Katy "Smash" or "Trash"...

 

 

 

Legend:

We recommend this business

We were not impressed


Internet Service

Consolidated Communications
Katy (Formerly FBCC and TXU)

DSL Service

1) Prices are high and service is low. If you need to rely upon high speed Internet, don't choose Consolicated Communications. One would think that their high prices would result in better service, but it does not. Even having a dedicated IP (business line) results in frequent unscheduled outages. Of course their solution is to have you reset your equipment. How frustrating and undependable!

2) Technical Support for DSL is horrible. When calling for support they will transfer you to various offices. The Level I support people try, but they need help from other people who may have the knowledge to repair problems, but they can't get responses from them either. One problem took approximately 5 hours although it should have taken less than 10 minutes.

   

Restaurants

China Inn Cafe
22147 Katy Freeway

Good food, good service.
Chick-Fil-A
Mason Road

This establishment has to rate amongst the friendliest and best service in the area.

 

Salt Grass Steakhouse
Katy Freeway

Issues with employees changing credit card charge slips and management not monitoring. The change was made after the customer signed the charge slip and left. It would not have been caught of the customer did not check receipts when the monthly credit card bill arrived.

Merchandise/Department Stores
GUESS
Katy Mills Mall
Their Return policy is poor. They will only give a store credit, even if you have the receipt and your purchase still has the original tags, labels, and has not been worn.
Wal-Mart Paint Department
Two locations in Katy
Don't expect to find the paint or related painting supplies at the Wal-Mart. It is hard enough to find someone who works in that department. Save yourself time and headaches by going to Home Depot or another nearby store where you can find a better quality paint, knowledgeable people, and it will probably be in stock.

Automotive
Momentum BMW Katy
I-10 Katy
I've noticed that their parking lot seems to be fairly empty whenever I drive by, and now I understand why. Their Service Department is in need of an overhaul. I took my car their to have the air conditioner checked (fan blows, compressor engages, etc, but the air was not cold). Friday morning they told me they would call with the diagnosis later that day. Late Friday I got a call telling me they would call me late Monday with the diagnosis. Saturday I decided to go get the car since they obviously had not even looked at it. I called, got voice mail. Called 5-6 more times, got voicemail. Spoke to the Receptionist, told that only one person was working in Service. Asked her if she could tell some to have my car ready for pick-up - no, but she could transfer me to the voice mailbox of someone who could. Called back, asked for a manager...got voicemail. Finally when there to pickup my car. They had not looked at it as suspected, but somehow they managed to put a large scratch in the driver's door. I think the I will continue to go BMW North Houston. It is a long drive, but at least I can get service there!
 
Banks/Credit Unions
Members Choice Credit Union
Fry Road
"Customer service is very poor,
answers don't come easily, tellers are rude and we've had major problems
trying to open up other accounts...and [they're] not knowledgeable in banking rules (they tried to put a hold on a cashier's check and didn't want to credit back fees charged...for their error) and seem to have a problem with the basics of just counting money correctly."
Members Choice Credit Union
Grand Parkway
"Lousy customer service and overall bad attitudes. They don't give you their disclosures (more than one person on this).They don't inform you they are recording your conversations-they don't hold items for clearing when requested. Overall bad customer service."
 
 
Other
Mud 81
Mud district
Deceptive billing practices. They include options within their total as if you owe it as part of your bill. Good luck trying to get a refund...
Callen Roofing
Katy
"They return calls, keep their appointments, and do a great job."
