    Would you make her pay you back?

    published Monday, March 28th, 2011 at 1:38 am by

    Question by Taylor’s Momma: Would you make her pay you back?
    My est friend was going to be my MOH in my wedding. I had a wedding planned for my hometown and had all the vendors booked. My friend kept urging me to have a beach wedding. She convinced me it would be cheaper because not as many people would attend and I wouldn’t have the high cost of flowers and decorations, etc. So I went with it. I cancelled all my vendors and lost about $ 1400. I realize now I should not have let her talk me out of the wedding I had dreamed of, but hind sight is 20/20.

    So we go on planning the beach wedding, I book everyones rooms on my credit card (my boss is a timeshare owner and it was much cheaper if they were in my name because we could use my bosses account). Everyone paid me back except my MOH, who kept saying she would. She owed me just under $ 400.

    I bought silk bouquets for me and her- hers was $ 44 and many other little things, jewelry, shoes, etc.

    Three weeks before my wedding she says she isn’t going because her boss will only give her enough time off to stay five days and thats not long enough to spend that much money. She is not apologetic, in fact she was kinda shitty acting like I should pay for EVERYTHING.

    Should I ask her to pay it back? We haven’t spoken in almost a week. I am recently unemployed and she makes good money. In fact I just saw on her FB that she is going to take the vacation time still, but is traveling elsewhere.

    Looks like you aren’t happy with this person, and it also sounds as if you and this person was pretty close, to you…. Not sure what is happening between the two of you but something else must of happened for it to get to this stage… But to go and ask for your money back, won’t help you out and won’t help with your friendship either… And is it worth going to all that trouble in trying to get your money back, it may cost you more then money trying to get what is owed to you in the long run….
    Why not try talking to this person, somewhere in public, like a cafe and see what the problem is or maybe you two could resolve it all…. I wouldn’t want to go in there asking for your money back not before you can talk it over with one another and face to face…….
    All the best in your marriage,…

    Question by It’s the hair: Company won’t refund my money.?
    Hello, I “signed up” for a timeshare about 4 weeks ago, which I canceled one day later. I made a large payment to them by a credit card which they were supposed to refund to my card, but as of today, they haven’t.

    What should I do?

    Best answer:

    Answer by Wayne Z
    Call the Credit Card company and dispute the charge.

    Many credit cards have online dispute processes. You log on to your account, click on the transaction and follow the steps to dispute the charge.

    Who else has been SCAMMED into buying a Cancun travel package from “Cancun Luxury Travel”?

    Question by Melissa Bla: Who else has been SCAMMED into buying a Cancun travel package from “Cancun Luxury Travel”?
    This bogus company goes by the name of “Cancun Luxury Travel” , or says “Sunny Getaways/Vacations” on your bank statement. I fell for buying a 5 nights all inclusive for $ 498 & my receipt said the money was going to be paid directly to the “hotel” today. Which is not true at all!! When you call to confirm, you have to pick a hotel, and pay $ 300 peak season fee, plus another $ 99 PER Person taxes. You think you are booked, but another lady calls you to start asking you jobs, age and if you’re married and then tries to get you to go on a 90 min timeshare presentation. When you refuse, the 1st company you paid calls you back claiming that you cancelled the trip by refusing the timeshare, when from the beginning they never said ANYTHING about a timeshare presentation or having to be married. They then say you have to basically go on a timeshare presentation or pick a different hotel, which then yet another company calls you “claiming” to work for the hotel, which all seams soooo sketchy and asking for the $ 99 PER person taxes, so $ 200. When I said I want to pay the hotel directly when I arrive in Cancun, they say “that’s not how it works” and will not confirm with the hotel until you pay. It’s basically just all a SCAM to get you to pay more money and god knows if the hotel will even have your reservation or a room. After researching the hotel, most ALL the reviews are bad and say that they wont even let you check in until you agree to go on a timeshare presentation & harass you the whole time you are there!
    Is there ANYONE ELSE out there who fell for this?? I want to go to the better business bureau and report this company!!!! PLEASE contact me!!!

    Answer by Kittysue
    if you feel you have been scammed, find out where the company is located (their head office) and report it to the State Attorney General’s office. The BBB has no enforcement capabilities – they will only record your complaint and the company’s rating may go down if they have a lot of complaints. But they can’t do anything about the business. The AGs office can fine them, take them to court, and order them to repay victims if indeed they did break any consumer laws

    Why can I not keep friendships?

    published Tuesday, March 15th, 2011 at 3:07 pm by

    Question by tarantinobuff: Why can I not keep friendships?
    I am an almost 30 year old woman, and I don’t have 1 friend that has been a true friend for any given amount of time. I just recently lost a couple of girlfriends that I’d befriended last year, and I began to think long and hard about this situation, realizing I don’t keep girls as friends for any longer than about a year. I’m not sure if I am the common denominator, or if I choose bad friends.

    Outsiders tell me it is because my friends are jealous. However, I see many successful, attractive women with the ability to keep friends, so I’m not sure that is the deal.

    it seems I lose friends when I am wronged, and I stand up for myself. While yes, I am quite assertive, I am not abrasive or rude and I know when to choose my battles. I simply ask questions, and apparently others do not appreciate being held accountable for their actions. Am I alone here? Is it my generation? Is it me?

    Quick run-down of recent situation: I asked a few girls to go on a trip using a timeshare of mine. They agreed and I paid a deposit to begin the search for our vacation. They decided to go on a trip with somone else but neglected to tell me. Instead of getting angry, I simply asked if I needed to cancel the search in order to get my money back. I was ignored, TWICE. I lost my deposit in the process, and when I confronted the girls, they all acted as if I was insane for being upset. One actually said not to blame her, that it was my fault I lost the money. This is not the only time people have treated me in this manner.

    Best answer:

    Answer by Mr. Taco
    It is hard to say, really, without knowing you. Based on the specific example you give at the end of this, I’d say the problem this particular time was definitely a matter of picking bad friends. Unless you’re leaving something out, I don’t see anything there that suggests you did anything wrong.

    That said, it is not your generation. Lots of people our age (I’m 35) have perfectly good friends. Being successful and assertive are not the problem either if you are not being abrasive.

    So based on what little information I have to go on here, I would say it is one of several things:

    1. There is something in your personality that attracts manipulative and selfish people. I am not sure how to figure out what exactly it is, however, without paying a visit to your local therapist.

    2. You ARE being abrasive or rude and are not aware of it. Impossible to say without knowing you, of course.

    3. It’s just a case of bad luck. Honestly, if I had to bet on the three, I’d go with this one. You sound to me like you’re approaching this in an intelligent, mature way. There is no real reason you shouldn’t have more and better friends.

    So the only advice I have (unless you want to give therapy a try and see if it gets you anywhere…maybe it will and maybe it won’t) is to just keep at it. Get out there and get involved with as many activities as you can so you meet more people, increasing your pool for friendship. Join a club. Do some volunteer work. Take a class. Whatever it takes. Then just keep being yourself and hope for the best!

    Good luck!
