I am currently involved in a wonderful year-long relationship with a man I've known for ten years. We dated briefly all those years ago, but I wound up marrying someone else. To make a long story short, I should have listened to the fates back then. Recently, I was contacted by another man I dated briefly right after high school. Our relationship ended in a gross misunderstanding. I thought I was getting signals from him to get lost, so I did. I was very hurt, and I have thought about him many...
Ronald Crossley's Hamilton Beach toaster oven doesn't work. And apparently, neither does the Hamilton Beach customer service department. How does he get this appliance fixed? I returned a Hamilton Beach toaster oven earlier this year because of functional and design problems that made it useless. Specifically, the upper element remains "on" in any mode and burns food. Before the return window passed, I emailed Hamilton Beach asking for at least a confirmation of their having received the...
Evonne Hopkins books a room at a bed & breakfast that doesn't have a bathroom. Can she get her money back? I booked a room at a bed & breakfast in New Albany, Ind., through SuperTravel, an Expedia affiliate. When I arrived, I discovered the room didn't have an attached bathroom. You had to go downstairs to access the bathroom. The SuperTravel website did not tell us about this. We asked for a refund, but SuperTravel refused, citing its no-refunds policy. I contend that what we purchased was not...

I work in a factory, and we have supervisors who play favorites. They have about six girls who can do no wrong, and they have easier jobs than the rest of us. These girls go out after work to bars, and that is why they are in with the supervisors. The boss over these supervisors will not do anything because his boss is the father of one of these supervisors. So long as “Daddy boss” is still there, this boss will not do anything. One girl played around and made the machinery malfunction for an...
Krishnamurthy Viswanathan's hotel room in London is smaller than he expects and has poor ventilation. Can he get his money back? Hotels.com is refusing to honor the terms of our reservation, and I would like your help getting a refund. My wife and I made a refundable reservation and prepaid the entire amount of $3,630 (and $504 worth of OneKeyCash) on Hotels.com for a 10-day stay at Lost Property St Paul's London - Curio Collection by Hilton. The rules said we could cancel without penalty....
PayPal won't refund an unauthorized charge on John Boham-Cook's account, even though it reversed two others by the same fraudster. How can he get the company to see things his way? I had three unauthorized transactions on my PayPal account recently. PayPal blocked one of them and issued a refund. A short while later, PayPal refunded the second fraudulent transaction. But the third transaction, for $2,600, is still in my account. All of these transactions were made by the same fraudster at the...

Something in my life is weighing heavily on my mind, and I don't talk to anyone about it. I married my husband when he was 21 and I was 20. After being married six months I found out I was pregnant with our daughter. She was and is the apple of our eyes. She just graduated from college and is doing well in her new career. Our marriage was not easy. It was constant chaos. I felt as though I had a baby and a 15-year-old son. My husband drank and stayed out late, and when he was home, I was told I...
Steve Feiertag's flights from Palm Beach to Reykjavik are messed up, but Chase Ultimate Rewards won't help him fix them. Is he about to lose $5,000? Last year, my wife and I booked a cruise around Iceland. We bought business class tickets from Palm Beach, Fla., to Reykjavik through JetBlue and Icelandair using our Chase Ultimate Rewards points. However, shortly before we left, Chase erroneously downgraded our tickets to economy class. I discovered the error when I checked our reservation a...
What's wrong with Britt Lane's bed? And why won't Ashley Furniture fix it for her? She's been sleeping on the floor since she ordered the furniture from the retailer. I recently bought a new bed from Ashley Furniture. The company delivered the bed with missing parts. Ashley Furniture has not provided the correct parts to make the bed functional. When I call customer service, the reps hang up or put me on hold indefinitely. I visited the store near me in Joplin, Mo., and asked for a copy of my co...
