DEL Property Management Inc. and Wilson Poon, Property Manager, Grace Lee, former Assistant Property Manager and their contractors harassed and made fun of me as a single woman, discriminated against me and scammed my family and me by not allowing various couriers like Canada Post, FEDEX, UPS, Purolator, small individual courier companies, and even my parents one time into the TRIDEL built building. I purchased my unit from Tridel. Security at the gatehouse would tell the delivery people that no such and such person(s) lived here. The parcels would be marked unknown and returned to the sender. My family and I have won over $22,000- in contest prizes over a year ago. Imagine what the Sponsors are thinking when they receive the parcels back as unknown. We lost our prizes for good. We also ordered things and had the things returned back to the sender as unknown too. I complained to Mr. Poon and Ms. Lee and they stated that security only lets delivery people in to deliver for the owner only just like how they accept parcels for the owner only. Mr. Poon also stated that he does not have to let any delivery people into the building for security reasons because he does not believe that the parcels are paid for. Like who is going to send something out that is not paid for. Mr. Poon said to not tell Del Property Management about the above or else he’ll fabricate another one of his stories about me. I wrote to the President of the Board of our Condo Corporation, Victor Thompson over a year ago. Mr. Thompson said to deal with Property Management over and over again.

I feel so humiliated and harassed right now!

thanks for sharing your online shopping experience with people’s. unfortunately i too have experienced similar online return policy issues with other major stores such as future shop. recently i purchased a diamond wedding band and a diamond pendant from people’s to my surprise they do not issue appraisals for their diamonds unless its a diamond solitute ring usually intended for once in a lifetime engagements. what a crooked way of making people pay an extra $50 for an appraisal.

I went to Popeyes for the first time today…..I will never go back again! The chicken was so greasy the coating was sliding off, they forgot my biscuit ( which I never did get……no napkins were offered ( however the manager did notice and brought me some ) no ketchup etc provided! For a first impression, obviously it a good one! I doubt they will be in business long if this the standard across the board!

I was recently at the Old Navy sore in Saint John NB, and I just wanted to say the service was incredible. I am a 57 year old, hip woman that wants to keep up with fashion. When I go to some stores they blow you off because of your age , not a size 2 etc. My experience there was 5 star. Maxine at the cash was super as was the sales clerk.Happy customer will return again and again. Thank you

I went shopping for green coloured clothing for my daughter for a play she is performing in on Wednesday. She is going to be a frog. It isn’t easy to find that colour for clothing for girls. I bought this one outfit at Winners, because although it had white bottoms, the top was cute and it was green, and I figured she could wear it this summer too, so it wouldn’t be an entire waste of money. Well, shortly after purchasing it, I went into another store and they had green yoga pants and jacket…perfect!! The perfect green too! My baby REALLY cranky at this point, so I sat down to feed her/play with her, and sent hubby back to return the original outfit from Winners, since I no longer needed it. I paid by bank card, not credit or anything. So he comes back, with the bag, and says that they won’t take it back as it was bought on credit. Hubby says “did you get a credit card and not tell me?” He wasn’t angry, but just confused. I look at the receipt and it CLEARLY says on there ‘direct debit purchase - chequing’. So, I go, taking the baby with me who is crying now, but I need to go because they only have a 10 day return policy and I don’t know if I will be back again before that time. So, we go, and I go up to the cash register, and I explain how hubby was just here trying to return, and they wouldn’t because they said it was ‘credit’, but it wasn’t…it was bank payment. So, they instantly get their backs up, say they will call the manager. I said, “no, I just need to go, my baby is fussy, can you please ring it through”. They don’t. They call the manager. She tells me (snotty like) that the reason why they wouldn’t take it from hubby was because it wasn’t the same bank card. I said that we have the same account, and how do they know it’s not? Also, that isn’t what they told hubby. Well, the lady was very rude…rude tone, smirking…this is the manager. So, I said, well, that’s too bad, that isn’t going to work for my family and I can’t see myself purchasing here in the future as hubby returns alot of my purchases. So then the snotty manager FINALLY rings through the return, and she says to me rudely “swipe your card”. I said “I can’t…you have my card” (She is holding it). She tosses/throws it at me. I believe it is just another way to make it hard to return items.

I needed a replacement receipt (or so I thought) for a Moen kitchen faucet I bought at Lowe’s in 2009. Working with my bank I was able to identify the date of purchase and the amount of the receipt. Lowe’s customer care was great at taking my particulars and an image of my receipt was emailed to me in a couple of days. All very professional and courteous. Oh yeah, it turns out that all I had to do was call Moen, tell them which faucet and finish I had and the replacement part was couriered to me immediately and no receipt required and an excellent experience with well trained and knowledgeable staff.

Placed a cash deposit at Dormez-vous Lasalle store, and the sales director said it’s 100% refundable, so I give the money with my trust and without hesitation, but few days later I decided to refund it because friend will give me a second hand nice bed, but Dormez-vous told me they will sign me a check and send to my house, the problem is, I currently don’t have any bank account in Canada so I won’t be ablt to take this check to any bank here, then I asked them to change the name of the check to my husband’s, but they said they can’t change the name which is not the same with the order, I asked the lady how am I going to do?can I take a cash back? she said NO! then ask me to call customer service, but obviously, the representative didn’t give it a shit, customer service want me to ask my husband’s bank to change it for us, and they just don’t want to assist us on this! I was soooo angry, because they were very happy to sell products to customers, but when it comes with some problems, they just leave it! how rediculous…can’t believe such a stupid policy comes from such a reputative company! Is $100 dollars a BIG problem for Dormez-vous? then why they didn’t mention there’ll be these problems before customers pay deposits? I am waiting for the returning call from their supervisor, didn’t know what they are going to say, at least something helpful…pray pray.

I would surely like to know is this the way customers r treated in quiznos.

After having purchased a fridge and stove which lasted about 20 years and a washer and dryer that lasted 30 years from Sears, I once again trusted the Kenmore brand and bought a new fridge, washer and dryer. So far the dryer is the only decent purchase. After 2 years I have paid over $300 to fix my fridge plus another $300 for the extended warranty. My washing machine works on only one of the 4 cycles it has but I won’t have Sears in to fix it, I’ll use a local repairman. I tried to get help from their head office but no luck. Pretty bad when you spend all that money and they make you feel like an idiot for not purchasing the extended warranty. What happened to pride of product?

By Andrea

We had built a new house in December of 2007 and purchased all brand new appliances from sears,in total there was $12,000.00. The first year the computer went on our dryer and we had to get a service call for our dishwasher. Between the 2 1/2 - 4 year mark our self clean on our oven does not work, microwave doesn’t work at all, our washer needs servicing as well plus after having our de-humidifier a little over a year it doesn’t work either. Calling customer service has not gotten me anywhere. I have told alot of people about our appliances and suggested never get kenmore elite products and not from sears. When I told then my problem they basically said oh well out of warranty. I totally agree with them if it was one product but when you have 6 out 7 products that have issues then there is a problem. I think I have talked and e-mail 5 people with only one of them who agreed with me regarding what u felt was fair in rectifying the problems. I’m asking for sears to send a repair person out and fix the problems at no charge. I’ve been in customer service for over 20 years and I don’t feel this is unreasonable.

Like many Canadian consumers, I recall that Sears Canada was once one of the very best appliance retailers in the marketplace. They stood behind their products, provided consistently reliable customer service and behaved like true long-term partners to generations of my family that bought appliances - and many other consumer goods - there.

Now, that once proud brand name has degraded to a pathetic joke, weaseling out of warranties, employing a bunch of incompetent service technicians, nickel and diming its long-term, loyal customers and treating complaints about shoddy service as an imposition on their time.

This once proud company is dying and it’s time for all of us to accept that and abandon this brand. There are new players out there, ready and willing to serve us with respect, courtesy and attention.

I PURCHASED AN LG DISHWASHER BACK IN OCTOBER 2010 AND IT’S STILL UNDER WARRANTY (Good thing!!)

3 TIMES THIS DISHWASHER HAS LEAKED WHILE DOING IT’S CYCLE AND HAS DAMAGED MY KITCHEN FLOOR (LAMINATE AND WATER DO NOT MIX).

1st time we just thought it was due to the way we loaded it (Xmas time)

2nd Time my mom slipped thru it and almost hit her head on the counter (late Feb)

3rd time  I called to your store

I CONTACT THE STORE AND GOT FORWARDED TO SERVICE.

THEY SEND SOMEONE OUT  this person can barely speak english!!. HE STATES THAT THERE IS NO SEAL IN THE DOOR WHICH IS WHY IT’S LEAKING. He has to order a part and it could be several days

I AGAIN CONTACT SERVICE TO FIND OUT HOW THEY PLAN TO REPAIR MY FLOOR and I get the response “send us in some pictures.”

3 DAYS LATER  I again contact service to check on my floor and the response is “oh I have not done anything about it yet.”

PART COMES IN and repair guy now says that he can’t install it until I get the dishwasher moved out.

I contact Beacon Hill (Calgary) store manager to get this dealt with.

She will look into

No they won’t fix my floor - **NOTE . This would not have been damaged if the dishwasher initially came with everything that it was suppose to (why did your installer not check this when they installed it!!)

She will send out another installer to pull the dishwasher out and then we can get the repair guy back here. Once he’s done, we will then have to call the installer back to put the dishwasher back in.

INSTALLER HAD A HELL OF A TIME GETTING THE DISHWASHER IN AND OUT DUE TO THE DAMAGE ON THE FLOOR.

This whole process took 3 weeks to get the dishwasher fixed.

HOWEVER MY FLOOR IS STILL DAMAGED AND REQUIRES FIXING.

THIS SEEMS TO BE A NORMAL BRICK ISSUE and just patch it.

They think they cover themselves with this “so called” warranty that we will put up with the “patch” job and too bad that you have damage - not our problem!!!

L’Oreal Hair Expertise Total Repair 5 (detangling care)

I got a great deal on this product with RCSS sale and coupon.

Beware of using this product on Tile or linoleum floors. The floor becomes VERY slippery with the residue that ends up on the floor.

I went flying (not hurt or anything)and called the company.

Lesson learned. Only use the leave in conditioner on a carpeted floor.

I have been shopping at this place called Price Mart at Marine Way in Burnaby since it opened. However, for the past two years, I been harrassed by this jerk supervisor named Roberto Leon. Everytime I shop in that place he always seems to be following me around the store as if I’m going to steal something. I often take some extra coupons from the shelf and bring in lots of coupons to shop, but that’s about it.

First off, I would never steal from a place I shop at. I don’t want to be a criminal. What am I going to do stick a ham down my pants or place some buns in my shirt. I have always been taught it is wrong to steal.

Whenever I use multiple coupons for items I am purchasing more than 1 of he tells me that I can only use 1 coupon for only 1 item. I am not stacking them. I am simply using 1 coupon per one item. Like, one time I bought 3 jars of pickle and gave 3 coupons, this jerk told me I could only use 1.

Then there was this other time, I used up all my free item coupons from Nestle. He noticed I was getting everything for free, so he makes this remark about that I was basically making a steal on my free things I was getting. He looked them carefully as if I made them or altered them myself.

What really p$$$$$ me off was last Friday night around 10 pm (they closed at 11 pm) when I brought some pop and juice empties for deposit. He was such a jerk that he took his sweet time to come over to count them. I returned 12 cans in the case they can along with 2 loose cans, 6 empty plastic 500mL bottles and 5 - 2L pop bottles. He thought I was trying to trick him by putting less cans in the case, so opened up it up and counted them. He looked at each can carefully. He even ripped me off by only giving me back $1.90 instead of $2.00. I asked him what about the rest of my change. He said that he only counted $1.90 worth of cans and bottles.

After that, I thought I would look for something to eat and maybe get a magazine. The whole time I was shopping this Roberto a@$hole kept following me around as if I was going to steal something. Well I decided to pick out a magazine when he came up from behind me as I was flipping through the magazine. I said to him, ” Look man, I’m going to buy this magazine, okay.” As I was walking around some more, I became really irritated with him so I decided to drop everything I picked up and ditch the place. As I was exiting that place and getting into my car and driving away, that a@#hole Roberto ran out after me as if I stole something, which I swear to God I didn’t. What the Hell. Does this jerk do that to all his other customers?

After this experience, I don’t think I will shop there again. I am curious if any coupon people who have shopped there with lots of coupons has ever experienced such wacko service.

I was thinking of writing a letter to the manager, but I have been told by employees that he is a##hole too.
