Terrible response from management when there was fraud on my credit card. They were ignoring me and telling me essentially not to worry about it as if they were speaking to someone stupid would say "Oh, OK. I won't worry about it". Being patronizing and not showing me respect. Trying to get me to just let it blow over. That is so unprofessional.
