What company is so terrible that you're boycotting them forever.

0:04.0

Stubb. The way they handled the pandemic with changing their policies and peak pandemic so that people could only recover credit or resell their tickets instead of receiving cash for cancelled events was ridiculous.

0:16.0

I was forced to hold my Coachella ticket for two years, and then they just decided to refund everyone

0:21.2

for this year when they realized that they'd make more money, since the ticket prices will

0:25.0

surge when the event is back in 2023. Screw Stubhub. Oh, Stubbub is so bad. I had the app, so I put

0:32.7

a two-ticket package in my cart, but when I went to checkout, it had changed to one ticket. It was the same price.

0:38.7

So they charged me 80 bucks for one ticket when it was the same price for two tickets.

0:42.9

Why did the number of tickets change once I added them to the cart? Bull crap. So I called and

0:47.4

complained, and of course, there's nothing we can do about it, sir. We can't cancel the transaction.

1:16.5

as long as you want, but I think it actually caps out at three lessons a week, making you stay in the

1:21.0

program for a few months paying monthly. Trying to cancel is a nightmare, sifting through pages

1:26.3

and pages of, are you sure you want to cancel, and here's sifting through pages and pages of,

1:34.0

Are you sure you want to cancel, and here's a 5% discount, or fill this form out, now this one, and now this one.

1:38.2

All to get to a phone number that's only valid to call for a couple of hours a day.

1:41.6

When you finally get to call, it's an automated message.

1:45.6

Ten minutes of a robot telling me it cares about me and it wants me to stay,

1:54.6

only to finally press 2 to cancel my subscription. Frick, Shaw, Academy. Nestle. I may inadvertently grab one of its products, but when I see the name, I always put it back. I keep a list of their brands
