Reviewer Card Makes a Critic Out of all of Us

Casually drop that you're a power Yelper while you dine at a restaurant, and undoubtedly your service will improve. Perhaps an extra cocktail will come your way. And ah, is that a free dessert?

Of course some of us aren't as forward as others. It can be hard saying out loud that you're a force to be reckoned with, that moments after you leave an establishment you intend to dash home and describe in detail every shortcoming of your meal.

Enter the ReviewerCard.

Just flash this handy badge and say no more. Enjoy topnotch service and gratis appetizers, thus assuring your glowing prose on Yelp and your personal blog.

Went thru a 6 month period of them overcharging me,
me calling to complain
them promising to fix the error
them making NEW "mistakes" on the subsequent bills
until
I called, asked for a supervisor, and asked her to speak slowly as I was typing up the encounter to post on an online
community site.
The bills were correct from then on
PLUS
the 2nd month after that call they sent me a credit for over 100.00, making my current bill only 10.00.
Have had a correct bill ever since.
used the "saved" money to buy my star this fall.

Power to the Inter-Tubes!!!
