Being overcharged $500 on purpose by the club's host on your bottle tab is the last thing one would expect while celebrating their 30th birthday with friends. A last minute idea to party at 1Oak to bring in my bday turned out to be a mistake I'll never forget. Prior to purchasing bottle service, I spoke with the club's host, Kevin Houck, outside and was quoted $600 after gratuity and taxes. Afterwards, I got a bill for $100 extra than the amount previously quoted. To make matters worse, Kevin promised me that the 2 remaining members in my party would be granted admittance upon their arrival several minutes later. We had small talk and found out him and I were both from Maryland as he stated, "Oh just write down their names here and let them show me their Maryland ID's when they get here and I'll know they're with you. This was not the case. I spent half an hour going back and forth to the front door trying to get them in rather than enjoying my 30th. When questioned about them getting in, he simply lied and said he never said that.
I say Kevin overcharged me on purpose because they sent in a copy of a form every bottle service customer signs upon entrance, indicating that the individual understands that table service will be at a minimum of $500, no less. They sent this form to my bank upon dispute in an attempt to falsely accuse me of agreeing to pay an additional $500 on top of the bottle cost, tax and gratuity fees. I've attached photos of bank statement and receipt copies below. AWFUL AWFUL EXPERIENCE.
When going to 1OAK LA be sure to dress very well because the bouncers are finicky and will allow or deny your entry based on how you look and come across. One inside gorgeous big room nightclub that keeps the hip hop spinning. Drinks are automatically upsized. Not bad..
Thankfully, my bank read through the nonsense and the lies and I was refunded the $500, but not without a valuable lesson learned. I've been to the Vegas 1 Oak prior to moving to California and had no issues but at this time I will NEVER EVER EVER step foot in another 1Oak, nor will my friends or family. They will not get a single dollar from us or anyone we know. I advise anyone with any sense to stay away from this establishment as they are crooks and on top of that, hassle minorities upon entrance IF they even let you in. Lesson learned, taking our money elsewhere! Sidenote, there's this thing in life called Karma.
The rudest club ever. When they don't have enough people at the club they serve you well but when they are crowded they will blatantly turn they faces. They start being rude because they do not have proper resource to handle the demands of customers and guests. It's ridiculous. I'm not paying them to forget to letting my friends come in and gotta come out to pick them up. It's exhausting having a group hang at this venue. I would go to Bootsy Bellows or The Avenue, way better experiences. The music is better there for sure too.
Well staffed, nice ladies everytime tues or saturday i have gone and plenty of air flow, with restrooms downstairs.
I woke up Monday morning for work, checked my online bank account and found I had been charged for an additional $500, increasing my charge to $1,200 rather than $700. I called 1Oak and they stated they do not issue refunds and that I should take it up with my bank.
Finally, when I got my tan and asked why the amount on the receipt was $100 extra than the $600 quote at the door (after taxes and gratuity), he once again lied and stated that he never gave a quote. I then requested to speak to his manager. He became very hostile, raising his voice and became argumentative. Of course he denied everything upon his manager's arrival. I paid and left to go home that Saturday night.
Me & group of 8 ppls of black girls. Didn't get in the club. I guess it's true they discriminate. Oh by the way the security couldn't let us in because it's a private PARTY. Clearly they still letting ppls in the club that's wasn't invite
