According to Thomas Cook in the UK, some holiday makers are just never
satisfied.
Here are the top ten most bizarre and genuine customer complaints received by
the firm in recent years:
1 On my holiday to Goain India, I was disgusted to find that almost every
restaurant served curry. I don't like spicy food at all.
2 The beach was too sandy.
3 I bought a snorkel and swimming mask for my six-year-old son, but he was too
upset to use them as the fish frightened him.
4 It rained on my birthday.
5 Topless sunbathing on the beach should be banned. The holiday was ruined as
my husband spent all day looking at other women.
6 I think it should be explained in the brochure that the local store does not
sell proper biscuits like custard creams or ginger nuts.
7 It's lazy of the local shopkeepers to close in the afternoons. I often needed
to buy things during 'siesta' time - this should be
banned.
8 We bought 'Ray-Ban' sunglasses for five euros (=A33.50) from a street trader,
only to find out they were fake.
9 None of the hotel staff was English, and the tea didn't taste the same as at
home.
10 I would like to complain about the price of alcohol in the resort. It was
too cheap and I woke with a hangover every day.
