I cant begin to explain how angry I am. The 2nd film Ive seen since my baby was born in December, and THIS happens...
I went in to buy my ticket (Im an unlimited customer so see as many films as I like for £14.99 a month) and my cineworld member card wouldnt go through. The guy behind the counter says, 'bad card, theres finance issues'. Er, there isnt, Ive paid every month for four years?!
So the manager is called over and says its my responsibilty to call head office as its my problem that the finance is bad. I argue how ridiculous it is that Cineword cant phone Cineworld H/O about a Cineworld card... but I call. The drill is that I then pass the phone to the cinema manager so Head office can talk to her and tell her to put the card though if its ok (I could call my Mum and get her to pretend to be H/O technically, couldnt I!)
The guy on the phone says they cancelled the card, doesnt no why, no reason, the finance is definately not bad, they dont usually do that and he'll phone the cinema and tell them its their error (as I couldnt pass the phone to the manager as she had walked away from me and the cashier was now serving someone else and my phone credit was running out)
After putting the phone down, another manager then comes to see me, and says there is no way that the first phone call took place as I described, and if the card doesnt work its my fault not theirs (by now Cineworld head office have accepted it was their error!!!)
The guy at H/O never called. So I then called them back, making the second manager wait with me while Im on hold for 4 minutes. I then pass the phone to him, and hes told everything Ive said is true, its THEIR fault they cancelled my card without telling me, and that he should issue me a ticket for the film.
This took 20 mins. And you know what, neither manager apologised. They just kept saying its my responsibility. How is it my responsibilty to know they are going to cancel my card for no reason without telling me?
AIBU to write a stinking complaint letter and cancel this damned card?
