Turkish Airlines - hidden cost for infants
After booking an international flight with my 1 year old daughter I found out that a bulkhead seat is not included in the cost with TA like it is on all other airlines I have ever flown with. There is absolutely no information about this during the booking process, where I paid extra for my child - something that many other airlines also provide free of charge. This is deceitful and misleading. In order to have a comfortable flight and ensure that my baby does not scream for 18 hours and disturb the rest of the passengers, I need to sit at a bulkhead. This will now cost me 4000 Norwegian Kroner extra - more than half of the original ticket price - in addition! I cannot cancel my ticket due to the restrictions TA has in place and so I am trapped.

Skype free unlimited calls hustle
<p>A few months ago I signed up to an offer that appeared on my desktop Skype profile to try limited calls for a month. </p> <p> </p> <p>But i could not make any calls at all, and had to buy Skype credit to keep calling my fiancé overseas. I assumed the free offer had not loaded.</p> <p> </p> <p>After a lot of overseas travelling I finally returned home, only to notice that every month Skyoe has been debitting my account for the full cost of the unlimited calls package - R140. And obviously when I cancel it takes a month to go through, so I can expect another debit next month. </p> <p> </p> <p>What a bad way of doing business, feel like I've literally had the cash stolen out of my pocket.</p>

ABSA makes it impossible to close Credit Card
I personally went to Sea Point ABSA to close my credit card account. I paid the balance owing in cash and received a receipt along with a guarantee that the account had been closed.<br> <br> At the end of the month I received another bill for credit card charges that month. realising this was a mistake, I contacted the relevant person (a lengthy and painful process) and was assured that the problem had been resolved.<br> <br> This month I have received an ADDITIONAL bill for another month fees, despite my closing the account months ago.<br> <br> I think ABSA is the worst bank in South Africa and I wish I had never banked with them.<br> <br> *DON'T OPEN AN ABSA ACCOUNT - they will never let you close it!!!!*
