Why does the UN ignore my cost saving tips???

Why a limo?  Why not just go to the park and tell a bunch of homeless that the first one there gets a case of Mad Dog.  That would cost about $20.

Does the bill say "E&OE" or "Errors and Omissions Excepted" or "Errors and Omissions Excluded" anywhere? If so, they are entitled to reclaim the difference if they can prove the original amount was in error. They do sound unreasonable to try and ask for such a large amount so quickly, but there is nothing legally preventing it.\n\nIf it doesn't say it, they are on more shaky ground

The two dollars that was a tip to the bellhop is not added to the $27 to give $29 as the last sentence states.  It is subtracted from the $27 paid by the three men ($9 each), giving $25 (which is how much the room cost).\n\nSo basically, each man paid $8.33 for the room, and $0.67 each to the bellhop.  This gives the $25 room charge, $2 tip and the $3 change from the original $30.\n\nThere is no missing dollar.

you're wasting your time.  I just go to priceline or expedia.  It's all on the web now, a monkey could do it.

Nope, that's just business. And its bad customer service. \n\nCancel your order. Time to find a new company to deal with.  \n\nThank goodness you didn't already pay for it.

PER YOU RECENT INPUT -be nice, consider no letter at all. Talk to them in person and let them know you have had to endure increases and you need to increase your rates. Ask them for their input as to what they would consider reasonable. In this way, what they say may be fine. If it is too much, you can knock it down (how great that would be!), if it is not enough, tell them the truth, they do now want to lose you. Either way, it is sort of their decision as well - this is what friends are for. Not that they are necessarily firends, but it will endear you to them and make you a much more valuable person to them.\n\nOut of curisity, what type of graphics do you specialize in? Please do not answer if you feel this is too personal.\nThank you.\n\nFIRST ATTEMPT AT AN ANSWER:\nHow close are you to them?\n\nNot close, just professional?\nA letter that is straightforward, something along the lines of:\n\nDear XXX,\n\nI have valued your business now for over XXX. I am sorry to say that due to recent increases to the cost of my doing business,  I have found it necessary to raise my hourly rates from $XXX to $XXX as of such and such a date.\n\nI apologize for any inconvenience this may cause.\n\nIf you have any questions, please contact me either by phone or in person so I may answer them for you.\n\nSincerely,\nXXXX\n\nCloser to you than that?\n\nHi XXXX,\n\nDoing work for you has been very enjoyable, I want to thank you for trusting me with your graphic needs.\n\nRecently, I have had to deal with rent, utility, and fuel expenses. Due to these new costs, I must increase my charges in order to continue serving your needs. I have worked hard to keep my hourly rates at XXX for as long as I could, but as of XX XX I will be billing at the rate of XX XX.\n\nI am truly sorry if this causes any undue hardship, please call me if there are any issues I should know about. I will call you within the next week to follow-up.\n\nThank you so-and-so,\n\nXXXX

put your X somewhere else... and tell everyone who'll listen just how pathetic they are. write to your local paper..and make your observations official. write to the leader of the council, and have it raised at the next council meeting..have it minuted and demand a written response. (as is your right).\n\ni live in coventry..our wonderful council just spent bazillions on knocking down a local landmark and building a clock.... theyve just had a massive overspend, and now are taking the 3 quid a week off special needs people...and charging disabled people to park at the new super hospital... but thats what happens when we get a conservative council... the rich and the greedy always come before the poor and the needy...

The United Nations is working on a laptop program which will allow many individuals to purchase them for about $100 each.  I'm not sure who in your country to contact but you might try http://www.un.int/ireland  or call your local United Nations Association (UNA ) for help. Good luck.

I have never tipped for the delivery of a mattress or appliance.  Many stores nowadays charge a delivery fee.  I have also never had anyone even stand around as if waiting for a tip when it comes to a mattress or appliance.

Because they are liars. It's good you get rejected though, because the interest rates and hidden fees are RIDICULOUS. You should send back the application (since the postage is already  paid for you) and write NO THANKS on it. Since they're paying for postage, you just wasted 39cents of their money, and for some reason, that gives me pleasure.

That is up to the finance company. Some will repo it if you're late two or three payments. I would try to get them caught up ASAP or call them and see if they will work a new payment plan up with you or else you might be walking really soon.

Send a polite email saying it wasn't clear that you had to pay.\n\nAssuming you haven't used it then they may be ok with you.

Over the past 3 weeks I have received roughly 3000 mails asking for help to move millions.\nAfrica does not have as much money to pay the % I have been offered in the last 6 months!\ndo an internet search for "419"\nEducate yourself and do not get caught ;)
