Kendra commented on Worst Company In America 2008 "Sweet 16": American Airlines VS Microsoft, at 8:06 PM on Jun 17 That's easy- American Airlines. They stranded me in an airport for 10 hours with no food vouchers, no hotel offer, and no way to escape (I didn't have a license or old enough to rent a car). They PERSONALLY ruined my family's entire weekend - my sister's wedding. I thought arriving a day and a half (a journey that should have only lasted two hours) early was enough! more » [consumerist]

Kendra commented on Bank Of America Tries To Ruin Your Vacation For Your Own Protection, at 8:31 PM on Jun 2 BoA has been repeatedly, numerous times, denied access to accounts while overseas. In April 2006 - I was barred from making any withdrawls MUCH TO THE EMBARASSMENT OF ME IN FRONT OF MY NEW SO that I was visiting overseas - while in NZ. I couldn't even make a purchase for food on my trip home. I even called a MONTH AHEAD to ask them to put a note in my account, and then ask them if I was able to make withdrawals while not stateside, and then asked them if I could make pin-pad purchases (as most don't accept credit here due to merchant fees). Thanks, BOA! (Starving you while you're not stateside since 2006.) more » [consumerist]
