FTC Complaint Filed for onestepahead.com and storkavenue.com 

I used a one-time-only email address when ordering from One Step Ahead in April of 2002. This one-time-only email address received an unsolicited commercial email (UCE / spam) advertisement from Stork Avenue today. This usage of the email address does not appear to be permitted by the privacy policy displayed on One Step Ahead's web site.

So I filed a complaint today on the FTC site at Complaint Form.

AT&T Wireless 

I have been a customer of 2 wireless accounts on AT&T Wireless for over two years. About a year ago, they messed up on their system upgrade and removed the ability for folks who get a employer discount to view minutes.

THEY NEED TO FIX THIS!!

"View Minutes Unfortunately, we show that your account type association is ineligible for the View Minutes feature. To learn more about signing up for View Minutes, please see View Minutes FAQs. For any further questions please call Customer Service at 1-800-888-7600 and reference message 2323.

Coca Cola can't keep machines full & button lies 

Pet Peeve number 1: The coke machines in my building repeatedly keep running out of my choice of soft drink. Repeated contacts with the company have resulted in little improvement over 6 months time.

Pet Peeve number 2: The machine won't tell you it is sold out until you put money in. Press the button without paying and it doesn't tell you the selection is sold out.

VISA convenience checks are sent after I asked them to be stopped 

First Citizens Bank sent us VISA convenience checks last month after I asked them to be stopped last year.

Ticketmaster Spamming 

We specifically opted out of ticketmaster's email lists when we purchased tickets a few days ago, but now they have sent us spam and promise to send more. Ticketmaster needs competition to their monopoly.
