Beware of Prestige Laundry - Mansoura Area

Guys, please beware of this Prestige laundry shop located at Mansoura Area near Royal restaurant. I went there to have my (2 pcs)comforters dry cleaned about 1 month ago. Last night i found out (when we are about to sleep and use it the first time since it was taken there) that the blanket is half the original size. I was pretty upset and surprise at the same time. We checked the seams at the side and it was different from the other 3 which are machine sewed from the inside. The altered side has sloppy running stitch and was very obvious as the thread color is different. We immediately checked the other one and we found out the same. The previous queen size comforter was reduced to single. It was the first time that I go there for my laundry as our "trustee" laundry shop was full at that time so we have no choice but to find another shop. I didn't suspect for a bit that there are people here capable of doing such horrible things and rip off others in such a stupid way. If you're a victim of the same, please let me know so I can support my claim and help me file complaint against these idiots. (They might be thinking that nobody will notice). Holler! More power!

or maybe you forgot that you only have single comforters?

the problem is both comforters (i have 2 comforters sent to them) were both reduced to half (and I'm not exaggerating here, they were really half the original)...maybe they accidentally burned both? maybe if the other one was not altered..then maybe i will consider it...It's like being hit by lightning twice in one day..how lucky i am

and also, when i passed by the street where it is located this morning, the name was no longer Prestige...it is now "Express" Laundry...I wonder if it is still the same shop and they just changed the name...I don't want to know..

Strange! Maybe they damaged it and cut off the damaged piece?

Anyhow, very odd!

What comes around, goes around....
