Captain is a great guy! I've dealt with Chris several times and never had any problems, very decent. Unfortunately, I am now blocked on FB and cannot write there. FB is a dump with extremely inconvenient navigation and a bunch of scammers. Several blacks wrote to me there, calling me a distant heir of some Nigerian princes and asking for money grin

I have known the Capt for a few years now. He has on more then one occasion gone out of his way to help me. Any time that I have seen a customer with a problem the Capt. has worked quickly to resolve it. I have also seen customers start bitching to others before they even talk to him. He is not known for putting up with much BS either and that bothers some people.

I was frustrated by all the name calling and the one sided conversation going on the page.

My quandary is I am on restriction by Facebook for clicking on a "See More" button on one of the Reels that appear on my Facebook stream. In doing so, a scammer added 500 pages of junk to my two Facebook pages. One of the disadvantages of Facebook is the Help Center is almost impossible to contact to get relief or "erase" those 500 pages on my own time.

FB came to my rescue to eliminate the 500 pages, but they figured I was mostly to blame, so I have been put on restriction for 1 YEAR, starting in October 2024. I cannot participate or add to a string of comments in someone else's posting.

I regret the incident, but I see it on Facebook time and time again. Folks seem to avoid contacting the source for relief or answers, and instead relieve their frustration by "hanging their dirty laundry" out for friends to see. Even the Randall Shop has been experiencing this.

thats a terrible fb experience

on fb i clicked on an sale ad for 511 store, looked like the website and ordered some stuff and paid ccard and the email receipt was all in Chinese, then found the real 511 website that was the same layout but different prices, i contacted my ccard used and got it stopped but they said if i placed the order its not technically fraud, i was lucky but i will never click on any advertisements on fb.....fb has become the scammers website

My experience when I first started using FB was an offer to buy a Honda Generator at a great price.
I sent my payment using a credit card on Paypal and never received the generator.
I contacted Paypal. After 2 weeks they said the seller had a receipt for delivery from the USPS that it had been delivered to my mailbox.
I asked how they got a generator into a mail kiosk and it was an obvious fake receipt?
Paypal never refunded the money.
I contacted the credit card company and got the same response.
I complained to the cc company that I was a senior citizen that had been defrauded by FB, Paypal, and now my cc company.
I got an immediate refund from the cc company.
Colorado's AG at the time was really tough on crimes against anyone over 65, considered a senior citizen and at risk of fraud.

The Captain has always been great to deal with in my actions. I have not been able to get what I wanted because it was not available. That is no reflection on him. He is a stand up guy in my opinion. He does not need my praise. His actions speak for him.
I hate this is going on.
