I have no idea if these are all genuine but i wouldn’t be surprised!

From Thomas Cook Holidays – listing some of the guests’ complaints during the season.

1. “I think it should be explained in the brochure that the local store does not sell proper biscuits like custard creams or ginger nuts.”

2. “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

3. “On my holiday to Goa in India, I was disgusted to find that almost every restaurant served curry. I don’t like spicy food at all.”

4. “We booked an excursion to a water park but no-one told us we had to bring our swimming costumes and towels.”

5. A tourist at a top African game lodge over looking a water hole, who spotted a visibly aroused elephant, complained that the sight of this rampant beast ruined his honeymoon by making him feel “inadequate”.

6. A woman threatened to call police after claiming that she’d been locked in by staff. When in fact, she had mistaken the “do not disturb” sign on the back of the door as a warning to remain in the room.

7. “The beach was too sandy.”

8. “We found the sand was not like the sand in the brochure. Your brochure shows the sand as yellow but it was white.”

9. A guest at a Novotel in Australia complained his soup was too thick and strong. He was inadvertently slurping the gravy at the time.

10. “Topless sunbathing on the beach should be banned. The holiday was ruined as my husband spent all day looking at other women.”

11. “We bought’ Ray-Ban’ sunglasses for five Euros (£3.50) from a street trader, only to find out they were fake.”

12. “No-one told us there would be fish in the sea. The children were startled.”

13. “There was no egg slicer in the apartment…”

14. “We went on holiday to Spain and had a problem with the taxi drivers as they were all Spanish…”

15. “The roads were uneven..”

16. “It took us nine hours to fly home from Jamaica to England it only took the Americans three hours to get home.”

17. “I compared the size of our one-bedroom apartment to our friends’ three-bedroom apartment and ours was significantly smaller.”

18. “The brochure stated: ‘No hairdressers at the accommodation’. We’re trainee hairdressers – will we be OK staying here?”

19. “There are too many Spanish people.. The receptionist speaks Spanish. The food is Spanish. Too many foreigners..”

20. “We had to queue outside with no air conditioning.”

21.. “It is your duty as a tour operator to advise us of noisy or unruly guests before we travel.”

22. “I was bitten by a mosquito – no-one said they could bite.”

23. “My fiancé and I booked a twin-bedded room but we were placed in a double-bedded room. We now hold you responsible for the fact that I find myself pregnant. This would not have happened if you had put us in the room that we booked.”

they probably are, I had a huge barney with a mate who ran activity weeknds, he said a woman had complained about getting her shoes muddy on a ‘soft’ walking break , I didn’t believe it till I saw the letter ……….

I like No 13 random complainer!

some people are just predisposed to be miserable and complain about everything.

13. “There was no egg slicer in the apartment…”

OMG!! 😯 I’d have just come straight home…..

Fixed.

I hope the complaints are genuine – we need massive idiots like these to entertain the rest of us 😀

13. “There was no egg slicer in the apartment…”
OMG!! I’d have just come straight home…..

But i’m guessing there was a knife!

When my sister came back after a long weekend in Austria she complained that restaurant menus were in German and not English. “How do they expect you to order anything?”

That night I secretly wished one of us was adopted.

EDIT: Just thought that I should add she was a grown woman in her 40’s at the time.

I used to work on the log flume at the local amusement park. Despite the long queue with the big glass barrier to prevent you getting wet, wet peolpe getting of the water ride, the logs being wet etc.. about at least one person everyday complained about being wet and perhaps 1 in 10 would go mental and ask to to see the manger. We even had a sign uo that said
WARNING THIS IS A WATER RIDE YOU WILL GET WET.

Someone once complained that the fully enclosed rollercoaster called the Black Hole was unlit – how was I supposed to know it would be dark?

Never underestimate the ability of paying customers to be stupid.

18. “The brochure stated: ‘No hairdressers at the accommodation’. We’re trainee hairdressers – will we be OK staying here?”

Brilliant! Worthy of Viz Top Tips.

Although I saw a sign last time I was in Spain saying “English Speaking Doctor”. We should try that here.
