Shambles of a bus company

Shambles of a bus company, drivers are so rude, don't give you any change, don't give you your return ticket. App is useless, cannot be relied upon. They don't update their app when a bus stop is closed. You thank them at the end of your journey, and they don't even look at you.

Review of Ancestry.com


Rated 3 out of 5 stars

Great info, greedy for money owners

Got a dna test, and the data i got from that was unbelievable. The sources of information on their site, such as access to census data, limited news articles, potential matches and in general a lot of sources to research and build your family tree. However, once you have completed your dna test, and have your initial findings, then the site just becomes an endless money drain. You need to subscribe to their service to get any meaningful access to the data you have already paid for, for instance you cannot even seperate your matches by parent unless you subscribe, everything and gets more expensive, the more you need access to, News articles get flashed in your direction, but you can't see them unless you give them even more money, even if you are subscribed. It's a pity, as the owners have just become greedy and want more and more money from you, which i am no longer going to give them. If their pricing was cheper, more people might join, and everyone would benefit.

Hi there, Steve. Thank you for the candid feedback.

We're glad you found the initial DNA data and our census tools so powerful for building your tree! We completely hear your frustration regarding the cost of advanced features—like the parental matching breakdown—and the separate subscriptions required for things like historical newspapers.

Balancing the high costs of digitizing billions of global records with a fair pricing structure is a challenge, and feedback like yours is incredibly important as we evaluate how we bundle our features. We’ll certainly pass your thoughts along to our team.

Review of OUTPLAYED.com

Fantastic site

Fantastic site, with great support from the team, and also thousands of other like minded people. I first looked at it a few years ago, and decided it was too good to be true. How wrong was i. If you want to learn how to profit and take value from bookmakers and casinos, this is the site for you. It's not free, but the subscription is easily recouped 10 times over every month

Hi Steve,

Many thanks for your review, which is much appreciated.

I'm pleased to hear that you have been so impressed with the site, including our support team and the community. As you say, the matched betting community at Outplayed are fantastic, and full of knowledgeable and helpful matched bettors.

You are certainly not the first person to say that they thought matched betting was too good to be true, as it certainly seems to be the case when you first come across the idea. However, it is a very widely tried and tested method, and we have helped many thousands of members make many thousands of pounds each, over the last 9 years.

Please feel free to continue to get in touch if you need any more support.

Kind Regards,
Simon

Real hard sell tactics employed

Real hard sell tactics employed, constant phone calls, and emails pushing you to book quickly before you even have numbers of people. You then book, and are then pressured for deposits from yourself and the others in your party. Deposits are non-refundable, even if you try to cancel within a few days of booking.

Hi Steven,

We're sorry to hear about your experience regarding your booking.

Our aim is to ensure that all of our groups have the best opportunity to have the most fantastic weekends possible, and we do actively encourage booking things early to get the best rates and avoid disappointment.

The weekend in question happens to be May Bank Holiday weekend, which is one of the most popular times for Stag and Hen weekends. Prices escalate quickly and we're only able to hold quoted prices for a short amount of time before the cost increases again or there is no longer availability for the size of the group, therefore the quotes sent over were time-bound. We do apologise if this came across forceful and you felt rushed, however, this is most certainly not our aim and is simply just to ensure that we can secure the price we have quoted for a bank holiday weekend.

Your feedback has been passed on to a manager and we regret that we weren't able to help further with your booking on this occasion due to the cancellation.

Regards,
Chillisauce
