I booked my event with Elite Casino Events in June, for a party in December. The week before my event I received an email stating that the tables would be delivered at 5pm and the dealers would arrive at 5:30. My party started at 6. At 5:30 the first dealer arrived, no tables thought. At 5:40, the second dealer showed up, still no tables. I called the #800 and spoke with Jolie/Jolene, she said she would look into it and call me back. I never heard from her again. At 6:32 I received a call from Elite stating that had a missed call from me. That persons name was Sherry. I explained my issue, she said she would look into it and get back with me. At 7:25 Sherry called me back and said the delivery truck was at my location but was having trouble locating me. She asked if she could give the driver my phone number so he could call me directly. I said sure, I never got a call from the driver. At about 7:30 men began bringing in the THREE tables I ordered, but there were only TWO dealers. Tables were ready for play at 8pm. My party was to be from 6 to 9pm.
My party was on a Saturday evening. The driver said he couldn't come back to get the tables before midnight. I couldn't stay that late, so we made an agreement that they could be picked up Monday morning. Monday came, no call, no show. Tuesday, they showed up unannounced to pick up the tables. When I told them they would need to schedule an appointment, I was told I could be charged another full day for "holding" their equipment. I reminded them that their appointment was Monday and nobody showed up. An hour later I received a call from Allie, claiming to be part of the management team. I asked her how she was going to rectify the issues from Saturday night. She said she couldn't do anything about that but I didn't release their equipment, she would call the police on me. I told her, like I told the driver, you have to make an appointment. My office building doesn't allow furniture movement during business hours. She said "I'm making the appointment now! It's in 30 minutes". She kept yelling and eventually hung up on me. About half an hour later I received an invoice stating that I owed them $55 for the mileage they drove to pick the tables up. Later on the day (Tuesday, December 6th) I received an email from someone asking me to "release" their tables, and saying that I can't hold the property "hostage". I reminded them that the driver didn't show up Saturday night or Monday morning, I did them a favor by not putting the tables outside. I told her to make an appointment for pick up. She made an appointment that worked within our office buildings guidelines. The equipment was picked up on Wednesday, December 7th.
Today, I am 16 days past my party. I have left several messages for Elaine (owner), and I have spoken with Amanda (Customer Service lead). When I last spoke with Amanda on 12/12/22 she assured me that she was working on a quick resolution and she didn't want me to have to wait 24-48 hours for a response (something another associate told me the week prior). This morning when I called Amanda, she picked up her phone and started talking about a mountain retreat (she thought I was someone else) when I told her you may have picked up a different line, this is Roshanda. She hung up. When I called back, I went straight to voicemail.
This is by far the MOST unprofessional company I have EVER dealt with. read more
