Sunkistmarci says "Best rates Ever!" about AAA-Auto Club

Sunkistmarci — Wed, 07 May 2008 17:14:39 GMT

No company can compare to AAA's insurance rates. The 10% I saved by being an AAA auto club member didn't save me much on my car insurance, but with AAA it isn't needed.

I have never filed a claim with them before and that is why I can't comfortably give them 5 stars. Their customer service rocks, though. If you find an agent you like, you have direct access to them at any time and you don't have to deal with a different person {that may or may not "know" you} every time you call.

Sunkistmarci says "Best DVR Service - Bad Customer Service" about Dish network

Sunkistmarci — Sat, 15 Mar 2008 20:32:57 GMT

After reviewing all other options, we made the decision to use Dish again because of the DVR service. We use that more than any other device in our home. It is half the price of our cable companies DVR service, and you get double the hours.

At the time of sign up, I paid for two months of service upfront and expected a bill this month. I did not receive a bill, however my service was cut off today because I was 31 days late. I had the attitude it was possible that I had misunderstood or had a bill buried somewhere so I called to see if I could figure out what had happened. The customer service rep was very rude and repeatedly asked me how I was going to pay. I told her it depended on the outcome of our call and she said that since there was no record of return mail then I am responsible. How would I like to pay?

Since I'm not under contract, I feel like my options are open to shop around again.

Ok...several months later and I had a DVR issue. I called Dish...

Sunkistmarci says "Has all the features at half the price" about Kodak - EasyShare Z700 Digital Camera

The Kodak EasyShare Z700 has many bells and whistles, but the most valuable one in my opinion is the 5X optical zoom when most cameras have only 3X optical zoom. This allows your "eye" to get 5 times closer to the object than it really is. That is great for pictures of animals that scare easy, or just zooming in to get closeups.

This camera takes videos with audio that can be replayed on your camera, your computer and your tv. There are several picture taking modes that are easy to get to and easy to understand. Some of my favorites are; Sport for objects in motion, Party for indoor settings with lower light, Landscape and Night Landscape for distant scenes day or night, Close-up, and Self-portrait mode.

Using the features of this camera and the software that comes with it, even the most novice user of us all can take and make great pictures to share.
