I work in a pub.
There's nothing I love more than someone ranting at me about the price of their drinks.
I have full control of the price of drinks, and as I am so well-paid, it actually amuses me to be 'told off'. I then hike up the prices again and give myself another pay-rise.

Leave till monkeys alone, people!

I had the other way around
Bought some drinks, was told the price and the barstaff immediately apologised to me for how steep it was before I'd said a word. £18 for 2 double gin and tonics is a kick in the nuts.

I do warn people.
Sometimes they think all of our spirits are on a doubles bar, and they're about to get a double JD and coke, so I'll say "That's going to be nearly a fiver you know..." and then they either drop to a single or get a house double.

This was the house gin (well, Gordons)
A pint of Stella is £4.50 at this bar, which is the only place that has bands on in my town. My friend's band were playing, so we were somewhat obliged to go. Diet coke from then on though.

I generally don't think to complain
I think I should more often in fact.

I forgot to complain to Tony and Guy
and it's too late now

There are lods of things I forget to complain about, because I'll be indignant for about four days then get bothered about something else.
if a person in customer service is tangibly rude or unhelpful, they'll cop it, but anything to do with policy or the overall service, you're wasting your breath.

Even most landlords don't really have a choice what to charge - PubCo's and HMRC have much more input.
