[TowerTalk] BANISHMENT FROM TOWER TALK

[BobK8IA at aol.com]

I suspect there is more to this story. I, for one, have purchased a  tower, 
tower services and climbing equipment from Steve (Champion Radio) over  the 
past 2 yrs and find him to be very reliable and a man of his word. Every  item I 
ordered arrived here quickly. One item needed return and he took care of  that 
very quickly as well. (a belt sizing problem that was actually MY problem).  
The tower service he did for me was done on time and actually lower cost than  
originally quoted. He was courteous, professional and even suggested cost  
cutting measures that helped me save a few bucks.
 
"Poor business practices"? Not from my dealings! No way. 
 
Kudos to Steve Morris!!!

Fellow  Tower Talk Members,
The poor business practices of Steve Morris from  Champion Radio Products has
been extended to the poorer management  practices of Tower Talk. I am
wondering if I am the only person who has  experienced this treatment? I have
been banished by Steve K7LXC from Tower  Talk.

Since Steve K7LXC has decided to use this reflector as part of  his Champion
Radio business I feel free to release the information on my  dealings with
Champion Radio to this reflector.

After leaving many  messages on the Champion Radio telephone answering
machine about receiving  and incomplete climbing belt and the incorrect
billing for the items and  after not getting any
reply to these many phone calls I sent the belt and  other items back via
UPS. The package was returned to me marked  delivery
refused. I contacted my credit card company and supplied them with  all the
information about this transaction. The credit card company issued  a stop on
the charge and a credit to my account. This event took place in  July 2004.
Rather then contacting me during the past six months to resolve  this
situation Steve K7LXC from Champion Radio decided to banish me from  Tower
Talk sending me the message included below.

Thanks  again,
Rich...
