I asked for a salad bar plate and that's what I got instead. ;/

Four Loko will not be seeing one red cent from me anymore.

Their inept ability to warn their customers of the impending hangover or the fact wearing a crash helmet is ineffective in preventing injuries at dirt rave events or even windrash is something I can no longer endorse.

so much hatt for bofa. guess we know who doesnt keep money in their accounts now, heehe

[Wait,What?]

Time Warner- we had to deal with them cause they took over the area we lived in for a year, felt like my head was going to explode everytime I had to deal with those assholes.
Bank of America- thank god I have never had an account with them, I learned my lesson from everyone else telling me what complete assholes they were, and that they only hiring total idiots to work there.
1st Convience Bank- Had them for about 6 months, I paid my bills, kept close track of everything, and when I went to pull out my money and close my acct to move to Chase, they said I was $1100 in the hole. I mean WTF!?! I know for a fact I wasnt. And on top of that I wasnt the onyl one they were doing that too from my old work. This one guy was told he was $6700 in the hole and needed to fix it right away. Buncha bullshit.
U-haul- This company sucks so fooking bad. But I seem to keep going back to them everytime I rent cause I cant find anyone else. They always over charge, make up excuses why the stuff isnt available when I ordered it, and on 4 different times said I damaged the truck even tho, I pointed out all the bumps and scratches before hand on the walkthru and they mark it down. I hate them hate them.


thats it for now I'm sure I'm forgetting something but oh well...

EDIT: MCI/WorldCom/Verizon.
They are basically verizon now but when i got my first cell phone in 97 I was with WorldCom and they merged with MCI and changed my whole plan up and I got a bill for 700 dollars. They said that by using the phone I made a verbally binding contract even though I was never told of the change of service. I told them to fuck off and that I was calling a lawyer and they dropped the act real quick.

Dude, that happened to me!

Taco Cabana across the street from the Whiskey Bar. We ate there after 11pm last night, me, James Prichard and Shelby and stepped across the street for no more than ten minutes. They had someone sitting in the parking lot in a small red pickup calling tow trucks and they towed my car away. The towing company told Shelby it was about $150 if we paid before midnight and $450 if paid after midnight. I asked to speak to the manager of Taco Cabana and he would not speak other than to say he called the police. Mind you, I had nothing to drink and was calm, courteous and actually nice. He refused to give his name.

What they do is this: they have cops on the payroll at Taco Cabana. People get towed and often have been drinking, so the people get arrested for public intoxication and hauled off just like the car. We watched two other cars towed within less than an hour while we waited for a ride from Fort Worth. This is a real racket.

We spoke with a nice couple who came in to eat and a cockroach attacked the girl's toe (don't wear sandles to Taco Cabana) and I picked it up to mail to the health department.

I am now home at 2:22 AM and will be drafting proper documents tomorrow to address this situation. Has anyone else had problems or experiences with this Taco Cabana with respect to towing or cockroaches or any other problems of any nature whatsoever?

Thanks.

How is it a racket if you parked in their parking lot, but afterwards took the liberty to then walk across the street to go to a bar/club while still using their parking lot?

I don't know about the cops being on some sort of Taco Cabana payroll (lol) considering they, along with their paddy wagon, sit 10 feet across the street from the joint? Maybe they chuck a few quesadillas at the pigs along with free refills, I dunno.

Not saying the whole tow truck biz in this city can't be a racket sometimes but seems to me you fell into a web they've developed nicely after years of having to deal with drunken Greenville lunacy.
