Just wanted to write another review and you are not allowed for 3 months. AIBU to think if the first review had no impact, a second one will not either?
I may now need to post photos and add that I have had far too many freebies to conpensate for poor standards.

Can you explain why on Earth you mean?

grenadezombie · 31/01/2019 22:07

*what

legolimb · 31/01/2019 22:09

Explain please

MuddyMoose · 31/01/2019 22:10

I've read this a couple of times now & still have no idea what you mean. Please explain?

BooksAreMyOnlyFriends · 31/01/2019 22:11

Totally confused.

Nojobistoobig · 31/01/2019 22:11

So you wrote a poor review and you want to write another one because the compensation hasn’t made up for the poor service? Three months between reviews doesn’t feel that long.

?

OhDearHowSadNeverMind · 31/01/2019 22:13

Nope - lost with this one I'm afraid Confused. You've had freebies because of a bad review and now you want to do another one? Good or bad?

wombatron · 31/01/2019 22:14

Was one of the freebies booze?

badlydrawnperson · 31/01/2019 22:14

? TA Lets me post more than 1 review every 3 months - what gives?

Daisydoesnt · 31/01/2019 22:17

I think the OP means she can’t review the same place again (within 3 months)

SynchroSwimmer · 31/01/2019 22:18

Tripadvisor won’t allow a second review to be submitted of the same hotel/destination within 3 months

SneakyGremlins · 31/01/2019 22:19

I'm sure I've done it before though Confused

MuddyMoose · 31/01/2019 22:21

I understand that the OP means she can't post more than once within 3 months - it's the rest of the post that's baffling. Freebies? May need to post pictures? Having no impact?

Bigonesmallone3 · 31/01/2019 22:21

Have u been back for another visit to this place you have reviewed poorly?
I'm guessing not, it is unfair to review multiple times for one bad experience because your review didn't have the impact you had hoped..

Or have I got something confused?

todayiwin · 31/01/2019 22:24

Fucking hell, what with this and the "a little experiment" post I'm off to bed

CloserIAm2Fine · 31/01/2019 22:26

I’m guessing you gave a poor review and despite compensation you want to give the same business another poor review? Grabby much?! Let it go

Surfingtheweb · 31/01/2019 22:34

If the place does not meet your standards then stop going back.

Starlight456 · 31/01/2019 22:41

Well if you think a place is poor , why are you going back ?

It sounds like the 3 month rule is a good one is you want to repeatedly slate a business. You have given your opinion now move on

SneakyGremlins · 31/01/2019 22:42

I mean if I have a bad experience I'll go back one more time in case it's a one off. But if it's still shit I move on, don't need to repeatedly froth about it...

Fiddie · 31/01/2019 22:47

What you talking about?

underneaththeash · 31/01/2019 22:48

yes, you can't do 2 in a 3 month period. It prevents people bumping up their ratings or fraudiently posting bad reviews by posting multiple times.
