Comments for Kyle Bunch : Vintage http://kylebunch.com/vintage The 2003-2007 Collection Sun, 23 Nov 2008 16:25:44 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.5.1 Comment on Dreamhost Facts (or A Holiday Moment to Reflect on How Bad Dreamhost Blows) by dhsux http://kylebunch.com/vintage/2006/12/dreamhost-sucks/#comment-270 dhsux Sat, 11 Oct 2008 22:41:37 +0000 http://www.kylebunch.org/blog/2006/12/dreamhost-sucks/#comment-270 DreamHost's poor customer service has led to a serious privacy invasion. When my client attempted to sign up for an account, the transaction hung halfway through. When customer service (which can only be reached by tedious email exchanges) "fixed" the problem, the pay by credit card option was no longer available. The customer service representative insisted that we use Google Payments. I proceeded, and then my client realized his financial information is now in the Google system. The worst possible scenario then came true. Instead of completing the transaction, Google called my client's bank for "preapproval". This was not to complete the transaction (which was never completed), but to gather information for Google's marketing. My client is furious, reviewing everyone's privacy policy, and is looking into ways to bring this problem up at the political, and possibly the legal, level. Throughout this whole situation, Dreamhost has been nothing but pig-headed. Every customer service representative ignores the case history and either refers us back to Google Payments or says patronizing things like we could have paid with the original credit card system. I offered them a solution where I quietly pay for the account using Google transactions, and they won't even let me help bail them out!!! I will never refer another client to dreamhost. Right now I'm looking for the best place to air this complaint publicly in as many places as possible. People have to know that when Dreamhost pushes people into using Google Payments, Google then has their financial information to aggregate and deploy for their own purposes. Addendum: Dreamhost customer representatives will also flame customers who complain on their forums. I know because one of their customer service representatives accidentally put his forum ID in an email with my customer service issue header on it.

]]> Comment on Del Taco vs. Taco Bell by Layne http://kylebunch.com/vintage/2004/07/del-taco-vs-taco-bell/#comment-248 Layne Fri, 22 Aug 2008 02:30:16 +0000 http://www.kylebunch.org/?p=63#comment-248 I agree Del Taco is much better than Taco Bell. I had never tried Del Taco, but we moved to St Louis area recently and I can't even think about eating Taco Bell again. Suprising for me, because I didn't even know they had Del Taco's in the midwest (I had lived in KC for 15 years and they don't have a single Del Taco). Anybody who seriously prefers Taco Bell would probably prefer to beef tongue over top sirloin. Just doesn't make sense :) I agree Del Taco is much better than Taco Bell.

I must admit that it's better than Taco Bell. A few notches up, but I only had their burrito. HUMONGOUS! Taco Bell nothing compared to Del as far as the the quantity. I tried Del’s in Toledo, OH.
