OubaasDik Posted May 20, 2013 Report Share Posted May 20, 2013 Holiday Complaints Whilst researching Thomas Cook Holidays for my forthcoming Ebook I cameacross this list of complaints they've received from previous customers. I'msure it will help brighten up your Wednesday morning: 1. "I think it should be explained in the brochure that the local storedoes not sell proper biscuits like custard creams or ginger nuts." 2. "It's lazy of the local shopkeepers to close in the afternoons. Ioften needed to buy things during 'siesta' time - this should be banned 3. "On my holiday to Goa in India, I was disgusted to find that almostevery restaurant served curry. I don't like spicy food at all." 4. "We booked an excursion to a water park but no-one told us we had tobring our swimming costumes and towels." 5. A tourist at a top African game lodge overlooking a water hole, whospotted a visibly aroused elephant, complained that the sight of thisrampant beast ruined his honeymoon by making him feel "inadequate". 6. A woman threatened to call police after claiming that she'd been lockedin by staff. When in fact, she had mistaken the "do not disturb" sign on theback of the door as a warning to remain in the room. 7. "The beach was too sandy." 8. "We found the sand was not like the sand in the brochure. Your brochureshows the sand as yellow but it was white." 9. A guest at a Novotel in Australia complained his soup was too thick andstrong. He was inadvertently slurping the gravy at the time. 10. "Topless sunbathing on the beach should be banned. The holiday wasruined as my husband spent all day looking at other women." 11. "We bought 'Ray-Ban' sunglasses for five Euros from a street trader,only to find out they were fake." 12. "No-one told us there would be fish in the sea. The children werestartled." 13. "There was no egg slicer in the apartment..." 14. "We went on holiday to Spain and had a problem with the taxi driversas they were all Spanish..." 15. "The roads were uneven.." 16. "It took us nine hours to fly home from Jamaica to England but it tookthe Americans only three hours to get home." 17. "I compared the size of our one-bedroom apartment to our friends'three-bedroom apartment and ours was significantly smaller." 18. "The brochure stated: 'No hairdressers at the accommodation'. We'retrainee hairdressers - will we be OK staying there?" 19. "There are too many Spanish people. The receptionist speaks Spanish.The food is Spanish. Too many foreigners now live abroad'" 20. "We had to queue outside with no air conditioning." 21. "It is your duty as a tour operator to advise us of noisy or unrulyguests before we travel." 22. "I was bitten by a mosquito - no-one said they could bite." 23. "My fiancé and I booked a twin-bedded room but we were placed in adouble-bedded room. We now hold you responsible for the fact that I findmyself pregnant. This would not have happened if you had put us in the roomthat we booked." 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HadEnoughofJuju Posted May 23, 2013 Report Share Posted May 23, 2013 People like this should be dragged out of their stupid boxes and shot for crimes against intelligence. But these were really funny though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
