Bad choice

Before we deal with this week’s stories of revenge, we receive a plaintive email from Tobie Fysh.
Last week we covered Mike Gathergood’s story of how he created a web site of complaints against his holiday company when it refused him the compensation, extracting the compensation he wanted as a result.
‘His story of revenge is very close to mine,’ Tobie says. ‘The only problem is I don’t have my money yet.’ If you’re curious as to which firm has decided to play hardball, the clue is in the URL: his web site is www.firstchoicesucks.co.uk.

If anyone has their own story to tell about First Choice please send it to me and I'll add it to the site.

Well done to this man. He seems to be gaining publicity rapidly. As I understand it he is doing this all from his own pocket. Make sure you claim it back!
