I made an appt one week in advance for 3:30 pm. At 4:30 I called and he said he would be coming about 5:00. At 6:00 I called and he said he would be coming and I told him I would pay overtime rates. It was just for one couch. At 7:30 I called and he still said he is coming but he never showed up. He has never called which showed me he had no intention of showing up. read full review »

JGF Marketing
adfrog July 6, 2011
Jean-Guy Francoeur is a scam artist. I have worked for him and seen what he does. He lies and scams people and businesses. He had to leave Ottawa because he was wanted for fraud and stole money from his clients and staff. He had a company called Booming Practice and scammed private practitioners, saying that he was going to do marketing for them and then ended up doing nothing. He refused to pay any of his clients back, even though he never provided any services, and tried scam them into signing contracts saying that they couldn't say... read full review »

After buying a dealfind voucher. This comapny has a very hard time honoring their committment. They double book themselves or do not show up at all. Once they do show up their quality of work is very poor. Extremely dissapointed that Deal find would allow a company of such to be a part of their services. DO NOT USE. read full review »

Tman1980 July 6, 2011
On May 24, 2011 I brought my 2002 Grand AM to the active green and ross location at 2115 sheppard ave east. I brought my car in for a simple 24.95 oil change. During the oil change, the guy at the desk comes back into the waiting room from the garage and tells me that my brakes appear to be seized. I told him immediately that there was NOTHING wrong with my brakes. My brakes were done about a year and a half earlier, both front and back, full calipers, rotors and pads. There was no rubbing, vibration, noise, reduced gas mileage or otherwise... read full review »

With Purpose Wellness Centre
Scares July 6, 2011
I strongly advise everyone to stay away from Marishu Fehr at the With Purpose Wellness Centre. She claims to have a degree in psychology, child psychology and life coaching. She won the lottery and opened up a "wellness centre" which she uses to "help" people she likes without a liscence. If she doesn't like you she will defamate your character to other clients who also know you. She may or may not have credentials, but in my experience she is scandalous and devious. She is, in my opinion, more interested in filling up her ego than actually life coaching. read full review »

Cheapoair website
baedaebok July 6, 2011
I suspect www.cheapoair.ca/com uses bait & switch in their pricing policy. Here's my story: 1) I was surfing the net looking for cheap tickets for my family (son, husband, me) to fly. 2) After 2 hours surfing, I came across www.cheapoair.ca. They offered a $4400 fare for my family flight (most other websites were around $6000). 3) I tried to book it several times with my credit card but it always rejected it and said "Use valid credit card". My credit card had worked earlier in a different merchant. 4) I used the... read full review »

Buytopia/The Butchers Voucher
TrishinToronto July 5, 2011
I purchased 2 vouchers in April 2011 for $198 which was to allow me $400 in products from The Butchers on Yonge/Eglinton. Apparently both Buytopia and The Butchers bit off more than they could chew as The Butchers staff were being verbally and physically abused by angry customers. They continuously changed the details in the voucher, i.e: when people could shop, the store hours and the availability of their products. I have attempted on at least 4 occasions to get a refund from Buytopia and was told that they had to contact The Butchers and... read full review »

Fun Mobility Products
gengiskhan July 5, 2011
I had an electric motor installed on my brand new 26 speed bike by Fun Mobility Products. When I went to pick it up, the back brake didn't work any more. The owner of the business told me I would have to take it to a bike repair shop to get it fixed. So I'm supposed to pay somebody else to fix something he messed up? I later found out that, without my knowledge or consent, he had kept the back wheel of my new bike, an item worth over $200 which he refuses to replace. Do not deal with this business unless you like incompetence and dishonesty. read full review »

BionX
gengiskhan July 5, 2011
I had a Bionx electric motor fitted to my bicycle. I was told at the time that the battery would last about five years. The motor burned out after less than three years of light use and the battery was dead after about the same amount of time even though it had been looked after very carefully according to the instructions. It was going to cost $1700 to get the motor fixed and a new battery was priced at $1400. This is a terrible company to deal with. Their products are shoddy and grossly overpriced and their customer service does not exist. Do not buy anything from BionX. read full review »

Three years ago, I closed one of my accounts with Toronto Dominion Bank. They kept mailing me statements saying I had zero balance.

Then my so-called financial advisor failed to call me when he said he would.

TRAVELONLY
honesttravel July 5, 2011
This company recruits Travel Consultants and charges a "franchise" fee to start working as a Travel Agent. They charged me over $2000 for a startup fee plus over $100 monthly "support" fees. If you are considering a career as a Travel Agent, PLEASE DO NOT considering becoming a home based agent through TRAVELONLY. No other Travel Companies charge fees for being an outside agent. The first step is to become TICO Registered which costs approx $35. From there, many other companies will work with you and give you the same comission that Travelonly boasts about.

SEARS Nelson, BC
Tyhlor Kahret July 4, 2011
Sears store in Nelson has a very poor customer service. The owner and the staff do not have a helpful attitude. It is more like "whatever, I do not care". We asked the owner of the store (manager) for an advertised product to be ordered (as they didn't have it in store) and he said he will place the order tomorrow, a s he is too busy that day. We assumed that this means that we will get the advertised in the flyer price, but we will wrong. Next day, the owner said that the price is higher as the sale is over. It was very suprising... read full review »

I bought a diamond heart necklace for my girlfriend for X mas 2010, then the chain broke in june 2011. I took it in and they sent it away to be fixed for $35 (I did not purchase the protection plan as I did not think that such an expensive necklace would break so soon). Upon getting it back, it broke again in the same place not a week later. When I took it back in they said that it was a new break and that the chain was cheap. Admitting they sell a cheap chain? Come on! They offered to sell me a protection plan at full price so that "she... read full review »

Wendy's Frostys
bcgirlcanada July 2, 2011
Just spoke to a Wendy's Canada employee on the telephone after I submitted a complaint through their website. In Canada, they have dropped the sizes of the Frostys, yet kept the prices the same. Effectively, the bottom line is that this move by Wendy's is a price increase. I don't know if this has happened in the USA. The medium sized ones were 16 oz and now they are 12 oz. Same price of $1.89. I'll never buy Frostys again. A carton of ice cream from the grocery store will do. What a rip off! read full review »

None exist in this part of the world and only one or two others in the rest of CAnada or Washington state. There is one, one only LA. So why the relentless barrage of very expensive TV ads here?

The Rental Guide
Juniperberry June 30, 2011
They steal housing listings from free classified sites like Craigslist, Kijiji, local newspapers and so on, dump them into a database, and charge apartment hunters $100 ($75 in Victoria BC) to search this database for a couple of months. Rental Guide does NOT ask permission of any of the landlords and property management companies who originally posted the ads on free sites. That might not be illegal, but it's definitely unethical, and goes against the TOS of all the free classified sites they steal from. Even worse, they then... read full review »
