So I got greedy and became part of the problem that is with Amazon. So many of us count on the POSITIVE consumer reviews to make an informed decision before they make their purchases, I know I count on them myself. For some time now I have noticed that things I have been buying are not matching the pos reviews left. I received a card in the mail that if I left a POS review for a particular item I'd recently purchased that I'd receive a $30 Amazon Gift Card, which I thought "what harm could it cause from my one positive review". The problem came when I left that pos review and then sent to the specified email address with the required screenshot of the review it bounced back stating the email address didn't even exist. Great way to sell items, cause many wouldn't pay attention and just leave their pos review, thus lying to Prime members that are trusting those reviews to make informed decisions before spending their hard earned money. Amazon should be "policing" their sellers and their customer reviews to stop this, but they are all about making profit thats it! I won't be part of the problem again and will pay closer attention to the reviews making sure to scroll down through them better. I like Amazon Prime as its super convenient, gets the order to me in 1-3 days, and is helping some many HONEST small business owners to make a living. Buying POSITIVE reviews is not HONEST!

First off, I purchased a used iPhone from OfferUp, which was a mistake. Turned out the phone was Sim Locked and basically worthless. A $300 paper weight. I found Direct Unlocks which is a European company who you pay to do Sim Unlocks. There is a "Pre Order" of $25 British Pounds or $35 US, then they take up to 30 days to actually verify and unlock the phone. I paid for this service over 4 months ago. DirectUnlocks did in fact unlock my iPhone, taking 30 days to do so. I had been using the phone for 3 months at least when I received a 2nd bill saying that I owed them an additional $35 Pounds or $40.57 US OR ELSE! LOL! At this point I could have easily paid for a brand new iPhone and regretting I did not do so. BEWARE, before paying for this service!

At this point I still have American family as my auto insurer and insurer of other things. My agent I use is located in Salt Lake City Utah, and I have to say that he and his other half have been amazing ALWAYS. Here is my "beef" with American family and I am positive it's the same way with other insurance companies and that is their "preferred" auto body shops that they want people to take their cars to. What I found out after my first experience is that the area manage or district manager who agrees to or disagrees to repairs is "in bed" with those owners of the preferred shops and I would not doubt for second that the manager is receiving some sort of a kick back to continue to use particular shops in your area. I found out that the shops are at the mercy of these district managers and what is going to be done to either fix your car on the cheap or fix it right. I am working on contacting the Utah State Attorney General after my experience. I just wanted to make consumers aware that at least with American Family your repairs on your automobile properly is at the discretion of the district manager. Not sure what we can do about it or which if not all have their "preferred" auto body companies they are getting their biggest kickbacks from if they are. I don't know for sure.

I am having a hard time grasping the fact that in a Republican majority state that there are so many Liberally ran news groups right here in Utah as there are! If you doubt it look into their articles especially recent ones. This review is being posted August15,2020. I don't consider myself Republican or Democrat as I vote based on a candidates moral character, values, virtues, and whether or not they are firm believers in God which says an awful lot about that person in my personal opinion. When a news paper, news media outlet, or a social media news group only go completely to the right or left and base their news on bias and half truths then they are no longer a reputable news source, again my opinion. So far KSL and The Salt Lake Tribune are known leftist news groups squashing anyone that speaks their minds in their comments sections and just not posting those comments at all if they do not go along with their political ideology. A person might as well go to the grocery store and start picking up issues of the National Enquire or the like for your news.

So it seems that KSL.com in Salt Lake City, Utah a Mormon owned news and social media outlet is officially Totally Liberal based! Today posting that 57% of polled Utahans don't want to see trump serve a second term, but if that were to happen a Liberal Democrat would become President in 2020, something that the majority of Utahans would be against! There are Liberal hard leaning articles posted and someone wants to post a comment thats against the opinion of the articles they wont even allow it unless the comment is totally in their favor! Time to drop KSL!
