I realized brand loyalty is something children do. Its something I saw kids get in fights over when i was in grade school and JR high. watching little kids get in fists fights over which is better a nintendo or sega master system is as pathetic as watching 40 year old rednecks fight over which is better their POS ford truck or the other guys POS chevy.

My list consists of corporations which have ripped me off, have tried to rip me off, have sold me a product that didn't work, or treated me like **** when I had a problem with their product. I could give a rat's bellybutton about society. This is about transactions between me and these companies.

1. walmart
2. kirshaw knives (the little flag with the 'made in usa' logo on the box, then you open it and see Japan stamped on the blade, a little research turned up they ship the knives over in the inner plastic bag, then put them in the retail box. the box was made in the usa)
3. any store or retailer that doesn't treat me as if they realise I pay their check

Bank of America. Worst customer service, ever.

AOL isn't far behind.

capt. apathy · « **Reply #28 on:** July 29, 2003, 10:10:12 AM »

oh and how could I forget Qwest comunications. worst customer service ever (double charged for a 'free' dsl modem it took 15 months to remove this $300 charge from my bill/credit. just one of many problems in the last 12 years). next year we will be able to get phone service through our cable tv line, and that will be the day qwest gets there last dime from me.

British Telecoms - worst customer services in the world, worst service in the world
Budweiser - tastes like yak's piss on a warm day
Fosters - see above
iEN - recent events and general reputation

Don't really have any others.
