I thought I was booking through the hotel directly, but my confirmation showed I had somehow used get a room. I called and confirmed my room in Kansas City, and everything seems to be in order. The correct room is booked, and it shows paid in full. Only the amount I booked for came off my card.

I always stay at an embassy suite if I can. Booking directly off their site usually gets you the lowest rate, and the actual hotel is always clean. The staff never complains when you ask for a cab, and is usually helpful and cheerful. I've never had any issues.

The room I needed didn't book for the right date. I found myself stranded hundreds of miles from home, but Orbitz called the hotel and fixed the problem in less than thirty minutes.

I had Verizon for over five years. The reception is great as long as your phone is working correctly, and it's really fast. They have awful customer service and will not fix issues, especially if the issue is their mistake. Also don't expect to much for customer loyalty. They only care about new customers. You can't get even close to the same deals if you're already a customer.

Rent your text books from Amazon! It saves hundreds a semester and they are really good about getting it to you on time. I've never had a problem Amazon didn't promptly fix with any purchase.

I had this service for a few years. It wasn't that bad, but the upload and download speeds are "up to". This means it isn't really as fast as what you think you are paying for. My service was constantly interrupted, and the customer service reps generally don't help. Recently I moved to a new area, and Cable One would not allow me to cancel. I had to drive to their store to return the modem and was charged for service until I could make the trip!
