How much do you think you’ve got to pay for two tooth glasses?
My girlfriend and I rented a three room apartment for about a year. Well, during this time we had a few problems housekeeper administration, it’s a company called “Decimo”.
They told a friendly about 65 year old woman who lived in the same house that she has to write a letter of complaint that they not accepting calls. She’s in the same flat for about 30 years and I’m sure she pays the rent always on time.That was one of the reason why we did not like to look forward to the appointment we had with this company to return the flat. To avoid problems I tought I will go and buy these glasses in advance.
During the cleaning preparations, about two weeks before we finally went in our new flat, I went to a market and bought two glasses in the size I thought would fit. They cost each about 3 Euro’s and 50 Cents. I thought for this price I give a shot.
Well, they almost did fit into the cradle.
The second time, a bit better prepared. I went to a different store with a draft of the size of the glass in my pocket. This time the ones I saw you could buy for about 4 Euro 50 and it was quite hard to guess but with my messurements it should work -> Second time wrong :( shit happens.
I went to a few other stores but after a while I was annoyed. I even found out the brand in the internet but I thought I wouldn’t risk to order them ’cause it was a strange page and not really trustworthy. After that I gave in, I thought that they should just charge us those glasses, they can’t be that expensive, and go the hell.
Well the first thing they did. They ordered a plumber, this guy drove with his service car to our apartment, checked which kind of glasses we need, went back home, ordered these glasses and brought them again.
He charged us about 54 Euro for that. Summa summarum (nice pseudo intelligent word, isn’t it?) I paid about 70 Euro for everything…


Not to forget, that the plumber already knew before which glasses he would need…. He was just told by decimo to double check… Guys, you should stop your business!!!
