I WAS DENIED ENTRANCE TO THE US TODAY!!! THANKS OSAMA!!!
Holly shit! No joke guys!
I was planning on taking a mini-vacation this week down to florida and spend some time with my dad. I was also doing my pop a favor and was going to drive his Denali (which is just coming off lease) back from his house and drop it off at the Dealership in Toronto (where I live). So anyways I book a one way flight to Orlando and throw all my bags in the car and off to the airport I go. I arrive with plenty of time at Pearson Airport in Toronto and pick up my ticket from the ticket desk. I go to customs and after about 20 minutes in line get to the customs desk. He asks me a few questions like where I am going, how long, yada yada! Then says we will need to speak to you in this office. I go into the office and wait for another 25 minutes for a customs inspector to come talk to me. I finally go in and talk to some fat ass customs inspector and he asks me about 10,000 questions. Where does my dad live? How old is he? Is he a US citizen or on visa? Where are the papers to my dad's truck which I am driving back? Am I employed? Am I carrying any money on me? Fuck this guy went on forever and went through my bags with a fine tooth comb! He finally comes back and says we will need the following: - bills to prove "I" am a Canadian citizen (even though I had a valid ontario's drivers license, birth certificate and 10 other pieces of ID infront of him) - papers for my dad's truck (lease agreement, ownership) - exact address of where I am staying at that night and every night I am in the US - all my dad's info and confirmation FROM HIM that I am staying with him THIS IS ABSOLUTE BULLSHIT!!! I have travelled to florida about 6 times in the last 10 years and have flown to about 25 different countries all across the globe and have never had anything more demanded out of me than "are you declaring anything?" I do not have a criminal record, i do not have any incidents whatsoever with customs in any of my travels and am otherwise a pretty model citizen. The asshole said we are refusing your entry in the US for these reasons and until you can come back with these documents we cannot allow you to enter the US. I packed up and went back to the ticket gate and guess what? My ticket is non-refundable!!! The ticket lady said this happens all the time now and is all thanks to the attacks on sept 11. She said any young guys who travel alone, are going one way and book very close to departure always get a hassle with customs now and a lot do not get on the plane! OK I understand that the US customs agents are taking extra precautions but JESUS! Needless to say I am calling to complain to customs and hopefully negotiate my money back on my ticket from the airlines. Sorry to rant for so long but I have never seen so much bullshit in my entire life! Thanks again Mr. Bin Laden, I have now been laid off and had my vacation cancelled because of you! FUCKER!!!

That sucks!
|
Why did you get laid off from being stopped at the airport?
|
Nah man I am of Irish decent (totally caucasian). I was not dressed to the nines or anything (jeans and t-shirt) because I wanted to be comfortable on the flight.
I would kind of understand if I was of middle east decent getting that kind of grilling but me? Bunch a bullshit I tell ya! ------------------ Hey Grab a Beer And Come Slap Your Monkey At My Site! DrinkingHard.com |

Nice to see Canada Uping their security
|
Hey, keep us updated if you get a refund
|
That would be US customs, not Canadian. He would have had to deal with Canadian Customs when he got back from the USA.

I think everyone is freaked out by this anthrax stuff. Two more postal workers died yesterday from the inhaled anthrax and they were not even mail sorters http://bbs.gofuckyourself.net/board/frown.gif You are lucky anyway...you couldn't pay me to go near Florida right now. That is where this all started so actually they did you a favor. ------------------ Tracy ;) Fantasy Content http://www.fantasycontent.com |

Canadian security not US Customs. If he had gotten on the plane and flown to the US and then been denied entry, that would be US Customs.

For once Kimmy, you might be wrong :-)
US immigration are the last line you go through in Toronto before getting on the plane. I hassled them about what they were doing in Canada, and the guy complained that they used to be in the UK airports too but the Brits kicked them out - something to with 'sovereignty'! ------------------ $50 per signup at http://www.flashcash.com |
I was talking to my wife's g/f's hubby last weekend, who is Canadian, but dresses like a biker, and has parents who are Fijian
Needless to say he get's quite a hassle going back and forth across the border. He says that usually it's worse for him coming back into Canada from the US ------------------ $$ DIRTY GOLD $$ Revenue Program JackThumbsTGP - - - VideoKAT-ViDeOpOsT - Post Gallieries - - - - - - - Trade Traffic - |
