eflynn says "The Best Card" about MyPoints - Rewards Visa Card

eflynn — Tue, 24 Jun 2008 11:17:28 GMT

This card is the best! I pay most of my monthly bills through it, as well as shopping for groceries, etc.. I pay the bill in full every month, so there is never any interest. I save the points until around October, then I cash the points in. It is a great way to get Christmas shopping done for free! Also, If you purchase items online thru My Points, you get extra points!...

eflynn says "Run as fast as you can!" about Allstate

I was with Allstate for about 12 years. I had both my auto & homeowners insurance with them. Every 6 months my premium increased. (I had a completely clean driving record & great credit.)

Then, I was rear-ended while sitting at a red light. What a nightmare! Allstate immediately sent me a notice stating my insurance was being cancelled at my next renewal. Then, they would not pay for the damage to my vehicle unless I admitted fault?

Florida is a no fault state which means you pay for your own medical regardless of fault, but the property damage should be paid by the at fault party. The lady who hit me was trying to deny fault, so her insurance would not pay. After 6 months of fighting, I ended up paying for the damage & storage fees myself!

I finally hired a lawyer & sued both the lady who hit me AND my own insurance company, Allstate. It took 6 1/2 years to settle because Allstate & the other insurance company used their clout and money to fight me. I should mention I was out of work...

eflynn says "Great service" about AT&T

I have been with T-Mobile & Sprint in the past, and I find AT&T definitely surpasses the other companies. I had constantly had unresolved connectivity problems with Sprint. I had to literally stand in the middle of my road to get reception at my house! (I discovered my neighbor also had Sprint when we met in the middle of the road one evening!)

I didn't have any connection problems with T-Mobile, but they have extremely rude, unresponsive customer service reps. I had a problem with my billing & they were offensive, insinuating I was lying. Once I proved my case, their attitude did not change. The CSR's working in the stores are rude also. I guess it's just their company's nature.

AT&T has been wonderful. While they could improve on the wait time for a CSR, once you reach a rep, they are extremely open-minded & helpful. Pleasant customer service goes a long way! I have not had any reception or phone problems with them. I've been with them for about 5 years now.

eflynn says "Great quality dvd's - easy to use" about Memorex MRX-530LE

I had a difficult time loading the program on my computer because I am on DSL. The antivirus program runs constantly & I didn't know how to disable it. Once I found someone who knew how to shut the antivirus program down, the program was easy to install.

I had tried another dvd program previously & the dvd's it produced were horrible. The picture was shaky, would freeze, etc. I figured I give this one a try & I am pleased with the results!

I made a home slideshow of various family events throughout the year as a Christmas present. I was able to add music and captions to the pictures very easily. Some of the pictures I used were not of the best quality. This program enabled me to correct each picture indivually as I was making the slide show.

The program is really easy to use, the instructions very easy to understand.

My resulting dvd is clear both picture and music wise. I am proud to present it as a gift!

I have not attempted to use the lightscribe capabilities yet, as I do not have any...
