The Nucleus Cafe L.L.Chas a weekend policy of no pickups on the weekend for any customer. This policy has been in effect for more than years and does not single anyone out but is designed to meet the needs of in-house customers because demand is so high during those times. We do allow pickups on wend-fridays unless again we are overwhelmed and cannot get a pickup order done in a reasonable time. We certainly would never single one person. I spoke with the person who issued this complaint and explained our policy. He then used profanity towards us and threatened to call the Revdex.com and sue us which at that point we disconnected the call. We will be passing this complaint on to our legal team and if we feel that he continues to harass us by not giving him take out food on the weekend we will pursue legal actions against this individual.Sincerely, [redacted] owner/operator

Revdex.com:
I have reviewed the offer made by the business in reference to complaint ID [redacted], and have determined that this proposed action would not resolve my complaint:
Travel Leaders inflated the prices for car rentals when they booked an overseas vacation for us.  The actual car rental prices were 401.45 and 134.70 for their commission for a total of 536.15.  When the package was booked by Travel Leaders, they used vouchers for [redacted] Car Rental  and we paid a total of 898.00 to Travel Leaders for those vouchers.  I have no problem with his commission added to the rental price fees, but the price is the price.  He claims that the reservation vouchers were booked by "estimate".  While that is all well and good, the amount of approximately 341.00 that I paid to Travel Leaders needs to be refunded to me.  Its the same as if I have work done on my house.  The contractor writes an estimate for me, does the work and then charges me.  If the price is lower than the estimate, I pay less.  If the charges are more than the estimate, I pay more.  These car rental charges were significantly less than what I paid to Travel Leaders and I expect to be refunded this amount.  The money had to go somewhere. [redacted] didn't receive it and neither did I, so where did it go?  Furthermore, is Mr. [redacted] doing this to his other clients without their knowledge?  I really think this kind of incident needs to be investigated further.  
In addition, Travel Leaders booked a scheduled tour for us to visit the [redacted] in  the amount of 102.32  at 2 PM on Wednesday, August 14, 2014.  Our train (which they also booked) from London did not arrive in Paris until 3:30 PM and by the time we got to our hotel, checked in, unloaded our luggage and headed to the museum, it was almost 5 PM.  The museum closed at 5 that day so we were unable to visit this attraction which we paid for.  Mr. [redacted] also refuses to refund this money. 
Bottom line, I have attempted to work with Mr. [redacted] to resolve this matter and have repeatedly urged him to do the right thing.  In my opinion, he has done everything he can to skirt the issue and avoid ta[redacted] responsibility for his business.  
I am currently working with his corporate office to resolve this issue because he simply refuses to take responsibility for this.  His correspondence to me has had a much similar tone to the correspondence you received from him. 
Whatever assistance you can offer in this matter would be greatly appreciated.
Regards,
[redacted]

The $60 will be refunded to the customer.My business partner, [redacted], has spoken to the customer directly about the situation. [redacted] has told them they will be getting the refund.Our accounting department will send the refund by Monday.Thank you,Many thanks,[redacted]

Review: We booked a vacation through this company on June 10, 2014. Our vacation started 08/09/2014 and ended 08/20/2014. The travel agent repeatedly over charged us for car rental fees, booked us for activities to take place when were not even in the country where the event took place and refused to give us an itemized bill for every facet of the vacation (air fare, their fees, etc.) I addressed these issues as soon as I returned to the states on August 21, 2014. The business [redacted], continues to stall stating that he is researching with all of the vendors that were included in our booking. I have repeatedly asked him for a refund for the following as contained in our email correspondence below:

[redacted]:

Thanks for spea[redacted] with me earlier today. I was able to get copies of both vouchers and have attached them as you have requested. Please note that the upgrade charges for the [redacted] rental in the amount of 31.33 EU was for a GPS unit which we did request since our personal GPS unit did not work in the [redacted] rental car we had in the UK.

The voucher for Edinburgh to London was for $278.00 that we paid directly to you in the package cost. The actual cost of the rental was 107.34 GBP or 177.81 USD. Therefore, the amount owed to us is $100.19. Also, the fuel charge in the amount of 66.50 GBP was an item that we paid directly to [redacted] at pickup. This was charged to our credit card and is a correct item.

The [redacted] voucher for [redacted] to [redacted] was for $620.00 that we paid directly to you in the package cost. The actual cost of the rental was 184.18 EU or 242.95 USD. Therefore, the amount owed to us from the voucher is 377.05 USD.

The 600.00 EU drop fee also had a value added tax (VAT) attached to it in the amount of 126.27 EU, but 6.27 EU was for the GPS VAT. Therefore, 720.00 EU, which is 949.74 USD is the amount being disputed for the drop fee. Again, we are disputing this fee as it was never mentioned in our conversations with [redacted] and due to the description in the documentation provided to us by [redacted], clearly stating that the fee was included in the rate, we did not question it. Please see below:

DROPOFF FEE: AMOUNT=600.00 EUR GUARANTEEDIND=TRUE-0.00 EUR DESCRIPTION=LOCATION SERVICE CHARGE INCLUDEDINRATE=TRUE

Lastly, The [redacted] tour was 102.32 USD. The tour time was for 2 PM on Thursday, August 14, but we didn't get into [redacted] until 3:30 PM via Eurostar on this day as the train [redacted] booked us on was for a 12:01 PM departure time, putting us in [redacted] one and one half hours past the booked tour start time. Please see the voucher information below:

In all the amount owed to us for the rental car voucher differences, the disputed drop fee and the VAT tax attached to the drop fee, together with the fee for the missed [redacted] tour is $1529.30 USD.

Sincerely,

[redacted]Desired Settlement: Total reimbursement for the amount stated above.
