Review: I purchased an Alco-Buddy on 2/*/11 for the purpose of making money and helping patrons who are unaware of their blood alcohol level. At the time of my purchase I paid $1899 + $50 for shipping and handling. A man by the name of [redacted] told me that I should purchase the item on that day because it was a special, and the next day it was going to be higher. Very soon after, they started selling the Alco-buddy machines for far less than what I paid for. I was told that it was very easy too place these machines, but it was not. I paid two locator services to help me place them because all of my attempts where unsuccessful. The professional locator service found me a location only to have it removed two weeks later, because the bar owner was not happy with it, there was no money in the machine at the time I picked it up. The professional locator service gave up because they could not place the machines at a location that wanted this machine in their business. Alco-buddy not only over charged me for a product that they sale on [redacted] for $600, but the sensors do not work because they give inaccurate readings of a patrons BAC level, which can cause them to believe that they are under the the BAC level resulting in more drinking. The whole purpose of this machine is to prevent accidents. I have tried very hard to get rid of this machine by selling it on sites such as [redacted], [redacted], [redacted], and swip swop on [redacted]. I feel that was a lot of money to just throw away and I feel like I was burned. I have contacted them about this matter plenty of times, but they where rude and uncaring. I am now in the process of starting a class action lawsuit, because I have not made my money back, and can't pay to give this machine away.Desired Settlement: I want a full refund and to return the machine back to the company

Response:

At this time, I have not been contacted by Unique Vending Enterprises /Alco-Buddy regarding complaint ID [redacted].

I have been in contact with others about a class action lawsuit. This company will never respond because the owner knows full well that a lot of people are after them for a refund, they are thieves, liars, and must be brought in for justice, because of his lies and deceit many have lossed their hard earned money, with no chance of making it back off the machines that he guarantees is better than other companies, and installing cheap bad sensors that don't function well, or gives out accurate readings.

Sincerely,

Review: My wife and I contacted [redacted] of alcobuddy about using his product to launch our own business. After speaking with him we agreed to pay $13,930 for 20 completed machines. He was paid via bank wire transfer on June **, 2013. We did not recieve any machines until appoximately the second week of July. We only recieved 2 machines. Currently, as of July **, 2013 [redacted] has refused to send us the remaining completed 18 machines per our original agreement. He claims to have had an increase in cost since June that has forced him to request an additional $1600 of us or he has offered to ship us incomplete machines. This is not satisfactory as we have already suffered several delays and loss of revenue because of his shipping and production delays. Furthermore, when we asked to be refunded the remaining $12,537 he refused and said our only options were to pay his new fee or recieve useless incomplete machines.Desired Settlement: Our only desired outcome at this point is either a refund for the remaining 18 incomplete machines ($12,537) or a complete refund of $13,930 at which we will return the two machines currently in our possession.

Response:

At this time, I have been contacted directly by Unique Vending Enterprises /Alco-Buddy regarding complaint ID [redacted], however my complaint has NOT been resolved because:

I have only recieved the same answer as before, "send more money or receive incomplete products." Furthermore, my emails are now being ignored and it appears the company's position has not changed and they are refusing to cancel my order and return my funds.

In order for the Revdex.com to appropriately process your response, you MUST answer the question above.

Sincerely,
