlord i... read full review »
