By linda friars

I BOUGHT A BULB FOR MY TRUCK.THE GIRL LOOKED IT UP; OH YES THIS IS IT SHE SAID. I SAID ARE YOU SURE AS I HAD OTHER PROBLEMS IN THE PAST. BUT MY HUSBAND SAID TO GO THERE, WHEN I WENT TO THE GARAGE TO HAVE IT INSTALLED GUESS WHAT WRONG BULB. I SAID OH NO IT CANT BE. OH YES IT IS HE SAID. SO I ASKED DO YOU HAVE ANY HERE WHICH THEY DID, SO AWAY I WENT HAPPY WITH MY RIGHT BULB. BUT MAD AS A HORNET AT CANADIAN TIRE. TO BUSY FOR AWHILE TO RETURN THE BULB AND OF COARSE NO RECIEPT. I WENT BACK LATER. WHAT A TIME HOW DID YOU PAY FOR IT ECT? NO CAN NOT DO ANYTHING. WELL DONE TO THE MANAGER HE IS BUSY. ASSISTANT ON THE PHONE. SO I SAID WELL IT IS NO GOOD TO ME SO YOU CAN HAVE IT.OH WE CAN NOT DO THAT.WELL HERE IS MY PHONE NU. AND NAME MAYBE SOMEONE CAN CALL BE. WELL GUESS WHAT THEY MUST HAVE NEEDED THE BULB I HAVE NEVER HEARD BACK. BUT THAT IS FINE I WILL NEVER ENTER OR BUY FROM CANADIAN TIRE AGAIN.. I AM SURE THERE IS OTHER STORES THAT WANT MY MONEY.THEY ALL SHOULD TAKE A LESSON FROM WA

Kenmore Washing Machine

By Tammy

I purchased a Kenmore Washing machine 14 months ago and it is broke. I now have to find a repair man to come in and hope it is fixable. If not, more money out. What a piece of junk. Never buy Kenmore again. Cheap, Cheap, Cheap

Problem at Canadian Tire

By tallfrenchman

hello,
It started out by ordering tires at ct and they screw up on the order…so they started again by placing the order again but this time for 4 tires 315/75/16 and they were back ordered 4 to6 weeks…so I waited…they finally come in…so they mounted them on my rims and I asked them to do a wheel alignment…and I needed 2 bolt joint and got everything installed when they finally came in…cause they only had 1 side…but I got everything done the same day..but I had to wait for the parts…so I was ok with it…
I got the bill $1497.00 so I paid it with my ct master card and I went home….and 3 days later she calls to tell me I didn’t pay the bill and I said I sure did and I faxed the bill to ct tire and never heard nothing until 3 months later telling…theres was mistake and I had to go ct and pay a $98 more a tire…so I went and told her I wasn’t gonna be the difference so she took off to get the manger…and he started telling I knew the prize when I order them and I said yes but someone made the mistake at ct and charge me for 245/75/16 the size I had on before…it’s there mistake…and we argued in front of the parts counter…in front of other workers and other clients…I was pissed off…and I told him I’m not paying the difference and it’s final and he told me I had stolen from him $400 in front of other people…he should of took me to an office to talk about the matter and as far as I’m concerned I paid the bill when I walked out 3 months ago … when I got the
tires installed…and the manger told me to not visit his store again…well I live in Hearst so I guess I will take my money else where to other business who will gladly take it and I can go to Canadian Tire Kapuskasing if I really need something that bad…lmao
oh well it was Canadian Tire’s turn to get screwed this time and not the consumer getting screwed…over and over like I see on this site.. just had to shared this experience…

Crabby Joe’s in Strathroy

By S. Mc

This happened on April 2/11. My family and I went for lunch. I decided to visit the washroom. My foot slipped right out from under me and I fell. I not only hurt both wrists, cut my knee, but I fractured my arm. The waitress saw me and offered to get me a band aid for my bleeding knee. I emailed the restaurant about this incident and they did offer to have my coat dry cleaned as it was all grease along the bottom from my fall. My gripe…..no one even offered to give me a free meal! I even contacted head office, and they didn’t offer anything to me either. After about 8 weeks of recovery time, my arm did heal successfully. But I will never go to this establishment again.

Worst Customer Service Ever at Home Depot Markham

By muffins

a few weeks ago i went to this homedepot on markham rd near buroak to get some flashlights that were on the flyers. i browsed the whole store looking for it and couldn’t find it so i went to ask a lady for some assistance. she couldn’t find it either so she called up or supervisor for help and they were looking for it cause they were walking around the whole store and they told me to just wait a while. after waiting for 15 mins i walk over to the next aisle to find that the lady that was helping me wasn’t looking for the flashlight but was helping someone else and i also found her supervisor just sitting in the entrance area doing nothing…. i was infuriated so i left the store but while i was leaving i saw the other lady going on a break…never going to that store again.

Problem With Beyond the Rack

By Shanns

I just received my purchase from Beyond the Rack. I purchased a set of three “Heys USA” suitcases. To my surprise they shipped me the exact suitcases that were pictured on the website HOWEVER they are not “Heys USA” they are “Travel Concepts”. I have never heard of “Travel Concepts” and from the looks of it didn’t actually get that great of a deal on them. I have emailed Beyond the Rack for them to explain this to me. We will see what happens :)

Greasyhooks.com is a Great Website

By Sporty5

I’ve been using a website recommended to me by a friend at work. Its www.greasyhooks.com , They specialize in Gadgets, almost everything you can think of plus more. I bought some electric cigarettes, the shipping was alittle slow but they arrived and the price is the best on the internet for most of their products. I’m a bit of cheapskate, so I do alot of comparing,. Only 3.99 Shipping too. Anyway, I thought I would put in a recommendation. Check it out.

SPC Card Denied Everywhere

By wineshding

I bought the SPC card under the impression that it would procure discounts and pay itself off. However, my experience has been less than ideal.

In the past two weeks, I have been denied the discounts as written in the brochure set with the card, at multiple businesses, even when I show them the supposed discounts they said they would offer through SPC: including:

Teriyaki Experience

33 Heritage Meadows Way SE, Calgary AB

Spring Shoes

501 1 Ave S, Lethbridge, AB

American Eagle Outfitters

Chinook Centre, 655 Macleod Trail SW, Calgary, AB

Jacob

Chinook Centre, 6455 MacLeod Trail S.W. Calgary

I understand that different locations can set different standards for their discounts but to have been denied from all these locations seems like deceptive advertising to me. I even showed them the printed brochure at all these places and they all treated me like I was student-garbage.

Why bother going to these places if there is no real incentive, even with the card that’s supposedly tailored for students? Lies, very rude.
