Yes it is. Apparently, from his reaction and reply, this is business as normal for him. It is time for this to stop.

I hadn't considered the AG's office. Thanks.

These kind of people usually know just exactly how far to push into the grey area! However, they ALL eventually push a little too far and get their @ss in a crack! Looks to me this might be that CRACK! Go after the SOB!

Roadkingron, Sorry to hear about the issues with both the CC company and 29 Dreams.

I think everyone on the forum should send them a nasty email, letting them know just how much bad press they are getting from screwing one customer.

I will send one to Betty and Tim (from the contact list on their website) letting them know I was happy to hear about their poor service so I don't waste my money with them. I will also let them know I will be telling my firends to avoid 29 Dreams also.

But Ron, I did read their website and it says all cabins have access to the bath house. So if I had read this, I would have not expected a bathroom in the cabin. Sorry, but maybe they aren't 100% to blame?

Anyone else want to send them an email? Just go to their website and the contact info is listed. Not sure if I'm allowd to post it here or not, but it's easy to find online. (29 Dreams Alabama)

Ron,

Just be careful to state only the facts. Don't do anything to be construed as slanderous.
I also say file a complaint with the Alabama AG office. Go on line they probably have the form on line. Good Luck

i would assume that since all cabins have access to the bath house, that there is a communal shower. but i would not automatically assume that my cabin did not have a toilet......

I plan to, his email reply was very unprofessional and uncalled for.

You know, wife and I ride through that area often. If he had been professional and courteous we would have stopped for lunch and a visit to the gift shop. But I guess since I "wouldn't make the cut" we won't.

Frank, I read your CC dilemma post. Sorry. What has happened to customer service? I just don't understand how companies plan to survive when they treat their customers this way.

Absolutely. I have a few choice words I would love to use for him but, as Sgt Friday would say, "the facts mam' and nothing but the facts".

Someone else mentioned the AG's office. I will do that today. Thanks

And remember, use Visa or AX for reservations. MasterCard will leave you hanging.
