So glad I waited to purchase anything from these cons who advertise on crooked Google's crooked YouTube. Anyone who sends out as many emails like AARP sends out mailers has got to have problems keeping customers/repeat business. After 20+ email in less than a week I came here (can't trust Google or their reviews) to read the peoples truth about this company and their products and WOW, their emails said exactly what 99% of y'all here said ....RUN!
Illinois Lottery, where nobody cares and Generic careless replies were born!
Twice in a row now I've deposited $10 into my Illinois lottery account through your App, as my bank records will reflect. Though your end shows no deposit has been made.
The last time I went through this, all I was able to seemingly accomplish was attempted communications with complete incompetence and full tilt contemptuous carelessness.
So, Now I've come to learn something very valuable here. NEVER EVER trust or give one thin Dime to this constant soulless loser entity.
Moving forward, I'll be the loudest voice of Antitrust and Anti-Gambling concerning the Illinois Lottery, it's broken Systems and sad Office.
Illinois Tobacco Quitline, These caring people are truly the best while saving lives with all their care and help. I couldn't have ever quite these nasty cigarettes with out them. I owe these kindest of the kind my life. Breathing better than I have for decades. Saving money and life just smells better than ever before. If you're thinking about quitting, this is your ticket to that freedom.
If anything can go wrong it will with this haph-hazardous careless clueless Company/Credit Card. I can't wait for the day we see these scandalous crooks get what they're screaming for! If anything works properly with this Company, I guarantee you that is a mistake.
Years ago my Son started his Heat & Air Courses at Lake County College. For weeks he walked miles in below zero weather to catch a Public Transportation bus to get to the College. He'd leave the house 5am to get to his 8am class ...FOR WEEKS AND WEEKS!! For many weeks the Guidance Office and the Financial Dept could not explain why the money hadn't gone through leaving him without his Books for the Courses while he still did his best to stay on page with the rest of the class. He had forged a fantastic relationship with his Instructor. He'd come home so happy and proud of his accomplishments, what he's learned that day. Showing me things that made us both so incredibly happy. I hadn't seen my Son this excited to learn since Kindergarten. The 'lady' at the desk in the Guidance Office would give black people all the time, attention and energy and then some while smiling bright and batting her eyes. If you are white it was almost cold the way she treated and barely responded to you doing as little as she could. Finally we found out there was a mistake with my Son spelling of his name causing an issue with the finances. They said he'd have to start over next Semester. After an incredibly hard life this was my Son's last straw. I had never seen my Son work so hard, so diligent at something after struggling so hard through high school. This was going to be his fresh start. And he was robbed of it by racist. This small mistake made a life changing whirlwind of negative outcomes. When I called this 'ladys' boss I was given an apology with excuses and zero resolvement. In all my life this is one of the most top disgusting things I've ever personally witnessed and experienced.
Date of Experience was approx 2014-15 ..the ever lasting pains of this life changing experience still goes on to this present day.
How this company manages to exist screams to the heavens of how crooked it is! Because no company that completely fails like this one does would otherwise exist. Moved into my Apartment a 11 months ago. The poor lady here before me keeps getting her personal health/insurance info sent here to me more than monthly (I have the proof). I've called Aetna, I send all her mail back to them with a written note, "Return to sender, this person no longer lives here, and do these baffling buffoon idiots care, CAN THEY EVEN READ?!? PSYCHOPATHS WITH ZERO EMPATHY!! If I wasn't a faithful person, I'd visit their heartless brainless CEO myself!! It's because of people like this we have Luigi's in the World!! I had my own personal nightmare with this clueless careless idiotic heartless brainless company. Was left in excruciating pain for weeks because someone in a dark little windowless office somewhere in a cold dark basement thinks they know more than an ER Doctor! After a bad fall leaving two Labral tears in each of my Shoulders they felt I didn't need the Lidocaine patches even though I've been with them for 2 years and never fill a prescription, not once. I wish this company all the pain United Healthcare has dealt with and MORE!! I WISH THEM ALL THE PAIN THEY PURPOSELY CAUSE. THEY ASK FOR IT. THEY 100% DESERVE IT!!
Publicizing disinformation, these are the kinds of Companies that make life Hell! Telling the World my Son lived with my Father who died long before my Son was born. Say's my Father is still alive at 97 when he died in his 60's. This isn't useful information, this is a disservice of epic proportion. The kind that should shut there door's forever!! Reading the reviews here about them tells me they are at least a CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT IN THE MAKINGS! Reckless beyond regards. This should be considered criminal if it isn't already.

I've reached out to the people at the Woodstock Independent in infamous 'Groundhog Day' Woodstock, Illinois a few times regarding corruption within the Woodstock Village and have never received a reply. I have proof of some pretty sick happenings within Woodstock Illinois and seemingly their News Paper wants nothing to do with it. Are they as corrupt as the corruption I'm trying to get them to view, question and talk about? Why won't they communicate/reply? I've had to deal with a twice Congressional Nominee retired CNN Reporter Landlord (who was kicked out of a Woodstock County Courthouse because of her deplorable 'my poop doesn't stink' kind of behavior) with her 911 retired dispatch Officer Husband who feels and acts like they're above the Law. A corrupt Woodstock Police Officer I have on video saying he didn't care about the safety of Woodstock children and also on film laughing it up with the passenger of the lady who hit me with her vehicle. Officer didn't do anything as he says (I have this on film too) "because they already left the scene". I'm pretty sure that's called A Hit And Run Officer. I bet a Report wasn't even filed though I hope I'm wrong here and if not, that's proof enough in itself! Not to mention a corrupt Housing Authority and Building & Zoning Office. And not to mention my Son who suffers from Schizophrenia with more than 70 Court Dates in under two years not including all the other countless responsibilities they threw on him. The Township said they'd do an investigation and get back to me (I have in an email). I never received anything from an Investigation from the Township. So much information, pictures, video and emails of the ugly truths within Woodstock and they seemingly don't care. IF I HAD A MILLION DOLLAR LAWYER, I'D OUTRIGHT OWN WOODSTOCK !!
Watching Katie Couric from ABC News interview Kid Rock (something I'm sure they'd like to forget too) made me sick to my stomach while she seemingly was eating up his 'charm' and devouring every bit of his presence. And was my last straw with ABC and it's Disney Company. I don't know if it was aired during or shortly after the 2024 inauguration of our Felon rapist "grab them by the puss" president but it was the absolute last cringy thing I could stomach from another placating 'news agency' coddling up to the depravity of what is killing not just our nation but the world in its entirety. If you can't ask the hard questions, you DON'T BELONG IN THE BUSINESS! *Date of experience is an approximation.
How many flipping Ad's can someone put in a News Feed? Bet Google has the World's record for interference, headaches and trauma caused by a News Feed! Caused by an unquenchable thirst for more more more!! Caused by company that can never get enough of what you have and wants it all, ABSOLUTELY EVERYTHING! The fleecing of America, The fleecing of a nation, a life changing world ending power dominating corruption bigger than us all Mastermind by pure EVIL. A CEO that gave a million dollars to a zero IQ date your daughter pedophile convicted rapist Epstein friend/cohort corrupt president for it's inauguration. Not one distortion or lie in my words. All true, all can be proven. These aren't just opinions these are facts. And America, YOU ASKED FOR IT AND YOU DESERVE EVERYTHING YOU HAVE COMING!

WHATS WITH SALE/COUPONS EXPIRING/ENDING THE DAY BEFORE THE 1ST OF THE MONTH ....when most lower income people reliant on food stamps get their food stamps. I've stopped shopping at Walmart years ago because of scrupulous practices like these. Is JEWEL OSCO next on the Chopping Block❔❕
Jewel CEO, The people of America are waking up to the smell of the garbage their being fed.
The real deal Smile-Makers! And I just love everyone I've come across here (bet you won't even find a sour grape in the fridge). You'll be hard pressed to find and meet a friendlier kinder caring group of absolute professionals anywhere. They truly take the time to understand your concerns and hopes while forging a path forward to better and brighter smiles. The Office is very well run and organized. You can see the always present and evolving incredible teamwork of the staff, like a well oiled machine. The Dental Room's are always spotless clean while comfortable and aesthetically relaxing/pleasing. Hardly a wait in the living room, I mean waiting room. Though it is seriously as comfortable as a well designed living room. On my second visit, I was offered free lunch from the grill, cooked by the ultra kind staff enjoying the beautiful sunshiny day outside. And I also got a free new toothbrush and toothpaste. All the kind of surprises you want, none of the ones ya don't! Now that's a win win. 😁
Any Company that uses the interference of Zendesk instead of dealing with their customers directly are the epitome of much that's going wrong with this countrys digressively falling backwards.
This is the very epic description of "I don't care enough of or about my customers, let someone else deal with those headaches and I'll just pay them".
They're company name Zendesk, It is the Trumpspurian art of the spin on truth. NOTHING CLOSE TO ZEN HERE. 🎯
The only Reviews Platform I trust. Were you can respectably speak your mind and experience without manipulation of the likes of Google and such. Bless & thank you Trustpilot people. 🤗
The saddest and most frustrating of experiences, when told from the Doctor's Office, "we're doing our best" while seeing/experiencing only the WORST. While seeing your Son constantly circle certain death.
My Sons been diagnosed with Schizophrenia, with zero Medical Testing from my knowledge other than Blood Draws and Physical Observation/Communication.
I've read the DSM-IV-TR (The Diagnostic & Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders) and Aunt Martha's Woodstock Community Health Center has done nothing but the bare minimum if that and some flipping pills.
For years I've been trying to communicate with my adult Son's Healthcare 'Team' and Dr. Pocholo Florentino at Aunt Martha's Woodstock Community Health Center in hopes to get some kind of clearer understanding of what Brain Damage is causing his Mental Health issues to no avail w/out care while my Son bounces in and out of jails and hospitals, life risking damn incident after life risking damn incident. Every flipping person that knows my Son well and are familiar with his journey are surprised he's still alive!
Where do the excuses end and the care begin. I'm watching my Son slowly disintegrate. This is Cancer on Steroids!
This sad state of affairs of a Company that is doing everything it can to destroy its past great reputation as a 'customer caring company' to a 'screw the customer', let's get every dollar we can no matter what company!!
When you manipulate your TRANSACTION IDs into your Paper Work as actual MONEY BEEN TRANSFERRED/SENT when it has not is crooked to the Core. Many of you might not understand what I'm saying here, but when you do figure it out you'll completely understand how this company has found a way to rip off anyone's who's PayPal Account/Account Email has been hacked and have its cake and eat it too/not send a dime (only a transactional ID) and still take your money out of your account! PayPal, you're going to get your hands slammed in that cookie jar that's NOT YOURS very very hard!!
My poor Son, if he's expected to get help from the likes of the combative aggressively rude controll freak "Counselor" who I spoke with on the phone he's in much more trouble than when he entered this place with. It scares me to the core that someone like this could be left to possibly have any kind of outcome in anyone's future.
Reading all the Google reviews I wish to God that I had read them first and listened to all the other's who have strongly suggest Rosencrantz much more over Gateway. There are some very very serious issues aligning up here.
The in-house communications issues alone within this "organization" gave me cause for pause. Now after speaking with (getting yelled at, inappropriately scolded by, belittled and wrongly accused by) his Counselor Kelly I was left trembling with fear. Someone needs to school her about "talking out the side of her neck". No one should be talked to like she talked to me. No one should be treated with such disrespect!! No one like this should be left in charge of anyone's CARE ...EVER!! Getting accused of hiding information from her that I'd already given to her 'higher ups', What a broken damaged empty vessel this crooked counselor is!!
When speaking with Kelly's boss Jack, trying to explain my nightmare of a conversation/experience with Kelly he told me, "I'm not going to listen to you badmouth my employee". I wasn't trying to "badmouth" anyone. I was sharing my truthful experience ..LISTEN TO THE CALL IF YOU CAN!! Jack, if that was your kid in there and you where me, would you want to be stifled while I RAN the conversation or would you want me to listen to you and your experience? You guys are Ego Tripping hard!! You need to be professionals, AT ALL TIMES, ITS WHAT YOU ARE PAID FOR!!
I pray I won't have to go the rout of the Freedom Of Information Act, Gather all the names and complaints here and/or the plethora of other tools at my disposal in getting contact information of Kelly's past Clientele and bring to her the attention she's so desperately crying for and return the unnecessary crap that was thrown at me today as well my Son till he was pushed to far.
Gateway, you don't hold all the cards. Be careful with that power you wield, it'll come back to bite you as it most certainly always does. Numbers don't lie! Illinois Human Services desperately needs to place several investigators in there as a client (God's purpose from my experience).
*PLEASE READ ALL THE REVIEWS ON GOOGLE BEFORE COMMITTING TO THIS PLACE FOR HELP.
**I wasn't expecting sugar, but I sure as hell didn't need all the unnecessary salt. If Kelly doesn't personally like you, be prepared for one hellacious ride. She'll find a way to drive you out.
Home of the Sparrow, You will never find a group of more caring people than these fine folks. Their store is an amazing experience beyond belief with anything and everything you are looking for. The money they make goes right back to the community. These are the kinds of businesses that truly give back. These are the kind of people that truly support their communities and more. This is where you want your money to go! This where true Heart's shop.
CROOKS! NOTHING BUT CORPORATE LEVEL CONS AND CROOKS! In a perfect world, Globe Life & Accident Insurance Company would not exist because in a perfect World Con Artist's and Crook's don't exist.
