Terrible condition lodge, promised refund NOT paid
Terrible condition lodge, refund promised but never paid.
The lodge at St Minver was very old, tired and shabby.
There issues were:
- we were given the key to the wrong lodge so we nearly invaded other people's privacy
- cobwebs everywhere
- ant infestation
- silverfish infestation
- dishwaser didn't work
- shower kept going stone cold
- broken bed
- broken chairs, so wobbly they were dangerous
- curtain pole hanging off the wall
- inventory was short of glasses (4 in a lodge for 6!)
We politely brought all these problems to the reception attention and some of the items were fixed: the chairs, the ant infestation, the curtain pole, the showers, the missing glasses.
But the dishwasher was NEVER fixed, so we had to wash up after evey meal foer the whole week - not what we piad for in the "de-luxe" (ha ha HA!) lodge which we paid plenty extra for.
On the last day, the site manager, Keith, came to inspect the problems and he agreed it was not at all good. He offered a £500 refund - to be paid "within 5 days" - and I agreed not to review Parkdean until we'd received the partial refund.
10 days later and just like others have reported, there is NO REFUND. I've written to them, including to the CEO, Steve Richards, saying we want the promised refund and we WILL review Parkdean Resorts, but they are collectively so stupid that they have failed to give the refund and have not responded to my further written complaint.
VERY stupid indeed, when coming good on the refund promise would have earned them a 3* review for at least doing their best to rectify the problems.
But as they've played hard-ball and refused to give the promised refund, this HONEST 1* review is the TRUTH about how shabby their lodges, equipment and empty promises are. It seems they actually WANT 1* reviews. Just how stupid can some company CEOs and their Managers be?
So we'll pursue the refund they promised to us through a Section 75 Credit Card claim and if necessary through the Courts, with costs, which will cost this idiotic company a whole lot more.
You've been warned!!! If you want a good holiday, avoid Parkdean Resorts. If you ignore this advice, then make sure you pay at least £100 of it by credit card to be eligible for a Section 75 claim when it goes wrong.
And if they offer you a partial refund - laugh at them,,,, because there is plenty of evidence on Trustpilot that they LIE and don't honour their promises.
Seriously - AVOID this terrible company! Save your money and go elsewhere! Just look at their DIABOLICAL reviews an Trustpilot!
