    I hate gyms so much. My wife’s gym closed and moved and they never told her and kept charging her. She got charged for months for a gym she literally never stepped foot into or signed up for or was told that her contract was sold to another location. And when she called them to ask about it they had the audacity to say they couldn’t contact corporate and that the manager was busy talking to the regional manager. You know, corporate. So corporate was literally there. Idk if there’s any sort of statute of limitations but I have half a mind to take them to small claims court over it.

    Also Expedia. Stole money from us. The website said no credit card required but it was a lie. When my wife went to get the rental car they wouldn’t give it to her. Expedia wouldn’t refund her nor give her store credit for another rental. Even ignoring the false advertising, she didn’t get the rental. It wasn’t like something where some.kod accidentally buys something on some.game and you can argue “well you actually received the goods so we can’t refund you” because she literally never received the goods.

    But I shouldn’t give this shit any mental energy. It’s ancient history. I’ve moved on. My mental sanity is worth more than the time I’ve spent stressing about it and the money we could potentially get back, but it’s hard to really believe that sometimes.

      Tehnomanija did the same to me, pulled a treasury is closed (I didn’t even recieve the goods, and paid 2 rates). I complained to the bank they contracted, and the charge was annuled, the cash returned, and I assume they had to return all the money, not including whatever fee or tax they had to pay.

      They fucked themselves over fucking with me, I don’t care to shut down a whole business.

      1. Credit card chargeback - get your money back for the unfilled service.
      2. Call the credit card company and ask them for a “vendor block” so that your card / account can never be used to pay anything for that vendor again.
