I"m not normally the type to go over board with a complaint, but I'm really unhappy with this company and I thought I would warn all of my fellow Dis Board readers.

Denise, Thank you for your constructive critism I gave your address to our
person that sends out the checks ansd I will find out when they are sending
it out to you When I find out I'll email you to be on alert that its on its
way. Thom



My next two e-mails

10-27-03just a reminder. It has been almost two weeks and I have not heard from you yet.

11-10-03

This is a perfect example of why I will not be referring you to any of my friends or family in the future. You continue to fail to follow thru with what you promise over and over again. It has been almost a month since you promised a refund and a voucher for free service on our next trip, and I'm still waiting to " be on alert that its on its way."


I Don't think I ever hear from them But I know I will never use them again


Ps. Sorry My 1st post was such a Neg. one
 
The company name was your ride.net I'm not sure why it didn't show up on my first post.

Denise
 
your ride.net was deleted from your post automaticly i do not think u r allowed to post certian things..... but when i tryed to post youride with out the space it came up stars

did u get the check???
 
I think your note to the owner was great! You hit the nail on the head!

Also, The company name is blanked out because they are "banned" from posting here. Thom continued to advertise his service on this board without paying a sponsorship fee. Since those fees keep this board free for the rest of us I think it is only just.
 

I still have not heard from him about my check. I'm sure I will never see it. I feel much better knowing that I have warned others about his service or shall I say lack of.

I'm really not surprised he was trying to get some free add time here.

So who does everyone else use for transportion? now that we are DVC'ers I'm shopping for a new driver
 
Uh Oh...........this is scary......I am planning on using them for the first time in 3 1/2 weeks! I will be sure to call a couple of days before to confirm that everything is set!

Thanks for you post. Hopefully I will have a better experience than you did!
 
Check with your credit card company - maybe you are still within your time frame to dispute the transaction. You could indicate all of the above items on the dispute and indicate what you are willing to be billed for etc. They give the merchant an opportunity to respond and if they don't prove it the other way basically you get your refund.
 
Chip- I had called and spoke with Thom twice before we left once aweek before (he hadn't remembered about the second car we needed) then again the day before our trip. We also called and reminded him during our trip after he forgot to pick up a few people who went home before us. He still forgot Car seats.

BE VERY VERY CAREFUL


I can't call the credit card company since I paid him cash. We had a group of people all paying their own share. Cash was the easy way to go. I never thought the service would be so bad. We always use our credit card for everything (have to earn those Disney dollars)
