"BEWARE OPT-OUT"

by canonF1vet on June 29, 2008

Pros: There are none.

Cons: Opt-out plans with complex burdens on user to opt out.
Summary: Read the other users' reviews... they touch on what I'm seeing in the contract. I did NOT sign on. I've been stuck several times with only this option, and whereas I could have benefited from having access, I was not about to spend the next few months of my life trying to opt out (IN WRITING) of the programs (INCLUDING the short-term special). READ THE TERMS & CONDITIONS! (The editors here apparently never did.) I'd like to report them to the attorney general in every state they're scamming in. (Plus Delaware and LA, their states of incorporation and listed address... surprised California hasn't done something about them, at least.) When I read the postings of others here, about all the additional charges (and when I consider what any of our time is worth, to try to deal with opting out when you want to... which you surely will!)... I think it'd be a better investment to just sign up with an airline's president's club or whatever, even four a couple of hundred bucks, if they have wi-fi... than to get in bed with these slimeballs. I'd also like to find the time to contact the various airport administrators and let them know what a slippery outfit they've been suckered into partnering with.
