Upset over the incomplete service, she complained to a staff member that she should have been informed of the faulty vacuum cleaner before she agreed to the service.

If you're not happy, get your car washed in Singapore instead.» The manager reportedly took things one step further and audibly told his staff to «remember (Jenny's) face and car».
